France's rich countryside is home to numerous grand castles. If you like the sound of living like royalty in your own piece of French history, buying a castle in France is the way forward. Whether you are in the market for a luxury family home, or a property to serve as an events venue, there's a perfect French castle for you.
Château of approximately 590 m² of living space, featuring two towers in very good overall condition, along with outbuildings totaling around 600 m². The main building is accessed via a tree-lined driveway or directly into the courtyard of honour by a smaller lane that runs along the property. The former entrance is quite impressive, marked by four stone pillars. Upon arrival, one is struck by the abundance of century-old trees, among the most noble species—cedars of Lebanon, magnolias, plane trees, and oaks. The outbuildings include a 125 m² apartment, a 40 m² studio, and a 140 m² reception hall suitable for events. There are five horse boxes, stables, and paddocks. The estate also features a pond, a basin (former swimming pool 14x5 m), a wood shed, and garages. Inside the château, the ground floor offers a spacious 50 m² entrance hall, a large living room with fireplace, a dining room, a modern fully equipped kitchen, a technical room, an office, and a bedroom with bathroom. The floors are finished in terracotta tiles or parquet. On the first floor, a long corridor leads to an office, a dressing room, six bedrooms, and five bathrooms with toilets, all with wooden floors and a balcony beneath the pediment. The second floor features a large bedroom with shower room and toilet. There is also a 1-hectare building plot (with the possibility to develop a 600 m² structure). The park and paddocks, the riding arena (60x20 m), and the option to create additional boxes make the property ideal for an equestrian activity, supported by abundant well water. However, it could also serve other purposes, as the reception hall in the outbuildings—complete with toilets, cold room, and laundry area—is perfect for weddings or other commercial events. The property is located 5 minutes from the town of Maubourguet and its shops, and 30 minutes from Tarbes, with its international airport and TGV station. Ski resorts are just one hour away. 15 minutes from Marcillac Jazz Festival. A peaceful estate, free from noise pollution, set in the idyllic countryside of a small village.

Located in the Jura region, less than 15 minutes from the A39 motorway and a TGV station, this superb 15th-century château was renovated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This property offers considerable potential given its layout, surroundings, and the space it provides through its numerous outbuildings. The château, of manageable size, is equally suitable as a primary or secondary residence, or for a bed and breakfast project. Its size, interior layout, and magnificent attic can accommodate 7 to 8 luxury bedrooms, in addition to a private area for the owners. Beneath the château are magnificent vaulted cellars, but above all, a fully equipped and renovated space (over 1000 m²) ideal for an event and/or restaurant business. A second property, formerly a mill and more recently a restaurant, adjoins the château and is already operational; this property could also be used to create additional bedrooms. A six-room gatehouse marks the entrance to the château, along with outbuildings and garages. This superb property boasts a swimming pool with a pool house. A stream with its canal and a crystal-clear pond complete the picture. All this on over 7 hectares. This is a real opportunity for tourism-related projects (bed and breakfast, weddings, family reunions). There is also the possibility of adding a wine-growing operation (AOC-classified region).

Historic Château on the Outskirts of Toulouse Only 20 minutes from the historic centre of Toulouse and 5 minutes from Balma, this remarkable historic property offers an increasingly rare privilege: the tranquillity and privacy of the countryside while remaining closely connected to the Pink City. Rooted in Toulouse’s history for several centuries, the château was once home to prominent local families. This heritage can still be felt today through its generous proportions, elegant reception rooms and the natural sense of a house designed to welcome family and guests across generations. The current owners have continued this legacy through an extensive programme of restoration and careful maintenance. Double glazing, improved insulation, modernised technical systems, air-conditioned bedrooms and the creation of several suites now provide genuine contemporary comfort, thoughtfully integrated without compromising the historic character of the residence. The château offers 13 bedrooms, generous reception rooms and beautiful, light-filled living spaces. It stands within approximately 13 hectares of parkland and grounds, providing remarkable privacy and the feeling of being far removed from city life, despite Toulouse being only a short drive away. More than simply a château, Mondouzil is above all a complete family estate. Its substantial outbuildings include a large independent six-room family house, a caretaker’s house, garages, workshops and various ancillary buildings. A private chapel, swimming pool and tennis court complete the property. A rare combination of heritage, family life, space and proximity to Toulouse, with its leading schools, international airport and extensive amenities all within easy reach.

