Exceptional Chateau in Excellent Location.

Property Description

Proudly presented by Robert Richards this truly exceptional chateau is just 25 minutes from downtown Carcassonne set in beautiful rolling countryside.

The drive from Carcassonne to the property is one of the most scenic routes in the region with avenues of giant plane trees, pretty villages and stunning views of the Pyrenées mountains as the road sweeps down to the chateau.

The chateau is set in a park of 10 hectares situated on the edge of a small village and faces onto part of the ancient village church. Hosting weddings at this property would be perfect. The chateau has a private entrance from the park directly to the church and the wedding party can simply walk from the church directly on to the chateau grounds facing onto the orangerie which already boasts a bar area with guest toilets.

The interior of the chateau manages to combine warmth and grandeur providing welcoming human sized spaces rarely found in properties of this size.

The ground floor living and dining areas are perfectly proportioned for entertaining and family living. Panelled double doors offer a sense of occasion between the various rooms and once opened the spaces link together seamlessly so catering to large gatherings is made easy.

Rarely seen sculpted plaster panels adorn doors and hand painted ceilings and all principal rooms have marble fireplaces offering a rarified glimpse into the rich history of this property.

The large family kitchen offers a comfortable space for all the family with auxillary rooms and walk in pantry and access direct onto the rear patio, swimming pool and park beyond.

The chateau has 6 very large bedroom suites, one medium sized suite and a self contained 3 bedroom apartment in it's own annexe with a separate ground floor entrance perfect for staff or visitors.

As there are multiple living areas on the ground and first floors there is the possibility to create additional bedrooms if required.

`The extensive park offers a large green space planted with many varieties of plants and established trees including giant oak and cypress. At the end of the park a public tow path runs around a lake teaming with birdlife.

This exceptional property could be the perfect private family home or has huge potential as an accommodation or events venue.
