Castle Saint-Etienne-la-Varenne (69)

A chateau with a cone-roofed tower and old winemaking outhouses, nestled in France’s Beaujolais winegrowing area near the city of Lyon. The shape of the chateau evokes the family winegrowing estates that were established in the local region between the 17th century and the 19th century. The rectangular main edifice with its round corner tower stands in walled grounds, which are dotted with trees. A roof of tiles with a patina of time crowns the building. A cone roof caps the adjoining tower. The elevations are coated with pale rendering and punctuated with tall windows fitted with white shutters, brought out by the warm tones of the soil and the surrounding rooftops. Several outbuildings stand around the shady inner court. Some have spacious interiors. Their elevations are marked by the passing of the years. They recall the property’s original agricultural purpose.

Castle Etampes (91)

Ref 4945: Chateau and its numerous outbuildings for sale in the Loiret, near Etampes This remarkable property is situated in the north of the Loiret, on the border between the ‘Beauce Riche’ and the Juine Valley, just 65 kilometres from Paris, and thus benefits from the strong appeal of the Île-de-France region. The estate is just 20 minutes from Étampes, with its railway station served by the RER C line, amongst others, and approximately one hour from Paris by road. Malesherbes station, served by the RER D line to Paris-Gare de Lyon, also provides an alternative rail link. Local shops and everyday amenities are within easy reach, less than 5 km away, whilst Pithiviers, about 20 minutes away, offers a more comprehensive range of shops and services. The village also retains its local shops, including a bakery and a weekly market. This location allows you to enjoy a residential and secluded setting whilst remaining easily connected to Paris and the major motorways. Nearby, the landscapes of the Juine Valley, the estates and châteaux of Essonne and Loiret, as well as the region’s charming villages, offer a particularly sought-after setting for a family home, a holiday property or a heritage project. Oriented along a north-south axis and situated in a commanding position overlooking a small valley, the château is laid out in an elegant ‘T’ shape. Its architectural composition combines a main section of exposed cut stone with two side towers featuring a salmon-coloured rendered façade, accentuated by corner string courses of cut stone. The whole is topped with slate roofs, punctuated by dormer windows. The main building comprises a basement level, a raised ground floor, a main storey and a converted attic level. The façades are punctuated by large windows, emphasised by horizontal bands marking the different levels and lending the whole structure a sense of architectural regularity. All around the château, the courtyard is enclosed by a wide, dry-stone-walled moat, adorned with fruit trees. This feature, which is integral to the estate’s identity, bears witness to its history and recalls the property’s defensive origins. From the courtyard, access to the raised ground floor is via an imposing external staircase with a double straight flight, featuring an elegant balustrade of stone balusters. This leads to a vast landing, also lined with balusters, which serves as the residence’s ceremonial entrance. With a living area of approximately 650 sqm, the château is laid out as follows: The raised ground floor: accessible from the basement level or directly from the inner courtyard via the monumental staircase, the ground floor is organised around a beautiful entrance hall leading to the various reception rooms. To the left, a drawing room notable for its Versailles parquet flooring, panelled walls and marble fireplace is complemented by a billiard room. To the right, the entrance leads to an elegant music room of approximately 35 sqm (ceiling height 3.50 m), featuring painted exposed beams and a wooden fireplace. A modern, fitted and fully equipped kitchen, a library of approximately 25 sqm which also serves as a study, with herringbone parquet flooring, and a dining room of approximately 30 sqm complete this level. A guest toilet and a service staircase round off the layout. The first floor, accessed via the main staircase located in the rear half of the entrance hall, comprises a landing leading to a living room of approximately 26 sqm and five bedrooms, each with its own shower room and toilet, offering comfort and privacy to residents and guests. The attic level: partly converted, it comprises four additional bedrooms, a bathroom and a toilet. A spacious loft provides a view of the building’s remarkable timber framework and offers further potential depending on your plans. The basement level: this level features a spacious corridor leading to the former kitchens, which notably retain their cabochon-patterned floor tiles, as well as a utility room, an indoor well, a fruit store, a