Nestling in nearly 5 acres of glorious landscaped gardens is this beautifully renovated 9 bedroom South facing French Chateau with separate one bedroom apartment and outbuildings, ideally located in a peaceful area near all amenities in Blaye.

This elegant property was built around 1750 and overlooks its own garden with mature trees, and is just a short drive from the cosmopolitan city of Bordeaux.

The central entrance hall is light and spacious and leads directly through to the rear entrance with steps down to the rear garden. The principal living and dining rooms have tall ceilings and large windows. There are magnificent original features throughout, including marble fireplaces, plaster relief mouldings, and the original polished hardwood floors.

The internal layout is quite flexible and could easily be restructured to accommodate different needs. The chateau has been stylishly renovated and these works have included a complete new roof.

The lower level of the building has recently been completely restyled with a travertine floor throughout, a new kitchen also in travertine and a fabulous new bathroom with copper roll top bath, copper double sinks and a huge walk in shower.

A completely independent apartment has also been created on this floor with a large living room with kitchen area, a bedroom and en suite shower room, it also has its own garden area.

The additional outbuildings, include a complete separate house to renovate and a pretty pigeonnier both recently re-roofed.

The property sits on the edge of a small but lively village, with shops, and is ideally situated for access to Bordeaux with international airport and high speed (TGV) rail links to the UK and mainland Europe.

This is a ‘must see’ property.
