Ref.4654 : French chateau for sale in Normandy Just a stone's throw from the Grande Gouffern, Pin-au-Haras and Ecouves state-owned forests, on the outskirts of a small market town with a population of just 370, stands an elegant 18th-century château, an integral part of a much-loved local heritage. It has always been a family property, but it has also been the venue for a number of special events, often chosen for its elegance and rural setting. In addition to the daily needs largely covered by the nearby town of Argentan, this property is ideally located, offering rapid access to the road and motorway networks, as well as to the rail network. ..... A source of inspiration for those wishing to reach the capital in just three hours. In this land of rich farmland, apple trees, living springs and forests, nature exudes a gentle art of living and well-being that is recognised by all those who indulge in it for a trip, a holiday ... or a lifetime. Welcome to Normandy, in the heart of the Orne department... The chateau features a three-storey main building with a slate Mansard roof adorned with dormer windows with curved pediments. The windows are large and arranged in ‘bays’, perfectly symmetrical in keeping with the harmony of the ‘grand siècle’... On the south-east side, the property is set back from a courtyard of honour comprising two very fine outbuildings facing each other, interspersed with an attractive circular lawn. Two imposing stone pillars with capitals nobly mark the main entrance. A culvert spans an old ‘wolf's leap’ that is sometimes flooded.... On the north-west side, the facade has been enhanced by two elegant wings set forward from the main building, creating a harmonious H-shaped structure. The central section features a terrace facing a ornamental pool with a fountain. An espalier garden, adorned with boxwood, plunges the eye towards a wooded horizon, as if to confirm the French-style layout. With an interior surface area of approx. 600 sqm (over 3 stories, the property is laid out as follows: Ground floor: central entrance via a small vestibule leading on the right to a hallway leading to a toilet and a storage area. Access to the cellar. Passage to a kitchen (26 sqm) with monumental stone fireplace. Back kitchen of 6 sqm. Dining room to follow (30 sqm), with outside access. To the left of the hallway: living room (28 sqm) - Cabochon floor - Marble fireplace. Direct access to a study (6.5 sqm). Small lounge/library (18 sqm) - Herringbone parquet flooring - Marble corner fireplace. Large lounge (31 sqm) - tinted herringbone parquet floor - marble fireplace - mouldings and decorations. In the central part, linking the large lounge and the dining room, tiled gallery (32 sqm) - Access to the terrace. Access to a beautiful wooden spiral staircase leading to the upper floors - Cabochon flooring - Return to the main entrance. Average ceiling height of 3 m. First floor: Landing with through corridor leading to 2 large bedrooms on the right with en suite bathrooms/WC - herringbone parquet flooring - marble fireplace. Separate shower room / washbasin / WC - teak floor. Small bedroom with adjoining dressing room. Staircase leading to the 2nd floor. To the left of the landing, through corridor leading to 3 bedrooms, 2 of which with en-suite bathroom/WC. Clearing and dressing room. Average ceiling height of 3 m. Second floor: Landing with corridor leading to the right to 2 large bedrooms with fireplaces and en suite bathrooms/wc, a small bedroom and a storeroom. To the left of the landing, corridor leading to 2 bedrooms, 1 small bedroom and a bathroom/wc. Cellar: partial cellar of approx. 60 sqm, situated under the east wing. External entrance via the gable. On either side of the château, the main courtyard features two beautiful stone outbuildings, rendered in lime and covered in flat tiles, which have been restored to a very high standard. These outbuildings have been restored to a very high standard and have been converted for events purposes, making them a major asset in terms of potential. West outbuilding: known as the ‘orangery’, it originally consisted of former sheds, cart shed, workshop and coachman's accommodation. Completely renovated and refurbished, they now form a magnificent reception room opening onto two large stone terraces, designed in 3 sections, one of which houses the caterer. The space is flooded with light, thanks to the large, elegant bay windows and high ceilings. Two handsome fluted columns with capitals, niches and wall lights set off the ochre-coloured exposed stone walls, perfectly matched to the large stone floor tiles and the period joist ceiling. The former carriage house, accessed via two ashlar carriage doors, is a space that was historically used to house sideboards. It has a beautiful cabochon floor. The first floor comprises two vast cathedral-style rooms with exposed roofing framework, which could potentially be converted into two independent flats. GARDEN Shed: situated around fifty metres from the property, to the east, this small stone and brick shed..... is perfect for children! THE CHAPEL: the remains of a good-sized former chapel, of which only the high walls remain. SOUTH OUTBUILDING: Attractive, exposed stone building with a flat tile roof, built around a 57 sqm reception room with an old, perfectly preserved bread oven. A small annexe is currently being converted, with plans for a small kitchen, shower and WC. Reservations have been made. An extension to the reception room, of lesser height, has a room used as a storeroom. In the gable, a lovely sunny space, suggesting to the artists their future studio.... The beauty of the park lies in its diversity, with each point of the compass offering a variety of pastoral settings. The green thumb of the British owners has resulted in an abundance of flowers in the surrounding area, which is nevertheless a well-ordered mess in the French style. Wisteria of all kinds has also flourished on the facades, sometimes becoming somewhat invasive. Further out, numerous species of century-old trees provide a colourful backdrop, in whose shade roe deer have taken up residence, much to the delight of eyes in search of wilderness. A gap on the north side reveals a beautiful avenue of lime trees, leading to the village a few hundred metres away. This noble access is rarely used, although it is perfectly passable. Further to the east, towards the ruins of the chapel, a large pasture of just over one hectare provides ample food for the two horses that graze there. An orchard of around 2,500 sqm, enclosed by walls on its eastern side, is home to a number of ageing apple and fruit trees..... Finally, a large 10 acres parcel of land remains to the south, off the main road; this parcel of land is the subject of a neighbourhood agreement for maintenance purposes. Together, they form a land parcel of 25 acres, with no easements or nuisances, except for the occasional furtive daily crossing of the nearby railway line.

