A Country Estate With Ancillary Residences Nestled Near Historic Medieval Villages

EXCLUSIVE TO MAXWELL BAYNES CHRISTIE’S INTERNATIONAL REAL ESTATE

Spectacular THREE property Estate : Napoleonic Chateau, Renovated Tobacco Barn and Stone Farmhouse - all with their own Swimming Pool.

Discover the romance and opulence of the Napoleon III era in this breathtaking eight bedroom chateau, a rare architectural gem nestled in the heart of South-West France. Once the private estate of local 19th-century aristocracy, this property is a masterful testament to the Second Empire style—a period defined by its dramatic symmetry, theatrical presence, and exquisite attention to detail.

In addition, two meticulously renovated properties: a sleek, contemporary barn conversion and a charming stone farmhouse, each has its own private swimming pool.  Designed and renovated by an architect these two residences blend rustic character with sustainable modern luxury.

Napoleonic Chateau (655.2m²): Eight bedrooms, six bathrooms.
Renovated Tobacco Barn (146.9 m²): Three bedrooms, three bathrooms.
Stone Farmhouse (273.9 m²): Four bedrooms, three bathrooms.

An Architectural Icon
The Chateau commands attention with its imposing silhouette, characterized by the hallmark Mansard roof and ornate stonework that define the grandeur of the 1850s. The interior is equally impressive, offering an authentic ”jewel-box” aesthetic. With deep, moody color palettes that evoke the mystery of the era, the residence is designed to be as palatial as it is intimate.

Ground Floor: Where History Meets Modern Living

The ground floor serves as the stage for grand entertaining. Expansive, light-filled reception rooms flow effortlessly into a bespoke kitchen, cleverly integrated into the tower structure—a unique design feature that marries historical charm with premium, professional-grade appliances. 

Beyond the kitchen, the ground floor offers:
The Tower Study: A dedicated sanctuary featuring floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and quietude.
A seamless layout: Includes a spacious laundry, mudroom, and a private, accessible ground-floor bedroom with an en-suite bathroom.
The Grand Escalier: The home’s architectural centerpiece. This sculptural staircase is designed to be the focal point of the arrival experience, offering a dramatic, artistic transition between levels.

First & Second Floors: Private Sanctuaries

The first floor hosts five meticulously appointed bedrooms and three luxury bathrooms, each offering privacy and classic charm. The second floor—situated within the elegant Mansard roof—is a highlight of the property. Once used by the household staff, these expansive attic rooms have been reimagined into two charming, light-filled guest bedrooms, along with a spacious bathroom, and a versatile workroom.
