An 18th-century manor house, with a stately character, nestled within 8.5 hectares of unspoiled nature. Away from any disturbance, at the end of a wooded lane, this estate offers a rare setting: a completely natural environment, with no noise other than that of the countryside. The 8.5 hectares, all in one piece, blend meadows, undergrowth, and a pond of approximately one hectare fed by a stream. Surrounding it, the woods stretch as far as the eye can see, guaranteeing absolute tranquility. The heart of the estate is a manor house whose origins may date back to an earlier noble or seigniorial settlement, rebuilt and remodeled in the 18th century. Several elements attest to this: a monumental porch dated 1773, openings altered in 1755 and 1784, and older foundations still visible. The entire structure has survived the centuries without losing its character. Meticulously maintained, it is presented today in remarkable condition, with over 600 m² of living space and a partially convertible third floor of 230 m². The rooms are spacious, the layout is fluid, and the original features – terracotta tiles, parquet floors, fireplaces – have been carefully preserved or restored. The house is organized into two interconnected wings, making it ideal for a large family, for separating private spaces, or for developing a hospitality business without compromising the architectural coherence. Exceptional outbuildings bear witness to a once-thriving agricultural estate. Like many properties in the Charente region, the estate has evolved over the centuries: farming, winemaking, livestock breeding… This history is still evident in its outbuildings, which total over 1,500 m²: a former wine cellar, press and vat rooms, a barn and stable with storage on the upper floor, a former distillery, workshops, carports, a former forge, an agricultural shed, a heated orangery, and a separate 85 m² caretaker's cottage converted from the old bread oven. These buildings, most of which are in very good structural condition, offer rare potential: equestrian activities, gîtes (holiday cottages), workshops, storage, receptions, a collection, or simply a spacious and cohesive living environment. The park extends the estate's history: hornbeam avenues structure the space, meadows recall its former agricultural purpose, undergrowth preserves the spirit of the ancient land, and the pond surrounded by trees provides a tranquil landscape. This unspoiled setting creates a rare harmony where the buildings and nature seem to have evolved together for generations. A truly exceptional property. This estate combines what is becoming almost impossible to find today: an authentic and sound old manor house, complete and well-integrated outbuildings, a preserved natural environment free from any disturbances, a history that is both clear and respected, and significant potential without compromising the spirit of the place. An ensemble that has survived the centuries while retaining its soul, and which now awaits a new chapter, in keeping with what it has always been: a grand Charentaise estate, solid, elegant, and deeply rooted in its landscape. Agency fees are payable by the buyer, amounting to 4.00% including VAT of the price excluding fees.

Ref.4637 : French castle for sale with its dungeon In the heart of a tourist region, between Futuroscope, Angles-sur-l'Anglin (listed as one of France's most beautiful villages) and the Creuse valley, close to La Roche Posay, an internationally-renowned spa resort, this château in a dominant position, nestled in a peaceful rural setting in the immediate vicinity of the Brenne Regional Park, benefits from an exceptional natural setting. It combines the prestige of a place steeped in history with a rare location, just a few minutes from all amenities. Fast access to Châtellerault and Poitiers (TGV station, airport). The château comprises a small pavilion to the north, which appears to date back to the 15th century, and a second, more imposing building, arranged in a barely perceptible L- or even U-shape. The whole rests on a platform supported by buttresses. The oldest pavilion, nestling in the northeast corner, takes the form of a tall square tower with a flat-tiled hip roof. This building has preserved its fine chamfered openings with projecting sills. On its southeast corner, it is flanked by a hexagonal tower with an elegant flat-tiled pyramidal roof, also featuring remarkable openings, including a magnificent window with an accolade lintel adorned with a carved escutcheon. The main body of the château is a rectangular dwelling topped by a flat-tiled gable roof. The south-east façade features 3 bays on the first level and 5 on the second, while a small, solitary dormer lights up the attic. At the north-west corner, a circular tower with a conical flat-tiled roof and half-roof completes the ensemble. A similar tower rises not far from the south corner and is linked to the dwelling by a lower, single-storey wing with a canted slate roof and an attic storey, lit by elegant triangular pediment dormers. This wing appears to have been built at a later date than the rest of the building. The layout of the two round towers suggests that they were an integral part of the original château enclosure, whose main dwelling would have been represented by the aforementioned north pavilion. In the last light of day, the warm hue of the tiles lends the building a particularly welcoming atmosphere.