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.

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.

13th-Century Medieval Fortress – Listed Historic Monument (MH / ISMH) Overlooking the fertile plains of Limagne and the foothills of the Livradois, east of Clermont-Ferrand and close to Billom, the Château de Mauzun rises from a basalt volcanic outcrop, a timeless sentinel of Auvergne’s history. Originally a fortified motte that became one of the principal strongholds of the Counts of Auvergne as early as the 10th century, Mauzun fully entered the history of France in the early 13th century. In 1210, King Philip II of France annexed Auvergne to the Kingdom of France and placed Mauzun under the authority of the Bishops of Clermont, contributing to its strategic development and prominence. Built according to the principles of the greatest medieval fortresses, Mauzun is remarkable for its exceptional scale: nearly 900 metres of ramparts protecting a vast lower bailey of approximately 3 hectares; an intermediate enceinte punctuated by 16 towers enclosing the outer courtyard; and a monumental keep measuring 50 metres on each side, flanked by four corner towers linked by massive curtain walls, with several levels of wall walks. In the 16th century, the fortress was enhanced with elements of comfort, notably a northern curtain wall opened with large sculpted windows, offering spectacular panoramic views. For almost four centuries, Mauzun stood as one of the symbols of power in Auvergne and remained a coveted site during every period of unrest. Gradually abandoned and partially dismantled, the château regained its unified ownership in the 19th century. In the 20th century, an initial restoration programme was undertaken, particularly the Captaincy Tower, converted into residential accommodation. Further works were resumed in the 21st century and remain to be completed. Today, Mauzun stands as an open-air lesson in medieval military architecture, a site of rare evocative power. Underground passages, defensive systems, a mysterious cistern, and its bold setting atop an ancient volcano continue to inspire research, reflection, and discovery. More than a real estate project, the Château de Mauzun is a heritage to be preserved — a place to be understood and respected. It is intended for a purchaser driven by a passion for history and architecture, willing to commit to a long-term vision in the service of preservation and transmission.

