Ref.4905 : Elegant 18th-C. Chateau in the Brenne region of Berry, featuring guesthouses and stables This elegant property is located three and a half hours from the capital, in the heart of the Brenne, the “Land of a Thousand Ponds.” The Brenne is a natural region renowned for its unspoiled wilderness and exceptional biodiversity, designated as a Regional Nature Park. This region offers a wide range of opportunities for relaxation and exploration. Birdwatchers come from all over the world to observe waterfowl and migratory birds, while hikers, cyclists, and horseback riders enjoy the trails winding through the ponds. Hunting enthusiasts also find ideal terrain here, provided they practice responsible hunting. La Brenne is not only a nature reserve but also a vibrant region where nature and human activity have coexisted in harmony for centuries. It is an area known for livestock farming and fish farming, whose products are integral to the local cuisine. In this regard, the Michelin-starred Maison Dallais (La Promenade restaurant) is just thirty minutes away. In this area of scattered settlements, the property, nestled in its own grounds on the edge of a hamlet, enjoys absolute tranquility just three and a half hours from Paris. Nearby, just a few minutes from the château, lies Le Blanc, a charming little town with all the necessary shops and services. Just a little further on, in the beautiful Creuse Valley, Fontgombault Abbey is home to a vibrant Benedictine community. And less than thirty minutes away, heading toward Poitou, lies the spa town of La Roche-Posay, whose waters treat the most common skin conditions. The world-famous cosmetics of the same name are produced there. Poitiers, a major regional, university, and commercial city, is the area’s main hub. It’s just over an hour away. The orientation of the house has no doubt changed over time, as it is likely that the main entrance was previously through what is now the park. Indeed, the five-bay façade on this side has been given a more prestigious treatment than its counterpart on the courtyard side. Two ornate bossages, imitating columns, frame a magnified central bay. On the ground floor, the jambs of the entrance bay take the form of fluted columns supporting a fine lintel with a crenellated cornice. One storey above, the window lintel is decorated with a similar entablature, whilst two storeys higher, a monumental dormer with a pediment and wings emphasises this ostentatious centrality. The other openings and dormer windows on this façade, with similar but simpler decoration, create a sense of alignment emphasised by a simple string course, whilst marking the boundary between the residential storeys. In contrast, the addition of a projecting section in the early 20th-C. transformed the courtyard façade—with its three bays and simplified decoration—into the main façade. At the base, a flared plinth followed by three wide steps leads the visitor to an entrance, where a flat bossage frames the two levels of windows with arched lintels, separated by a lintel in the form of an inverted entablature. Through this entrance, one enters a beautiful, very light-filled hall, providing access to the various rooms on the ground floor. To the left, a corridor leads to a small bathroom with a toilet. In the centre, it opens onto the dining room via a connecting door, aligned with the exit to the grounds. Through this double-length room, which acts as a hub connecting all the spaces, you reach the large sitting room with a beautiful Empire-style fireplace and a herringbone parquet floor, another smaller sitting room followed by a pantry, and the park. Finally, to the right of the entrance hall, a long corridor passes the staircase to reach the large kitchen with a monumental fireplace, an indoor water well and a service entrance leading to the courtyard or the park. On the first floor, the first half-level comprises two bedrooms and a bathroom. The next half-level is organised around a long, light-coloured wooden corridor, in the 18th-C. style, which leads to three bedrooms and a study on the right, and a bedroom with a shower on the left. The latter is situated in the front section of the house, above the entrance hall. As shown on the plan, the first bedroom on the right has an en-suite bathroom, the second has a separate toilet, and the third has a shower room. Walk-in wardrobes have been fitted within the thickness of the walls. On the second floor, in the attic, the floor previously reserved for staff remains to be converted. The total living area is approximately 400 sqm. In the attic, the former servants’ quarters cover a total area of 134 sqm. The property comprises two main outbuildings: two wings of outbuildings flanking the main house. In the left-hand wing, there are four garages with a large loft space above, as well as a holiday cottage on two levels covering approximately 70 sqm. This cottage features a large living room with a fireplace, a kitchenette and a shower, and two bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower. Outside, a private terrace, an outdoor seating area and a barbecue area complete the property. In the right-hand wing is a large and beautiful old stable block with five stalls and three separate brood mares’ stalls. There is also a 140 sqm gîte on two levels, in need of restoration. Beneath this wing is a cellar housing the main house’s boiler room, its water tank and a utility room. The other outbuildings include the old, empty towers, a pole shed, a building known as a ‘bergerie’ (sheepfold) now used as a storeroom, and several small roofed structures. The grounds, covering an area of 5.3 acres, surround the property on three sides. At the rear of each wing, a meadow provides the necessary open space, whilst the wooded park, which features some fine trees and charming, shady groves, extends its green space to the west of the property.

