Ref 4985: Charming chateau for sale in Loire-Atlantique with woods, meadows, and a pond. The property is located west of Nantes in a municipality that is one of the largest in the metropolitan area. It consists overwhelmingly of natural and agricultural areas. Its rolling hills and the tranquility of its woods and meadows make you forget how close the city is. The cultural and commercial life here is particularly vibrant, featuring all major retail stores, restaurants, a farmers’ market, a theater, a media library, a music school, a swimming pool, sports complexes, and more. Residents also have access to all the services of the metropolitan area: schools, a university, shopping centers, hospitals, a TGV station, an international airport, and more. The property is in a quiet location. It is set in a peaceful, semi-rural setting, surrounded by woods and meadows. The nearest neighbors are more than 50 meters from the château, which has no direct line of sight to any other buildings. Tranquility reigns here, free from any disturbances. A small country road leads to the entrance of the property. A gate set between walls opens onto a gravel drive of about a hundred metres, gently sloping down towards the chateau. It reveals a rolling, wooded estate with, in a commanding position, a charming chateau with neo-Gothic architectural details. Built in 1850, it features pale facades with stone-framed windows, topped by a high four-sided slate roof. The north-east facade has a central double door, surmounted by a mullioned window and a tall triangular dormer. The south-west facade, symmetrical, overlooks the swimming pool, reached by a double-flight staircase, and looks out over the park. The chateau offers approximately 350 sqm of living space. On the ground floor, the hall leads straight ahead to the grand drawing room, to the left to the kitchen, and to the right to the foot of the stone staircase and a corridor. The drawing room is very bright thanks to three glazed doors opening south onto the park. With its fine ceiling height, it has retained its beautiful decorative features: black marble fireplace, herringbone parquet, mouldings, ceiling rose and panelling. A door with a pediment opens on the left into the dining room, lit by one window facing east over the woods and another facing south over the park. The open-plan contemporary kitchen is fully fitted; its parquet floor is set with cement tile inserts. A door opens to the east and two windows to the north. The parquet, the light-coloured paintwork and the five openings make the whole space wonderfully bright, while a wood-burning insert adds warmth and conviviality. A second sitting room, to the south-west, has a contemporary metal fireplace and could also be turned into a bedroom. Next to it, a laundry room could become a bathroom. A WC completes this floor. On the first floor, a curved stone staircase leads to a landing serving four bedrooms, two recent bathrooms, a dressing area and a WC. On the second floor, a vast partly converted attic, currently divided into four rooms, offers potential of more than 100 sqm. The chateau also has a partial cellar. OUTBUILDINGS The property includes: A/ An old building used as a garage, workshop and storage B/ Several small buildings C/ A small chapel. LAND The chateau park covers nearly 14.83 acres. It is made up of meadows and woods sloping down to a valley with a large pond. The chateau stands at its centre. In front of it, a terrace and its swimming pool overlook the surrounding countryside, perfect for summer evenings with friends. Facing the woods and the countryside, the property is shielded by trees from any overlooking.

