Castle Valence (26)

Exclusive Listing – MAGNIFICENT HOLIDAY ROTUNDA ON AN ISLAND IN A FLOWING RIVER – Built on ancient and medieval foundations and restored in the 19th century. Rare 87-hectare estate in a single, unbroken parcel, free of occupancy and partly enclosed. A property with over a thousand years of history, featuring magnificent century-old trees, extensive outbuildings, and approximately 6,000 m² of built space. Located near Valence, in the Drôme region of historic Dauphiné. At the end of a majestic 300-meter avenue lined with century-old plane trees, this romantic medieval château, imbued with a fairy-tale atmosphere, stands on an island encircled by water-filled moats. Hidden from view, it reveals itself only at the last moment in a dramatic and picturesque manner, nestled among tall trees, through a gate and across a bridge, beyond a neo-Gothic gatehouse next to its chapel. Spectacularly restored in the 19th century to become a comfortable and original leisure residence. Two smaller towers are attached to the large keep tower. This keep, originally hollow around an inner courtyard open to the outside, is believed to follow the layout of an ancient villa, with its atrium centered around a spring still visible in the château's cellar. Set within a rare estate of 87 hectares, including 80 hectares in a single block, free of leases and partially enclosed, this château, with its highly distinctive appearance, rises romantically among large trees near its extensive outbuildings arranged around two courtyards. Two large arches mark the majestic entrance, leading into an impressive two-level hall illuminated by a vast glass roof, topped by an original Italian-style loggia. Structured by a magnificent and theatrical carved wooden gallery, this cathedral-like hall features superb neo-Renaissance heraldic painted décor and leads to the various ground-floor rooms: a large dining room with painted ceilings and wood paneling, a smaller dining room with a ceramic stove and paneling, and a fine 19th-century main staircase replacing a former medieval spiral staircase. There is also a service staircase, a bathroom, and WC. A northern service entrance with stone flooring and WC. A large kitchen and five sculleries with stone floors, antique stone sinks, and marble slabs. A grand staircase with 19th-century wrought-iron railing leads to the first floor. The gallery overlooking the hall provides access to several reception rooms and is adorned with a heraldic ribbed vault window. A large Napoléon III-style salon with marble fireplace, paneling, herringbone parquet flooring, moldings, and a balcony overlooking the moat. A smaller Napoléon III salon with marble fireplace and Versailles parquet. Another salon with marble fireplace, paneling, overmantels, and moldings. Four bedrooms, two washrooms, WC, some featuring beautiful marble fireplaces, overmantels, fine parquet flooring, and woodwork. Service staircase. On the second floor, a large medieval-style hall with billiards and library opens onto the southeast loggia on two levels beneath a large arch overlooking the moat, with a superb 19th-century polychrome glass roof and wrought-iron balustrade. Six bedrooms: four large bedrooms with fine 18th- or 19th-century marble fireplaces (some polychrome), decorated overmantels, and beautiful views of the moat; two alcove bedrooms; one bedroom with exposed beams and Versailles parquet; one simpler bedroom. A bathroom, two wash points, and a WC. Numerous cupboards, mezzanines, and hidden passages. On the third floor: eleven bedrooms, some opening outside, others onto the covered loggia; including two particularly fine rooms (one with an 18th-century marble fireplace, one with double alcoves), a bathroom, WC, a large tower bedroom, and a laundry room. On the fourth floor: a vast attic beneath the roof structure, regularly treated against wood-boring insects and in good condition. Large vaulted stone cellars with an ancient spring. A neo-Gothic chapel on the edge of the moat. A neo-Gothic gatehouse. A beautiful 18th-century wrought-iron gate. To the side of the château, extensive 19th-century outbuildings arranged around two courtyards: four independent dwellings, including one three-bedroom unit in good condition (vacant), one four-bedroom unit with two bathrooms (currently rented), one four-bedroom unit to restore, and one three-bedroom unit to restore. Orangery, four garages, stables, dovecote, very large barns, and a former silkworm farm with remarkable volumes. Approximately 2,700 sqm footprint over two levels.

Castle Joyeuse (07)

