Réf. 4830: Listed castle, set within a 568 acres estate in the Côtes-d'Armor. This remarkable château, a true gem of Breton heritage, is situated in the Côtes d’Armor department, in the hinterland of Saint-Brieuc, at the heart of a 568 acres natural estate, largely wooded, which constitutes a rare example of the large landed estates of the 19th century. Although situated in an isolated and unspoilt rural setting, it is nonetheless accessible, a short distance from a charming medium-sized town with all amenities. The nearest beaches are 30 minutes away, and Paris is a 2-hour 20-minute journey by TGV. Built on the site of a former manor house dating from the 15th century, which was extended and remodelled in the 19th century in the Neo-Gothic style, this exceptional château embodies a perfect blend of fascinating, cohesive, historic architecture and the demands of modern living. Restored at great expense with remarkable attention to detail, it offers high-quality amenities in an authentic setting. At the end of a long, 1.4-kilometre avenue winding through the woods and passing close to the pond, the château, with its L-shaped layout, reveals its full grandeur. It immediately commands attention at first glance. Its façade is punctuated by mullioned windows and tall dormer windows with pointed gables; its polygonal tower is flanked by a turret on a lamp base, and the truncated tower in the inner corner forms the entrance staircase, these two towers reinforcing its exceptional character. Behind its elegant facades of dressed granite stone lie vast, light-filled reception rooms offering beautiful views of the surroundings. These rooms are enhanced by carefully preserved period features: a moulded entrance door with pinnacles and fleurons, monumental fireplaces, wood panelling, a grand staircase with balusters, and a spiral staircase. With 1,250 sqm of living space, comprising approximately 420 sqm per floor, the château features a large central entrance hall with a grand staircase leading to two adjoining living rooms, a dining room, a fitted kitchen, a study, a billiard room, a gym and two toilets.

On the first floor, the ceiling height is 3.9 m and on the second floor 3.2 m. All these rooms are cleverly laid out, spacious, and offer beautiful views of the park and woodland. The basement extends beneath the entire château and contains currently unused rooms, the boiler room, and the former kitchen with its fireplace. The laundry room is on the mezzanine level. Outbuilding : Designed in the 19th century on the model of large agricultural estates (model farms), the property was self-sufficient. This vast complex, covering approximately 2,500 sqm, comprises: - A remarkable U-shaped stable building (440 sqm), constructed from pink granite from Perros-Guirec, with the central section of the U covered in the Baltard style – a covered area used for harnessing the horses, topped by a clock tower. This building includes the carriage houses, the large and small stables, the stalls, the haylofts and the former grooms’ quarters. These buildings were ahead of their time, as they were equipped with ingenious and innovative systems: a medicine cabinet, a battery-powered telephone linked to the château, an oat dispenser, etc. - A model 19th-century farmstead forming a courtyard around which are situated a residential house (220 sqm), a dovecote, a shed for agricultural equipment, a cider press, a turret serving as a water tank, a henhouse and kennels. - A caretaker’s house located near the vegetable garden, in poor condition. - A forest lodge (95 sqm) in working order, currently let on a temporary basis as a hunting lodge for hunters. - A greenhouse situated in the large vegetable garden. - A farm comprising a residential building (99 sqm) and farm buildings, some of stone construction, others of the shed type.

The property is undulating, with a stream running through the centre that feeds into and flows through approx. 4.8 ares pond . The deciduous and coniferous woodland is covered by a Simple Management Plan covering an area of approx. 388 acres. In addition to the plan’s value as a tool for managing the forest, it allows for an IFI tax exemption amounting to three-quarters of its value.

The architectural ensemble has preserved its authenticity and remarkable coherence throughout the centuries. Set within more than four hectares of fully enclosed grounds, the estate features formal French gardens, ornamental ponds, fountains, 19th-century orangeries, a caretaker's house and extensive outbuildings, creating an environment of exceptional elegance and distinction.

A remnant of a prestigious past, this 18th-19th century château was once a hunting lodge frequented by kings and aristocrats. Located just 15 minutes from Narbonne, in an authentic Minervois village, it exudes timeless elegance with its 655 m² of living space.

A rare residence to discover. Contact us for an exclusive viewing.

