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. This region, often compared to the English countryside, is characterised by its rolling hills, fields bordered by hedgerows, forests, rivers and charming sunken lanes. 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. Finally, the famous Puy du Fou site, a major tourist destination welcoming nearly three million visitors each year, is just 25 km away.

Completely renovated, this glass roof highlights an elegant cement tile floor laid in a black-and-white chequerboard pattern.

iad France - Gilles Billaud offers you: You are part of the most prominent businesses in the Vendée department. Whether you are the owner or tenant of your headquarters, you acknowledge that it is soulless, and you suspect your employees lack enthusiasm for going there. Imagine relocating it, not to another department with the risk of losing your best talents, but nearby, to a simply idyllic location. A castle. Nothing less than that. This castle exists. It was built in the mid-19th century in the purest neo-classical style of Napoleon III's favorite architect, Eugène Viollet-le-Duc: the Château de Puybelliard, located in the municipality of Chantonnay. Admire its height, turrets, slate roof, and elegant shape in the attached photograph. Covering nearly 900 m², it represents the unexpected workplace for a workforce of thirty to fifty employees distributed in open space across its ten finely decorated rooms, spread over two floors, with a ceiling height of 4 meters. On the ground floor, two meeting rooms, one for large events and the other for smaller group meetings, will foster group think and collective emulation among your collaborators. A dining room featuring original paneling, previously used for a gourmet restaurant, will host them at lunchtime. A provider of your choice will prepare delicious meals for them in the kitchen, which is professionally equipped for this catering function. After lunch, your employees will gather in the adjacent bar, where, while having coffee, they can prepare to return to their workstations. Those who still have time can stroll in the park or even swim in the castle's pool during the lunch break in the summer. What better way to maintain a loyal and motivated workforce and avoid the inconveniences of turnover? Your products will be stored, as you wish, on the third floor, in the cellar, or in the two former stables, one of which is built of stone and particularly elegant. Transporters can access the entrance located on the departmental road to drop off or pick up your goods. The gardener and maids will reside in two adjoining cottages, ensuring an impeccable aesthetic for the park and impeccable cleanliness inside the castle, likely to dazzle clients, partners, or investors. Your brand, announced on the main gate on Rue des Dames, will be displayed at the roundabout inside the property, in front of the castle. You might think this is an oversized project? We do not need to remind you that acquiring a tangible asset opens a depreciation period of at least ten years*: we let you imagine the considerable corporate tax savings that would follow. And if your company generates during each financial year a result of one-tenth of the price of this castle, you will somehow have reimbursed it by the end of the depreciation period, by not paying the corresponding tax amount. We also do not need to remind you that any work you undertake in the castle or its annexes to embellish it or make it more functional would also be deductible from corporate tax. This magnificent castle awaits you, for a price of 1.1 million euros. (*) Tax modifiable period depending on the nature of the equipment concerned. Agency fees are the responsibility of the seller.

It is ideally suited to tourism, with a restaurant and professional kitchen, guest rooms and two gîtes. The bocage region of the Vendée is mainly made up of fields surrounded by coppice, hedges and copses, forming a landscape of unspoilt natural charm. The small village where the Château is located has a rich history: in the 15th century, this trading town was renowned throughout the region for its fairs and varied crafts. In 1721, it was one of the twenty largest towns in Bas-Poitou! The fairs lost their importance in the 16th century, and after the Revolution they were held only four times a year. Built between 1850 and 1856, this Château is typical of the buildings of the period: a vast, ostentatious residence in keeping with the recovery and reconstruction of the region after the Vendée War. It is a square building, two storeys high. The garden level has a large surface area thanks to two low wings with concealed roofs, while the central mass rises over four levels of windows above a brick base.

The first gîte sleeps 6 people (€1,000 in high season) and the second sleeps 4 (€760 in high season). A swimming pool (5x10m) allows guests to cool off after visiting the rich heritage of the Vendée. The park covers approximately 6,18 acres, some of which is enclosed by walls. The English-style park is planted with large trees of various species. In particular, there are two huge sequoias. The woodland of around one hectare is planted mainly with oaks. Away from the Château is the orchard, enclosed by old walls: several fruit trees, including fig, mirabelle, apple and peach trees.

