Réf. 4419 : Elegant 17th century ISMH château for sale near Saintes.
Located in the Charente-Maritime department, just 10 minutes from the town of Saintes. The region is renowned for its architectural heritage, vineyards and lush green valleys, offering a peaceful, bucolic setting.
The Charente-Maritime department, bordering the Atlantic Ocean, is famous for its seaside resorts and islands, such as Ile de Ré and Ile d'Oléron. Close to shops, with quick access to Saintes train station and the motorway.
Over the centuries, the château has seen many changes, passing through the hands of various local noble families such as Pierre Sené, the château's first owner and Seigneur de la Fourest. The famous novelist Jules Mary, Officer of the Legion of Honour, was a frequent visitor. Its architecture and layout have probably changed over time, reflecting the tastes and needs of successive owners.
Situated in the heart of the Charente-Maritime region, this château stands elegantly in the middle of a verdant setting, surrounded by pretty gardens with trees over a hundred years old, listed in the pre-inventory of remarkable gardens in 2003.
After being remodelled in the early 20th century, the building retains all the charm of its era.
