Castle Frazé (28)

This historic estate presents an ideal opportunity for a large-scale hotel project. Built gradually between the 15th and 20th centuries, the property comprises five main buildings totaling 22 bedrooms and offering approximately 2,500 square meters of living space. Nestled near Chartres, a cathedral city and UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as the prestigious châteaux of Maintenon and Nogent-le-Rotrou, the property enjoys a strategic location. Situated in the southern Perche region, it is 10 minutes from the A10 motorway and extends over a majestic estate of approximately 42 hectares, including 23 hectares of woodland, 14 hectares of meadows, and a meticulously landscaped park. While the main structure of the estate is generally in good condition, the interiors require extensive restoration. Located on the edge of a small village, the château was built on the ruins of an earlier fortress destroyed during the Hundred Years' War. Two separate entrances provide access to the property: one, facing the village, is marked by a large wrought-iron gate leading to the former gatehouse, now converted into a spacious living room. The other entrance, opening onto the park, passes through a crenellated gatehouse surmounted by an imposing tower, nicknamed the ''water tower,'' and crosses a canal via a bridge. The buildings are arranged around a U-shaped courtyard enclosed by the Louis XVI pavilion and the outbuildings, offering breathtaking views of the park. The park itself, spanning 42 hectares, is distinguished by a monumental 200-meter terrace overlooking a verdant meadow and woodlands sheltering a variety of deciduous trees, intersected by a canal. The landscaping also includes topiary parterres of boxwood and yew, a majestic tree-lined avenue, and a one-hectare kitchen garden. The five main buildings each bear witness to several historical periods: - **The Village Pavilion**, built between the 16th and 18th centuries near the village. - **The Gatehouse or Keep**, combining elements from the 15th, 18th, and 20th centuries, linked by a medieval gallery dating from the 15th century; a residential wing was added in 1980. - **The Saint-François Tower**, dating from the 15th century. - **The Louis XVI Pavilion**, sometimes called the ''Renaissance House,'' to which is attached the La Cloche Tower, dating from the 16th century and modified in the 17th and 18th centuries. - **The outbuildings**, comprising buildings constructed between the 16th, 19th, and 20th centuries and featuring remarkable 16th-century timber frames. The location of this property is considered a major asset. Paris is only 120 kilometers away, and a motorway access point is available 16 kilometers away in the direction of the capital or 8 kilometers away in the direction of Le Mans. The neighboring town of Brou, located 8 kilometers away, offers all the necessary shops and services. Technically, the property benefits from a partial mains water supply and has a combined wastewater treatment system, including a septic tank and a connection to the public sewer system. Thus, this exceptional property combines historical heritage with potential for large-scale projects. The fees are to be paid by the seller.