Just 6 km from amenities, the château is located in a village in the heart of Lower Ardèche, already Mediterranean in its climate and landscapes. This peaceful region, on the edge of the Cévennes, offers a rare natural setting, with forests, plains, and vineyards, all bathed in Mediterranean light. The estate, in a single block, extends over 19.3 hectares, providing a preserved environment and great tranquility. This Renaissance château, whose origins date back to the 14th century, was transformed at the end of the 15th century into a true château of pleasure, with its south-facing façade, numerous mullioned windows with interior wooden shutters, and a corbelled tower to the west. Its central hexagonal tower houses a spiral staircase that lends rare elegance to the whole. The property is partially listed in the Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments (ISMH). With 550 m² of buildings, including 400 m² of living space, the château offers: - A large living room with exposed beam ceiling and adjoining library, as well as two additional reception rooms. - Two kitchens, including a vaulted summer kitchen on the ground floor, recently refurbished, as well as the main kitchen with adjoining dining room. - Seven bedrooms, including a master suite with Versailles-style parquet flooring and an antechamber. - Four magnificent fireplaces, stone floors, terracotta tiles, and period parquet. - A secondary access via a stone walkway connecting the second floor to a private parking area on the estate grounds. - Four vaulted cellars and partially convertible attics complete the property. The property also includes the possibility of a self-contained private apartment, featuring a spacious living room with open-plan kitchen and fireplace, a bedroom, a shower room, toilets, and a utility room. An ideal setup for welcoming guests in style or providing comfortable accommodation for staff. The exterior is equally remarkable: three vast successive Italian-style terraces with panoramic views, the first of which shelters a covered area with barbecue, an old bread oven, and a basin ready to be brought back to life. On the grounds, a magnificent period dovecote/pigeon tower recalls the estate’s history and authenticity. The panoramic view over the Cévennes plain, facing due south, is simply spectacular! Our opinion: This château is truly without equal in the region: a characterful residence of rare authenticity, carefully restored with exemplary modern comfort. Its Renaissance influence is clearly perceptible in the elegance of its architecture, while offering high-quality features in an exceptional natural environment. A property for true heritage lovers, seeking a primary or secondary residence that is almost turnkey, with strong patrimonial value and a preserved, peaceful, and inspiring setting.

Castle Montelimar (26)

EXCLUSIVE. Lots of character and ancient history in this medieval castle just 10 mins from the Rhône valley and the motorways. Overlooking the Chomérac valley without any nuisance, the fortress built in a park of nearly one hectare has basalt stone defense walls 160 cm high. The environment is exceptional and the view unobstructed over the Ardèche mountains. Rare in our region, the square central building is flanked by 4 habitable towers. Many remains convince us that the first stones that erected the fortified castle have existed since the time of the Roman Empire, but it was in the Middle Ages that it took the form we know today. In the 14th century, during the Renaissance, the inner courtyard was fitted out with a monumental staircase in the Italian style with 4 levels leading to the new pleasure floors. This majestic work still exists today. The attic has very good possibilities. This castrum has 3 levels of approximately 400 m2 including around twenty guest and private rooms with shower room and WC, dining rooms, lounges, kitchens, libraries, cellars, large cellars , garage. The 4 towers are fitted out. West-facing terrace of 80 m2 overlooking the park as well as a superb terrace to the North. To complete this exceptional property, 2 independent gites including a disabled person. A fully equipped reception room allows the organization of weddings and seminars. The covered swimming pool embellishes the superb park. Looted and damaged by the Duke of Montmorancy in 1628, then during the French Revolution, the castle gradually regained a certain splendor in the 20th century. It is now up to you to make it last in history.

Castle Saint-Lager-Bressac (07)

Backed by a wooded hill, with panoramic views of the Ardèche Mountains, a 16th-century Provençal castle in an 8-hectare estate. Access to the estate from the road is ensured by a large porch with stone pillars, a tiled roof, and a painted wooden gate, which opens onto a pebbled and landscaped inner courtyard. On the right side, a small French garden adorned with white roses adds refinement to the building. It is a typical castle of the 16th-century Provençal style, restored to preserve its authentic Ardèche character. Raised over two stories, one of which is convertible under the eaves, and oriented north-south, the residence features sober facades in dressed stone coated with lime, straight bays framed in white and fitted with painted wooden shutters in green, and finally, roofs with two or four panes of canal tiles bordered by three rows of tile overhangs. It is flanked by concrete terraces on the south and west. The eastern wing, connected to the castle by its northeast corner, houses a caretaker's accommodation and a loft with an orangery on two levels. Forming an L-shaped building extended by a paved terrace to the south, it displays, like the main body, the architectural characteristics typical of Provençal houses: plastered stone facades and country tiles with one or two slopes. The wing, once a stable for horses, was indeed built at the same time as the castle and later transformed into an orangery. The built complex is surrounded by a 1-hectare park, which includes trimmed hedges, a Japanese pond, a pool with views over the Payre valley, and an old tennis court. Traversed by hiking trails, a forest of oaks borders it, providing an ideal setting for nature lovers. For over 20 years, after about ten years of work, the castle has become a guesthouse with seven rooms, five of which are equipped for hosting, with private amenities. Its interior spaces blend antique furniture, delicate bedspreads, and lime-painted walls, which enhance the charm of the living areas. All roofs and the insulation of the upper floor were redone a few years ago. All windows are double-glazed.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Listed castle Centre Ville - Valence (26)

