Description

This magnificent property boasts superior craftsmanship with wooden joinery and double glazing throughout. Featuring De Dietrich oil central heating, wood burning stoves, and a thermodynamic water heater, this residence offers a blend of traditional charm and modern amenities for a truly luxurious living experience.

Steeped in history, the courtyard provides access to all buildings on the estate, including the original dog kennels, emblematic of its prestigious past as a hunting lodge for the Earl of Argoules.

The main house is a vision of elegance, with a generously sized terrace (33m²) overlooking enchanting garden vistas and the idyllic countryside. Additionally, two well-appointed w/c's off the terrace add convenience and comfort to outdoor entertainment. The living room (42.67m²) features a Vermont enamel fireplace, while the spacious dine-in kitchen (39m²) with a double aspect is perfect for culinary enthusiasts.

Enhancing the aura of sophistication, the dining room (17.90m²) showcases French double doors leading to both the kitchen and living room. The grand entrance (17m²), formerly a dovecote, boasts a sweeping staircase connecting various levels, including a serene library (10.40m²), charming loft room (16.76m²), and distinguished landings. The second level offers 2 bedrooms with ensuites, a mesmerizing master suite with a bath, shower room (w/c), and a convenient dressing room. The master bedroom (29.65m²) shines with a delightful double aspect, creating a serene retreat.

In the former coachhouse and theater, discover a delightful mezzanine office, gym room, laundry room, workshop, and spacious store rooms, including a bonus basement room with water connection and garden access. The basement of the tower adds allure and functionality to this remarkable property.

The gites are a blend of historical charm and modern comfort, featuring a bedroom, w/c, bathroom, large kitchen, and a living room with traces of their humble past. The upstairs reveals the former groom's quarters, now a bright summer room with access to a charming terrace. Three additional bedrooms offer enchanting views of the village and the majestic Tilleul tree, over 400 years old!

The stable, with four rooms on the ground floor and two on the first floor, is primed for transformation into a second gite, complete with water connections and ample potential for creative conversion.

This extraordinary estate exudes a captivating mix of historical allure and contemporary coziness, ideal for those seeking a unique and enchanting living experience.