Nestled in a private and tranquil setting in the Vienne department of central France, the property extends over 6.9 hectares of landscaped gardens, meadows, and river frontage, complete with two private islands. The estate includes the original dungeon of 1350, transformed into a unique and atmospheric wedding and events hall, the impressive château of 1492 with its tall tower overlooking the countryside, a two-bedroom gîte, a two-bedroom caretaker's cottage, a one-bedroom apartment, a vast two-level barn, a games room and library, a swimming pool with terraces, and an original bread oven. The château itself has been sympathetically renovated, blending modern comfort with authentic medieval character. On the ground floor, the original wooden door of the tower opens into a hallway that reveals the spiral granite staircase, its steps worn smooth by centuries of use. A large living room with monumental fireplace, a rustic country kitchen designed for both family life and professional catering, a downstairs bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and a vaulted stone cellar ideal for wine tastings complete this level. The first floor offers two grand bedrooms with stylish but authentic bathrooms, while the vast attic above remains undeveloped, providing exceptional potential for further accommodation. Adjoining the château is a spacious games room with a craft room above, and to the other side stands a huge barn housing machinery and a brand-new pellet boiler, with a vast attic that could be converted into an impressive events hall. Within the main courtyard lies the owners' cottage, comprising an open-plan living space, kitchen, storeroom, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. Opposite stands the original 1350 dungeon, once three levels high in the days of the Templar Knights and still retaining its original fireplace, now used as a wedding hall. A further two-bedroom cottage with a modern kitchen and bright lounge opens onto the swimming pool terrace, while a small apartment provides additional rental income. The grounds are equally enchanting, offering shrubbed gardens, vegetable plots, meadows, wooded areas, and a terrace viewpoint leading down to the river below. The current owners have carried out extensive and tasteful renovations, yet the estate still holds enormous untapped potential for further development, events, or the expansion of its successful rental business. This château is more than a property ? it is a living piece of history, filled with character, romance, and possibility. Words and photos cannot capture its magic. A personal visit is essential to truly experience the atmosphere of this extraordinary estate. (4.04 % fees incl. VAT at the buyer's expense.)

Built in the 18th and 19th centuries, this characterful estate features a magnificent 500 m2 château flanked by two medieval towers. Accompanied by numerous outbuildings, it is set in 8 hectares of wooded grounds on the edge of a charming hamlet, close to the dynamic city center of Angoulême.Overlooking the Natura 2000-listed Échelle valley, its charm is apparent from the moment you arrive, crossing a stone footbridge over deep dry moats, at the height of a 12th-century tower covered in ivy. The hallway instantly offers a view of the promontory terrace, suspended above the moat and underground passages that run behind the building.In contrast to the imposing, timeless exterior, the interior of the château evokes a country house on a human scale. The current owners have undertaken a sensitive and respectful renovation in a refined style, allowing the history and patina of the place to shine through, in keeping with the aesthetic of their family business: Les Petites Emplettes. The interior design approach is to let volumes and textures express themselves, enriching them with natural materials and, above all, inviting light to flow through the large windows, capturing the surrounding nature at every moment. Raised on three levels, the ground floor mainly houses north-south living rooms bathed in light. This light is reflected on the white shellstone walls, punctuated by original doors painted in a timeless green. The eclectic floors combine hexagonal terracotta tiles, speckled checkerboard tiles from the 1950s, and wide wooden floorboards. An elm staircase with elegant ironwork follows the curves of the stone wall and serves the four levels, from the cellars to the attic, generously distributing the spaces, including eight bedrooms, their adjoining rooms, and three bathrooms. The top level, with exposed beams, offers a panoramic view of the picturesque surrounding landscape.To the west of the château, a U-shaped farmhouse houses more than 1,500 m2 of outbuildings. These buildings, witnesses to the rural activity of yesteryear, include barns, dwellings, workshops, and stables, some of which have been renovated. On one side of the green courtyard, a spectacularly spacious barn has been converted into a multipurpose showroom and guinguette, spread over three levels and 300 m2. A magnificent, fully restored wooden frame blends harmoniously with the freshly repointed stone walls, sanded concrete floor, and contemporary steel joinery.Opposite, an outbuilding has been converted into a cottage-style gîte. This little cocoon embodies the same values of light and materials, with a contemporary touch upstairs, clad in poplar plywood. The ground floor features a cozy living room around a Godin stove, a sunny bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, and upstairs, a mezzanine dormitory with a second bedroom and bathroom. It is impossible to describe everything, as the place is so rich in inspiration and potential. The possibilities are endless for bringing these old buildings steeped in history to life, transforming them, and enhancing them.ARCHIK's teams of architects are at your disposal to assist you in transforming this unique property and adapting it to your desires and uses.A poetic place of yesteryear, timeless and unique, which unpretentiously expresses its history through the ages.
