Description

Large enough to accommodate an extensive party, and yet small enough to be homely, this chateau offers flexible accommodation spread over four plus floors in the main chateau. The finish is at times grand, others low-key, and complemented wonderfully by the terraces and balconies that surround it. The swimming pool is surrounded by a very private terrace - ideal for dippers and sunbathers alike.

Additional accommodation is provided by two adjoined cottages located discreetly off the drive - ideal for guests, guardians or family. The dependences are also home to two large garages - ideal for the car or hobby enthusiast, whilst a small chapel provides additional possbilities. Situated on the edge of a small village, the grounds boast both formal gardens, large ornamental pond, as well as woods and fields. Whilst very much a country setting, the property is located in striking distance of planes, trains and automobiles - and whether primary residence or second home, it is readily accessible. Indeed, the large gates and fence that encircle the property make for an ideal lock up and leave investment.
