A CHATEAU AND ITS REMARKABLE PARK ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BOURG-EN-BRESSE EXCLUSIVE. This property is being offered for sale via an interactive auction through Drouot.immo. The starting price is set at euros990,000. The bidding increment is set at euros30,000. The sale will take place on 19 December 2026 at 11.00 am. Participation is subject to prior approval. Information and terms and conditions available on request. In Viriat, just a few minutes from Bourg-en-Bresse, this property is nestled within one of the region's most beautiful wooded parks. Over the centuries, this former 17th-century farmhouse has evolved into a charming château with exceptional spaciousness, now extended by a contemporary orangery that opens wide onto the landscape. With over 700 m² of living space, several double-height living rooms, eight bedrooms, and vast reception areas, the estate offers a lifestyle centered on light, nature, and family gatherings. A swimming pool, pond, tennis court, terraces, and outbuildings enhance this sense of space and openness within more than four acres of landscaped grounds. A REMARKABLE PARK ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF THE CITY The park is one of the property's most distinctive features. Upon entering, the view opens up to centuries-old trees, expansive lawns, and rare species planted over time by a former owner who was a botanist. Giant sequoias, Atlas cedars, remarkable maples, magnolias, and linden trees compose a living landscape that evolves with the seasons. The estate offers a rare sense of depth and tranquility while remaining in close proximity to Bourg-en-Bresse and major thoroughfares. Surrounding the château, the stone terraces, pond, fountain, swimming pool, and tennis court naturally extend the living spaces outward. Here, the park does not merely accompany the residence?it becomes its very soul. SPACIOUS ROOMS FILLED WITH LIGHT With over 700 m² of living space spread across three levels, the château features particularly generous rooms while maintaining a seamless flow of movement. The living rooms follow one another in a warm atmosphere where light highlights the historic materials: stone, wood paneling, exposed beams, and antique flagstone and hardwood floors. Each era has left its mark with consistency. Several extensions inspired by the architecture of 18th- and 19th-century châteaux were added to the original 17th-century farmhouse before a contemporary orangery created a spectacular opening onto the park. The large reception rooms alternate with more intimate spaces dedicated to reading, relaxation, or family life. Eight bedrooms and several suites provide a discreet and elegant setting to welcome family and guests. A PROPERTY FOR ENTERTAINING, GATHERING, AND PASSING ON The estate strikes a rare balance between grandeur and the simple pleasures of life. The spacious layout allows for large family gatherings, extended stays, or weekend entertaining without ever losing the property's intimacy. The outbuildings?including the former stable converted into a garage and wine cellar?as well as the spaces still available for conversion offer various possibilities for future development, whether for hosting guests or as a vacation home. The proximity to the A40 highway, the Bourg-en-Bresse TGV station, and connections to Lyon or Geneva further enhances this convenience, making it ideal for both a primary and secondary residence. Yet the château retains that precious sense of being in a world of its own?a place deeply imbued with trees, the seasons, and the passage of time. AGENCY'S OPINION What immediately strikes one here is the balance between the château's scale and the expanse of the grounds. Rarely does a property manage to offer so much space while maintaining such a gentle and natural atmosphere. The trees, the light, and the views give the estate a quiet, almost timeless presence, just minutes from the city. BEHIND THE CENTURY-OLD TREES, A PROPERTY OF RARE PROPORTIONS

1.5 hours from Lyon, crowning a promontory in a mountain resort, a medieval fortified château, listed as a historic monument. The property survives as one preserved architectural composition, its silhouette dominating the Forez landscape. Four levels rise on a pentagonal plan of irregular sides. Cylindrical towers flank every corner but the south-eastern, which meets the quadrangular keep, and the five wings enclose an inner courtyard. Gabled roofs of barrel tiles cover the main house, conical ones the round towers. Beneath them, facades of granite rubble stone under pale render set mullioned windows alongside later openings and surviving elements of fortification. A parapet walk carried on corbelled machicolations runs along part of the wall tops, while a Renaissance doorway records the alterations made when the stronghold became a seigneurial house. The stone holds several centuries of history and successive adaptation, and the nobility of its original character survives them all.

At the gates of Dauphiné, an emblematic castle listed as a historical monument. The estate is established within a vast fortified enclosure of about one kilometer, whose walls remind us of its original defensive purpose. The castle, a major stronghold of medieval Dauphiné, built from the 13th century and then remodeled until the Renaissance, is constructed in a U-shaped plan around a large inner courtyard. The main building, made of limestone and rubble, is raised to three levels above the ground floor. The facades are largely pierced with mullioned windows and are animated, on the courtyard side, by arcaded galleries and Renaissance loggias, which testify to the gradual transformation of the fortress into a lordly residence. The whole is flanked by a round tower from the 14th century, a square tower, and a preserved keep, while several vestiges of curtain walls remain. The steep roofs, covered with flat tiles creating a polychrome diamond pattern or of pepperbox style, are punctuated by dormer windows and tall chimney stacks. To the east, a path leads to the entrance porch. To the south, the French gardens open onto a wooded park. A caretaker's lodge and former stables are located near the main residence and complete the historical organization of the site.This description has been automatically translated from French.
