Château often rhymes with renovation. But not here. “No work required“says Jean-Luc Boizard, Safti’s real estate agent in charge of the sale of the property.a 20-bedroom château on 1400 square meters, located 30 minutes from Deauville (14) and 2 hours from Paris. The current owner has lived here for 23 years, and has constantly improved the château’s condition. The paintings are clean and the parquet flooring is in good condition. The 39-hectare gardens are very well maintained, with well-trimmed groves. “The owner has modernized the property while retaining the charm of yesteryear.“says the real estate agent.
The 15th-century château features a dovecote, hunting lodge and janitor’s cottage, as well as stables, guest house and neo-Gothic funeral chapel. A billiard room and sports hall will keep buyers entertained. The icing on the cake is an indoor swimming pool. The château has a total of 20 bedrooms.
Almost 4 million euros
Today, the owner wishes to sell his main residence, as the château has become too big for him. His many children have left the nest, and he wants to part with this high-maintenance property. “At his age, he’s downsizing“sums up Jean-Luc Boizard. All the more so as the owner has another, smaller chateau on a human scale. The owner has no particular requirements as to the profile of the buyer who will be interested in his property, but he is looking for someone who will be able to love this residence as he has loved it, and who will continue to maintain it with passion.
Someone who will have the means to acquire the property and ensure that it doesn’t fall into disrepair. The buyer could be a private individual or a major corporation looking to turn the property into a boutique hotel. Whatever his or her profile, the buyer will have to pay 3,870,000 euros to move into this prestigious château. “This castle magnificently preserved near Pont-l’Évêque and Deauville is a witness to the evolution of architectural styles and uses of châteaux in Normandy, from medieval fortress to classical noble residence, then to heritage and family space.“concludes the real estate agent.