pantry and a boiler room. This level also includes a former vaulted cellar featuring a fireplace and a bread oven, as well as a wine cellar. A staircase leads to the upper floors. Harmoniously spread across the four corners of the estate, the numerous outbuildings serve a wide variety of purposes and offer opportunities for development and uses that complement the main house (residential, heritage or events projects). The outbuildings include: A/ A caretaker’s house B/ The miller’s house C/ The old mill D/ Two elegant outbuildings E/ The farm buildings F/ A dovecote G/ A shed A/ The caretaker’s house To the west, right next to the main entrance, a caretaker’s cottage offers a detached property in need of refurbishment. It comprises, on the ground floor, a living room, a kitchen, a bedroom and a toilet, plus two further bedrooms upstairs and a shower room. The property is fitted with gas heating with a storage tank. The slate roof shows signs of wear and tear. The window frames are double-glazed, made of wood and PVC on the first floor, whilst the ground floor still has single-glazed windows. B/ The miller’s house The miller’s house, situated to the north of the château in a setting with a small river flowing below, has its own entrance from the public road. It is laid out as follows: on the ground floor there is a kitchen, a toilet with a utility room, and a living room. The first floor comprises two bedrooms, a bathroom and a toilet, whilst the second floor comprises three bedrooms, a shower room and a toilet. The house is fitted with a combined wood and electric heating system, single-glazed wooden windows and an individual sewage system. Its slate roof shows signs of wear and tear. C/ The old mill The old mill is one of the most distinctive features of the estate. Built of rendered rubble stone, it retains its oak roof structure as well as the components associated with the old waterwheel mechanism. It comprises, in particular, a barn of approximately 80 sqm, various rooms and utility spaces, as well as a large room of approximately 115 sqm on the first floor, surmounted by an attic level of the same size. The slate roof, which is around thirty years old, shows signs of wear and tear. This property offers a particularly attractive setting for a guest house or event venue. D/ Two elegant outbuildings To the south of the château, a terraced lawn surrounded by retaining walls is flanked by two elegant outbuildings. The first houses a former dovecote which has been converted into toilet facilities. The second comprises a small detached dwelling consisting of a living room, a kitchen, a bedroom, a bathroom and a toilet. E/ The farm buildings This remarkable outbuilding complex faces the two pavilions, forming a courtyard which marks the boundary with the neighbouring property. The latter owns part of this building, though this arrangement does not detract from the secluded and peaceful character of the estate. This wing comprises numerous cellars, storage rooms, garages and workshop spaces. Two large rooms, measuring approximately 100 sqm and 90 sqm, in particular offer interesting potential, subject to some renovation work, for the creation of reception or event spaces. F/ The dovecote To the east of the estate stands what is probably one of its most remarkable structures: an imposing dovecote, now without a roof, which still contains around 3,500 nesting boxes. This exceptional number bears witness to the importance and extent of the seigneurial estate of yesteryear and lends this building genuine heritage value. G/ The shed A shed measuring approximately 11 × 10 m completes this lovely complex. The estate spans a property of approximately 12 hectares (29 acres), entirely enclosed by walls totaling nearly 2 linear kilometers. Remarkably well-preserved and maintained, these walls constitute an exceptional heritage feature and provide the property with a level of privacy and seclusion that is highly sought after. To the south of the château, within these well-preserved walls, a vast terraced lawn, bordered by stone retaining walls, offers remarkable views from the château. It extends downward into an orchard featuring plum, cherry, apple, pear, and fig trees, as well as a vegetable garden, both of which are accessed via an elegant double-flight stone staircase. The succession of terraces, walls, and plantings creates a structured and perfectly harmonious landscape, whose geometric lines and vistas provide a particularly elegant and pleasant setting to contemplate. To the east, a pool area blends naturally into the park, situated right next to a grove that provides a shaded and intimate setting. The rest of the park unfolds in a more natural, wooded setting, traversed by a river fed by several major springs. The presence of these flowing waters, combined with the diversity of the landscape, gives the estate a truly unique geographical and scenic character and fully contributes to its rarity.

