Have you ever dreamed of château life?
Built in 1850, this elegant property has retained the timeless charm of a grand country house. Set within beautiful grounds where centuries-old trees stand alongside a thousand-year-old olive tree, it still possesses the character and generous proportions of a true family château.

With approximately 390 sq m of living space and 10 bedrooms, it offers a wonderful setting in which to write a new chapter — as a family residence, country retreat or venue for events.

ARCHITECTURE WITH A SOUL
From the moment you enter, the character of the house is revealed. A grand staircase beneath a Murano glass chandelier sets the tone, leading to interiors rich in period detail: ornate mouldings, wood panelling, generous ceiling heights and Art Deco features create an atmosphere suspended in time.

Its generous proportions, numerous bedrooms and reception rooms offer exceptional potential for an elegant renovation, while preserving the spirit of the property. Here, there is no need to create a soul — it is already there, waiting to be revealed.

A PARK DESIGNED FOR LIVING AND ENTERTAINING
Outside, the estate unfolds into a world of its own. An exceptionally large covered swimming pool, a private tennis court, mature grounds and beautiful timber-framed outbuildings create a rare setting for entertaining, relaxing and enjoying life to the full.

The outbuildings also offer scope for a variety of projects, from reception spaces and private events to activities or accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions. A generous estate, ready to be refreshed, offering both privacy and endless possibilities.

A sleeping beauty, rich in character and potential, awaiting new owners to bring her back to life. In Marsais, just 15 minutes from Surgères and its TGV high-speed rail link, 30 minutes from Niort and 40 minutes from La Rochelle and the Atlantic coast.

Could your next chapter begin here? Come and discover the château — and make château life your own.
