Magnificent 19th Century Castle

Property Description

Built from 1830 to 1834 at the request of the sub-prefect of Périgueux, baron and adviser to the Royal Court of Bordeaux as well as municipal councilor of Sorges, this magnificent property was first of all for wine-growing, to then become a cereal producer with an episode fruit tree. From a slightly crazy childhood dream, were born the buxaies, the rose garden...a superb French garden, designed by the current owner, totally self-taught. He began to trace, plant, grow using all his sketches, helped by friends: he did a colossal job in just under 10 years. We go from one floor to another, from surprise to astonishment. The castle has 8 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, 2 large living rooms with mouldings, one of which can accommodate the art school, for a living area of 1000 m2. From its magnificent staircase, you will reach 2 half-floors as well as a first floor. This exceptional complex benefits from beautiful amenities, high ceilings and cornices, double doors, a magnificent central hall, several fireplaces and a breathtaking view of its gardens. On 18 hectares of land, you will find various outbuildings including a caretaker's house, a large shed, tank and watering system. A reception room (currently used as a souvenir shop) as well as a large car park can accommodate the public. You will also find an apartment to finish renovating, public toilets, as well as another gite and a shed. Only 20 mins from Périgueux, it is ideally exposed so that you can enjoy its environment but also local services. Oil fired central heating. Land tax of 3432?.
