The Château – 1,282 m² of Living Space

From the moment you enter, the tone is set: grand volumes, abundant natural light, and an timeless atmosphere.
The spacious reception rooms, lounges, dining areas, and generous bedrooms invite you to host, to dream, and to imagine new stories within these historic walls.
The top floor is entirely dedicated to the sleeping quarters, offering five bedrooms and convertible attics, preserving the charm of a bygone era.

Heritage enthusiasts will appreciate all the details that make a historic home so captivating: mosaic floors, Toledo ceramics, sculpted fireplaces, herringbone parquet floors, finely crafted woodwork — elements that reflect the craftsmanship of another time.

The property, already organized into two apartments and two professional units, offers exceptional flexibility, suitable for a variety of project types.
