Stunning Médiéval Chateau complex

Own a Piece of French History Have you ever dreamt of becoming the guardian of a château steeped in history? Now could be your chance. Part of this remarkable estate dates back to 1350, when it was elevated to château status by Royal decree of the King of France. Built as a fortress to protect its grounds and surrounding lands, the château today is both a thriving touristic holiday rental business and a magnificent private estate. Nestled in a private and tranquil setting in the Vienne department of central France, the property extends over 6.9 hectares of landscaped gardens, meadows, and river frontage, complete with two private islands. The estate includes the original dungeon of 1350, transformed into a unique and atmospheric wedding and events hall, the impressive château of 1492 with its tall tower overlooking the countryside, a two-bedroom gîte, a two-bedroom caretaker's cottage, a one-bedroom apartment, a vast two-level barn, a games room and library, a swimming pool with terraces, and an original bread oven. The château itself has been sympathetically renovated, blending modern comfort with authentic medieval character. On the ground floor, the original wooden door of the tower opens into a hallway that reveals the spiral granite staircase, its steps worn smooth by centuries of use. A large living room with monumental fireplace, a rustic country kitchen designed for both family life and professional catering, a downstairs bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and a vaulted stone cellar ideal for wine tastings complete this level. The first floor offers two grand bedrooms with stylish but authentic bathrooms, while the vast attic above remains undeveloped, providing exceptional potential for further accommodation. Adjoining the château is a spacious games room with a craft room above, and to the other side stands a huge barn housing machinery and a brand-new pellet boiler, with a vast attic that could be converted into an impressive events hall. Within the main courtyard lies the owners' cottage, comprising an open-plan living space, kitchen, storeroom, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. Opposite stands the original 1350 dungeon, once three levels high in the days of the Templar Knights and still retaining its original fireplace, now used as a wedding hall. A further two-bedroom cottage with a modern kitchen and bright lounge opens onto the swimming pool terrace, while a small apartment provides additional rental income. The grounds are equally enchanting, offering shrubbed gardens, vegetable plots, meadows, wooded areas, and a terrace viewpoint leading down to the river below. The current owners have carried out extensive and tasteful renovations, yet the estate still holds enormous untapped potential for further development, events, or the expansion of its successful rental business. This château is more than a property ? it is a living piece of history, filled with character, romance, and possibility. Words and photos cannot capture its magic. A personal visit is essential to truly experience the atmosphere of this extraordinary estate.
