An elegant chateau from the 18th and 19th centuries with six hectares of grounds, nestled beside Eawy forest in France’s Pays de Bray province, two hours from Paris. Roads through Eawy forest, then country lanes through hedge-lined meadows from the town of Saint-Saëns, lead to the village where the chateau is nestled. Beyond a calvary, a row of majestic plane trees edges the property. Then the estate comes into view. A church opposite watches over the grounds. Beside the entrance stands a building of red brick and sandstone. On the other side of the entrance, there is a characterful half-timbered house. Between these two structures, there is a sturdy wrought-iron double gate flanked by two yew hedges. It is positioned a long way from the buildings. From this gate, you can admire vistas on all sides. The chateau towers proudly in the middle of its tree-dotted grounds. The building was a hunting lodge at the end of the 18th century. Later, it was extended during the Bourbon Restoration, a period of French history that lasted from 1815 to 1830. The chateau is the successor to a seigneurial manor house that once stood here and that dated back to an unknown year. For 300 years, the dwelling belonged to the same family of landowners. The members of this family were nobles of the sword who served in the French king’s armies and later in the emperor’s armies. Some members of this family are now buried in the church that neighbours the property. During the July Monarchy, when Louis-Philippe I reigned in France, a marquis and knight built the two towers that flank the chateau and gave the dwelling its current appearance. That was when this grand house became today’s imposing edifice with a straight central section. The chateau’s architecture is neoclassical in style. It has a base course of dressed stone, walls of brickwork and stone, and rectangular windows that are evenly laid out in a symmetrical arrangement. It is crowned with a slate roof. To the south-east there is a wood store. The buildings mostly have slate roofs and walls of brick and stone. The relaxing grounds include many groves, a vegetable patch, an orchard, a pond and pastureland reserved for grazing.

Stunning 19th Century Château, newly renovated, 30 hectare park with lake and outbuildings. Nr Loches 37. Stunning 19th Century Château, recently renovated, surrounded by woodlands and park totalling 30 hectares. Peace and Privacy assured. Outbuildings with business potential, plus hunting licence for the estate. Not far from the charming royal city of Loches, and about 70 km from the city of Tours, with airport (served by Ryanair) and TGV links. This beautiful château has been found as far back in the archives as the 17th century. The estate was first registered in 1181 and then in 1239 it appears in texts, and it was once owned by the Abbey of Baugerais. The château was officially named as it is today in the 17th century. During the 19th century, the original building was added to, and this is what can be seen today. It included a lime kiln in 1880, which fell into disrepair around 1926. The current owners purchased the château in 2005. The property was dilapidated but habitable. It had not been touched for in excess of forty years, although the gardens and parks were in good condition, similar to today. The owners purchased the château with a view to fully refurbishing the property, as well as the outbuildings, in order to establish a family business. It was initially planned to host corporate events, weddings and a music recording studio for established record labels to hire as a location for bands to stay, develop, and record music for new albums. The refurbishment has just been completed to the Château, although the plan for the outbuildings did not happen due to family health issues. The works undertaken to the Château have been elaborate, with all aspects having been rebuilt or updated. A detailed list and additional photos/information are available upon request.