Ref.4786: Vast 880-acre estate with its château and rental properties in the Loiret department This splendid estate, covering more than 880 acres (350 hectares), unfolds at the gates of a charming village, just a few kilometers from Orléans, at the edge of Sologne and Orléanais. Nestled in a preserved natural environment, it benefits from a peaceful and authentic setting. The village, with around 800 inhabitants, is charming for its typically Loire Valley character. It offers a pleasant living environment while being within easy reach of shops, schools, and services in nearby towns, all accessible in less than 5 kilometers. Not far away, Orléans, classified as a City of Art and History, displays all the dynamism and influence of a regional metropolis. Traversed by the Loire, the royal river inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list, the city lies at the heart of the prestigious Loire Valley, famous for its remarkable landscapes and iconic chateaux. It offers a full range of shops, services, cultural institutions, and infrastructure, meeting both everyday needs and the pleasures of discovery. Its privileged location, about an hour from Paris, further enhances its appeal, allowing for a perfect balance between life in the open air and easy access to the capital. Thus, the property strikes a rare balance between generous nature and the immediate proximity to a vibrant and connected urban center. This rural yet strategic location gives the entire estate a privileged character, making it a highly sought-after and exceptional property. The property is centred around an elegant Neo-Louis XIII-style château, built of brick and enhanced by corner quoins and limestone window and door frames. The building is topped with a hipped slate roof. Facing north-south, the residence has a harmonious and balanced architecture, consisting of a slightly protruding central section with a staircase and terrace, flanked by two side wings. It rises over two main levels punctuated by thirteen bays, topped by an attic floor pierced by dormer windows with rounded and triangular pediments, giving the whole a classic and refined appearance. With approximately 660 sqm of living space, the château is laid out as follows: On the ground floor, the main entrance opens onto: To the west, a corridor leading to a landing marked by the start of a monumental stone staircase. This level features a small lounge of approximately 20 sqm with a remarkable ceiling height of 4.5 metres, a large lounge of 32.5 sqm, a cloakroom and toilets. To the east, a large 47 sqm dining room, extended by a 22.5 sqm lounge. A landing with a staircase also leads to a 33 sqm library and a service entrance, allowing for smooth circulation between the reception areas. On the first floor, organised around a long central corridor leading to: To the west, two bedrooms measuring 24 and 28 sqm, a bathroom and a room with a staircase providing access to the accommodation in the outbuildings. To the east are three additional bedrooms (22, 23 and 24.5 sqm), a study, two bathrooms, separate toilets and a hallway with a service staircase. On the second floor, there are several furnished rooms, including bedrooms, a billiard room and a bathroom. A partial cellar, accessible from the outside, completes the property. It houses an old oil-fired generator, now out of service, as well as various technical rooms. OUTBUILDINGS : The numerous outbuildings contribute greatly to the character and potential of the estate. Most of them have been converted into rental accommodation and form a coherent whole, structured around a large communal courtyard. 1) A large U-shaped outbuilding Located in the western extension of the chateau, this complex is built in traditional masonry with plaster rendering, embellished with brick and limestone window and door frames, and covered with a synthetic slate roof. It houses an annex for the owners' use as well as eleven rental units. The annex: With a surface area of approximately 385 sqm, this annex offers generous volumes and a comfortable layout. On the ground floor, to the west: kitchen opening onto the living room, a lounge with a fireplace, a boiler room, a bedroom with en-suite shower room.