Réf. 4661 : Monumental castellan ensemble in Berry, near a renowned sanctuary In the historic province of Berry, within the Indre département, we present an impressive castellated ensemble located at the meeting point of two distinct natural regions: the Champagne Berrichonne and the Boischaut Nord. The former is a gently undulating landscape of open plains dedicated to cereal cultivation, stretching between the Indre and Cher départements. The latter, with more pronounced relief, is characterised by woodlands and hedgerows, interspersed with streams feeding into the nearby River Indre. Paris lies 280 km to the north, and Tours less than 100 km away. Châteauroux, the local administrative centre, is under 30 km from the estate and offers all the amenities and services of a mid-sized town, including a station on the Paris–Toulouse rail line and access to the A20 motorway. For day-to-day needs, the small town of Buzançais is less than a ten-minute drive. The region also enjoys considerable appeal from a tourism perspective. The Val de l’Indre Golf Course is just 11 km away, while the Brenne Regional Nature Park—also known as the Land of a Thousand Lakes—is only slightly further afield. The European Route d’Artagnan, dedicated to equestrian tourism, passes directly by the château, which is fully equipped to accommodate both horses and riders. Most notably, the property lies just minutes from the Marian sanctuary of Pellevoisin. Following a recent decision by the Vatican and a full renovation of its facilities due for completion by 2026, the sanctuary is expected to attract a significant increase in pilgrim visitors in the coming years. The history of the château is closely linked to the Brillac, or Brilhac, family, who are believed to have acquired it through marriage around 1300. At the end of the 15th century, Charles de Brillac, Master of the Household to King Louis XII, rebuilt the old medieval fortress. The new château he had constructed is characteristic of a transitional period. It retains the appearance of a medieval castle with ostentatious military architecture (keep, machicolated towers), while its layout already reflects that of a pleasure residence. Later, from 1636 onwards, another lord of the estate, Jean Phelyppeaux, seigneur of Buzançais and Palluau, added significant outbuildings forming a U-shape around a lower courtyard. Finally, after 1830, the De Lamotte family transformed the château’s south wing into a modern three-storey residence, with floors dedicated respectively to service, reception, and family life. This is how the castle complex appears to us today. The property comprises a group of buildings where the château proper can be distinguished from the outbuildings. The château includes a listed section with a keep and two round towers with conical roofs and a machicolated walkway. The keep rises over five floors and is flanked at the corners by three watchtowers and a stair tower. The first floor is a vast hall with ribbed vaulting. The upper floors each feature a large room of around 80 m² with monumental fireplaces. The central tower, known as the Brillac tower, has four floors, the top three each containing a room of approximately 40 m², with monumental fireplaces. The last tower has two levels of bedrooms, one of which includes an antechamber and a bathroom. These three towers are connected by two galleries on two levels. On the ground floor, peristyles with flamboyant Gothic-style decoration. On the upper level, one open arcaded gallery and one enclosed gallery with monumental fireplaces. The 19th-century residence is a long, classically styled building with two main floors, flanked by towers. The ground floor includes the service areas: a large stone-paved kitchen, a vestibule with staircase and mezzanine, and various small rooms. The first floor, divided by a fine cross hallway, is a reception area with a large wood-panelled drawing room, a small salon, and a study. The top floor is an intimate living space with a library, four bedrooms, dressing rooms and antechambers, and two bathrooms. Each floor of the residence has approximately 220 sqm of living space. Outbuildings: The outbuildings offer nearly 3,000 sqm of available space, mainly grouped within a long 17th-century structure arranged in a U-shape around the lower courtyard. Built over two levels, including an attic floor, the building is roofed with traditional flat clay tiles. The attic is lit by gabled or mill-style dormer windows with triangular pediments. The various sections comprise: -A corner pavilion, roofed in slate and converted into a caretaker’s house of approximately 150 sqm of