Saint-Laurent-de-Cerdans, Languedoc-Roussillon 66260

Château de lIlle Saint-Laurent-de-Cerdans Built in 1890 and completely renovated in 2025, Château de lIlle is an exceptional property located in Saint-Laurent-de-Cerdans, in the heart of the Vallespir region of the Pyrénées-Orientales. With approximately 1,000 m² of living space, the estate is organized around the main château, two annexes, a caretaker's house, and a vast landscaped park. Together, they form a rare property, simultaneously a heritage residence and a haven for high-end hospitality. The main château forms the elegant heart of the property. On the ground floor, it houses the living and reception rooms, including two lounges, a dining room, and an open-plan kitchen, all designed for entertaining in an elegant and welcoming setting. The first floor is entirely dedicated to workspaces, meeting rooms, and offices, offering an ideal environment for seminars, professional retreats, creative residencies, or coworking sessions. The second floor houses four suites, in a more intimate and residential atmosphere. In the basement, technical areas, storage spaces, and a wine cellar complete the building's functional spaces. The renovation was extensive: the buildings were completely refurbished, modernized, and adapted for contemporary use, while preserving certain majestic period features that give the place its unique character, including the original floors, some of the woodwork, the ceiling moldings, and the fireplaces in every room of the château. Comfort was also a priority throughout the property, with electric radiators and towel warmers installed in the various spaces, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The right-hand annex extends the spirit of the estate with additional accommodation and a former chapel converted into a wine bar. This unique venue, both intimate and spectacular, offers an ideal setting for tastings, convivial gatherings, private parties, or confidential events. The left-hand annex further expands the estate's accommodation capacity. Together, the two annexes house 12 bedrooms and suites, comfortably accommodating families, guests, management teams, or groups. The annex buildings have undergone a complete renovation: zinc roofs, double-glazed aluminum windows, new floors using antique cement tiles, rock wool insulation in the exterior walls, and plasterboard lining. This renovation combines performance, comfort, and respect for the spirit of the place. At the entrance to the property, a caretaker's house completes the site's layout and offers the possibility of independent accommodation for security, operations, reception, or the daily maintenance of the estate. Outside, the Château de lIlle opens onto a park of approximately 3 hectares, a verdant haven surrounding the buildings. The estate also includes a tennis court, planters filled with medicinal herbs, a vegetable garden, and a spring, reinforcing the feeling of a living, self-sufficient place connected to nature. Beyond the park, the property extends over approximately 41 hectares of forest, offering an exceptional natural setting, rare privacy, and total immersion in a preserved environment. The property is connected to the mains water, electricity, and sewage systems, an essential advantage for an estate of this size. The Château de lIlle is neither listed nor classified as a historical monument, which allows for greater freedom of use and development than a protected property, while still preserving its significant heritage value. Subject to administrative approvals and applicable planning regulations, the property also offers potential for hotel, aparthotel, event, or high-end private stay development. Château de lIlle embodies a new vision of luxury: space, privacy, nature, heritage, and the opportunity to create a unique haven, a crossroads of refined living, inspired work, and top-tier hospitality in the South of France. The property enjoys privileged access from Perpignan, approximately one hour away, and Barcelona, approximately two