iad France - Gilles Billaud offers you: You are part of the most prominent businesses in the Vendée department. Whether you are the owner or tenant of your headquarters, you acknowledge that it is soulless, and you suspect your employees lack enthusiasm for going there. Imagine relocating it, not to another department with the risk of losing your best talents, but nearby, to a simply idyllic location. A castle. Nothing less than that. This castle exists. It was built in the mid-19th century in the purest neo-classical style of Napoleon III's favorite architect, Eugène Viollet-le-Duc: the Château de Puybelliard, located in the municipality of Chantonnay. Admire its height, turrets, slate roof, and elegant shape in the attached photograph. Covering nearly 900 m², it represents the unexpected workplace for a workforce of thirty to fifty employees distributed in open space across its ten finely decorated rooms, spread over two floors, with a ceiling height of 4 meters. On the ground floor, two meeting rooms, one for large events and the other for smaller group meetings, will foster group think and collective emulation among your collaborators. A dining room featuring original paneling, previously used for a gourmet restaurant, will host them at lunchtime. A provider of your choice will prepare delicious meals for them in the kitchen, which is professionally equipped for this catering function. After lunch, your employees will gather in the adjacent bar, where, while having coffee, they can prepare to return to their workstations. Those who still have time can stroll in the park or even swim in the castle's pool during the lunch break in the summer. What better way to maintain a loyal and motivated workforce and avoid the inconveniences of turnover? Your products will be stored, as you wish, on the third floor, in the cellar, or in the two former stables, one of which is built of stone and particularly elegant. Transporters can access the entrance located on the departmental road to drop off or pick up your goods. The gardener and maids will reside in two adjoining cottages, ensuring an impeccable aesthetic for the park and impeccable cleanliness inside the castle, likely to dazzle clients, partners, or investors. Your brand, announced on the main gate on Rue des Dames, will be displayed at the roundabout inside the property, in front of the castle. You might think this is an oversized project? We do not need to remind you that acquiring a tangible asset opens a depreciation period of at least ten years*: we let you imagine the considerable corporate tax savings that would follow. And if your company generates during each financial year a result of one-tenth of the price of this castle, you will somehow have reimbursed it by the end of the depreciation period, by not paying the corresponding tax amount. We also do not need to remind you that any work you undertake in the castle or its annexes to embellish it or make it more functional would also be deductible from corporate tax. This magnificent castle awaits you, for a price of 1.1 million euros. (*) Tax modifiable period depending on the nature of the equipment concerned. Agency fees are the responsibility of the seller. A valid ID will be requested during the visit, in accordance with Article L.561-5 of the Monetary and Financial Code.

A Neo-Gothic chateau, listed as a Historical Monument & sold furnished, with its outbuildings & grounds, on nearly 15 ha, 15 km from Le Mans. Edified on the slope of a hill, Le Mans extends to the north of the property, past the woods, while behind tall pillars, the property is accessible via a tarmac driveway bordered by tall trees and flanked by an entrance pavilion, which houses the caretaker’s residence. Advancing through the landscaped grounds provides views, on one side, of the chateau’s symmetrical northern façade, whereas, arriving at the top of the hill, several outbuildings constructed in the 19th century can be seen set back from the chateau. They specifically include the orangery, today converted into a guesthouse, which faces the chateau’s southern façade on the other side of the courtyard, while, to the west, at a distance from the buildings -- on the site of the rose garden and its pools as shown in Edouard André's original plans -- a swimming pool has been added. As for the grassy grounds, they lead to a pond below, which reflects the tall trees’ foliage, whereas, following on from there, the walls of the former vegetable garden, where a tennis court has been created, close the property off from the outside. The chateau, listed as a regional Historical Monument, was edified in 1844 in a Neo-Gothic style, while its plaster-coated exteriors, mostly symmetrical and rather distinct to the north and south, are topped with pedimented dormers decorated with moulded stone and, specifically, coats of arms. With slate roofs, punctuated with finials, the chateau's interiors feature 18th-century inspired décor, which is, in turn, supplemented with Art Deco details. In addition, the grounds, designed in 1877, are also listed as a national Historical Monument, whereas their landscaped composition, emblematic of the passion for botany in the 19th century, is the result of the close collaboration between an industrialist from Sarthe and Edouard André, an internationally renowned landscape architect, who designed Paris’s Buttes-Chaumont Park.

