Overview
Step into a world where time moves with the grace of a waltz and the air hums with the quiet prestige of centuries past. Here, on the sun-drenched outskirts of Tours—where the Loire’s fabled valleys cradle history like a cherished secret—stands a neo-classical *château* of breathtaking poise, its symmetrical façades a testament to the 19th century’s love of harmony and grandeur.
The estate unfolds like a living painting, its 14.82 acres (6 hectares) of private parkland a symphony of nature’s most refined notes. Ancient specimen trees, their gnarled branches whispering tales of generations, stand sentinel over manicured ornamental bushes that blush with seasonal color. At the heart of this verdant sanctuary lies a mirror-still pond, its glassy surface cradling a secluded island—a place where one might imagine stealing away with a beloved novel or a flask of fine *Sancerre*, lost in the dappled light of a Loire afternoon.

This is no mere residence; it is a legacy etched in stone and soil, a retreat where the vibrancy of village life brushes gently against the hush of rural seclusion. The *château* itself, a masterpiece of neo-classical restraint, offers spaces designed not just for living, but for savoring: grand reception rooms where candlelight might dance across gilded moldings during soirées lingered over until dawn, and private chambers where morning sun spills through tall windows, gilding the quiet luxury of waking without haste.
Here, in the Centre-Val de Loire—a region synonymous with kings and courtiers, with vineyards that yield the world’s most coveted wines—this estate is more than a home. It is an invitation to write your own chapter in a land where beauty is not just seen, but *felt*. The air carries the scent of wild roses and damp earth after a summer rain; the evenings dissolve into a chorus of crickets, punctuated by the distant chime of a village clock. Every detail, from the precision of the architectural lines to the untamed elegance of the grounds, speaks of a life lived with intention, where heritage and modernity entwine like ivy on ancient stone.

For those who seek not just a property, but a *provenance*—a place where the soul may expand as freely as the estate’s rolling acres—this *château* awaits. It is a rare jewel, priced at €2,430,000 ($2,853,207), where the art of living is not just preserved, but perfected. Come, let the Loire’s golden light guide you home.
