Castles for sale Stavelot, Belgium

An 18th-century castle, its outbuildings and its 7-ha estate, south of Liège, «The fiery city». Overlooking the Meuse on a rocky outcrop, this impressive stronghold once defended the southern boundary of the principality. The estate includes a classical-style chateau dating from the 18th century, built in a U-shape. The west wing is particularly noteworthy, featuring a circular tower dating back to the late Middle Ages. The building has endured the ravages of time and is in need of extensive renovation. Nonetheless, it contains vast reception rooms where some original decorative features have survived. The property also includes an old orangery, a caretaker's lodge and garages topped with haylofts. Finally, the gardens are terraced and walled. They offer uninterrupted views over the mighty river meandering below towards the great monuments of 'Little France on the banks of the Meuse', as Jules Michelet called this region.
