Full Description


Set in the heart of a picturesque riverside village, this elegant 18th-century property forms a principal residence within an historic château, offering 360 m² of refined living space filled with period charm and spectacular views over the Charente River.

Dating from around 1750, the property features soaring ceilings, light-filled reception rooms, original fireplaces, and intricate architectural details throughout. Positioned on an elevated plot, it enjoys a commanding outlook while being just a short walk from riverside restaurants, the château's grounds, and village amenities.

This half of the château has been fully separated, with its own private entrance, courtyard, garden, and generous interior layout that spans three levels. The ground floor opens into a sequence of elegant reception rooms and a traditional kitchen, with bedrooms and bathrooms spread across the upper floors — ideal for family living or hospitality use.

A real standout feature is the vast vaulted cellar beneath the building — a dramatic and atmospheric space with potential to create a wine cellar, tasting room, gallery, or event venue. A vast loft space could also be converted to provide further accommodation

The easily maintained garden includes mature trees and charming stone outbuildings. With further potential to develop guest suites or self-contained rental units, the property lends itself beautifully to those seeking a main residence with income potential, or a prestigious holiday retreat.

Located just 10 minutes from the historic town of Saintes — known for its Roman ruins, vibrant market life, and excellent services — this is a rare opportunity to own part of a storied château in one of Charente-Maritime's most desirable settings.
