About this Property

A beautifully renovated medieval chateau located in West Deux Sevres, close to a village with shops and a bakery, and nestled in a private park of 9.5 hectares (24 acres).

Built in the 15th century and significantly redesigned in the 19th (elegant north facade), this large stone property offers 860 m2 of living space and comprises:

- Ground floor: large dining kitchen, adjacent dining room with wood fired pizza oven, laundry room, 2 bedrooms with bathroom, summer kitchen opening up onto the sun terrace and pool area. Well equipped cellars.

- First floor: 4 large bedrooms with adjacent bathrooms, main salon, music room, WC. Stairs to upper and ground floors.

- Second floor: spectacular room/gallery of 273 m2, with adjacent kitchenette and double bedroom with ensuite shower room.

The property is presented in excellent condition and features an efficient and ecological heating system - Hargassner shredded wood boiler - located in the barn.

In the barn is also a caretaker cottage with living room, kitchen, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, 2 garages and lots of storage.

The park covers 9.5 hectares (around 24 acres) and includes gardens, orchard, terraced vegetable gardens and a beautiful wrought iron greenhouse, meadows and woodland.

Around the castle are planted magnificent trees, some hundreds of years old. A wrought iron bridge which leads across the dry moat supports white and purple flowering wisteria - gorgeous in spring.

The estate is crossed by a small river that feeds the canal and the medieval lavoir (wash house) located below the castle.

This is a beautiful, tranquil and private property, absolutely charming.

Poitou-Charentes

Deux-Sèvres

Parthenay

Poitou-Charentes

From the beaches of the Charente-Maritime through the Charente and Deux-Sevres to the lush green of the Vienne, Poitou-Charentes has something for everyone.  Coastal towns with some of the highest number of sunshine days per year, Cognac and goat’s cheeses (what a combo!) and fine properties set in pretty and unspoilt countryside.   And the value for money here has to be seen to be believed!

Testimonials

    Testimonial by Stuart and Lucy Binns

    As most people know, buying or selling a property is always complicated, especially if the process takes place across two countries.We recently sold our second home in Southwest France during a time when the market was not particularly vibrant. It was a difficult experience as it was a property we were very fond of.The whole process was handled by Judith Whitlow, who took care of the sale and of us with great aplomb.Not only was the process an emotionally demanding one, it was also subject to huge complexities – legal, technical, financial, and procedural.Judith’s fluency in French and English was vital, but her knowledge of all the myriad details, from the workings of fosse septiques to the nuances of tax law (in both countries) made a dangerous administrative minefield much easier to negotiate.In short, she guided us along the entire journey with great professionalism and personal empathy.We couldn’t recommend her, or Beaux Villages, more highly.
