Close to the bustling town of Pompadour, you will find this wonderful 14th century Château, said to have been given by Louis XV to his favourite mistress, Madame de Pompadour. It sits in a peaceful, private setting surrounded by 2.8 hectares of pasture and woodland.
An historic fortified château, it shows traces of occupation dating from the 11th century. The wing was probably updated around the 16th century. Stone-built, with original oak and chestnut timbering, it has been lovingly and authentically restored by master craftsmen to its former beauty, yet possesses all modern amenities. It has been successfully used as a comfortable, manageable family home (11 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms) but would work as a rental or function facility. The grenier (12mx8m) has been used for concerts and there is a sizeable galleried barn makes a sports/play area.
Nearby you will find a delightful 3-bedroom cottage, a swimming pool, a large poolroom, a bread-oven and two fishing lakes, stocked with carp.
