Situated just 35 minutes from Bordeaux, the château enjoys a privileged countryside setting within easy reach of international transport connections, renowned vineyards and local village amenities. The surrounding region is celebrated for its wine estates, rolling landscapes and exceptional quality of life, offering a perfect balance between rural tranquillity and accessibility.

Just 35 minutes from Bordeaux, this exceptional fortified château dating from the 15th century stands within a peaceful and beautifully preserved countryside setting, surrounded by approximately 12 hectares of land with panoramic views over the surrounding landscape.

Rich in history and architectural character, the estate immediately impresses with its commanding presence, authentic period features and rare atmosphere. The château is arranged around a charming U-shaped courtyard framed by two emblematic towers, creating a striking and harmonious ensemble that perfectly reflects the heritage of the property.

The south-facing residence offers approximately 650 sqm of living space filled with natural light and elegant proportions throughout. High ceilings ranging from three to three and a half metres enhance the grandeur of the principal rooms, while large windows frame beautiful views across the estate.

The château currently provides seven bedrooms, with the possibility of creating up to ten depending on future requirements. The reception areas include two dining rooms, a spacious sitting room, a billiard room and three offices, creating a flexible layout equally suited to private family living, entertaining or professional use.

Two kitchens and two bathrooms complete the existing accommodation, while the generous volumes throughout the property offer considerable scope for further enhancement and modernisation.

The left wing of the château includes additional office spaces together with an independent caretaker’s house of approximately 70 sqm.

Numerous outbuildings further enrich the estate, including a former tasting room and a traditional barrel store, reflecting the region’s deep connection to wine production and hospitality.

Particular care has been taken to preserve the château’s original towers and roof structures, maintaining the authenticity and architectural integrity of this remarkable historic property.

While some modernisation work would allow the estate to reach its full potential, the château already presents an extraordinary opportunity to create a prestigious private residence, luxury hospitality project or exceptional event venue.

Its scale, layout and setting make it particularly well suited for weddings, receptions, seminars and cultural events, subject to the necessary permissions.

Located within easy reach of local village amenities and Bordeaux’s extensive infrastructure, the estate combines complete tranquillity with excellent accessibility. There is also the possibility of acquiring additional adjoining land.

A rare and historically significant château estate offering remarkable potential in one of the most desirable regions of south-west France.