Listed castle Le Lion-d'Angers (49)

Réf.4739 : Renaissance chateau listed as a Historic Monument and 83 acres for sale in Anjou In Anjou, built in the countryside on the outskirts of a small village, stands this magnificent Renaissance property. A large avenue of lime trees leads to the old carriage entrance that precedes the main courtyard. The property is located in the north of Maine-et-Loire, in a preserved rural area, away from major traffic flows and easily accessible. The village is set in a landscape of hedgerows and farmland. The neighbouring towns provide everyday amenities. Angers, 35 km away, is within easy reach, offering a direct link to Paris (A11 motorway and TGV station for Paris in 1 hour 25 minutes). The whole property offers a discreet, stable and rural setting, characteristic of the Anjou region. Angers (population 160.000) is just 15 minutes away by car. Angers is the capital of the Anjou region, with all the shops and services you need (university hospital, universities, TGV train station providing a 1h30 hour link to Paris). The town centre is magnificent, with its narrow streets, the imposing silhouette of its 13th-century castle, and the parks and gardens in the heart of the town. The town has also been awarded the title of France's top green town and is a great place to live. In other words: the gentleness of Anjou. It is one of the smallest Renaissance-style chateau in France. Built of schist and tuffeau stone and covered with slate, it faces south/north. It has a total surface area of 800 sqm spread over three levels of approximately 230 sqm each, extended by three half-floors in the east wing. The upper floors are accessed via an impressive straight stone staircase, supported by buttress walls and covered with brick vaults with white stone coffers, as well as a wooden spiral staircase. The façades feature large windows with crossbars and mullions. The chateau's roofs are very varied, illustrating the architectural richness of the building: pavilion, pepperpot and imperial. One enters the residence through a low semi-circular door with pilasters: - On the ground floor: guard room (67 sqm, ceiling height: 3.63 m), library (33 sqm), dining room (38 sqm), kitchen (36 sqm), utility room (7.6 sqm), toilet and washbasin; On the mezzanine floor: bedroom (42 sqm) and bathroom (8 sqm). - Upstairs: living room with painted wood panelling (72 sqm, ceiling height 3.51 m), 3 bedrooms (35, 28, 18 sqm), one with en-suite bathroom, another with dressing room, office (24 sqm), bathroom and shower room (11 sqm), WC and dressing room (9 sqm); On the mezzanine floor: bedroom (42 sqm), bathroom/shower room and toilet (8.5 sqm), dressing room in the tower. - On the second floor: billiard room (29 sqm), upstairs lounge (27 sqm), 7 bedrooms (from 11 to 28 sqm), 1 shower room; On the mezzanine floor: bedroom (44 sqm), bathroom/shower room and WC (8 sqm), dressing room in the tower. Attic above, vaulted cellar including the boiler room under the west wing and semi-underground cellar under the east wing. The chateau is sold furnished; the complete list is to be determined with the owner. The quality of the building's exterior architecture is exceptional. The interior lives up to this impression with architectural features characteristic of large country houses. To name but a few, there is the beautiful straight staircase with open risers, the monumental fireplaces, the mullioned and transom windows, and the consistent and skilful use of high-quality materials (terracotta, wood panelling, cut stone for the ornamentation, etc.). The two painted rooms upstairs are admirable. The paintings were created in 1648 for the wedding of a former owner of the château: The first includes classical motifs such as foliage, crowned busts of Roman emperors, but also still lifes of flowers and fruit, landscapes of Anjou, etc. The second is known as the "chambre des Amours" (chamber of love) because of the motifs with which it is decorated. This building, on a human scale, has all the features of a large Renaissance château. Without excessive decoration or extravagance, it authentically embodies a large Anjou residence, with no lack of architectural richness. It is an extension in Haut-Anjou of the prestigious splendour of the Châteaux of the Loire. OUTBUILDINGS : They include a U-shaped courtyard comprising: - A 4-room building with 2 woodsheds and 2 chicken coops; - At right angles: a barn, a large garage (125 sqm), a 2-room caretaker's lodge (70 sqm), electric heating, in need of refurbishment; attics above; - At right angles: a dilapidated 70 sqm dwelling, then the old stables (saddle room and 6 stalls); attic above.

Castle Fougueyrolles (24)

At Fougueyrolles, in Périgord Pourpre, this characterful residence sits at the heart of a single, unified estate spanning nearly 39 hectares, where a stone-walled park, meadows, woodland and vineyards form a coherent whole within a gently rolling landscape. This territorial continuity is one of the property's greatest assets. The meadows, woods and vineyards trace out a rural landscape that offers the residence a setting both intimate and open, with beautiful views across the surrounding countryside. The château currently offers approximately 369 m² of liveable space. The reception rooms are generously proportioned, and several suites are already fitted out. The house retains a genuine character, with its original elements, fireplaces and spaces that still invite personal evolution of the place. A further 140 m² or so, currently requiring renovation, offer the possibility to expand and progressively reimagine the living spaces. Around the château, the outbuildings too tell the story of the estate. A former wine storage building, storage spaces, workshops and various annexes represent approximately 373 m² of adjoining dependencies, to which a further 86 m² of detached buildings are added. An agricultural shed of 435 m² completes this ensemble of particularly generous proportions. An independent caretaker's cottage of 77 m² of liveable space, with two bedrooms, living area and bathroom with WC, brings genuine autonomy to the property and can naturally support different life projects. The stone-walled park forms a setting around the residence before giving way to the lands that stretch on as a single unified expanse. Nearly 2 hectares of vines, planted with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, complete the meadows and woodlands and echo the viticultural identity of this terroir. The property thus lends itself to several ways of being imagined: a grand family home, a secondary residence, an entertainment venue or a hospitality project. The already-developed spaces, the areas to be renovated, and the diversity of the outbuildings offer genuine freedom to its future owner. Approximately 8 kilometres from shops, the train station and services, and 40 minutes from Bergerac and its airport, the estate thus combines the feeling of a property deeply rooted in the countryside with appreciable accessibility. What I love about this property: The sense of a true estate, with nearly 39 hectares in a single holding. The stone-walled park, which gives the château its intimacy and character. The diversity of buildings, which allows several uses around the residence to be imagined. The spaces still to be reimagined, which leave genuine freedom for the future owner. An estate to discover to fully appreciate its volumes, landscapes and possibilities. Annie PEZAT Agent, Maxwell-Baynes Christie's International Real Estate +33 (0)6 38 13 44 47
