luxury house for sale Rempnat, France

A listed residence and its French formal garden overlooking the Vienne River, in the heart of a dynamic historic city, 40 minutes from Limoges. The architectural style of the house is emblematic of the important tanning industry, which was particularly active in the 17th and 18th centuries. The three-storey edifice was built in 1609 by one of the most notable families in the town. Trapezoid in plan, it has a tall roof with four flat-tiled pitches, which contains a large drying loft with wooden cladding in the form of a saltire and a central dormer window facing south. This large historic residence of approx. 320 m², spanning four storeys of cob-filled and rendered half-timbered walls, is actually the result of the combination of three houses; their ground floors and attics were used for tannery activities, whilst the two upper floors were reserved for residential purposes. The original layout has not changed over the centuries, the lodgings of the master of the house are still located on the upper floors. A gate and a wicket door on the street side open onto the 'Directoire courtyard' in front of the south elevation and lead to a French formal garden to the east. The southern facade features a dozen rectangular, stone-framed and small-paned windows. On the ground floor, there are three large, arched openings with security grilles. Four narrow windows on the northern facade overlook a small quay where a boat or canoe can be moored. Finally, the eastern facade, with a few straight windows and shutters on the first floor, is flanked by an annex with small windows and a gable roof. This projecting structure stands on thin wooden pillars.

Situated in the heart of the beautiful Limousin countryside, close to the charming town of Châteauneuf-la-Forêt and just 40 minutes from Limoges, this remarkable 18th-19th century château estate offers an extraordinary opportunity to acquire one of the region's most unique historic properties. Unlike a traditional fairytale castle', this estate combines authentic French heritage with an intriguing and unusual history that gives the property genuine character and commercial potential. Originally constructed for aristocratic ownership during the late 18th or early 19th century, the château entered a completely different chapter of its life in 1934 when it was acquired by the CHU hospital group of Limoges and transformed into a sanatorium dedicated to the treatment of tuberculosis and chronic illnesses, before the widespread use of antibiotics. During this period, several substantial buildings were added to the estate, including a former hospital complex of approximately 1,200m² which still stands today. As medical treatments evolved, the site later became a psychiatric care institution before finally closing in 1995. In 2000, the current owners purchased the estate from the CHU of Limoges and undertook an immense programme of restoration and redevelopment. While the exterior of the château had retained its elegant historic appearance, decades of institutional use had stripped the interior of its original decorative features. Rather than attempting to recreate the past artificially, the owners embraced the opportunity to create a distinctive blend of historic architecture and contemporary design. The result is a property with striking modern interiors set within an authentic château exterior, offering comfort, practicality and style while preserving the estate's historical identity. The château itself now offers exceptional reception and hospitality facilities. On the ground floor there is a large boiler room with an efficient wood-fired central heating system, office space, a magnificent reception hall perfectly suited for weddings and events, a games room and a fully equipped professional commercial kitchen ideal for caterers or in-house hospitality operations. The first floor features a luxurious two-bedroom apartment with kitchen, lounge, dining room, dressing room and bathroom. The second floor offers a further spacious and beautifully appointed two-bedroom apartment with large lounge, kitchen, dining room, office and bathroom. These elegant apartments are perfectly suited as premium guest accommodation or bridal suites for weddings and private events. Beyond the château, the former hospital buildings provide enormous development potential. Parts have already been renovated, including the creation of high-quality shower and toilet facilities for the campsite, where each pitch benefits from its own private bathroom space ? a rare and highly attractive feature for luxury camping. Additional apartments were successfully rented until the owners' recent retirement. The remaining wings of the former hospital have largely untouched potential, offering the possibility to create at least 25 additional bedrooms or approximately 6 to 8 substantial apartments, subject to the necessary permissions. This is where the estate becomes truly exceptional as a hospitality or events business: very few wedding venues are capable of accommodating entire wedding parties on-site. With the possibility of over 30 bedrooms plus 25 camping pitches, the commercial possibilities are considerable. The owners operated the business on only a limited seasonal basis of approximately eight weeks per year, generating around euros140,000 annually from safari tents and holiday accommodation alone. This demonstrates both the appeal of the location and the strength of the concept. A future owner could significantly expand operations through year-round château rentals, weddings, retreats, wellness events, corporate functions or boutique hospitality. The estate therefore offers not only a major development opportunity, but also the ability to generate revenue almost immediately. The grounds are equally impressive. In front of the château lies an elegant lawned park with swimming pool, while to the rear are landscaped gardens, terraces, a bar area, snack kitchen, outdoor dining terraces and covered entertaining spaces. Numerous outbuildings, walled gardens, woodland and meadowland extend across the estate, creating endless opportunities for leisure activities, animals, glamping or nature-based tourism. Hidden within the woodland is an enchanting pond, reached by peaceful forest walks with spectacular countryside views throughout. This is not simply another château. It is a rare and highly distinctive estate with a fascinating past, substantial existing infrastructure and exceptional commercial potential. Whether envisioned as a luxury wedding venue, wellness retreat, boutique hospitality destination, private estate or tourism project, the pro (5.13 % fees incl. VAT at the buyer's expense.)
