19C Château for Refurbishment Set in 2.75 Hectares of Parkland

Property Description

It now requires a major overhaul, renovation, and redecoration to bring it back to its former glory. On top of the competitive purchase price a buyer should budget perhaps the same again for a full refurbishment including, insulation, heating and drainage systems as well as development of leisure facilities outside.

The accommodation is developed over ground, first and second floors and divided into 3 main suites with 3 further bedrooms. The large scale of the accommodation and extensive level parkland have potential for commercial events such as seminars or a wedding venue. The property is currently filled with a collection of decorative items and can be sold as seen or handed over empty.
