Superb French Chateau in the countryside of the South West of France set in an estate of over 180 acres, including vineyards and equestrian facilities, within easy reach of a town with amenities.
This renaissance style chateau was rebuilt at the start of the 20th century on the site of a 16th century Gascon chateau. Its vineyards and parkland offer many opportunities to a discerning buyer. The crop is currently maintained and sold to a nearby cooperative. The wide range of outbuildings show that it was once an independent concern. With some fenced paddocks, a small lunge pen and 4 stables it is suitable for equestrian pursuits.
There is an in ground swimming pool for relaxation and terraces around the chateau for entertaining or relaxing. A converted dovecote could be used as a gite and with some renovation, other outbuildings could provide additional accommodation.
In a private location not far from facilities, the spacious 13 bedroom property is full of character features. It boasts an hexagonal tower at one end and a round tower at the other. Internally there are numerous features of note including fireplaces, flooring, staircases and traditional oak woodwork and tiles.
