In the heart of the village of Busséol, this 18th-century château stands out for its iconic architecture and exceptional construction, making it a true heritage site of the commune. Built in 1784 by Antoine Jouvet, a royal notary and public prosecutor, it features the date of its construction on one of its oculi, accompanied by symbolic marks of the master builders, such as the shell of Saint-Jacques, the intertwined knot, or emblems of the companions of the compass and square. Preserved in the same family for over fifty years, the château has been improved and modernized while maintaining its remarkable character and the elegance of its original architecture. The south facade opens onto a wooded park of over one hectare, basking in sunlight throughout the day. A winding path elegantly traverses the estate from the entrance gate to the château, creating a majestic approach. A Desjoyaux pool measuring 8 × 4 meters completes this peaceful environment. The entrance showcases the nobility of period materials, with an Arkose stone floor, lime-plastered walls, and a stone staircase with a wrought-iron railing. The central kitchen of 31 m² features a Volvic stone floor and a fireplace equipped with a bread oven. The dining room of 32 m² is enhanced by a herringbone parquet floor. The 56 m² living room, with its antique tiles and French ceiling, offers generous volumes. An office of 33 m² completes this level, which represents 195 m², along with a 134 m² garage accessible at ground level from the street, at the north facade. Upstairs, four bedrooms stand out for their beautiful proportions. Three of them exceed 20 m², while the master suite of 38 m² includes an adjoining room that can accommodate an office or a child’s bedroom. A bathroom completes this level, along with an old exhibition room of 70 m², offering remarkable potential for artistic, professional, or event use. The château also features 3 vaulted cellars of 100 m² and a reception room of approximately 80 m² equipped with a bar, ideal for hosting events. The attic provides a raw space of 280 m², allowing for the development of new areas. The construction relies on the use of local and durable materials, identical to those used for the iconic buildings of the region. The entire property has been consistently maintained and is now presented in remarkable condition, true to its historical identity. Busséol enjoys a privileged location, close to Clermont-Ferrand (30 minutes) and easily accessible from Lyon, offering an ideal balance between a preserved natural environment and proximity to urban centers. This positioning makes the property suitable for both family living and a hotel, cultural, or event project. This château, preserved by the same family for over fifty years, now opens the door to a new project. Its discovery reveals its architectural dimension, the quality of its volumes, and the unique atmosphere of a residence shaped by several centuries of history.
