An exceptional location for this Napoleon III style castle, located in Lot-et-Garonne, 40 minutes from the magnificent city of Bordeaux, its international airport and the TGV to Paris. The castle itself is approached via an ornate electric gate, and a paved driveway flanked by mature trees leads you to this property situated in a prime position. The current owners who have renovated the properties have managed to combine the original character of the buildings with contemporary living features such as geothermal heating in all 3 properties, burglar proof double glazing and a swimming pool for each property as well as a stable and a garage for several vehicles. The main castle offers an entrance hall with original Victorian tiled floor, bespoke kitchen, breakfast room, lounge, dining room with original marble fireplace, study with marble fireplace, a library (located in the tower), a ground floor double bedroom with an en-suite shower room, a storage room and a utility room. On the first floor is a large, light and airy landing which offers a balcony with French doors to one end. There are 5 double bedrooms, 2 of which have en-suite bathrooms and a further family bathroom. On the 2nd floor there are 2 further large rooms of 50m2 which are currently used as bedrooms but could easily be used as games rooms. There is also a contemporary 30m2 family bathroom on this level. Outside, the land is mainly covered with lawn and more than 1000 trees have been planted by the owners around the property lines to create a mini forest. The stables and the garage are located at the rear of the castle, between the main house and the two gîtes. A 4m x 15m Provençal style swimming pool is located to the side elevation. The gites have been renovated to the same standards as the main property and offer geothermal heating and individual swimming pools. They were created with architectural flair and offer a feeling of light and air. The gites are accessed via their own private driveway with private parking. Each cottage has a kitchen/lounge/dining room and all bedrooms have their own contemporary en-suite shower room. This chateau offers someone the opportunity to live in a historic building which has been luxuriously renovated to the highest standards, with existing seasonal rental income if required.
