Fabulous 15th century 5 bedroom French Chateau with separate 3 bedroom house and outbuildings, nestling in 10 hectares of glorious land while enjoying panoramic views from its peaceful, elevated location in Occitanie.

Situated 45 minutes from Toulouse, this historic property was originally built between the 15th and 16th centuries by a member of the court of Louis XI on the site of an even older chateau dating from the end of the 14th century. Mostly rebuilt in the 16th century. During the 16th and 17th centuries, several kings and bishops stayed in this wonderful place and in the 17th century it was adapted and redesigned.

The castle, with an area of 1,000 m2, consists of two wings arranged around a courtyard with four towers, one at each corner. The towers had their crowns removed during the revolution at the base of the machicolations.

A lovely dry moat surrounds the property. An impressive bridge over the moat leads between the two towers which are the remains of the old Chatelet and leads to a pretty arched porch in the courtyard and the main entrance.
