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 Les Vans (07)

This charming guest house, nestling on an ancient Roman road, offers a Boutique Hotel rooted in local culture - an intimate, personalised and authentic experience based on a 12th-century Château and its chapel - a timeless stopover filled with evocative history. You have to push open the imposing wooden gate to discover a unique world, a jewel of architecture overlooking an exuberant 5000m² park, worthy of The Jungle Book, in which courtyards, terraces, fountains, century-old trees, lime trees, cedars of Lebanon, Spanish firs and palm trees intersect with shady paths lined with boxwoods, rose gardens and bamboo groves, enticing exploration and the sharing of emotions and gentle poetry, not far from a beautiful 16 x 4.5m swimming pool. This residence belonged to a wealthy family in the 16th century, who created stone features such as the Renaissance staircase of monumental proportions, which is a key feature of the castle. In 1925, a general returning from the Colonies decided to completely renovate the castle, and thanks to him, the winter garden was created with its fresco decoration. This was followed by a period of prosperity linked to a local activity - silkworm farming. Magnificently restored and maintained, this generous haven of peace offers its guests a wealth of nooks and crannies, vast rooms furnished with charm and harmony, some with balconies, like a promontory set in parkland, bathed in the scents and fragrances from the four corners of the world, not forgetting the accompanying songs and chirping of the birds who live here. With almost 632m² of living space, not including the additional 165m² of convertible attic space and numerous outbuildings, the successive owners have designed a welcoming lounge in the former chapel, with a huge library brimming with books, a place of reverie for those who choose to lounge on a soft sofa; then a vaulted kitchen furnished with high-quality Zimbabwe granite worktops and a Lacanche cooking hob, opening onto a terrace; for food-lovers, a beautifully proportioned vaulted dining room with a huge table draped in white linen; not forgetting the cinema room with its antique armchairs upholstered in red velvet, cleverly converted in the tower room. There are also four large bedrooms, including two suites (double rooms) (34, 58, 45 and 26m²), all with ensuite facilities, and a guard room in the 13th-century keep. On the second level: three bedrooms, including a large suite (double room) and the keep room (14.5m², 45m² and 40.6m²). Independently accessible from the courtyard and on one level: a vaulted room, a fitted kitchen and an ensuite bedroom (25m²) with bathroom and toilet. A curiosity in the garden are the unusual dwelling places: a camp of 3 traditional gypsy caravans, a cabin and ‘la vie en rose’ - many promises and magical moments if we could go on here and list in detail all the riches of this home, but isn't it better to discover them for yourself ? Agency fees are to be paid by the vendor. Information on the risks to which this property is exposed is available on the Géorisques website. Référence : 2757