This château, built around 1600, once belonged to the co-seigneurs of the region, establishing it within a feudal tradition where several noble families shared the rights and responsibilities of a single seigneury. This arrangement strengthened local influence and ensured collective management of the land. In the 19th century, the château became a literary retreat for Pierre Alexis Ponson du Terrail, who wrote parts of his famous serialized novel Rocambole here, giving the estate a unique character. The first of the current owner's lineage purchased the château as a hunting lodge, and each summer, the family from Marseille would come to stay and hunt. This ancestor was a devoted supporter of Count de Chambord, King Henri V, the last legitimate heir to the throne for royalists. This allegiance reflects the château's deep ties to French history. In 1920, an agricultural wing was added, designed by a renowned architect to form a complete farm estate. It includes a sheepfold, hay barns, several dovecotes, pigsties, kennels, a silkworm house, a washhouse, an old bread oven, vehicle spaces, a water cistern, and worker accommodations. The current owners continue to run this agricultural operation and lease the surrounding land. In the 1970s, modern comforts such as gas central heating, a new kitchen, and upgraded bathrooms were introduced. However, the original condition remains largely untouched, offering excellent restoration potential. Today, maintenance costs have become too high for the current owners, and, after seven generations, they reluctantly offer the estate for sale. Thanks to its rich past, the château and its agricultural buildings now offer a property of exceptional character, blending heritage, prestige, and authenticity, perfect for history enthusiasts and those who appreciate storied places. There are around 16 hectares of arable land, and the woods are managed by a simple forestry plan, to be continued by the buyer. With a renovation budget (for roofing, floors, plumbing, electricity, and sanitation), this property can be restored to its former splendor. This castle is located closeby a charming village of around 750 residents in the Luberon, Provence, offering a relaxed lifestyle. A bakery is just steps away, where the baker sells excellent bread, the grocery store offers local cheeses and charcuterie, and the terraces, brasseries, and restaurants under the grand plane trees provide a friendly atmosphere. The village is lively, with a post office, a nursery and primary school, a town hall, an antique store, a bistro, an inn, a pizzeria, pottery studios, and a few galleries. Nature is ever-present, with lavender fields, endless forests, the mountains behind the village, and the ochre cliffs offering breathtaking colors during each hike. The town of Apt, with shops, a high school, middle school, cinema, and restaurants, is 10 km away. The Avignon TGV station is about 1 hour 15 minutes away, and Marseille Airport is around 1 hour 30 minutes by car. Please feel free to contact me for more information and to schedule a viewing. I would be delighted to show you this exceptional property!

ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF CHALON-SUR-SAÔNE, THE ELEGANCE OF A 19TH-CENTURY ESTATE Behind a circular main courtyard lined with century-old trees, the Château de la Villeneuve reveals an instantly recognizable silhouette. Two corner turrets, a slate roof?a rarity in the region?and the balance of a symmetrical layout define the identity of this 19th-century bourgeois residence. Connected to a spectacular contemporary orangery that opens onto the grounds, the estate today combines a residence of character, an established hospitality business, and a refined lifestyle?all just a few minutes from Chalon-sur-Saône and the vineyards of the Côte Chalonnaise. 19TH-CENTURY ARCHITECTURE COMPLEMENTED BY A CONTEMPORARY ORANGERY Built at the height of the Industrial Revolution, the Château de la Villeneuve belongs to that generation of bourgeois mansions whose architecture reflected both success and a way of life. Its symmetrical layout, two corner turrets, dormer windows, ridge ironwork, and slate roof create a silhouette that is instantly recognizable in the regional landscape. A rarity in Burgundy, this roof contributes to the estate's unique character and evokes the architectural style of the grand residences of 19th-century notables. Inside, the original features naturally extend this elegance. Wood paneling, moldings, fireplaces, spiral staircases, and antique hardwood floors complement the spacious, light-filled rooms. Every detail seems to have found its perfect place, striking a delicate balance between historic character and contemporary comfort. Extending from the château, the contemporary orangery offers a new perspective on the estate.

