Description
This magnificent stone château is a unique property in the Bordeaux region, a rare example of Palladian architecture, enjoying a 360o view from the top of the hills, just 25 minutes from Bordeaux train station, 40 minutes from the airport, and 5 minutes from local shops.
Ideally located in the heart of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, one of France’s most captivating regions, this property offers an exceptional lifestyle where world-renowned vineyards, rolling countryside, and the nearby Atlantic coastline come together in perfect harmony — an invitation to experience the very essence of French art de vivre.
The estate extends over 29 hectares in a single block, including approximately 15 hectares of vineyards, and benefits from an impressive collection of outbuildings offering significant development potential.
Built in 1810 during the Directoire/Empire period, the château reflects the elegance of neoclassical architecture. Its refined U-shaped layout, inspired by Palladian design, features a central elevated residence adorned with a pediment supported by elegant columns. Two symmetrical wings frame a grand reception courtyard, while the rear façade opens onto a terrace overlooking a landscaped park of over one hectare.
The main residence offers approximately 430 sqm of living space, combining charm, volume, and authenticity. Reception rooms are filled with natural light and retain remarkable original features including stonework, decorative friezes, ceiling roses, Gironde tiles, and antique parquet flooring.
On the courtyard side: a kitchen, two dining rooms with fireplaces, a large and a smaller lounge, and a pantry. On the park side: four bedrooms, including one with en-suite bathroom, as well as a library and an office.
In addition, two independent apartments located in the west wing provide further accommodation, ideal for guests, staff, or complementary use.
A semi-basement level features a vaulted barrel cellar, renovated in 2005, offering both character and functionality.
The landscaped grounds include a 'Four Seasons Garden' with fountain, as well as a swimming pool with pool house and wooden terraces enjoying open views over the Entre-Deux-Mers countryside.
The property would benefit from a programme of refurbishment and enhancement, particularly regarding certain exterior features, offering its future owner the opportunity to elevate this historic estate to contemporary standards while preserving its authenticity.
A rare opportunity to acquire and reimagine a château lifestyle in one of Bordeaux’s most preserved and desirable settings.
