Angoulême Castle

BARNES Propriétés & Châteaux offers for sale this authentic 17th and 18th-century château, listed as a Historic Monument.

Located in the heart of an estate of about 15 hectares, bordered by the Charente River, this heritage property offers a rare, preserved, and historically rich living environment.

Away from any disturbances, the property enjoys a privileged rural location, just 15 minutes from the center of Angoulême and the TGV station, which connects to the capital in just over 2 hours. Basic amenities are available within 5 minutes.

A beautiful driveway leads to the estate and the entrance porch, which opens onto a large courtyard. Surrounding it are the château and its numerous outbuildings, forming a remarkable enclosed ensemble.

Different eras coexist harmoniously here, creating an architectural ensemble full of character, whose charm has been preserved over the centuries.

The main residence retains many original decorative elements: fireplaces, 18th-century woodwork, old floors, frescoes, period staircase, and a remarkable vaulted kitchen. Large openings extend the interior spaces with beautiful views of the gardens and park.

The reception rooms are both authentic and bright, offering generous volumes in a period setting. The upper floors house no fewer than nine bedrooms.

A significant part of the château still requires restoration. This layout offers future owners the opportunity to continue enhancing this historic home and fully reveal its potential while respecting its heritage character.

The numerous outbuildings are another major asset of the property. Barns, former stables, and a large columned canopy illustrate the traditional organization of large rural estates and today offer multiple possibilities for use and transformation.

Subject to necessary permissions, these spaces could accommodate equestrian facilities, reception areas, independent housing, workshops, or various tourism-related projects.

The estate covers about 15 hectares and includes a wooded park, forest, and meadows. The entire property benefits from a particularly well-preserved natural environment and enjoys the presence of the Charente River along its boundary.

Over the years, many preservation works have been undertaken, notably on the roofs, facades, outbuildings, and some decorative elements, helping to maintain the residence.

While significant interior work remains to be done, the property currently has a solid foundation for a major restoration and enhancement project.

A rare estate, rich in history and with remarkable potential, just minutes from Angoulême.

Property not subject to energy performance diagnosis (DPE).
