Ref. 4718: castle with guest house for sale 40km from Limoges (Haute-Vienne department). The property is situated close to Châlus, a small Limousin town renowned as the place where Richard the Lionheart met his end. It lies in the département of Haute-Vienne, 40 km south-west of Limoges, its Limoges-Bénédictins railway station (Paris–Toulouse line), and an international airport, Limoges-Bellegarde, which offers regular flights to Lyon, Marseille, London, Bristol, Leeds, Manchester and the Midlands. The area, which forms part of the Périgord–Limousin Regional Natural Park, is known as the Pays des Feuillardiers, after the craftsmen who traditionally produced chestnut-wood hoops (feuillards) used for barrel-making. It is a lively region whose economic activity is centred on forestry, agriculture and tourism. Its gently undulating landscapes, cloaked in deep forests and interlaced with numerous streams, are especially appreciated by walkers, sports enthusiasts, river anglers and lovers of history. Both local residents and those who have settled here from elsewhere — including a vibrant British community — enjoy an excellent quality of life. The château presents itself as the harmonious composition of three buildings from different periods. On the ground floor, approached through the small North door, one finds to the right the hall, an antechamber, the kitchen, and a passageway leading to the utility–boiler room and WC, the television room, and the music room. This is where the arched doorway giving access to the terrace and park is located. From the music room, a few steps lead to the reception rooms — the drawing rooms and dining room — two remarkable spaces distinguished by their magnificent decorative features. In addition, both the drawing room and the music room are equipped with wood-burning stoves. Returning to the half-landing overlooking the entrance hall, one reaches the upper floors via the majestic oak staircase. On the first floor, arranged over two half-levels, there is a study–library and five bedrooms, three of which have their own bathroom and WC, while the remaining two share a bathroom. On the second floor, reached via a winding staircase, there are two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and WCs, together with an attic. Ouitbuildings : Separated from the château by a lime-tree avenue and a long natural hedge, an extensive Limousin-style barn contains a self-contained two-storey dwelling, suitable for use as a guest cottage or caretaker’s house. It comprises a sitting room, a kitchen–dining room, four bedrooms, and two shower rooms with WCs. In addition to the cottage, this impressive 60-metre barn offers, on the lower level: a wood store, a garage, a stable with four loose boxes, and various workshops. The upper level consists of large open spaces, inviting the future owners to give free rein to their imagination. A small separate pavilion, situated at the western corner of the barn, was originally a laundry. It has been fully restored and converted into a charming artist’s studio. Lastly, adjoining the sixteenth-century wing, a vast pergola set on a large south-facing tiled terrace provides an additional living area complementing the château. Access to the property is through an imposing gateway set into the wall that encloses part of its perimeter. The château, positioned on a small promontory, overlooks a vast English-style park that slopes gently down towards a stream meandering through the estate’s woodland. A delightful “English river” (a man-made water feature) fed by a natural spring, together with a generously sized swimming pool, further enhances the grounds. Set slightly apart, a tree-lined meadow would be well suited to accommodating horses. The estate extends to almost eight and a half hectares in total.

Exclusive! In the heart of Provence and discreetly nestled a few steps from the port of Sanary-sur-Mer, between TOULON and MARSEILLE, with easy access by road, stands majestically this castle, a true historical witness since its creation in the 14th century. The curtain walls, old vaulted arch and watchtowers evoke its past as a religious building (chapel) and agricultural (old mill), while in the 19th century, this place disrupted an entire economy and became the cradle of the AOC BANDOL. An emblematic place of the region and residence of illustrious personalities such as Hugues Rose (General). The last modifications date from the 20th century, thus preserving this regional and French emblem through the ages. The castle, with a living area of approximately 800 m2, faces south and extends over a park of 6800 m2. Several distinct spaces blend harmoniously: on the château side, two large courtyards shaded by two centuries-old plane trees, on the other, unspoiled nature, with its immense medlar trees, separated by a bucolic garden that inspires nostalgia and relaxation. The château extends over three levels, organized around the 100 m2 winery where time seems to have stood still. You can still smell the aromas of wood aged by grapes. You can still hear the bottling of liters, the movement of the staff in the middle of September in a damp coolness that characterizes such a special dawn. A neglected machinery is displayed as if in a museum. A rounded tower adds character to the architecture in the southeast section. On the ground floor, the entrance hall offers a glimpse of the old barrels of the master's home. Each room on this level offers numerous layout possibilities. A first kitchen and a dining room open onto an outdoor space ideal for al fresco dining. A large living room adorned with moldings and cement tiles seduces with its charm. The ascent to the first floor encourages contemplation, with its light-filled windows offering breathtaking views of the park. A cloakroom, ideal for exhibiting works of art, leads to one of the key rooms of the house: the study, all vaults culminating at 4 meters in height and its stained-glass windows, for the sake of privacy, in the past, many geopolitical and economic decisions were made. Five bedrooms are located on this level, as well as several water points. The top floor offers great potential for development, with the possibility of renovating seven bedrooms and several bathrooms, at least. To the west of the castle, an imposing terrace of approximately 70 m2 opens this monument to the longing views of the Sanary hills. To finish in apotheosis with this keep, this central round tower, serving as a lookout, which offers a 360o view and gently lets us rest our eyes on its big sister of the Port. In short, this property offers a rare opportunity to write one's name in the history of the region and the country while benefiting from an exceptional setting. This Sanaryen jewel with undeniable charisma awaits careful renovation.

And if time had stopped... just for you. In the heart of Lot-et-Garonne, nestled in 17 hectares of nature, this fully restored medieval castle offers a rare living environment, between history and contemporary comfort. Ancient stones, gothic openings, period fireplaces... the vast salons open onto the valley and invite to receive as to contemplate. Outside, life flows to the rhythm of nature: panoramic terrace, park, swimming pool and jacuzzi in height with breathtaking views. Eight en-suite bedrooms welcome family and guests, while the reinvented pigeon loft offers an independent space full of charm. More than a property, a unique place to live... an experience apart.

Overlooking the Rance Valley from a naturally defensive and perfectly preserved position, the estate enjoys an exceptional setting, entirely free from disturbance. The terraced parkland unfolds a spectacular plunging view, offering deep and ever-changing perspectives across the valley, between meadows, woodland and distant horizons, within a protected environment. The manor house, the historic heart of the property, embodies a restrained yet powerful architectural style, characteristic of late Renaissance Breton seigneurial residences. Built in local stone, it is distinguished by its balanced proportions, regular fenestration and steeply pitched slate roofs. In immediate proximity, an independent chapel of remarkable purity of line enhances the estate’s singular and heritage character. The outbuildings are harmoniously arranged around the manor, contributing to the overall coherence of the property: former stone dependencies, partly converted into living space, along with annexes and technical buildings, offer significant potential for reinterpretation. An independent caretaker’s house completes the ensemble. The landscaped grounds, structured in successive terraces, follow the natural topography and reveal a sequence of distinct settings. The relationship to the landscape is ever-present: each vantage point captures the valley in a commanding panoramic perspective, lending the property a truly contemplative yet sovereign dimension. At the crossroads of history, architecture and nature, this is a rare estate, destined for an ambitious vision — whether as a family residence, a reception domain, or a heritage asset to be revealed.