Exclusive listing - “A quasi-royal château” - The finest and most outstanding 18th-century château in Anjou 300 hectares - Private racecourse -17th–18th century architecture - Magnificent park designed by Edouard André - Sumptuous 18th-century interior decoration featuring marble and wood paneling - Private racecourse - Listed historic monument - 300 km from Paris, Angers, Maine-et-Loire, Pays de la Loire. Set within 300 hectares, this property of royal appearance, owned in the 19th century by descendants of the English royal family, stands as one of the most brilliant and sumptuous historic estates in western France, both for its classical 17th- and 18th-century architecture, its park designed by the great landscape architect Edouard André (notably responsible for the Monte Carlo park), and its interior decoration marked by superb 18th-century woodwork, a grand gallery, and a sumptuous marble salon; all overlooking, with a magnificent view, a rare private racecourse still in operation. The majestic private avenue, over one kilometer long and lined with century-old plane trees, winds through the park, offering superb vistas, and leads to a grand perspective revealing the most beautiful, brilliant, and elegant 18th-century château in Anjou, after passing through classical gardens of topiary, pools, and fountains. This property, described as “quasi-royal,” is clearly inspired by the Palace of Versailles: three grand approach perspectives, a U-shaped courtyard around a 17th-century building begun in 1635 and expanded in the 18th century with two lateral wings of outbuildings opening onto inner courtyards, and an east–west orientation capturing sunlight throughout the day. Beyond the gate and the ha-has, the château's elegant courtyard is overlooked by a statue of Minerva symbolizing peace. A series of French windows leads into a sumptuous 24-meter-long through gallery, adorned with monumental columns, cabochon flooring, flooded with light, and opening onto the garden through eight French windows with a magnificent axial view. On the park side, a grand and elegant double staircase leads to the first floor. At one end of the gallery, a majestic staircase with a beautiful, airy flight of stone steps and wrought-iron railing leads to the upper floor. Behind it lies a wood-paneled library with cabochon flooring, opening onto the garden at ground level. A through chapel, accessible from both inside and outside, features a superb main altar with a large carved wooden altarpiece with pilasters, Corinthian capitals, twisted columns with vine scrolls, and three paintings: The Flight into Egypt, The Adoration of the Magi, and The Visitation, along with a crucifix. Painted and armorial stained glass from the 16th century depict a knight and Saint James. At the other end of the gallery, a fine 18th-century wood-paneled salon with a marble fireplace opens onto the garden, the dining room, and the grand marble salon. The marble salon, directly inspired by the Salon of War and Salon of Peace at Versailles, occupies a neoclassical pavilion built specifically in 1780. With 6-meter ceilings and 8.4 meters beneath the dome, flooded with light from six large French windows, this 80 m² salon features sumptuous 18th-century decoration in French marble, mirrors, pilasters with Ionic capitals, medallions, a marble fireplace with gilded bronze and Italian micro-mosaics, marble mosaic flooring, and 18th-century Italian marble marquetry panels. Two terracotta overdoor panels bear inscriptions reflecting Enlightenment ideals.

An elegant, 19th century chateau and its outbuildings in Vendee's lowland bocage countryside on the outskirts of La-Roche-sur-Yon. A central, 200 m long alleyway, lined with oak trees, crosses 10 hectares of fields before reaching the main entrance. This is guarded by a hunting lodge and tall metal gates. A perimeter wall encloses the property. The 3 hectares of parklands, gardens landscaped in 1893 and redesigned in 2002, are planted with several trees over a hundred years old, including sequoia, ash, oak and lime trees. They also have numerous camellia, azalea and boxwood bushes. Alleyways lead to the various outbuildings of the chateau, some of which have been so well renovated that they are able to accommodate up to 40 guests. The property’s two swimming pools, one heated indoor pool and one outdoor pool, make it possible to take relaxing dips from April through until October. An orangery is but an invitation to read and relax. On the sides and in front of the chateau are the old wash-house, the bread oven and the moat, all bearing witness to its history.

