Monflanquin, Aquitaine 47150

Exclusive To Beaux Villages! Built in the 13th century on an ancient Roman road, this castle steeped in history could according to legend, house the Templars treasure. Restored in 1810 by a Bonapartist owner, it is distinguished by its décor, stucco work and effigies celebrating Napoleon I, which has earned it its listing as a Historic Monument and the associated benefits. Completely renovated in 2000 to operate as a bed and breakfast and holiday accommodation, this intimate château offers 4 family suites with en-suite bathrooms, 2 bright bedrooms with shower rooms, as well as a converted attic comprising 3 bedrooms, a bathroom and a toilet, with potential for further extension. The living areas feature three elegant reception rooms, a large, bright, fully equipped kitchen with a fireplace, and a spacious utility room serving as a laundry and boiler room. The property sits atop beautiful, fully restored vaulted cellars. The estate extends over grounds of more than 2 hectares planted with 200-year-old trees, featuring a 19th-century family chapel 100 metres away, surrounded by majestic cedars. The outbuildings include a 250 m² barn with horse stalls. There are also other outbuildings and parts of the château that could be converted and restored (subject to the necessary permissions). A private, secure swimming pool, sheltered from view, and a shaded inner courtyard complete the property. This rare property offers a wide range of possibilities, whether as a family home, a tourist business or for creating a charming hotel complex, and represents a unique opportunity.
