At the gates of Dauphiné, an emblematic castle listed as a historical monument. The estate is situated within a vast fortified enclosure of about one kilometer, whose ramparts recall its original defensive purpose. The castle, a major stronghold of medieval Dauphiné, was built starting in the 13th century and then altered up to the Renaissance, following a U-shaped plan around a large inner courtyard. The main body, built of limestone and rubble, rises three levels above the courtyard. The façades are widely pierced with mullioned windows and animated, on the courtyard side, by arcade galleries and Renaissance loggias, which testify to the gradual transformation of the fortress into a noble residence. The ensemble is flanked by a round tower from the 14th century, a square tower, and a preserved dungeon, while several remnants of curtain walls remain. The steep roofs, covered with flat tiles forming a multicolored diamond pattern or pepperpot style, are punctuated by dormers and high chimney stacks. To the east, a path leads to the entrance porch. To the south, the French gardens open onto a wooded park. A concierge's lodge and old stables are located near the main house, completing the historical organization of the site.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A castle in a dominant position in Beaujolais. At the bend of a communal road, a wrought-iron gate opens onto the tree-lined horse path, leading to the foot of the castle, overlooking the valley and the surrounding lands. A wide flat terrace open to the plain encircles the building and its exposed stone foundations. A second gate, located between the castle and the winery, leads through the inner courtyard to the old farm of the estate, now independent. On both sides, the eye is drawn upward to the glazed tile roof, reflecting the sun's rays and creating a visual contrast with the simplicity of the symmetrical facades. The round corner tower connects the two spaces. Beyond the courtyard, the winery, once dedicated to production, now serves as a storage area. Rectangular in shape, it is separated from the old farm by a shared return.This description has been automatically translated from French.

What immediately appealed to me about this property is the way it challenges many of the preconceptions often associated with historic homes. Behind its centuries-old walls, mullioned windows, stone staircase and remarkable traditional French beamed ceilings lies a bright, comfortable home that feels thoroughly contemporary in the way it can be lived in. The restoration has preserved the strength and character of the property without turning it into a frozen period setting. The rooms are generous, the layout flows naturally, and the amenities are perfectly suited to modern living: spacious reception rooms, numerous bedrooms, renovated bathrooms, open spaces and abundant natural light. The paved courtyard provides an immediate sense of privacy. Beyond it, the mature grounds, pond and swimming pool extend the living environment into peaceful, unspoilt surroundings. A property for those seeking space, character and genuine individuality, without having to compromise on comfort or embark on an endless restoration project.

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.
