How can one imagine that at the bend of a road in Languedoc, among vineyards and ancient villages, nine centuries of history can be discovered? This royal priory brings together two architectures that seem to oppose each other: a Romanesque church from the 12th century and a sumptuous main building from the 18th century, whose refinement evokes a princely residence. A collection classified as a Historic Monument, comprising about 6,000 m² of buildings within a 41-hectare estate.In Hérault, at the heart of a landscape of hills and vineyards, the property benefits from an accessible location: Béziers and its TGV station are about 30 minutes away, Montpellier airport is 45 minutes away, and the coast is less than three-quarters of an hour away.The priory is organized around a large courtyard, framed by two wings and a main building raised over three levels. On the garden side, a long classical facade dominates successive terraces, connected by majestic stone staircases. A wrought iron balustrade with Rococo design, flowerbeds, an Anglo-Chinese garden, and a grove of cypress trees complete this composition.Founded in the 11th century by a community of canons, the priory experienced a prosperity that allowed for the construction of its Romanesque church in the 12th century. In 1755, the canons undertook a near complete reconstruction of their establishment. Authorized by Louis XV, this project lasted nearly thirty years and gave birth to an architecture worthy of the Age of Enlightenment: ordered facades, sculpted decorations, vaulted galleries, and grand staircases.Inside, the Great Gallery unfolds a remarkable perspective, while the grand staircase retains its wrought iron railing. On the noble floor, a suite of salons opens onto the terraces and gardens. A vestibule, reception salons, a state bedroom, and summer and winter dining rooms compose a layout worthy of an aristocratic residence.Today, the estate combines restored spaces with volumes yet to be reinvested. With its architecture, size, and outbuildings, it lends itself to various projects: private residence, cultural venue, hospitality, or events, subject to the necessary permits. Work remains to be planned, particularly on the upper floors of the main building.Information related to the risks to which this property is exposed is available at www.georisques.gouv.fr.Fees included of 4.31% VAT charged to the buyer.

Built at the end of the Renaissance in the Agenais region, this brick and stone château overlooks the Garonne Valley. It has preserved the essence of its original architecture, including its remarkable grand staircase and some unique elements of its late 17th-century interior decor. Four centuries later, it awaits a new owner to write the next chapter of its history.The estate extends over 5 hectares, including 4 hectares of cultivated agricultural land. The built structure includes the lordly part of the château, overlooking an east-facing terrace, and an entrance pavilion that once featured a drawbridge.On the noble floor, nearly 500 m² of reception rooms are arranged in a row: an old great room of 160 m², two former salons of 80 m² each, and two 40 m² rooms located in the corner pavilions. At the center of the composition, the grand staircase leads to a complete vaulted basement, while the upper floor includes an unfinished room. An adjoining apartment also offers about 50 m² of living space.The history of this château begins in the late 13th century when a fortified place was erected on a promontory to control the valley. The territory successively came under English and French domination until the end of the Hundred Years' War.At the end of the 16th century, the fortress was dismantled to make way for a more comfortable stately residence. This ambitious lordly construction, characteristic of the reign of Henry IV, stands out for its mannerist architecture: diamond-pointed dressed stone framed mullioned windows, rigorous symmetry, and skillful composition.Under the reign of Louis XIV, the lands were granted marquisate status, and the château received a very refined interior decor. Some remnants of this remain, notably a hooded fireplace and a vaulted ceiling painted with a fresco depicting the goddess Flora, attributed to the school of Nicolas Poussin.Seized during the Revolution, the château was forgotten until 1818, when a demolition campaign was launched. Fortunately interrupted, it only took away the top level. In the 19th century, the old lordly residence even served as a tobacco drying house.Today, the château awaits a major restoration. Its volumes, high ceilings, monumental staircase, and the remnants of its decorations still bear witness to its peak period. Its graceful and orderly architecture offers remarkable material for a revival project, whether it is a private residence or another use compatible with the place.Are you inspired and ready to discover this château?

Part of this defensive system remains visible, notably the passages fitted into the thickness of the walls, which once allowed movement shielded from view.Over the centuries, the fortress became a pleasurable residence. Reception rooms open onto gardens, and new decors enrich the interiors. Under the Second Empire, a spectacular transformation gave it its current silhouette, with high slate roofs and the neo-Gothic crown of the keep, whose design is attributed to Viollet-le-Duc.Inside, the guard room, chapel, spiral staircases, sculpted fireplaces, frescoes, and antique parquet flooring testify to these different eras. The succession of monumental spaces and more intimate rooms reveals the architectural richness of the castle.The outbuildings, some dating back to the 18th century, include former service buildings and a large hall once intended for receptions.Surrounding the castle is a romantic park of 27 hectares, composed of meadows, gardens, and woods.
