On the edge of Dordogne, for sale fully restored chateau with swimming pool and guest house. The château nestles on the slopes of a small valley from which a cascade of ponds cascades down through the woods. The residence can be divided into three branches, those of a U shape. There is the dwelling, an East wing and a North wing, with a total living area of around 800sqm. The three-storey dwelling comprises two main buildings linked by an entrance porch. Its south-facing facade is flanked on the west by a round tower and a square, projecting tower. The staircase tower to the north is integrated into the facade. There are a total of 10 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. The main outbuilding is a dwelling known as The Petite grange with living room, kitchen, 3 bedrooms and bathroom. The second outbuilding is the swimming pool area with a 10 x 5 m pool, heated and treated by electrolysis (salt) as well as a large pool house with shower and wc. Other small roofs complete the outbuildings: a bread oven, located between the swimming pool and the dwelling, and a garden shed, built on the edge of the pond. The grounds cover an area of around 7 acres (2.85 hectares).
I am completely smitten with this chateau, particularly the layout and how pretty it looks from above, with the courtyard and it’s stonework. The interior is loaded with character too. For sale for €1,650,000 via Cabinet Le Nail.

In the historic center of Béziers, exceptional listed private hotel developing more than 900m² on 3 levels. With its origins in the 16th century, the building was then remodeled and enlarged several times until the end of the 19th century and includes many remarkable architectural elements and ornamentation. The ground floor accommodates large reception rooms opening onto the interior courtyard. The 2 upper levels are made up of several suites and apartments. The covered terrace on the top floor offers an unobstructed view of the city’s rooftops. Large vaulted cellars. The whole is in good condition. However, work is necessary to restore this place to all its splendor. This private hotel would be perfect for a high-end tourism project, the creation of a luxurious apartment or the installation of liberal professions or mixed use. 10 minutes walk from the station. Beaches and airport 20 minutes away.
It blows my mind that homes this beautiful actually exist. The architectural details of this one are beyond words. I can’t imagine having the honour to bring this spectacular property back to life. For sale for €1,290,000 via Kretz.

I honestly thought this was going to be an abandoned castle by the looks of the exterior. But alas it is not, and it is really charming on the inside! Maybe they could try some semi-gentle pressure washing? Regardless this is really cute and reasonably priced @ €748,000. For sale via Kretz.
