Beautifully renovated 16th century Renaissance chateau

  • Superb quality renovation
  • Stunning, large light-filled reception rooms
  • Easy access to Poitiers, TGV and International Airport
  • Original vaulted kitchens
  • Breath-taking spiral stone staircases & period features
This stunning XVIth century Renaissance Chateau (ISMH Listed) has been exquisitely restored by its present owners using specialist artisans from across the region to faithfully retain the beauty and elegance of the period. Typical of the early renaissance period, the Chateau is oriented on an east/west axis to take full advantage of natural light and its twin towers lend grace & unity to the design. Built from luminescent “Tuffeau” stone under an ‘Angers’ slate roof, this remarkable chateau retains a wealth of authentic features including: spiral stone staircases, enormous mullioned stained-glass windows, monumental fireplaces and beautifully crafted floors and ceilings.

The main living accommodation is laid across 3 floors each of about 250m2, with cellars below and substantial attics above, and the grounds extend to just under 4500m2. The entire lower ground floor at garden level, with its impressive vaulted stone ceilings, would have been entirely taken up by kitchens but now offers a series of interconnecting reception rooms. The ground floor & first floor comprise the grand reception rooms, a dining room, a library, a small chapel or oratory, a recently fitted kitchen and bedrooms with ensuite facilities. The substantial attics are accessed by a stone spiral staircase in the “south tower”, and reveal the original timber roof structures.

The Chateau and its fully enclosed grounds are approached via impressive entrance gates from a quiet lane in a small town on the outskirts of thriving city of Poitiers, with the Futuroscope Technology Park, TGV station and international airport all within very easy reach. Currently operated as an exhibition centre and events venue, the unique combination of this stunning, historically important Renaissance Chateau, superbly restored in such an accessible location, makes it ideal either as the base for developing a range of business opportunities or reviving as a unique private residence.

Discuss an Offer

If this or other properties are of potential serious interest, you may wish to speak in confidence and without obligation or commitment with a sympathetic senior negotiator to discuss what flexibility there may be in the price.

Getting the right deal can be a question of good timing and we have that information.

Whatever you read in the press, it is simply not true that one can apply a percentage discount to the price of any property we like the look of. And it is a real shame to fall in love with a property that is beyond what you wish to spend or can afford.

To arrange a callback, please email in-confidence@beauxvillages.com