Upstairs, the western section, accessible via a stone staircase, leads to a landing with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. One room remains to be fitted out, with unfinished floors and walls, while a second already has a washbasin, bathtub and toilet, although it is not yet fully completed. The eastern section, accessible via a separate staircase from the reception area, consists of three rooms to be converted. The entire structure is weatherproof, with the utilities installed and insulation already in place under the roof, although the perimeter walls still need to be insulated. The property is therefore both functional and pleasant, offering a comfortable living environment, although the upstairs has not been fully finished.

To the south, the view opens onto a vast meadow offering beautiful visual depth, extending into a large forest covering more than 642 acres (260 hectares). This wooded area, managed in accordance with a simple management plan, is composed of the following proportions: - Simple coppice covering approximately 230 acres (93 hectares); - Coppice with reserves covering approximately 42 acres (17 hectares); - Coppice with reserves in conversion covering approximately 104 acres (42 hectares); - Deciduous high forest covering approximately 49 acres (20 hectares); - Coniferous high forest covering approximately 170 acres (69 hectares); - Mixed coniferous high forest and coppice covering approximately 30 acres (12 hectares); Simple coppice: These stands are composed of birch, oak, chestnut and black locust. Chestnut remains the main species. Coppice with reserves: These stands are composed of a hazel understorey with reserves of pedunculate oak and sessile oak. The plots affected by this type of stand are mostly composed of large woods. Hardwood high forests: These are mainly composed of sessile oak. Softwood high forests: These are composed of Corsican pine and Scots pine. Mixtures of softwood high forests and coppice forests: These stands are mainly composed of chestnut trees for coppice, with Scots pine reserves making up the coniferous part of these stands. The particularly rich and well-preserved biotope favours the presence of abundant wildlife, notably wild boar and deer, which are regularly observed in the area, making it a de facto hunting ground. In addition to this already remarkable ensemble, there are just over 198 acres (80 hectares) of agricultural land, free of any leases, as well as a solar farm covering around 50 acres (20 hectares), which completes this vast, contiguous site, ideally situated on the outskirts of Orléans.

Perched atop a quaint village, a mere 20-minute journey from Angoulême, this exquisite château, a 15th-century marvel, enjoys the prestigious status of a Historic Monument. Encircled by ancient stone fortifications, it is set amidst a picturesque domain of fields, forests, and agricultural land, presenting a unique chance to acquire a piece of French heritage that has been meticulously preserved. Entering through an impressive 17th-century fortified entrance, recognized as one of the region’s most distinguished, the château spans roughly 850 m² of elegantly restored living space, maintaining numerous original architectural elements. The northern exterior exhibits a medieval ambiance with its towers, defensive gaps, and small towers supported by sturdy buttresses, while the south side, revamped in the 19th century, showcases a romantic 'Troubadour Gothic' style with intricate masonry and elaborate Gothic fenestration. A helical stone staircase in a polygonal tower links the upper stories, revealing expansive views of the verdant environs. Inside, the château features: • A domed entryway, opulent reception halls, dining rooms, and culinary spaces distributed over four floors. • 9 sleeping chambers, 3 washrooms, and supplementary living quarters. • A subterranean level housing wine cellars, service rooms, and workspaces. • Attic areas and adaptable spaces in the roof. The grounds host several auxiliary structures: a historic stable complex with an outdoor staircase, a sizable barn, a guardian’s dwelling, ateliers, and secondary buildings. An ancient square pigeon house stands atop a prayer room on the lower level. An early Romanesque church, once serving the local parish, enhances the estate’s architectural and spiritual essence. Listed as a Historic Monument, protected elements include the château and church’s external walls and roofs, the pigeon house, the grand entryway, and the churchyard, which contains archaeological sites. An estate of remarkable distinction and magnitude, perfectly suited for a private home, cultural sanctuary, or conservation venture, all set against a serene, scenic backdrop with convenient city access.

The former staff quarters, located within the attic space, offer generous volumes suitable for the incorporation of more contemporary standards of comfort. - A caretaker’s house (southern building) of approximately 103 sqm, comprising three bedrooms and a reception room. Whilst functional, the property would benefit from refurbishment.
