FULL DESCRIPTION
A breathtakingly beautiful 13th-century castle on the banks of the Lot River
Situated in a commanding position on the banks of the Lot River, this 13th-century castle is a true gem historic, beautiful, and restored to a standard that would impress even the most discerning castle enthusiast. With its centuries of history and impressive restoration, it now combines old-world charm with all the practical comforts of modern living.
With a Viessmann geothermal heat pump installed underground, double glazing, and wood-burning stoves, the château has elegantly entered the 21st century and is in excellent condition. The difficult work—and the expense—has been taken care of, leaving the next owner free to move in and enjoy.
Inside, you'll find stone spiral staircases, vast beamed ceilings, ancient terracotta floors, vaulted rooms, painted frescoes, and magnificent fireplaces—in short, all the features one would expect to find in a French château, all beautifully maintained. This is certainly not the usual faded pile waiting to be rescued; this one has already received the five-star treatment.
The accommodation comprises nine luxurious bedrooms and several grand yet comfortable reception rooms. The modern, fully equipped kitchen opens through French doors onto a wisteria-covered terrace overlooking the river arguably the best spot in France for an evening aperitif. The château also boasts a gym, a wine cellar, and a spacious attic ripe for future development, making it ideal for a private residence or a high-end hospitality business.
Outside, 16 hectares of parkland stretch down to the river, with expansive lawns, specimen trees, and direct access to the water. There's a ruined stone mill house and a private mooring, so you can go out to dinner by boat—much easier (and frankly more fun) than driving. Add to that excellent fishing, a heated pool with an electric cover, a sun terrace, and probably the prettiest pool house in southwest France, and you'll understand why this place is special.
Within the estate grounds is a magnificent vaulted stone banquet hall, ideal for weddings, concerts, or any other festive occasion. Several barns, garages, and an estate office complete the picture, all situated behind attractive entrances and beautifully landscaped gardens.
If you're looking for a serious country house with pedigree, comfort, and a touch of fun, this castle is not for you. Contents available through separate negotiation; please form an orderly queue!
