A Remarkable Historic Château Set Amidst the Idyllic Landscapes of the Ariège Set within the rolling countryside of the Ariège, close to the village of Betchat and surrounded by the exceptional landscapes of the Pyrénées Ariégeoises, Château de Castelbon is a rare and romantic estate of extraordinary character. Dating back to the Middle Ages, with its history traced to the early 13th century, this remarkable former fortified residence occupies an idyllic and wonderfully private setting of approximately 10 hectares, with the possibility of acquiring a further 18 hectares of predominantly woodland nearby. Approached by a long, impressive driveway, the château emerges from the landscape with commanding views towards the Pyrenees, creating an atmosphere of complete tranquillity and timeless rural elegance. The château is arranged around a beautiful central courtyard in a distinctive U-shaped configuration, with two substantial wings, four historic towers and an impressive chapel at its heart. Two square towers and two circular defensive towers, complete with surviving arrow slits and gun loops, bear witness to the property's medieval origins. Castelbon has a fascinating and distinguished history. Raimond At de Castelbon is recorded as Lord of Castelbon as early as the beginning of the 13th century, while in 1405 the château's archives were inventoried on the orders of Archambaud de Grailly, demonstrating its importance as a seigneurial and administrative centre. Over the centuries, the estate was associated with several notable families, including the Comminges and Joyeuse, before passing to Pierre de Bertier in the 16th century and subsequently to the Saint-Jean de Pointis family. In the 20th century, the château entered a new chapter as a model farm. Today, the property remains privately owned and offers an extraordinary opportunity to restore and complete a substantial historic estate while creating a truly exceptional home, hospitality destination or lifestyle business. Internally, the château retains an abundance of fabulous period features, including magnificent fireplaces, original stonework, characterful timber elements, historic stone staircases and an extraordinary chapel. The beautiful old tower staircases and surviving defensive architecture add to the property's unique sense of place. The accommodation extends to approximately 1,000 m2, subject to confirmation, with around 20 rooms and 7 8 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, together with a wealth of additional reception and leisure spaces. A magnificent entrance hall or atrium forms the heart of the main house, with twin staircases leading towards the principal reception rooms. There are generous salons and dining areas, a substantial kitchen with open fireplace, additional service rooms, a TV room, laundry and cellar spaces. One of the property's most impressive features is its ballroom, complete with bar, cloakrooms and extensive terraces overlooking the surrounding gardens. A substantial poêle de masse provides a wonderfully atmospheric focal point and creates an inviting setting for entertaining. The accommodation includes a generous principal bedroom suite, further bedroom suites and bedrooms, family accommodation, an artist's studio of approximately 50 m2, music room, tower rooms and former staff quarters offering further potential for renovation. At the centre of the château sits its beautiful historic chapel, an especially evocative feature which contributes enormously to the romantic character of the estate. A Home, Retreat or Exceptional Business Opportunity Over the past 20 years, significant renovation work has been undertaken, including a new roof, pellet-fired heating system, renewed bathrooms and extensive improvements to the interiors. Much of the transformation is in place, with some areas requiring final restoration and finishing. The scale and versatility of the château lends itself perfectly to a number of uses.

A manor house, outbuildings and swimming pool in a luminous clearing surrounded by 10 hectares of royal forest, 50 minutes from Toulouse . Invisible from the road, you discover the house when you turn a bend in a woodland path. It is sheltered behind a green wall of Scots pines, limes, ancient oaks, ferns and peaceful clearings. As if set down inside a bubble of greenery, it forms a discreet, almost secret unit with its outbuildings, swimming pool, pond and driveways, enveloped in more than 10 hectares of landscaped parkland and ancient forest. Most of the buildings have stone walls, some of which are rendered, and gable roofs with interlocking tiles. The three-storey residence, with almost 650 m² of living space, was probably built at the end of the 19th century and has been patiently restored after a period of neglect. Each stage of the work was guided by meticulous restoration of the original features: the old fireplaces, the oak or chestnut parquet flooring, the moulded ceilings, the stone window and door frames and the floors have been preserved or restored, with respect for the building. All of the utilities have been renewed: drainage, rainwater, pipes, electricity and heating. The main roof has been remodelled, and the roof of the annexe has been refitted. A stone pond and a fountain form a peaceful focal point around the house. The swimming pool is set nearby in a landscaped clearing, like a natural extension of the house, not far from a natural pool fed by a spring. There is also a well adjacent to the outbuildings, which still contains water. The overall effect is one of harmonious sobriety, typical of country manor houses, where practicality meets elegance. The top floor of the house, which is preserved in its original state and insulated under the rafters, offers huge conversion potential.
