A 19th-Century Château with a Private Chapel and 5.8 hectares of Park land : 35 kilometres south-east of Paris, in the heart of the Essonne Valley and on the doorstep of the Gâtinais Français Regional Natural Park, this remarkable 19th-century château embodies the elegance and refinement of France’s grand country estates in an unspoilt natural setting.

Built around 1850 on the foundations of an earlier château, the property offers approximately 1,200 sqm of living space spread over four levels. Beyond its majestic entrance gates, a formal courtyard leads to a classical façade inspired by 18th-century architecture, where sculpted pediments, stone sphinxes, elegant columns and corner towers create a residence of exceptional character.

Inside, time seems to stand still. A succession of grand reception rooms showcases original wood panelling, Versailles and Hungarian point parquet flooring, marble fireplaces, ornate mouldings and gilded details. The true jewel of the estate is its beautifully preserved Neo-Romanesque private chapel, featuring original stained-glass windows, a painted star-lit ceiling and remarkably rich period decoration.

The upper floors accommodate more than twenty bedrooms, offering exceptional potential for a prestigious family residence, an exclusive hospitality project or an elegant venue for entertaining.

The estate extends across nearly 5.8 hectares of landscaped grounds, combining formal gardens, centuries-old trees, woodland, a natural spring, a historic washhouse and sweeping views across the valley. Every path reveals a new perspective, creating an atmosphere of rare tranquillity.

The outbuildings complete the estate perfectly: fully restored Neo-Gothic stables converted into a charming 200 sqm residence with swimming pool, an additional wing currently being renovated, and a caretaker’s house divided into three independent apartments.

Located just 40 minutes from Paris, five minutes from the RER station and 40 minutes from Orly Airport, this exceptional property seamlessly combines heritage, elegance and the French art of living. A truly rare estate where history, architecture and nature come together to create an extraordinary place to call home.

Un château du XIXe siècle, avec sa chapelle privée, ses dépendances et son parc de 5,8 hectares à seulement 35 kilomètres de Paris, au cœur de la vallée de l’Essonne et aux portes du Parc naturel régional du Gâtinais français, ce remarquable château du XIXe siècle déploie tout le raffinement des grandes demeures françaises dans un environnement préservé.

Édifié vers 1850 sur les fondations d’un ancien château, il développe près de 1 200 m² habitables répartis sur quatre niveaux. Derrière sa majestueuse grille d’entrée, une cour d’honneur mène à une architecture classique inspirée du XVIIIe siècle, où colonnes, frontons sculptés, sphinges en pierre et tours d’angle composent une silhouette d’une rare élégance.

À l’intérieur, le temps semble suspendu. Les salons de réception en enfilade dévoilent boiseries d’époque, parquets Versailles et points de Hongrie, cheminées en marbre, moulures et dorures. Véritable joyau du domaine, la chapelle privée néo-romane, parfaitement conservée, impressionne par ses vitraux d’origine, son ciel étoilé peint et son exceptionnel décor.

Les étages accueillent plus de vingt chambres, offrant un potentiel rare pour une grande demeure familiale, une résidence de réception ou un projet hôtelier de prestige.
Le domaine s’étend sur près de 5,8 hectares de parc paysager, entre jardins, arbres centenaires, sous-bois, source naturelle, ancien lavoir et perspectives ouvertes sur la vallée. Chaque promenade révèle un nouveau point de vue, dans un cadre d’une remarquable sérénité.

Les dépendances complètent harmonieusement l’ensemble : d’anciennes écuries néogothiques entièrement restaurées en maison d’environ 200 m² avec piscine, une extension en cours d’aménagement ainsi qu’une maison de gardien divisée en trois appartements indépendants.

À quarante minutes de Paris, cinq minutes d’une gare RER et quarante minutes de l’aéroport d’Orly, cette propriété d’exception conjugue patrimoine, élégance et art de vivre. Une demeure rare, où l’histoire, l’architecture et la nature se rencontrent pour offrir un cadre de vie unique.
