Castle with English Garden near Paris

French castle for sale with English garden in idyllic countryside. This charming castle, dating from 1636, is a French heritage site and covers an area of 1600 m².  Additional charm comes from the presence of a 12th century mill. The property extends over a generous 9 hectares and is crossed by a picturesque river.

The surrounding area is characterized by majestic, centuries-old trees and a variety of flora and fauna. There is an opportunity for fishing and the creation of a vegetable garden - a place of natural self-sufficiency and biodiversity. The castle itself has been extensively renovated, although some final works are still pending. It is gratifying to note that many of these tasks are being funded by the state.

With a former owner, the cousin of a French king, this chateau opens doors to a remarkable history. A highly advantageous location - just two hours from Paris and one hour from the airport - underscores this property's prime position. Craftsmanship by local artists has shaped the existing guest rooms, and they lovingly embody traditional manufacturing skills.

Not only a historic site, but also a potential lodging business, the current mill wheel provides electricity for the castle. If needed, this can be replaced with a more powerful alternative to not only meet energy needs, but even generate surplus. This castle represents a rare opportunity to own and create history.
