Chateau history
Throughout its rich history, the ownership of this chateau has passed through the hands of esteemed families, each contributing to its legacy. In the 15th and 16th centuries, the Couvidat family held sway over its grandeur. By the late 1630s, the Vidart family of Saint-Etienne became its custodians. In 1754, the Viot de la Vergne family took ownership, and during the tumultuous times of the Revolution, a the Roudareix called this residence home.
The Rocquart family assumed ownership in 1846, marking another chapter in the chateau's storied past, and subsequently, it found itself under the care of the Chastenet family, who continue to hold the keys to its historical charm. Poised on a hill, the chateau commands a panoramic view of the village of Lesterps, standing as a timeless testament to the passage of time.
The architectural splendor unfolds across multiple levels, encompassing a basement, ground floor, first and second floors, and a spacious attic room. The roof, adorned with slates, features long sides and broken rumps, punctuated by dormers that add to its distinctive character. A half-finished round tower at the rear houses the staircase, crowned by a broken conical roof seamlessly connected to the main roof.
Lime-covered elevations, crafted with precision, showcase the enduring craftsmanship of the era, with corner chains and opening frames meticulously fashioned from granite. The ensemble is completed by outbuildings, including a barn, a stable, an altered dwelling, and a well, adding layers of functionality to the chateau's historical charm.Contact agent about this property

Summary
Ideally located in the charming little historic town of Gallardon, 1 hour's drive from Paris and 25 minutes from Chartres and Rambouillet, this large late 17th-century bourgeois house spans 235 m² under the Carrez law (over 300 m² including the attic), and has a very pretty 900 m² English-style garden outside.
Bordering a small, little-travelled street, the house reveals its imposing facade and its spacious interior.
From the moment you enter, the codes of the bourgeoisie of the period are apparent. Covered in a beautiful mosaic floor that continues down the long corridor, the entrance hall leads off to the left and right into a large, vast lounge with herringbone parquet flooring and a beautiful period fireplace, and a spacious dining room. A small boudoir-library adjoins, providing a cosy, relaxing atmosphere.
Location
Local shops, doctor, schools and collège.
Access
Épernon train station is 13 minutes away, taking you to Paris-Montparnasse in 1 hour. Orly airport, Massy TGV station and the Château de Versailles are 45 minutes away by car. The châteaux of the Loire Valley, easily accessible by motorway, are an hour and a half away by car.
Interior
This large living space is set against a striking backdrop, and benefits from plenty of natural light thanks to its many windows.
Crossing the house from one side to the other, the long corridor in turn distributes the living areas, and continues as far as the separate kitchen, which needs to be renovated and refitted.
Adjacent is a small, unfinished room that serves as a utility/laundry/boiler room. An old-fashioned staircase leads to a small spare bedroom with a water supply point, a fruit room and a very large attic in two interconnected sections with a good height under the roof that could be converted.
A final room with direct, independent access via the garden and also accessible via the upstairs shower room completes the ground floor accommodation.
A solid wood staircase from the Paris Universal Exhibition leads to the main floor of the house, where a long landing leads to four pretty bedrooms, one of which has a shower room and a very large one in the corner of the building, giving it multiple exposures. With the exception of one bedroom, all the rooms have pine and oak parquet flooring laid in herringbone pattern.
A good-sized shower room completes the upstairs accommodation.
Exterior
To the rear of the house is a large, bucolic and charming garden. Beautifully landscaped with a wide variety of trees and plants, it exudes a poetic atmosphere. A small paved path runs around the entire green space, at the centre of which are three interconnected ponds.
Entirely enclosed by walls, this large garden gives this large town house a natural, untamed country feel, and total privacy.
A double cellar, an enclosed garage for two cars and an annexe with attic, water tank and oil tank complete the ensemble.Contact agent about this property
