A winding private drive leads through the woods to this stunning property. The main building has elements dating from the 17th century and has a striking profile with its distinctive tower and ivy clad facade. A granite staircase leads from the front door to four floors that offer spacious living areas, including a long ballroom measuring 95 square metres, a dining room with an impressive open fireplace and a cosy living room with bookcases reaching to the ceiling. A compact kitchen adjoins a good-sized dining room perfect for family meals or smaller groups. On the lower level another generous kitchen opens onto the rear garden with views of the river and surrounding forests. There are five bedrooms, one boasting its own sauna, four bathrooms, a library or study and an office. This stunning property has plenty of space but could easily be divided up depending upon the future owners needs.
An independent house sits around 300m from the main complex and has two bedrooms, two generous living spaces, a private terrace, two bathrooms and a kitchen. This secluded spot would be perfect to use as a gîte without disturbing the main house or for staff accommodation with privacy and its own garden.
A second house that sits across the lawn from the chateau offers an open living area with a mezzanine that could serve as a bedroom, a second bedroom, bathroom and its own kitchen. A sunny stone terrace to the front of the property is the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or late afternoon drink. On the lower level there is an independent studio with its own entrance which could be ideal for rentals or a family member who wanted their own space.
A third house with a bedroom and shower is attached to the large barn which has plenty of space for storage or could be adapted to host events. The beautiful arched ceiling and impressive beams add a real sense of grandeur to this space.
Below the two houses is an agricultural hanger, with farming equipment included in the sale. A stable block provides space for horses, and additional outbuildings offer plenty of choice for whatever your business requires.
The setting of the property is perfect with the river meandering past the rear of the chateau, established trees dotting the grounds, lawns, hedges and walled gardens all waiting to be explored. The woods and land surrounding the property are covered with tracks and paths to discover and the nearest neighbour is almost a kilometre away. Rural tranquility is guaranteed.
The domaine is only a five-minute drive from the pretty town of Brassac which has restaurants and shops as well as a school. The larger town of Castres with all necessary amenities is 25 minutes away. Toulouse and Carcassonne can be reached in under 1 hour 30 minutes. The area has plenty of opportunities for walking, cycling and enjoying the peace and quiet of the countryside. If you are looking for a slice of French life, to start a new adventure then this could be the place for you.
