The new life of a Renaissance castle, Midi-Pyrénées

Conveniently located between the city of Toulouse, the Pyrénées mountain range and the Atlantic coast, the Saint-Elix castle is erected in the heart of a 3,5-ha park. Built between 1540 and 1548 at the request of King François 1er’s secretary, the listed property was entirely renovated during five years. Providing 1,880 sq m of living space out of a 2,880 sq m area, the five-story castle features vintage elements such as moats and ancient portraits gallery. The ground floor boasts an entrance hall, a living room and three bedrooms with their own bathroom. Seven additional bedrooms complete with bathrooms are dispatched on two floors. « The sale comes with two projects in progress : a 18-hole international golf course and the estate project of luxury homes for sale near the golf course, » says Leggett Immobilier. Valued at €1,5m, the castle’s orangery can be sold separately. This gem is only 25 minutes away from Toulouse airport and 90 minutes away from the slopes.
