This Property is For Sale by Agence Classic French Homes SARL      
Standing proudly on the banks of the River Lot, this magnificent medieval chateau was built to command its stretch of waterway and was, at one time, responsible for levying waterway tolls. Rooms are large and impressive and retain all of the character that you would expect of such a fortification - stone spiral staircases, impressive fireplace, exposed beams and vaulted ceilings to name a few. Whilst the chateau is authentic and bold, the gardens are more refined and genteel - elegant paths flanked with formal flower beds, symmetry, colour and variety - providing a contrasting and yet complementary setting. 'La piece de résistance' is undoubtedly the river itself which passes below the chateau along a river frontage of some 200m - perfect to enjoy from the terraces that line it. The six bedrooms in the chateau are complemented by a self-contained but connected Guardian's cottage, adding a further three bedrooms. In Detail… ENTRANCE HALL 4.38m (14'4") x 4.35m (14'3") Dominated by a magnificent set of stone spiral stairs, with doors to the Dining Room, Vaulted Room and Sitting Room.

BEDROOM 6 7.25m (23'9") x 3.33m (10'11") Whilst currently set up as a Bedroom, this would equally suit use as an open plan kitchen / living room, thereby creating a self-contained suite with Bedroom 6. With vaulted ceiling. VAULTED ROOM 7.82m (25'8") x 5.45m (17'11") Currently undeveloped, this would make a stunning room with a modest investment.
