In the heart of Beaujolais, in a dominant position offering a 180° panoramic view over the vineyards, the valley and up to the Alps, discover this characterful castle built between 1867 and 1869, accompanied by its old wine cellar, within an estate of more than 3.5 hectares. Accessible by an elegant tree-lined driveway, the property enjoys a peaceful and preserved environment, close to amenities. Lyon and its international airport are about an hour away, while the Mâcon-Loché TGV station is reachable in 40 minutes. The castle stands out for its symmetrical architecture, its round tower housing a spiral staircase, its stone facades and its remarkable glazed tile roof. Spanning about 300 m² over three levels, it offers beautiful volumes and preserves several original elements, including fireplaces, old parquet floors, terracotta tiles and vaulted cellars. The ground floor houses the reception rooms, including a living room, dining room, lounge and kitchen, with direct access to the terrace overlooking the valley. The first floor comprises four bedrooms, two bathrooms and toilets. The top level, currently open-plan, offers a large space under the roof that can be entirely restructured. The whole requires significant interior renovation work, offering the opportunity to rethink the spaces while preserving the architectural character of this historic residence. An old wine cellar and its outbuildings, representing about 540 m², complete the property. These buildings, formerly dedicated to winemaking and storage, offer generous volumes that can accommodate various rehabilitation projects. The estate covers about 3.53 hectares, including a tree-lined driveway, grassy areas and sloping farmland, in a remarkable natural setting. This property with authentic charm will appeal to heritage lovers looking for a unique place to restore, whether as a character family home or a real estate development project. A rare opportunity to breathe new life into an old winery estate, in one of the most emblematic landscapes of Beaujolais.
