Dans Le Nord De La Charente, Sur Un Terrain De 8 Ha, Un Domaine Avec Un Château Du XI Xe Siècle, Un

In the northern Charente, within 8 ha of grounds, an estate with a 19th-century château, an 18th-century main house, and numerous outbuildings in need of renovation. Past the gate, a drive runs through woodland before leading to the property’s various buildings. Built in the 19th century by the architect Paul Abadie, the eclectic château with its slate roof blends references to several periods and influences. The Middle Ages appear in the columns topped with capitals, the Renaissance in the mullioned windows, while brick and stone recall the 17th century. The oriels, for their part, echo British manor houses. The building rises three levels plus cellar and attic and comprises several reception rooms on the ground floor, with eleven bedrooms and seven bathrooms on the two upper levels.

The main house, whose central section dates from the 18th century and whose side sections and facade date from the 19th, shows a more understated architecture, typical of the region. On the ground floor it houses two sitting rooms, a dining room, a kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom; six bedrooms and two bathrooms occupy the level above.

A farmstead further on brings together a house, barns, cowsheds, and a woodstore. Other outbuildings bear witness to the estate’s former wine-growing and cognac production, among them a press house, a chai fitted with vats, and a building given over to bottling. A former caretaker’s house, stables, garages, and the groom’s house are dotted across the remainder of the grounds, extensive at 8 ha.
