An elegant chateau from the 18th and 19th centuries with six hectares of grounds, nestled beside Eawy forest in France’s Pays de Bray province, two hours from Paris. Roads through Eawy forest, then country lanes through hedge-lined meadows from the town of Saint-Saëns, lead to the village where the chateau is nestled. Beyond a calvary, a row of majestic plane trees edges the property. Then the estate comes into view. A church opposite watches over the grounds. Beside the entrance stands a building of red brick and sandstone. On the other side of the entrance, there is a characterful half-timbered house. Between these two structures, there is a sturdy wrought-iron double gate flanked by two yew hedges. It is positioned a long way from the buildings. From this gate, you can admire vistas on all sides.
The chateau towers proudly in the middle of its tree-dotted grounds. The building was a hunting lodge at the end of the 18th century. Later, it was extended during the Bourbon Restoration, a period of French history that lasted from 1815 to 1830. The chateau is the successor to a seigneurial manor house that once stood here and that dated back to an unknown year. For 300 years, the dwelling belonged to the same family of landowners. The members of this family were nobles of the sword who served in the French king’s armies and later in the emperor’s armies. Some members of this family are now buried in the church that neighbours the property. During the July Monarchy, when Louis-Philippe I reigned in France, a marquis and knight built the two towers that flank the chateau and gave the dwelling its current appearance. That was when this grand house became today’s imposing edifice with a straight central section. The chateau’s architecture is neoclassical in style. It has a base course of dressed stone, walls of brickwork and stone, and rectangular windows that are evenly laid out in a symmetrical arrangement. It is crowned with a slate roof.
To the south-east there is a wood store. The buildings mostly have slate roofs and walls of brick and stone.
The relaxing grounds include many groves, a vegetable patch, an orchard, a pond and pastureland reserved for grazing.
