At the gates of Reims, nestled between the prestigious vineyards of the Montagne de Reims and the tranquility of the Champagne countryside, the Domaine de Courmelois is a rare opportunity on the Grand Reims real estate market. Established in 1805 on foundations dating back to 1760, this characterful residence combines historical heritage with exceptional commercial potential.

A living heritage steeped in history
Former residence of Count Édouard de Barthélemy — mayor of Courmelois, member of the National Academy of Reims — the castle was transformed into a command post during the Great War (General Paquette, 36th infantry division, 1916). Surrounded by three-hundred-year-old horse chestnut trees, the estate also houses a historic chapel and a calvary. After 35 years of dormancy, it has undergone a complete and careful renovation since 2014, respectful of its soul and open to the future.

Versatile spaces with high potential
The property consists of several complementary entities:
• The main residence — over 500 m² of living space, 7 suites, reception lounges, a central vaulted cellar, and a spacious, bright platform on the 3rd level, ideal for new developments.
• A charming guesthouse — currently operational, highly regarded and with immense potential for tourism development. The continuation of the current gîte rental activity is entirely feasible, with a loyal clientele and an established reputation.
• The former governess's house — 87 m² fully renovated, perfect for independent accommodation (family, visitors, staff).
• A monumental lawned esplanade — with remarkable trees, suitable for garden parties, private events, and riverside tastings.
• A large buildable plot — offering wide possibilities for expansion or specific construction.
• A protected wood — with remnants of a chapel and cellar, suitable for recreational activities or walks.
• A large secure parking area — within the property.

Possible uses: residence, hospitality, events, company headquarters

Currently the main residence of the owners with hospitality activity, the estate is equally suited to a business project: prestigious headquarters, conference and seminar center, wine tasting house, private or professional reception venue. The immediate proximity to the vineyards of the Montagne de Reims, the Reims–Châlons-en-Champagne axis, and easy access to major thoroughfares make it a strategic and visible site.

A place of welcome, exchange, and friendship — for those who dare to write the next chapter of the story.