habitable space. -The so-called 'Eastern Outbuildings', featuring the entrance porch to the village and large rooms fitted out as a local history museum. -At the corner, a bread oven and a three-storey round tower with a conical roof and adjoining spiral stair turret. -The 'Northern Outbuildings', an extensive wing including: A communal kitchen for around 60 people; Five bedrooms accommodating between 1 and 11 guests, each with an individual shower room; A refectory or banquet hall; A secondary dining area known as the 'Arcade Room'; Two small kitchens; Communal WCs and showers. -A corner pavilion containing a two-room apartment awaiting conversion. The 'Western Outbuildings', housing: A central heating plant; A workshop; A tack room; Stables and storage areas. Separated from the western outbuildings by a second arched gateway leading into the estate is a 19th-century barn with large timber doors, roofed in slate and currently used for storing agricultural vehicles. Additional features on the estate include: -A mill housing a 19th-century micro hydroelectric power station. -A charming lakeside pavilion, in need of restoration. -A large timber storage barn. The estate extends over a total area of 35.7 hectares and is entirely enclosed by a perimeter wall measuring approximately 2.5 kilometres in length—an exceptional feature. The grounds are criss-crossed by paths that divide the property into several distinct zones: Ten hectares of arable land, currently under direct cultivation. A large horse paddock of just over 2 hectares, located to the rear of the western outbuildings. An enclosed field of 3.5 hectares. -A pond of slightly more than 3 hectares, complete with its own pavilion. -A reference orchard featuring several varieties of quince trees. -An avenue lined with eight apple trees. -Meadows and pastureland. The rental situation : The château currently hosts small groups for training sessions. However, the accommodation and reception capacities of the outbuildings make it entirely feasible to welcome larger groups—whether on foot, on horseback, or by coach—and even to host prestigious events in a truly majestic setting. The following parts are classified as Historic Monument : as per the 1930 decree, the three eastern towers with machicolations, along with the two wings that connect them. This property is a historic monument (allowing fiscal tax cuts if you pay taxes in France).

A listed historical monument castle with vast outbuildings and 33-hectare grounds in the Centre-Val de Loire region . In the 15th century, a companion in arms and adviser to Louis XI built a sumptuous keep close to the original fortified manor house. In the 16th century, his descendants had four wings added to the original structure, featuring the Italianate galleries that are the hallmark of the present-day castle. One of these galleries was removed during the French Revolution, opening up the view over the grounds, while another of these wings was completely transformed into a corps-de-logis in the 19th century. The three remaining wings are thus arranged around an open courtyard, flanked by three round towers and the imposing former square keep at the corners. Standing near to the castle, the outbuildings form a long complex of 17th-century buildings. On three sides, they enclose a vast farmyard, in the centre of which stood the parish church until the 18th century, when it was moved to the village. The remains of a ditch and a drawbridge suggest that the complex was surrounded by a moat. The grounds extend beyond the complex, crossed by the river and featuring a 4-hectare lake with its landing stage and hut. The property's 35 hectares are entirely walled, with a turret seemingly standing guard at each corner. Two high entrance gates open onto the village, one in front of the castle and the other opposite the outbuildings. A third gate provides access to a country lane running along the perimeter wall.

The fluid circulation and multiple access points allow great flexibility of use. The upper floors provide a harmonious arrangement of bedrooms, studies, and living areas, including several suites with private bathrooms or shower rooms. Oak parquet flooring, sweeping staircases, and attic volumes further enhance the charm and authenticity of the property. The top level also offers significant additional development potential, depending on the envisioned project. The 19th-century outbuildings, totaling approximately 250 sqm on the ground, represent a major asset: offices, a former chapel, reception spaces, and attics—offering numerous possibilities for residential, professional, or tourism-related use.