Set in a 140 acres estate, in a peaceful location with no neighbours, it is 2 kilometres from a small village with around 1,000 inhabitants. This pleasant village was the summer residence of bishops between the 14th and 17th centuries.

The surrounding countryside, made up of hedged farmland, forests and small streams, is ideal for nature lovers and keen walkers. The Mervent forest is just a 15-minute drive away. The château was built between 1823 and 1830, not far from an estate that had existed since the 14th century. The owner commissioned a renowned architect to build a château on land that belonged to his ancestors. The aesthetic is both elegant and functional, designed to evoke prestige and solidity, while offering bourgeois comfort. The architecture is typical of the second half of the 19th century, influenced by the neo-Gothic and neo-Renaissance styles. The château has a rectangular floor plan with a three-storey elevation and a tower at the corner. The facades are punctuated by vertical bays framed by white stone quoins. In the central section, the frames of the entrance door and the upper window are carefully decorated with mouldings. The steep slate roofs are topped by brick chimneys.

Ref.4971: Former seigneurial castle comprising two dwellings, outbuildings and a 4,493 sqm garden in southern Vendée Set in the heart of the Vendée countryside, this small village offers a peaceful and authentic way of life, ideal for those who long for calm and nature. Between green meadows, bocage, woods and small country lanes, the landscape invites walks, bike rides and the simple pleasures of outdoor life. This charming village offers a serene environment while remaining close to the shops and services of Sainte-Hermine, a few minutes away by car. Nearby, Fontenay-le-Comte and Luçon offer more shops, restaurants and activities for everyday life. Nature and discovery lovers will also enjoy outings to the Marais poitevin and its enchanting canals, as well as the beautiful beaches of the Vendée coast. So many ways to vary the pleasures, between relaxation, heritage and outdoor leisure. Living here means choosing a gentler daily life, enjoying space, recharging through the seasons and rediscovering the taste for simple things, without giving up essential amenities. This seigneurial dwelling offers approximately 300 sqm of living space, divided between two dwellings. The inner courtyard is reached through a succession of two large stone arches, weathered by time, creating a perspective. The main building is the oldest identifiable part of the edifice. Built at the very end of the 15th century, it forms the core of the seigneurial residence. Its rectangular volume met the residential needs of a noble family while asserting the lord's presence within his estate. Certain architectural features bear witness to the building's medieval origins. The entrance gateway notably retains remains of rib vaults, characteristic of Gothic architecture. The original dwelling has nevertheless evolved over the centuries. Later transformations altered its volumes and interior layout, without entirely erasing the traces of its first building campaign. Once through the porch, one reaches a square courtyard. FIRST HOME: In the first part of the dwelling, on the ground floor, there is a kitchen full of character, authentic and with a warm atmosphere. The exposed stone walls, the old beams and the imposing monumental stone fireplace create a setting steeped in history and conviviality. The floor is adorned with an elegant checkerboard in light and ochre tones. This kitchen elegantly combines old-world charm with the art of living of fine country houses: a generous and authentic space, designed as much for cooking as for entertaining. The living room retains fine original features: the old terracotta tiled floor with its warm, irregular shades, the monumental fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove, and the French-style ceiling of massive dark wooden beams. A bathroom and a separate toilet complete the ground floor. The staircase is another remarkable feature of the dwelling: made of light-coloured stone, with wide, massive steps weathered by time, it consists of two flights crossing around an imposing stringer wall. The banister is a white-painted wooden balustrade of turned and carved balusters, topped with a thick handrail. The more imposing newel posts feature moulded panels. Upstairs, a stone-floored landing leads to the corridor serving two bedrooms, a child's bedroom, a bathroom, a toilet and a vast attic with a monumental fireplace to be restored. SECOND HOME: In the second part of the dwelling, the ground floor comprises a vast living room with a monumental fireplace and a beamed ceiling, then a large bedroom with a terracotta tiled floor, beams and a brick fireplace, a kitchen with a flagstone floor and a basic shower room with toilet. Upstairs are vast attics that could be converted into additional bedrooms. The outbuildings include the oratory, to be restored, whose walls retain original frescoes, the sheepfold, the seigneurial market hall of approximately 7 × 9 m, a large attic with a fireplace, and the barn. The grounds cover 4,493 sqm. They are made up of different areas, each with its own orientation, to be enjoyed at different times of day: the north-facing terrace overlooking the village, a wooded area, the vegetable garden, the field to the west with the orchard, and the south-facing garden in the inner courtyard.

