Built on the site of a former chateau, this fine country mansion, built 1912-14 to the design of a Dutch architect, is unique to the area. It stands majestically on a gentle rise, set in beautiful parkland, and enjoys splendid views of the surrounding countryside, stretching far into the distance. It is secluded but not isolated. It is built of Toulouse brick and stone, and has an abundance of period features which contribute to its immense character, rather like the elegant country house style of the British Edwardian era. Despite its size, the house is intimate, warm and welcoming – a lovely family home, though it could equally be used as superior chambres d’hôte, each of its 8 bedrooms having en suite facilities. The main entrance is via stone steps up to a loggia with double doors into the hallway with marble tiled floor and main staircase to the first floor. Central to the house is a second staircase with a 'puits de jour' - light well - leading to all floors; all the rooms are arranged neatly around this and each has its own particular features. These include exquisite, decorative plasterwork friezes and ceilings; wood panelling; fireplaces of marble and carved wood; parquet and tiled floors; windows with stained glass; stone balconies and terraces. Habitable space is generous over all 3 floors with grand salon, dining room, conservatory, breakfast kitchen, 8 en suite bedrooms; ceilings are high. Space here is insufficient to do full justice to the property, so please ask for our special e-mail brochure.
There is parkland of 1.8 hectares (4.5 acres), entered via electric gates set in stone pillars. A new driveway will shortly be laid. The woodland includes oak trees, a cork oak, pine, cedar, plane and lime. There is an unusual Austrian-designed eco-pool, 5m x 12m, providing a natural swimming environment with various water plants, including water lilies, which clean the water biologically. There are some small outbuildings of restricted space, 34m2 floor space total, comprising workshop, ‘den’, wood store and garden store. |
