About the Property

Set on a picturesque plateau in the Haut-Bugey region, just 1 hour and 20 minutes from downtown Lyon, this charming estate—whose origins date back to the 14th century—exudes the nobility of its past.

Set on a picturesque plateau in the Haut-Bugey region, just 1 hour and 20 minutes from downtown Lyon, this charming estate—whose origins date back to the 14th century—exudes the nobility of its past.
Altered over the centuries and then restored in the 1950s following the fire that destroyed the old castle at the end of World War II, it has retained its soul and its medieval keep.

The main residence now offers approximately 311 m² of living space spread over three levels, extended by vast attics that are partially convertible.

The living areas, bathed in light, open widely onto two terraces—one facing south (65 m²) and one facing north (16.50 m²)—inviting you to enjoy the panoramic views and the surrounding tranquility. On the same level, there are also three bedrooms, an office, a bathroom, and a half-bath.

The upper floors feature five additional bedrooms, ideal for hosting family and friends, including one in the former keep, which elegantly evokes the property’s medieval history.

On the garden level, a vaulted cellar and garage attest to the property’s authentic character.

Several stone outbuildings complete the estate, including leased farm buildings and two houses—one of which is currently leased—offering potential for varied uses and rental income.

The property spans nearly 7 hectares, combining landscaped grounds and farmland (approximately 3.8 ha leased), with the option to also acquire several hectares of nearby woodland.

Just 1 hour from Geneva, 1 hour and 15 minutes from Lyon, and 40 minutes from Bourg-en-Bresse, with quick access to the highways and a 10-minute drive from the Nurieux-Volognat TGV/TER station, this rare property elegantly combines history, nature, and accessibility.

A true family home, timeless in its charm.
