Castle for sale in Availles-en-Chatellerault, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France

A late 19th-century chateau and its former farm, surrounded by grounds and 140 hectares of woods and pastureland, between Châtellerault and Poitiers. From a small road, a long drive, lined with plane trees, traverses the property’s farmland before reaching the chateau and its enclosed grounds. Although the impressive edifice only dates back to the late 19th century, the estate itself has been occupied since the Middle Ages.

With plaster-coated exteriors cadenced by arched windows on the ground floor and rectangular ones upstairs, all surrounded by ashlar stone, its jagged two or three-sided slate rooftops are punctuated by dormer windows, while a farm with outbuildings and two small dwellings are located behind the chateau. Last, but not least, fields surround the chateau on all sides and woods seal off the property to the north.