Ref. 4137: Charming castle for sale, for professional use, near vendeen coast Situated in the south of the Vendée bocage, near vendeen coast, the Château is on the edge of a picturesque village, not far from an attractive town with all amenities. It is ideally suited to tourism, with a restaurant and professional kitchen, guest rooms and two gîtes. The bocage region of the Vendée is mainly made up of fields surrounded by coppice, hedges and copses, forming a landscape of unspoilt natural charm. The small village where the Château is located has a rich history: in the 15th century, this trading town was renowned throughout the region for its fairs and varied crafts. In 1721, it was one of the twenty largest towns in Bas-Poitou! The fairs lost their importance in the 16th century, and after the Revolution they were held only four times a year. Built between 1850 and 1856, this Château is typical of the buildings of the period: a vast, ostentatious residence in keeping with the recovery and reconstruction of the region after the Vendée War. It is a square building, two storeys high. The garden level has a large surface area thanks to two low wings with concealed roofs, while the central mass rises over four levels of windows above a brick base. This strong vertical effect is accentuated by the high chimney stacks and corbelled turrets at each corner, known as pepperboxes. In addition, the rear façade features a polygonal front decorated with an attractive superimposition of Ionic and Corinthian orders. Inside, after climbing a granite staircase, visitors are welcomed into a vast entrance hall (40 sqm) with columns with composite capitals opening onto a beautiful dining room (43 sqm) with fine wood panelling, parquet flooring and a fireplace. Ceiling height is 4.50 metres. To the left are three reception rooms (40 sqm, 45 sqm and 22 sqm). On the right-hand side, the more technical part, a corridor with wood panelling and stucco leads to a professional kitchen (38 sqm), an office, cold rooms and toilets that can accommodate the public (PMR standard). A huge, beautifully curved staircase leads to the upper floors. It has a remarkable original wrought-iron banister. The upper floors can also be accessed via a back staircase. On the first floor, a vast corridor leads to four bedrooms, each with its own shower room and toilet, located in one of the four towers. All have beautiful oak parquet flooring. The second floor has the same layout as the first, with four bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and toilet. Beautiful oak parquet flooring. The attic is partly converted, with a small kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The other part can be converted. A huge cellar completes the ensemble: a large central corridor with external exits at each end leads to a group of nine fully vaulted, stone-paved rooms. It covers the entire surface area of the Château. The outbuildings comprise: The orangery : This pretty stone and brick building with a slate roof is in need of restoration. It is 24 m long and 11 m wide. A large attic is possible. The stables : This rendered stone building dates from 1880 and comprises a central building flanked by two wings. The building requires restoration works. It is 26 metres long and 13 metres wide. The building includes garages, stables, a tack room and the possibility of attics throughout. The gîtes : In the former orchard, separated from the Château, surrounded by old stone walls, two gîtes have been restored. The first gîte sleeps 6 people (€1,000 in high season) and the second sleeps 4 (€760 in high season). A swimming pool (5x10m) allows guests to cool off after visiting the rich heritage of the Vendée. The park covers approximately 6,18 acres, some of which is enclosed by walls. The English-style park is planted with large trees of various species. In particular, there are two huge sequoias. The woodland of around one hectare is planted mainly with oaks. Away from the Château is the orchard, enclosed by old walls: several fruit trees, including fig, mirabelle, apple and peach trees.

Ref 4828: Château and outbuildings for sale in the Vendée The property is situated in the heart of the Vendée bocage, considered one of the most striking landscapes in the Vendée. This region, often compared to the English countryside, is characterised by its rolling hills, fields bordered by hedgerows, forests, rivers and charming sunken lanes. Nestled in a peaceful, green setting, the property nevertheless benefits from its proximity to the lively town of Pouzauges, just 8 km away. The town offers a friendly atmosphere, numerous events organised throughout the year and a particularly vibrant community life.

Thirty-five metres long, it comprises an elegant glass roof housing a spacious conservatory, a small pavilion, a central section punctuated by five bays of windows, and a large pavilion. This varied composition lends the whole a harmony imbued with simplicity and charm, enhanced by the window frames and corner string courses highlighted with brickwork.

It enjoys exceptional natural light thanks to a metal glass roof with small panes, resting on a wooden base and rising to the full height of the north, east and south façades. Completely renovated, this glass roof highlights an elegant cement tile floor laid in a black-and-white chequerboard pattern.

It offers a warm atmosphere centred around a moulded white marble fireplace.
