castles for sale Chalons-en-champagne, France

A listed castle, once belonging to the Joyeuse counts, in 7 ha of parklands 2½ hours from Paris and Brussels in a region known as Argonne-Ardennaise. The geographic location of Grandpré castle, standing on a rocky spur, was already an advantage in medieval times. In a dominant position, looking out over the Argonne region towards the roads through the Champagne countryside, it was one of the border areas essential to the young kingdom of France. The county, divided since the Crusades, was gradually reunited until it fell into the hands of a powerful character, Louis-de-Joyeuse, chamberlain at the court of Louis XII. Supporter of the Catholic League, his heir, Claude-de-Joyeuse, amassed spoils and fortune in the 17th century, thus enabling him to embellish the estate and leave his mark on the surrounding buildings: the church and other buildings necessary to the inhabitants of the county. Distinguishing themselves from many of their contemporaries, the Joyeuse counts made their mark through military careers (Marshals of France and Lieutenant-Generals of the king’s armies) and followed Louis XIV. It was during 1685 that major works were carried out (large appartements, stables, etc.) and financed courtesy of the titles and offices acquired by members of the Joyeuses family following their military successes during the Wars of Spanish Succession around 1700. Marriages arranged with the large families in the Champagne region did the rest. However, despite a well-founded land heritage, lineage strategies proved too fragile and the estate gradually became divided in the 18th century. Furthermore, the estate was little occupied prior to the fall of the monarchy in 1792. It was requisitioned by General-Dumouriez, a famous republican hero following the Valmy victory against the Austrians. He settled his general quarters there prior to it becoming a hospital set up for the revolutionary armies. Despite a token show of renovation under the First Empire and during the Restoration era, a lack of constant upkeep led to a fire that started in the gatehouse and the destruction of the castle in 1834. Only one pavilion was restored, it now forms the current castle. An outstanding collection of outbuildings align the street going up the hill. A monumental pavilion, in a central recess, provides access to the outbuilding courtyard. The castle and its parklands are then reached by passing under the semi-circular arched porchway of the gatehouse.

An elegant, 18th century, listed residence in the Champagne-Lorraine region. This property is in the centre of a little town in a small attractive valley with infant and junior schools, a grocery as well as a bakery. Although standing on the corner of two little used streets, an impression of peace and quiet prevails in this small dynamic village. The property is enclosed by stone walls and opens on to the street via its tall wrought iron gates. It comprises a main courtyard with an orangery at the front and overlooks an L-shaped garden with a swimming pool at the back. Immaculately kept, this romantic garden features a statue, stone benches and a sun dial as well as splashes of colour provided by the wisteria and the flower beds. The orangery dates from the 19th century. Destined for destruction, it came from another property and currently partially conceals the neighbour’s ugly wall.

On the edge of the Étrépilly valley, along the traces of the Battle of the Marne, Château de Saint-Faron embodies nearly a thousand years of French history, from the monastic lands granted by Lord Simon d'Oisy to the Abbey of Meaux in the 12th century, to the characterful residence it is today. The main building dates back to the late 17th century, as evidenced by its original timber framework. It was transformed into a true château in the early 19th century by Ernest-Philippe Foucher, a Parisian notary who became mayor of the 9th arrondissement of Paris and was known there by the courtesy title of "Comte Foucher de Saint Faron." He is responsible for the tower built in the 17th-century style, as well as the "Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes de Saint-Faron" chapel, consecrated in 1884 following an event that remains part of local memory as the "miracle of Saint-Faron." The residence also bears older traces of history: two cannonballs, fired in 1814 during the retreat of the French Campaign, are still lodged in the north façade. Requisitioned by the German army in 1914 during the Battle of the Marne, the château lived through both World Wars. Carefully restored since the mid-20th century, and lived in as a primary residence by the same family since 1997, the château now offers all modern comforts without losing any of its soul. Ground floor: an entrance hall with cloakroom, a large reception living room with fireplace, a music room, a study, a double fitted kitchen, a veranda-dining room with underfloor heating, a chapel, and two toilets. Basement: a storeroom, a wine cellar, a boiler room, and a pellet storage area. First floor: three suites with bathrooms, two adjoining bedrooms, a bedroom with boudoir, a large games room, a study, a shower room with toilet, and a separate toilet. Second floor: a large convertible attic of approximately 200sqm. Grounds and outbuildings: a vast landscaped and wooded park of approximately 1.9 hectares with a swimming pool, religious statues, and a stone calvary — remnants of the processional paths created in the 19th century. A storage building with attic of approximately 25sqm, a large, enclosed and insulated garage connected to water and electricity of approximately 80 m², as well as a workshop of approximately 15sqm. Technical features: two pellet boilers sized to heat the entire house, including the attic to be converted, along with domestic hot water, heating, and the swimming pool. A lived-in and well-maintained château, where the history of France can be read in its stones as much as in its archives. Located less than 20 minutes from Meaux, 30 minutes from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport and Disneyland Paris, and 1 hour 10 minutes from Paris, this property offers multiple possibilities in a very peaceful setting.
