In the Beaujolais, in a dominant position with a 180° view, a castle and its cellar, an old wine estate. At the bend of a communal road, an iron gate opens onto a tree-lined cavalier path that leads to the foot of the castle, overlooking the valley and surrounding lands. A wide terrace, flat and open to the plain, encircles the building and its exposed stone bases. A second gate, located between the castle and the cellar, leads through the inner courtyard to the former farmhouse of the estate, now independent. On both sides, the gaze is drawn upwards to the glazed tile roof, reflecting the sunlight and creating a visual contrast with the simplicity of the symmetrical facades. The round corner tower links the two spaces. Beyond the courtyard, the cellar, once dedicated to production, now serves as a storage area. Rectangular in shape, it is separated from the old farmhouse by a common return.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A 17th-century chateau and its 39-hectare estate listed as a historic monument 30 minutes from Lyon. Built between 1608 and 1616 on a former castle motte acquired by Jean Sève, Lyon's Receiver General of Finances, and accessible via a drawbridge, the chateau's architecture is distinctive due to its perfect symmetry. It has three storeys, with cellars and attic space in the main central part of the building. This part is flanked on either side by two wings, each topped by a hipped roof with rolled eaves, and by two projecting corner towers topped by square-based convex arched roofs, also with rolled eaves. The north and south facades of the main building have large mullioned windows with small panes, with seven windows from the ground floor to the second floor. The slate, hipped roof of the main building features three pediment dormers to the north and south - one in the centre with an arched pediment and the others with a triangular pediment. On either side, the windows on the wings and towers are the same type and height as those on the main building. The roofs are different. Some of them need renovation - those above the towers and the central building. If the building’s shape seems is surprising and the size of the wings seems modest compared to that of the central body, it is because the body houses a very large former Calvinist temple on the second floor, illuminated by seven windows on each facade. It was one of the 'fief temples' that France tolerated on its territory after the Edict of Nantes, on condition that they remained discreet. Three dormer windows to the south and north, unique because of their unusual size and their Holy Trinity symbols, were and remain, the only external sign of this on the building. A moat surrounds the chateau and the outbuildings. The property is enhanced by outbuildings such as a caretaker's cottage and a farmhouse with a swimming pool in its walled square courtyard. Lastly, a fountain consisting of a basin adorned by three marmosets from the park at Vaux-le-Vicomte stands in the centre of a circular pool, beyond a large terraced flowerbed, in front of the chateau’s south facade.
