Ref 4828: Château and outbuildings for sale in the Vendée The property is situated in the heart of the Vendée bocage, considered one of the most striking landscapes in the Vendée.

Nestled in a peaceful, green setting, the property nevertheless benefits from its proximity to the lively town of Pouzauges, just 8 km away. The town offers a friendly atmosphere, numerous events organised throughout the year and a particularly vibrant community life.

It enjoys exceptional natural light thanks to a metal glass roof with small panes, resting on a wooden base and rising to the full height of the north, east and south façades. Completely renovated, this glass roof highlights an elegant cement tile floor laid in a black-and-white chequerboard pattern.