It occupies a strategic location, at the junction of the Vendée, Maine-et-Loire and Deux-Sèvres departments. The flagship tourist attraction of Puy du Fou, which attracts over 4 million visitors a year, is less than 20 kilometres away. This part of the Vendée’s ‘haut-bocage’ has seen growing interest in its heritage over the past twenty years, thanks in particular to the cultural tourism generated by Puy du Fou and the search for character properties offering accommodation potential. A typical small town is located approximately 2 kilometres away. This town has a surprisingly dense commercial network for a municipality of around 5,500 inhabitants. The property is in a quiet location with no immediate neighbours. The approach to the estate is a sight to behold. Once you pass through a beautiful wrought-iron gate, guarded by a statue, the path winds its way between rhododendron beds and majestic, centuries-old trees. At the top of the hill, you reach the château. Set on a hilltop, it displays perfect neo-medieval symmetry. It is organised around a rectangular main building flanked by four hexagonal towers at the corners. The fortress-like effect is now accentuated by the lower roofs, which were once high, slate-covered hipped roofs. Inside, the château was renovated some thirty years ago. Imposing neo-Gothic panelling in light oak has been fitted throughout the rooms. From the large windows, there are unobstructed views of the grounds, the ponds and the surrounding countryside. The rooms are spacious and very light. The ground floor opens onto a spacious, double-height entrance hall, showcasing an elegant staircase in light wood. This level comprises a living room with a fireplace, a dining room also featuring a fireplace, a library with a fireplace, as well as a kitchen and its utility room. Each of the towers houses a characterful room, offering additional spaces full of charm. This level also features a guest toilet, an additional room that can be fitted out as required, and the start of a second staircase leading to the upper floors.

This level comprises a spacious bedroom with its own bathroom and toilet, a second large bedroom with a fireplace and its own bathroom, as well as a very large bedroom which also has its own bathroom and toilet. It also features a more intimate bedroom with its own shower room and toilet, another bedroom with a fireplace, a separate toilet, and a room on a half-level, accessible via the second staircase, which serves as a cloakroom and storage area for staff. The second floor comprises a spacious open-plan area that can be fitted out to suit the needs and plans of its future occupants. Featuring a concrete slab floor, high ceilings beneath a steel roof structure and a slate roof, this space offers particularly attractive potential for development. A full basement, accessible from both inside and outside, completes the property. The property features numerous outbuildings, including seven self-contained dwellings. A/ 5 self-contained dwellings (former stables) To the right of the château stands a long building whose architecture blends perfectly with that of the main house. Formerly stables, with a large entrance porch running through them, this complex now comprises five apartments. Each comprises a kitchen, a living room, a toilet, two or three bedrooms, and one or more bathrooms or shower rooms. Renovation work is required, particularly regarding the door and window frames. At the far end of the building, a smaller dwelling offers interesting potential for restoration and requires a complete refurbishment. B/ A detached house of approximately 81 m² completes this complex (property 6). C/ An elegant 19th-century-style caretaker’s house, situated at the entrance to the property, benefits from a recently replaced roof and a modern drainage system (property 7). D/ A charming chapel, in good overall condition, retains a beautiful stone vault and distinctive stained-glass windows. Several other outbuildings enhance the estate: a utility room, a wash house, a greenhouse, a storage building and a covered courtyard. Set in the tranquillity of an estate spanning over 11 hectares, the park harmoniously unfolds a series of carefully composed landscape views. Within this unspoilt natural setting, wooded areas, vast meadows and wooded zones follow one another. The estate comprises around 1.5 hectares of woodland and nearly 9 hectares of open meadows, offering a sense of space and breathing room. The remarkable species of trees that dot the park bear witness to its history and character: majestic Lebanese cedars, sumptuous purple beeches, monkey puzzle trees… Two ponds enhance this natural setting, whilst a river runs through the property. There is also the option to purchase an additional property situated at the rear of the outbuildings, comprising various farm buildings in need of renovation, a residential house, land and a private driveway, covering a total area of 1 hectare, 61 ares and 32 centiares.