Presented by the Private Desk of Côte d’Azur Sotheby’s International Realty, the Domaine des Aspres is one of the largest and most prestigious private estates on the French Riviera. Nestled in the commune of Biot, just a few kilometers from the iconic Cap d’Antibes, this extraordinary property spans an impressive 182 hectares of preserved natural landscape, offering absolute privacy and rare proximity to the region’s major points of interest. Perfectly located, this unique estate lies just 3 kilometers from the Mediterranean Sea and less than 10 kilometers from Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport—an exceptional level of accessibility for a property of this scale. Antibes, Cannes, Monaco, Sophia Antipolis, and Valbonne are all nearby, placing the Domaine in an ideal balance between seclusion, nature, and the vibrant Riviera lifestyle. At the heart of the estate stands a magnificent Belle Époque château, built in the 1920s by Léon Bailby, a prominent figure of the French press. Designed by architect Messiah—also known for the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and the Palais Masséna in Nice—the château is a refined testament to the Riviera’s architectural elegance of the era. Offering approximately 1,700 sq.m. of living space, it is set within 40 hectares of wooded parkland in the southern part of the estate, the area closest to the sea. The château features fine stonework, a stately courtyard, multiple rooftops, and impressive towers—combining noble presence with timeless harmony. Extensively renovated in 2010, the château offers modern comforts and high-end finishes, including air conditioning, high-speed Wi-Fi, marble bathrooms, and carefully restored original paintings. The service quarters remain to be refurbished, offering customization potential for the future owner’s vision. The estate’s outdoor spaces are equally captivating. The château is surrounded by beautifully designed gardens with diverse influences: a grand 2,000 sq.m. French formal garden to the south, a Spanish-style garden to the east, and stunning Italian gardens to the southwest. The grounds feature a poetic sequence of natural terraces, stairways, and ornamental pools, enhancing the serene atmosphere of the property. The gardens are serviced by an automated irrigation system and discreet underground lighting. Access to the château is via a private, secure, and secluded driveway. One of the estate’s most iconic features is its Olympic-size swimming pool—an art-deco masterpiece. Measuring 25 meters in length, it was the very first pool of its kind on the French Riviera and was inaugurated in the 1930s by Marlene Dietrich. It later served as a training facility for French athletes ahead of the 1936 Olympic Games. Today, it is accompanied by an elegant 80 sq.m. pool house and a triple diving platform. The Domaine also includes several secondary residences, some located in buildable zones. These include Les Oliviers, La Cigalière, and La Maguelone—classified in zone N—as well as Les Cygnes and Le Paradou, located in UEC zones, offering opportunities for renovation or development, depending on the buyer’s plans. The Domaine des Aspres is a true sanctuary—where heritage, nature, and understated luxury exist in perfect harmony. This rare property offers its future owners an exceptional quality of life, in one of the most coveted settings on the French Riviera. With its scale, heritage, amenities, and strategic location, it represents a one-of-a-kind opportunity on the international real estate market.

Ref.4637 : French castle for sale with its dungeon In the heart of a tourist region, between Futuroscope, Angles-sur-l'Anglin (listed as one of France's most beautiful villages) and the Creuse valley, close to La Roche Posay, an internationally-renowned spa resort, this château in a dominant position, nestled in a peaceful rural setting in the immediate vicinity of the Brenne Regional Park, benefits from an exceptional natural setting. It combines the prestige of a place steeped in history with a rare location, just a few minutes from all amenities. Fast access to Châtellerault and Poitiers (TGV station, airport). The château comprises a small pavilion to the north, which appears to date back to the 15th century, and a second, more imposing building, arranged in a barely perceptible L- or even U-shape. The whole rests on a platform supported by buttresses. The oldest pavilion, nestling in the northeast corner, takes the form of a tall square tower with a flat-tiled hip roof. This building has preserved its fine chamfered openings with projecting sills. On its southeast corner, it is flanked by a hexagonal tower with an elegant flat-tiled pyramidal roof, also featuring remarkable openings, including a magnificent window with an accolade lintel adorned with a carved escutcheon. The main body of the château is a rectangular dwelling topped by a flat-tiled gable roof. The south-east façade features 3 bays on the first level and 5 on the second, while a small, solitary dormer lights up the attic. At the north-west corner, a circular tower with a conical flat-tiled roof and half-roof completes the ensemble. A similar tower rises not far from the south corner and is linked to the dwelling by a lower, single-storey wing with a canted slate roof and an attic storey, lit by elegant triangular pediment dormers. This wing appears to have been built at a later date than the rest of the building. The layout of the two round towers suggests that they were an integral part of the original château enclosure, whose main dwelling would have been represented by the aforementioned north pavilion. In the last light of day, the warm hue of the tiles lends the building a particularly welcoming atmosphere. THE CHATEAU: Offering 430 sqm of living space, the chateau seduces with its authentic cachet and generous volumes. A beautiful porch opens onto the charming garden. On the ground floor : an entrance hall with dressing room opens onto a convivial and functional fitted kitchen, where you can enjoy your meals; a dining room, embellished with wood panelling and a fireplace, opens onto the valley via a balcony terrace; a light-filled living room, also with a fireplace and refined parquet flooring; a bedroom with bathroom and toilet, offering every comfort on the ground floor; a magnificent library with fireplace; storage rooms and a beautiful staircase complete this level. First floor : 5 bedrooms, including 2 with en suite bathrooms, and two others with bathroom and toilet; separate toilet; vast attic for conversion, offering real potential for extension. Cellar and boiler room. THE DONGEON: The 13th-century keep, listed as a Historic Monument, comprises 4 levels of around 35 sqm each. In need of renovation. It offers numerous possibilities for creating additional living space. The outbuildings include: A small chapel converted into a woodshed; A large main building, comprising a janitor's cottage, a storage barn and two enclosed garages (one with electric door and electricity); A vast barn formerly used for agricultural storage; A greenhouse; Small roofed shelters..