In the center of the capital of Drôme, surrounded by a 4-hectare park, lies a château from the early 20th century, classified as a historical monument, in the Art Nouveau style. The building was constructed in the early 20th century at the request of Alfred Gayet, a mining engineer and inventor of the gold extraction and enrichment process. To carry out this work, he was joined by the renowned architect Pierre Blein, with contributions from painter Guillermin, glass artist Thomas, decorator Boulanger, as well as landscape architects Luizet and Barret. The construction of the main house and its various outbuildings (keeper's house, service buildings, dovecote, and hydroelectric plant) as well as the landscaping of the park was carried out between 1900 and 1904 under Blein's direction. The château was adorned with elements of the Art Nouveau style: remarkable painted decorations by Guillermin and Mangier, stained glass from Thomas's workshop, and ceramics by Boulanger and Villeroy & Bosch. The residence, featuring stone facades and tiled roofs, consists of a central body and two wings at right angles, with the right wing formed by a rotunda and the left by a square tower. It has four levels including a basement, with multiple cellars, and about twenty rooms spread over the three habitable levels: a large vestibule, two living rooms, play or reading rooms, a dining room, a kitchen, and other utility spaces on the ground floor; a vast hall, five bedrooms, and four bathrooms on the first floor; and a spacious rotunda room, four service bedrooms, and five attics, one of which is convertible, on the second floor. The landscaped park, enhanced with animal sculptures, spans 4.3 hectares and includes a pond. Originally, canals were fed by the river l'Épervière and ended in a series of ponds designed according to the ‘rocailleurs’ method. It is worth noting that the elements protected as historical monuments include the entire residence (interior and exterior), the park, the service buildings, the keeper's house, the disused factory building, and the dovecote.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Listed castle Valence (26)

In the Drôme des Collines, a 18th-century castle with medieval origins, listed as a historical monument, along with its outbuildings and park. The property presents itself as a coherent ensemble established at the center of a wooded park, slightly elevated from the road leading to the village. The castle is built according to a rectangular plan, with a tower at each corner and a square keep flanked at the north wall. Covering an area of about 720 m², it rises over four levels. The broken-slope roofs and old tiles attest to successive construction campaigns. The facades, made of stone and light ochre plaster, alternate between regular openings and older cutouts, reflecting the evolution of the dwelling over the centuries. A straight pathway penetrates the park and serves the outbuildings located set back: old stables, orangerie, barns, and wood shed, organized around a service courtyard. The tall trees provide a natural shield that isolates the estate from its immediate surroundings. A wide terrace extends to the south, while the landscaped park gently descends towards the low lands. The whole is conceived as a lordly estate on a contained scale, where each building occupies its place in an orderly composition.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Listed castle Chateaudouble (26)

A 17th-century chateau listed as a historical monument with a large outbuilding and splendid grounds looking out at the Rhône valley in France’s Drôme department. The local village was once a fief of the Poitiers-Valentinois family. It became part of the Kingdom of France at the start of the 15th century. The village had a chateau before this one. That old chateau was known as the region’s most important fortification, but it was destroyed in the French Wars of Religion. That was when a new chateau was built just outside the village, along the side of a road linking the village to the nearest town, a short distance north of it. Its location was not chosen at random: a spring lies beyond the ditches and it once filled up the property’s ponds and brought its fountains to life. A vast earthen terrace of more than one hectare is edged with embankments and dry moats. Upon it stand two fine edifices built in the style of the Italian Late Renaissance. The chateau towers in the middle of this grassy terrace. Construction of the chateau began in 1591. The edifice continued to be built during the second half of the 17th century. It is a large square-shaped structure with corner towers and a central inner courtyard. It has three levels and a floor area of over 1,300m². In front of the chateau, at the property’s entrance, stands an edifice that was built at the end of the 17th century. It is about 60 metres long and edges a road that runs along the other side of the moat. This structure is made up of a gatehouse flanked with two wings. This gatehouse controls access to the property. The whole building offers a floor area of around 450m². Together, the chateau and the gatehouse with its wings represent a splendid feat of architecture: a classic symmetrical layout going from east to west on an open, grassy terrace. Beyond this section of lawns on which the edifices stand, the grounds extend through meadows and woods over a naturally undulating area. The chateau has been listed as a historical monument since 1990 for its walls, roofing and interior decorative features.

Castle Bourgoin-Jallieu (38)

A 19th century chateau with 14.5 hectares of grounds surrounded by verdant countryside in north-west Isère . This vast estate, extending over approx. 14.5ha of gently sloping, uninterrupted land, consists predominantly of woodlands. A shady driveway leads to a large gravel parking area to the north-west of the main building. It then continues towards a courtyard in front of the chateau, where the woods give way to a large clearing. A secondary path followed by a flight of steps lead to a swimming pool on a plateau overlooking the forest. On the other side, a small wooden chapel is tucked away beneath the trees. This was originally a forest house linked to an ancient 16th century Cistercian abbey. After the French Revolution, it was used as the home of the steward responsible for managing the national forest. In 1888, a local grandee commissioned the architect Joseph-Étienne Mallaval to build a substantial four-storey extension. The chateau, which has undergone several periods of construction and renovation, stands on the north-eastern edge of the grounds. Its most striking external architectural features are those dating from the 19th century. The distinct, homogenous volumes of each section follow one another cascading down to the outbuilding, reflecting the different periods in which they were built. The adobe, pebble, rammed earth concrete and clinker block facades are rendered. The roofs, clad with slate, monk and nun or flat “beaver tail” tiles are in good condition; they have all been renovated, with the exception of the roof of the 19th-century main building. Today divided into various lodgings spread over three levels, the building has a total floor area of approx. 870 m². It is currently used as tourist accommodation, benefiting from one of the most peaceful environmental areas.
