A noble Renaissance-era dwelling, its holiday cottage and outbuildings in a 2-hectare enclosed park overlooking the valley, within the Périgord Blanc region. Dating from the 15th, 16th and 18th centuries, the property stands on a hillside, protected by woodlands to the south and overlooking the valley to the north and west. The high north end walls of the main edifice, with sparse openings, the buttresses and the round tower of the current guest house testify to the fact that this was once a fortified castle. A tree-lined driveway leads from the entrance gate to the noble residence, while a track running alongside the tennis court meets the outbuildings and a swimming pool at the bottom of a slope. A barely visible lap pool is perfectly embedded in the park surrounding the complex. The residence is framed by two enclosed spaces, each offering a breathtaking view: the courtyard where the main entrance is located, a well topped by a pyramid-shaped roof, an outbuilding used as a garden shed, a hangar for vehicles, as well as a pool facing a low pilaster and dressed stone wall. All of these are accessed via a carriage gate, a pedestrian gate and a recently installed gate. On the other side of the residence, the lawned garden with bountiful flowers features a summer dining area under a covered patio.

Just 20 minutes from Bordeaux, in the heart of the prestigious Pessac-Léognan appellation, this 19th-century château embodies the timeless elegance of Bordeaux’s grand estates. Nestled within 2.8 hectares of preserved grounds, this rare property offers an exceptional lifestyle surrounded by landscaped parkland, organic vineyards, and absolute tranquility. Steeped in history, the château is part of Léognan’s emblematic heritage and retains all the nobility of its stone architecture and slate roof. Fully restored, the property offers approximately 623 m² of living space with remarkable volumes throughout. From the moment you enter, the light-filled reception rooms open generously onto the park. The ground floor features a spacious and welcoming eat-in kitchen as well as a ground-floor suite. The upper floors comprise 5 suites and 2 additional bedrooms, offering ideal comfort for a large family residence or a refined hospitality project. Noble materials, impressive ceiling heights, and the charm of period architecture have been beautifully preserved while incorporating modern comfort and amenities. The property also benefits from several outbuildings and ancillary spaces offering exceptional potential. At the rear of the château, a one-bedroom annex apartment (T2), entirely in need of renovation, could become an independent guest apartment, caretaker’s house, office space, or premium rental accommodation. The full basement already includes an office with waiting room, a workshop, and a wine cellar with direct access to the garden. These spaces are perfectly suited for professional use, artistic activities, a wellness area, or private tasting lounges. In addition, the recently renovated and elevated roof structure reveals an impressive attic level of more than 125 m² ready to be converted. Additional suites, an independent apartment, reception areas, or an exclusive wine tourism project could easily be envisioned. Outside, the landscaped grounds feature century-old magnolia trees, a swimming pool, and one hectare classified under the prestigious AOC Pessac-Léognan designation, suitable for confidential vineyard cultivation. Peacefully set with no close neighbors and only minutes from local amenities, the estate enjoys a location that is both discreet and highly accessible. The château also offers rare technical features for a historic property: air conditioning, heat pump system, recent gas condensing boiler, three independent access points, and parking for more than 10 vehicles. Its excellent energy performance rating of C is a remarkable asset for a residence dating from before 1948. Perfectly suited as a prestigious family estate, the property also lends itself beautifully to luxury guest accommodation, private events, wine tourism experiences, or exclusive retreats. Thanks to its strategic location between Bordeaux and Arcachon, and depending on the chosen business model (luxury seasonal rentals, private events, wine tourism, or guest house activity), additional annual income potential could reasonably be estimated between €60,000 and €150,000. What we particularly love: the unique history of the estate, the authentic 19th-century character, the elegance of the volumes, and the rare feeling of living in a confidential château surrounded by vineyards just moments from Bordeaux.

Dating back to 1547, the Château has grown over the centuries according to the needs of the families who have had the joy of living here. Situated up on high, in a peaceful haven, the chateau looks down over neatly lawned gardens and woodland. Flanking the building from the rear is a prehistoric rockface; a feature of the landscape since time immemorial when dinosaurs roamed the land. The Chateau faces south, where between the branches of the trees and across the valley, modern life beckons from afar, with the distant outline of AGEN etched onto the horizon. This juxtaposition of bucolic splendour coupled with the proximity of city life creates much of the inherent magic of this property. The gardens, and landscape immediately around the property have conspired for centuries to provide an utterly idyllic and bucolic retreat from the world with the promise of urban life across the valley. It takes a moment to adjust one’s thoughts to the fact that the shops, cinemas, theatres, and schools of Agen are a short drive away. In layman’s terms, one can pop out and seek a baguette or bottle of wine in almost the same amount of time as it might take to walk to the tower at the far end of the garden and back again. The position, is in a word magnificent. Magnificent and unexpected. The word château can often be misleading. If “Chateau” conjures images of medieval drafts, and chill stone floors, then rest assured that none of the grace and beauty associated with a chateau has been sacrificed in the name of comfort, and yet this property is decidedly “comfortable”, modern and in full working order. For home-seekers who dream of living in aesthetically pleasing historical buildings you will not be disappointed. None of the restorations carried out have removed an iota of the château’s charm. A walk in the grounds throws up delightful views of this architectural beauty from every angle. In the grounds of the château it is easy to take a sumptuous photograph, because from every angle; be it in the garden, the pool, the chapel or the tower, the Château has a grace and elegance which is entirely photogenic. From the outside it is impossible to imagine the level of comfort within. Inside is a very different story. Stone walls, high ceilings, and characterful fireplaces can be found. But you will also find five star comfort and modernity. Look no further than the C grade rating on the energy efficiency scale. In part due to the thick walls, but also due to the current owners love of houses that “work” and where the management of a substantial building such as this one might be made as easy possible. Restored throughout the property was used as a luxury family home with chambres d’hôtes since 2011, ceasing its very successful business just a couple of years ago. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The information relating to the property, including but not limited to its surface area, condition, features and technical equipment (including, without limitation: heating systems, electrical installations, plumbing, drainage, swimming pool, security systems, and any other equipment), is provided for information purposes only, based on the elements and statements supplied by the seller.

Steeped in history, this château has been in the same family for over two centuries. Its origins date back to the late 18th century, and it still retains the architectural foundations of that era, bearing witness to its authenticity and timeless character. This elegant, characterful residence features a perfectly symmetrical, neoclassically inspired classical architectural style, spread over two main floors. The main façade, laid out with precision, is distinguished by its central axis marked by a semi-circular arched entrance door, flanked by niches and surmounted by a gently curved pediment. The whole is punctuated by large vertical openings, harmoniously aligned, some adorned with stone balustrades forming small balconies, adding depth and refinement to the composition. The façades are constructed from local blonde stone, lending the whole building a sense of grandeur and a beautiful luminosity. The corner string courses, window surrounds and decorative elements highlight the quality of the construction. The gently sloping, tiled roof is discreetly enlivened by stone chimneys, reinforcing the building’s authentic character. The rear façade, opening onto the park, follows the same architectural principles with a balanced composition and a pleasing regularity of openings. It benefits from a direct connection to the outdoor spaces, offering an unobstructed view of the wooded park and the landscaping. The whole exudes an air of elegant simplicity and harmony, typical of residences from the late 18th and 19th centuries, where balanced proportions and the quality of materials take precedence over excessive ornamentation.
