Domaine De Montiernoz – 18th Century Castle And Its Park (Ain)

For more than seven centuries, the Domaine de Montiernoz has embodied the elegance and refined art of living of the Bresse region.

An 18th-Century Pleasure Château – 1.43-Hectare Estate – Saint-Jean-sur-Reyssouze (Ain, France)

The Domaine de Montiernoz, whose origins date back to the 13th century, is one of the oldest historic estates in the Bresse region. Enriched by more than seven centuries of history, it is now home to an elegant 18th-century pleasure château, meticulously restored with the utmost respect for its architectural heritage.

Beyond the majestic entrance gates, a tree-lined avenue adorned with centuries-old trees and stone statues leads to the château. Its perfectly symmetrical façade, remarkable glazed Burgundian tiled roofs with their distinctive diamond patterns, and magnificent double-flight ceremonial staircase perfectly illustrate the nobility and refinement of its architecture.

Set within the heart of a beautifully landscaped 1.43-hectare park, the property offers approximately 350 m² (3,767 sq ft) of living space, where generous proportions, noble materials, and modern comfort combine to create an exceptional lifestyle.

The reception rooms include a 39 m² drawing room, a second 28 m² sitting room, magnificent stone and marble fireplaces, and a spacious 38 m² country kitchen opening directly onto the gardens. A laundry room and guest facilities complete the ground floor.

The first floor features four bedrooms, including two elegant suites, each with its own original period fireplace.

Two bathrooms complete this level.

Beneath an impressive exposed timber framework, the top floor reveals a consecrated chapel, a games room with a billiard table, and a fifth bedroom with its own shower room.

The estate also includes over 100 m² of vaulted wine cellars, a 71 m² independent guest apartment, an orangery, a winter garden, a 68 m² garage, a woodshed, and an elegant heated swimming pool with its pool house.

Outside, centuries-old trees, a fountain, stone terraces, and the magnificent perspectives of the landscaped park create an atmosphere of rare serenity, inviting a timeless French art de vivre.
