Unique opportunity to acquire a beautifully renovated historical French Chateau with separate apartment and Chapel, surrounded by 56 acres of glorious land and gardens with pool, while enjoying far reaching countryside views from its peaceful location in Casteljaloux.

This Renaissance castle, one of whose towers was built in the 12th century under Eleanor of Aquitaine, has been meticulously renovated in recent years. The castle, full of history, is a French historical monument. It is open to the public to visit and learn about the reason for its construction, its role during the religious wars and more.

Ideally located, the property is situated in Lot-et-Garonne, only 1 hour from the beautiful river city of Bordeaux, and 1h 30 minutes from Toulouse, both of which have an international airport.

An avenue of trees leads to the majestic entrance of the property, built on three levels and comprising two towers as follows:

On the right wing is a kitchen, a breakfast room, the traditional living room, a reception room as well as a library and a small theatre used for the chateau's historical Renaissance evenings with costumed characters and music from the past.

On the left wing is an entrance hall with wrought iron gates and steps leading to the 80m2 reception hall, a library, and a dining room (castle kitchen) with original fireplace.

Two original stone spiral staircases lead to the first floor with 8 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. The estate also has a large reception room with two Renaissance fireplaces, often used for weddings or seminars, with a kitchen and scullery, a laundry room and indoor WCs for women and men.

There is also an independent flat with kitchen and bathroom, a garage and storage rooms. A chapel adjoining the chateau is used for weddings.

The property is located on 56 acre grounds with the most magnificently maintained topiary gardens that show off the history and class of the chateau.

When strolling through the gardens it is like taking a step back in time to the XVth century whilst still having modern luxury's such as a swimming pool.
