A residence with through-rooms and original materials
Built in the early 19th century by a General of the Empire, the Château du Grès is centred around a 35 m² reception room opening onto the terraces and the park. Reception rooms, a dining room converted into a billiard room and a kitchen flow seamlessly into one another. The original flooring, including tomettes, terracotta tiles and encaustic cement tiles, sets the tone for an interior where authenticity has been carefully preserved. The first floor hosts three suites, one with a private terrace and one family suite with an anteroom. The second level offers four additional bedrooms and a bathroom, spaces still to be shaped according to future projects.
A landscaped park listed as heritage, with the banks of the Cèze as a backdrop
Behind the facades, the walled estate unfolds a carefully composed landscape : century-old trees listed as heritage, a well-tended bamboo grove and an orchard sloping down to the river. The golden light of the Gard, the living silence of cicadas, the gentleness of mornings on the terraces, all anchor this property in a deeply southern French art de vivre. The 200 m² orangery represents a rare volume for events or a hospitality project. The EPC indicates a surface area of 370 m², rated D (180 kWh/m²/an), GES D (35 kg CO2/m²/an).
Location and accessibility
The château is just a short walk from the village of Saint-Ambroix and its local amenities, 15 minutes from Barjac, 40 minutes from Uzès and 50 minutes from the Nîmes Pont du Gard TGV station. Whether as a large primary residence, a family home or a high-end tourist accommodation project, the layout of the spaces and the extent of the estate lend themselves to a variety of uses.