The 60 m² wooden terrace naturally extends this light-filled reception area, designed to host everything from large family gatherings to moments of relaxation or more intimate receptions. MARGUERITE BOUCICAUT'S LEGACY IN A PRESERVED PARK The history of the Château de la Villeneuve bears the discreet yet essential mark of Marguerite Boucicaut. A native of Chalon-sur-Saône and co-founder of Le Bon Marché in Paris alongside her husband Aristide Boucicaut, she remains one of the most influential figures in 19th-century French philanthropy. It was thanks to the inheritance she left behind that the Charrier-Guérin family was able to acquire the property, permanently embedding the estate in a unique family and heritage history. This legacy continues to shape the identity of the place today. It links the château to a human journey that extends beyond the borders of Burgundy and serves as a reminder of the major role Marguerite Boucicaut played in French social and economic history. Surrounding the mansion, the historic 5,500 m² park provides a setting worthy of this legacy. Organized around a large circular main courtyard, dotted with century-old trees and open vistas, it offers a preserved landscape where greenery graces every view. The seasons are fully expressed here, amid soft shadows, lush foliage, and unobstructed views of the château's facades. This abundance of greenery gives the estate a distinctive atmosphere while maintaining close proximity to the city. A HOSPITABLE DESTINATION IN THE HEART OF THE CÔTE CHALONNAISE The Château de la Villeneuve's location is a major factor in its appeal. Situated on the outskirts of Chalon-sur-Saône, the estate enjoys quick access to shops, services, the train station, and major transportation routes. The A6 highway connects Lyon and Paris, while the vineyards of Mercurey, Rully, and Givry anchor the property in the heart of one of the most sought-after regions of the Côte Chalonnaise. This prime location directly supports the hospitality tradition cultivated over the years. The estate attracts visitors eager to explore Burgundy's wine-growing landscapes, travelers seeking a more intimate getaway, and business professionals passing through the Chalonnais region. Already successfully operating as a bed-and-breakfast?distinguished by the Clef Verte label for its commitment to more responsible tourism?the property currently generates annual revenue of approximately euros100,000 (excluding tax). Its current structure makes significant expansion of this business a realistic prospect. Hosting wellness retreats, expanding the range of accommodations, or creating new experiences centered on the local area all offer opportunities to continue the property's legacy. THE AGENCY'S OPINION The Château de la Villeneuve combines all the elements that define great estates of character: a distinctly recognizable 19th-century bourgeois residence, a contemporary orangery opening onto the grounds, a history intimately linked to Marguerite Boucicaut, a 5,500 m² historic park centered around a remarkable main courtyard, and a hospitality business certified by the Clef Verte program that is already firmly established.

The Château du Maréchal de Saxe An Exceptional Historic Estate on the Outskirts of Paris. Just twenty kilometres from Paris, at the heart of an estate spanning approximately sixty hectares, the Château de la Grange, better known as the Château du Maréchal de Saxe, stands among the most remarkable historic residences in the Île-de-France region. Originally commissioned in 1617 by Charles Duret de Chevry, Superintendent of Finances under King Louis XIII, and designed by the architect Jean Thiriot, a close associate of Cardinal Richelieu, the château was built on the foundations of a former fortified farm in the heart of the Forest of La Grange. Its elegant brick-and-stone architecture, a hallmark of the Louis XIII style, gives the property a timeless distinction. Offering approximately 1,300 sq.m (14,000 sq.ft) of living space, complemented by around 1,700 sq.m (18,300 sq.ft) of outbuildings, the estate presents exceptional potential for a luxury hospitality, events, institutional or mixed-use development of international standing. The château entered history in 1748 when it was acquired by Maurice de Saxe, Marshal of France, victor of the Battle of Fontenoy and one of the greatest military strategists of the eighteenth century. He undertook extensive improvements to the estate, including the creation of the celebrated Galerie des Stucs (Stucco Gallery). Over the centuries, the estate passed into the hands of several distinguished families closely connected to the highest circles of power, notably the Gourgaud family, whose history is deeply intertwined with the Napoleonic era. Listed as a Historic Monument, the château has preserved its façades, roofs, ceremonial gallery, several historic reception rooms, its Cour d’Honneur, moats, magnificent entrance gates and a substantial part of its landscaped park. The current owners have successfully revived the estate by restoring its historic salons and establishing a refined gourmet restaurant, demonstrating the remarkable potential of a property where heritage, gastronomy, nature and the French art of entertaining coexist in perfect harmony. Today, this extraordinary estate awaits a new visionary owner. Its immediate proximity to Paris, the quality of its architectural heritage, the scale of its buildings and the beauty of its grounds make it a truly rare opportunity to create a prestigious hotel. Some estates preserve history. Others offer the opportunity to write it.
