Early 17th-century château set within a largely intact historic estate.

Located on the edge of a river, the property reflects the transition from medieval fortification to classical French residential architecture. A 15th-century keep remains from the original structure.

In the early 17th century, the medieval complex was transformed by a prominent Poitou family into an elegant H-shaped residence anticipating the Louis XIII style.

Behind restrained Renaissance façades with trompe-l’œil detailing, the interior is organized around a central grand staircase. Original features include French ceilings, stone and terracotta floors, and monumental fireplaces, later enriched in the 18th century with parquet floors and marble finishes.

The estate landscape is carefully structured with a former moat canal, tree-lined axes, formal Renaissance-inspired gardens, kitchen garden, orchard, and woodland. Outbuildings include a large orangery for receptions, stables, a former menagerie, and an impressive dovecote.

A rare and highly preserved historic estate offering an authentic architectural testimony spanning four centuries.
