Sheltered from any nuisance as well as from prying eyes, the property is located in the centre of a village, in the heart of the Brie region, 1 hour and 15 minutes from Paris, in a highly preserved environment, with vast open landscapes and limited urban development. Close to Provins and Nangis, which offer all amenities, the location combines the quality of life of authentic countryside living with convenient access to Paris. Built in 1780, the château now stands as an elegant neoclassical residence, with a front staircase supporting a central balcony and a flat roof with balustrades. Its 1.4-hectare, , approximately 3.5 acres, enclosed and wooded park offers a variety of spaces, enhanced by shaded pathways, large lawns, and an ornamental pond. It also includes a large indoor heated swimming pool, as well as outbuildings with enclosed garages, carports, and various storage areas. The residence is bathed in light throughout the day thanks to its dual east and west exposure and the numerous large windows in each room. Following the recent restoration it has undergone, it now offers high-quality features, including four luxurious bathrooms and a fully equipped, top-of-the-range kitchen. This comfort and modernity do not, however, detract in any way from the authenticity of the property, which has retained all the architectural and decorative elements that give it its charm and value. It still features stone floors with cabochon inlays, Versailles-style parquet flooring, mouldings, coffered ceilings, as well as magnificent period fireplaces and woodwork. The heating system, supplied from the cellar, distributes warm air into each room through highly decorative period brass grilles. The condition and location of the property, as well as its potential, make it a rare offering that is equally suitable as a primary residence or a second home. Indeed, its proximity and ease of access to Paris, both by car and train, make it possible to work there while living in the countryside. Likewise, the rural and preserved environment, the large park, and the swimming pool give it the appeal of a leisure residence.
