Impressive 19th Century Château With Caretaker's House, Just 20 Minutes From Poitiers

Nestled in the heart of the 19th century, this magnificent château boasts a storied past beginning in the 16th century as Isabelle de Poitiers’ hunting retreat. With its imposing architectural beauty, the estate provides a cozy, inviting environment across 760 m² of living area, making it an ideal setting for hosting guests with elegance and comfort.

Previously serving as a bed and breakfast, the château’s design is perfectly suited for any hospitality venture, featuring numerous bedrooms and welcoming common areas.

The main level greets visitors with an impressive vaulted foyer, leading to refined lounges, dining areas, dual kitchens, a utility room, and a large office or conference space.
Ascending to the first floor, one finds six bedrooms, each boasting private bathrooms. Certain suites also include kitchenettes and lounges, affording guests additional comfort and solitude.
The top floor, mostly refurbished, presents four versatile rooms, with some arranged as studio apartments.

Extensive renovations have been undertaken, encompassing the roofing, sewage system, the majority of the main floor, and the entirety of the top floor. While the first-floor sleeping quarters are well-maintained, they could be enhanced with minor decorative updates.

The property extends over 10 hectares and features a guardian’s residence and a garage, both requiring renovation. A picturesque avenue of trees leads to the château, creating a genuine noble ambiance, while the grounds are dotted with ancient trees, contributing to the estate’s majestic appeal.

Strategically Positioned in the Historic, Lively Vienne Region

A mere 20-minute journey connects to Poitiers, a dynamic, historical city celebrated for its Romanesque buildings, ancient lanes, and vibrant academic scene. Once the Poitou region’s capital, Poitiers is a mosaic of cultural, historical, and culinary delights. Noteworthy attractions include the Church of Notre-Dame-la-Grande, the Palace of the Counts of Poitou, and an animated weekly bazaar.

The locale is also well-served by transport links. Poitiers features a TGV station with direct fast trains to Paris (1h20) and Bordeaux (1h), besides proximity to the A10 highway. Limoges airport, about 1 hour and 30 minutes distant, offers flights to several European cities.
