castle for sale Lorraine, France

An 18th-century chateau with a secondary house, indoor and outdoor pools, and eight hectares of grounds with a stream, just over an hour from Paris by high-speed rail. The property is hidden at the end of a small, calm lane in a village with under 250 inhabitants nestled in a beautiful valley through which a stream gently flows. A large gate opens beneath a wrought-iron arch of spearheads that stand out against the sky. The chateau towers at the end a long driveway alongside which annexes lie. The drive leads up to the edifice’s front courtyard. Splendid grounds extend all around the chateau. Woods edge them. A stream snakes through the grounds and a canal with a washing place runs through them too. Bridges of stone, wrought iron and timber cross the stream. Stone benches dot the grounds. There is an outdoor tennis court here too. And an island features an elegant wrought-iron pavilion crowned with a zinc roof.
