Magnifico Castello Fortificato Del XVI Secolo Vicino Ad Albi

Just 10 minutes from the historic city of Albi, home to its UNESCO World Heritage-listed cathedral, and less than an hour from Toulouse International Airport, this exceptional fortified château offers a rare blend of history, elegance, and modern comfort.

Dating from the 16th century, the château has been meticulously restored by its current owners, preserving its remarkable architectural heritage while creating a comfortable and versatile residence. The property is arranged as two beautifully maintained, self-contained apartments, making it ideal as a family home, multi-generational residence, or hospitality venture.

A striking entrance tower, featuring an original circular stone staircase dating back to the 1500s, provides access to the principal apartment on the first floor. This elegant living space includes a welcoming entrance hall, a spacious light-filled sitting room with an impressive period fireplace, a study, and a dining room opening onto terraces overlooking the 12m x 6m swimming pool. The charming kitchen occupies a smaller turret, while the accommodation further comprises three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Continuing up the tower staircase, a unique circular bedroom enjoys breathtaking panoramic views across the surrounding countryside.

The ground-floor apartment offers equally attractive accommodation, comprising a comfortable living room, a kitchen opening onto a private terrace, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms. Both apartments benefit from independent heating systems powered by an efficient pellet boiler.

Set within approximately two acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, the estate features a swimming pool with a summer kitchen and traditional bread oven, a fully renovated pigeonnier providing additional living accommodation with kitchen and shower room, and an orchard of around 30 fruit trees. Two wells and three garages further enhance the property’s appeal.

Additional amenities include a sauna, wine cellar, workshop, and an impressive vaulted cellar, completing this remarkable country estate.

Combining centuries of history with exceptional modern comfort, this unique château represents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished property in one of southwest France’s most sought-after locations.
