A Very Pretty 18th C. Chateau In The Nivernais Region

Ref. 4461: Charming 18th-century château for sale in the Nivernais region.

The current château is distinguished by its classical, balanced architecture, rising on three levels in an elegant rectangular building about 30 meters long. Its east facade is enhanced by two round towers, which harmoniously frame the building and give it a timeless character. On the west side, the château opens onto a formal French garden, whose geometric paths and carefully arranged flowerbeds reflect the art of traditional landscaping. A solidly built covered courtyard completes this facade by enclosing a square courtyard, reinforcing the impression of a functional and aesthetic ensemble. This layout offers the perfect combination of architectural refinement and connection with the surrounding nature, while exuding a welcoming and peaceful atmosphere.

Access to the ground floor is through a majestic central entrance that opens onto an elegant vestibule, beautifully paved in stone in a checkerboard pattern. This vestibule, the true centerpiece of the reception area, leads to a magnificent stone staircase, remarkable for its appearance and proportions, as well as the various reception rooms of the château:

- To the left of the entrance, the vestibule leads to a study and a vast, light-filled lounge of over 50 sqm. This lounge, featuring elegant herringbone parquet flooring, is enhanced by a beautiful stone fireplace, adding to the room’s charm and authenticity. It also provides access to a second study in the south tower, ideal for an intimate and refined workspace.

Nearby is a kitchen with an impressive wooden fireplace, ideal for convivial moments, as well as a scullery arranged in the north tower, offering a functional and discreet space. The kitchen also provides direct access to a service entrance opening onto the north facade, as well as a practical storage room.

On the first floor, accessible via the central staircase, the room layout follows the same elegant arrangement, with a parquet-covered vestibule. To the left of the landing is a superb master suite comprising, in the south tower, a bathroom equipped with a shower, bathtub, and WC, as well as a large fully fitted dressing room.
