Property description

Located in the heart of the Loir Valley, this listed Renaissance château is one of the loveliest and most famous chateaux in this region.

The chateau has beautiful architectural features including moulded French ceilings. There is a guardroom, a large 16th century fireplace, a gorgeous staircase, and 11 bedrooms. Some of the rooms were renovated during the 18th century and have wood or tile floors and 18th century fireplaces.

The outbuildings include: a large 18th century building with horse stalls, a museum, and garages. The upper floors contain former staff lodging which could be converted into comfortable apartments. There is also a superb dove cote from the 17th century.

Near the chateau is a large, lovely post-gothic decoration (folly) built in 1830 that leans on a hill. Based on the ruins of the former feudal chateau, it was built out of bricks and stone and is listed as a historical monument.

The chateau has a wonderful French-style garden, Italian-style gardens, a labyrinth, a terrace garden, and woods partially closed by walls. The property is about 7.4 hectares.

This price is open to negotiation.
