Close to Penne d'Agenais, Pujols and Monflanquin, some of the most beautiful villages in the South West, set in unspoilt countryside, this château embodies all the charm and prestige of France’s grand historic residences. Built around 1850 by Pierre Lodoïs de la Roche, this characterful château has remained in the same family for over 140 years. It was notably the residence of General de Barescut and his wife, the heiress to the estate, bearing witness to a rich and authentic history that gives the property a unique character. Now fully restored with remarkable care, the château has been restored to its former splendour. The elegance of its spacious rooms, the quality of its facilities and the refined décor create a warm and timeless atmosphere, where heritage and contemporary comfort blend harmoniously. The main house comprises seven magnificent en-suite bedrooms, an elegant lounge, a formal dining room, a spacious function room for events and receptions, and a breakfast room. The property is equally suited to use as a prestigious family home or for a boutique guesthouse or high-end events venue. The estate covers nearly five hectares of wooded grounds, a veritable haven of greenery offering peace, privacy and a gentle way of life. A swimming pool, perfectly integrated into its surroundings, completes this exceptional setting. Two separate outbuildings each house a one-bedroom apartment comprising a living room, a kitchen and a private terrace, offering comfortable accommodation for guests or clients seeking tranquillity. At the far end of the grounds, with its own access, a stone house of approximately 80 m² in need of restoration offers further potential for developing a holiday cottage, guest house or independent residence. Rare for its history, remarkable for the quality of its renovation and exceptional for its potential, this château is a truly exceptional property where the elegance of French heritage meets a refined lifestyle. A unique place, ready to write a new chapter in its history. Just a few minutes from Agen and its TGV station, in the heart of a region renowned for its relaxed way of life, this château represents a rare heritage opportunity on the market for historic French properties.
