castles for sale Tournus, France

A RESTORED ESTATE WITH GUEST ROOMS IN SOUTHERN BURGUNDY Less than 3 minutes from Tournus, the Château de Pymont has been elegantly reborn following a complete restoration carried out between 2020 and 2022. Rebuilt in the 17th century on the foundations of a medieval residence and later expanded in the 19th century, this estate offers nearly 700 m² of living space in the heart of a park spanning more than four hectares, crisscrossed by two streams. Nine bedrooms and suites, numerous outbuildings, and an already well-established bed-and-breakfast operation now come together to create a place where heritage, nature, and hospitality blend seamlessly. A HERITAGE RENAISSANCE DRIVEN BY PASSION Above all, the Château de Pymont tells a story of rebirth. Behind its facades?rebuilt in the 17th century on the ruins of an ancient medieval residence and later extended with an elegant neo-Gothic wing in the 19th century?lies a recent history that is equally remarkable. When the current owners first stepped through its doors in 2019, the estate bore deep signs of the passage of time. Thus began a restoration project of rare scope. The restoration carried out between 2020 and 2022 has now resulted in an estate whose essential elements have been restored, offering a level of comfort rarely found in heritage properties of this scale. The antique hardwood floors, wood paneling, ornate ceilings, stone staircases, and spacious rooms blend naturally with efficient heating, meticulous insulation, and discreetly integrated modern amenities. The château has thus returned to its original purpose: that of a living home, open to the next generation, where its heritage continues to write its story without ever becoming stagnant. NATURE AND TRAVEL CREATE A UNIQUE ATMOSPHERE The park, spanning more than four hectares, extends this sense of harmony. The Natouze River feeds a central pond, around which paths, century-old trees, and clearings are arranged, inviting visitors to take a stroll. As the seasons change, light filters through the foliage, reflects off the water, and guides the eye toward the magnificently restored dovecote. Stone bridges and outbuildings dot this bucolic landscape. Here, nature plays a central role in the estate's identity. Inside, this character continues with the same consistency. The living rooms, libraries, and nine guest rooms and suites offer a unique atmosphere where antiques, works of art, and objects brought back from numerous travels tell a personal story. Asian furniture, antique doors, repurposed architectural elements, and curiosities from afar come together to create a cultured and warm environment. More than just decoration, it is a true collection of mementos that accompanies each space and gives the château a rare identity. This atmosphere has naturally charmed the travelers welcomed since 2022 as part of a bed-and-breakfast operation that is now well-established. It also offers a future owner the opportunity to immediately take over an established business while enjoying a fully restored estate, thereby avoiding the need for additional construction work. AN ESTATE WITH MANY POSSIBILITIES Today, the Château de Pymont combines the charm of a historic residence with the freedom of an estate offering a wealth of possibilities. The numerous outbuildings, vaulted cellar, workshops, convertible attics, and spacious annexes offer varied and harmonious potential for development without disrupting the site's balance. Whether as a family residence, a reception house, a hospitality estate, or a continuation of the existing tourism business, every project finds a ready-to-use setting here. Its location further enhances this uniqueness. Located in close proximity to highway access points and the Mâconnais TGV station, and just a few hours from Geneva, Paris, or London, the estate combines rare heritage with European accessibility. The landscapes of Southern Burgundy, the region's rich culinary traditions, the vineyards, charming villages, and cultural itineraries naturally enhance the experience of the place. More than just a property, Château de Pymont offers the opportunity to continue the thread of a history already deeply rooted in the land. It appeals to buyers seeking a living heritage?immediately habitable?that balances quality of life, accessibility, and the potential to host guests. THE AGENCY'S OPINION We are deeply moved by this residence, which tells a story that goes far beyond its architecture. Château de Pymont is one of those places whose value lies as much in its history as in the emotion it evokes. Its exemplary restoration, the atmosphere created by its owners, the quality of its grounds, and its already well-established bed-and-breakfast business come together to form a rare ensemble, designed for those seeking a living heritage?ready to be lived in, passed down, and shared.

ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF CHALON-SUR-SAÔNE, THE ELEGANCE OF A 19TH-CENTURY ESTATE Behind a circular main courtyard lined with century-old trees, the Château de la Villeneuve reveals an instantly recognizable silhouette. Two corner turrets, a slate roof?a rarity in the region?and the balance of a symmetrical layout define the identity of this 19th-century bourgeois residence. Connected to a spectacular contemporary orangery that opens onto the grounds, the estate today combines a residence of character, an established hospitality business, and a refined lifestyle?all just a few minutes from Chalon-sur-Saône and the vineyards of the Côte Chalonnaise. 19TH-CENTURY ARCHITECTURE COMPLEMENTED BY A CONTEMPORARY ORANGERY Built at the height of the Industrial Revolution, the Château de la Villeneuve belongs to that generation of bourgeois mansions whose architecture reflected both success and a way of life. Its symmetrical layout, two corner turrets, dormer windows, ridge ironwork, and slate roof create a silhouette that is instantly recognizable in the regional landscape. A rarity in Burgundy, this roof contributes to the estate's unique character and evokes the architectural style of the grand residences of 19th-century notables. Inside, the original features naturally extend this elegance. Wood paneling, moldings, fireplaces, spiral staircases, and antique hardwood floors complement the spacious, light-filled rooms. Every detail seems to have found its perfect place, striking a delicate balance between historic character and contemporary comfort. Extending from the château, the contemporary orangery offers a new perspective on the estate. Spanning nearly 125 m², this vast glass structure interacts with the park through wide openings that blur the boundary between interior and exterior. The 60 m² wooden terrace naturally extends this light-filled reception area, designed to host everything from large family gatherings to moments of relaxation or more intimate receptions. MARGUERITE BOUCICAUT'S LEGACY IN A PRESERVED PARK The history of the Château de la Villeneuve bears the discreet yet essential mark of Marguerite Boucicaut. A native of Chalon-sur-Saône and co-founder of Le Bon Marché in Paris alongside her husband Aristide Boucicaut, she remains one of the most influential figures in 19th-century French philanthropy. It was thanks to the inheritance she left behind that the Charrier-Guérin family was able to acquire the property, permanently embedding the estate in a unique family and heritage history. This legacy continues to shape the identity of the place today. It links the château to a human journey that extends beyond the borders of Burgundy and serves as a reminder of the major role Marguerite Boucicaut played in French social and economic history. Surrounding the mansion, the historic 5,500 m² park provides a setting worthy of this legacy. Organized around a large circular main courtyard, dotted with century-old trees and open vistas, it offers a preserved landscape where greenery graces every view. The seasons are fully expressed here, amid soft shadows, lush foliage, and unobstructed views of the château's facades. This abundance of greenery gives the estate a distinctive atmosphere while maintaining close proximity to the city. A HOSPITABLE DESTINATION IN THE HEART OF THE CÔTE CHALONNAISE The Château de la Villeneuve's location is a major factor in its appeal. Situated on the outskirts of Chalon-sur-Saône, the estate enjoys quick access to shops, services, the train station, and major transportation routes. The A6 highway connects Lyon and Paris, while the vineyards of Mercurey, Rully, and Givry anchor the property in the heart of one of the most sought-after regions of the Côte Chalonnaise. This prime location directly supports the hospitality tradition cultivated over the years. The estate attracts visitors eager to explore Burgundy's wine-growing landscapes, travelers seeking a more intimate getaway, and business professionals passing through the Chalonnais region. Already successfully operating as a bed-and-breakfast?distinguished by the Clef Verte label for its commitment to more responsible tourism?the property currently generates annual revenue of approximately euros100,000 (excluding tax). Its current structure makes significant expansion of this business a realistic prospect. Hosting wellness retreats, expanding the range of accommodations, or creating new experiences centered on the local area all offer opportunities to continue the property's legacy. THE AGENCY'S OPINION The Château de la Villeneuve combines all the elements that define great estates of character: a distinctly recognizable 19th-century bourgeois residence, a contemporary orangery opening onto the grounds, a history intimately linked to Marguerite Boucicaut, a 5,500 m² historic park centered around a remarkable main courtyard, and a hospitality business certified by the Clef Verte program that is already firmly established.

Since the 12th century, this castle has stood guard on its hillside spur, nestled between two hamlets, just minutes from Cluny Abbey. Few properties can boast such a rare continuity. Built to monitor the former disputed border between the Duchy of Burgundy and the Kingdom of France, dismantled and then rebuilt from 1435 onwards by Guillaume de l'Aubespin and his wife Claudine de Vaux, it was embellished during the Renaissance by the Rabutin and then Champier families and has remained almost uninterrupted within the same family since 1794. Few residences offer such historical continuity. This property is not merely a stone; it is a living history book. A remarkable architectural example, the castle forms an irregular quadrilateral around a central courtyard (approximately 2,400 sqm, 237 m outer perimeter), and embodies several centuries of military and residential architecture. Entry to the courtyard is through a former carriage gate flanked by two round towers pierced with gun ports. Beyond this are curtain walls topped with a parapet walk and equipped with loopholes. An exceptional vaulted cellar with ribbed vaults (three naves on round piers), inspired by a design by Leonardo da Vinci, is said to have once served as a courtroom. A square keep, crowned with machicolations and defended by a bretèche, reveals corbelled latrines. A lord's residence, whose doorway is adorned with a coat of arms cartouche dated 1570, features heraldic fireplaces. Upstairs, painted ceiling decorations from the 16th and 17th centuries can still be found. The estate comprises several hundred square meters: around the former manor house, approximately 550 square meters, is a separate gîte of over 180 square meters with 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms (ideal for tourist or family accommodation), and several hundred square meters of outbuildings (barns, former stables, etc.). The castle's facades and roofs have been listed on the Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments since 1967, a status which, under certain conditions, entitles the owner to significant tax advantages (deduction of restoration costs, possible exemption from inheritance and gift taxes). From the terraces and windows of the manor house, the view encompasses the hills of the Clunisois region. The silence is broken only by the changing seasons, offering an exceptional setting 5 km from all amenities, approximately 15 minutes from Cluny and its abbey, 35 km from the Mâcon-Loché TGV station, 1 hour 15 minutes from Lyon and 2 hours from Geneva.
