Sixteenth-century château in 2 hectares of parkland for sale in the Gard Cévennes

Beautiful castle for sale in the Gard.
This magnificent, fully renovated château is in immediate proximity to a village with shops about 30 minutes from Alès. Located on the Robert Louis Stevenson Trail, it occupies a moderately commanding position and is surrounded by around 2.4 hectares of protective parkland. The château
consists of a house flanked by three round towers which lend it its air of grandeur. The liveable floor area is approximately 600 sqm. A caretaker’s lodge and a circa 120 sqm outbuilding are nearby. The ground floor comprises several generously sized living areas including a room that contains a
monumental fireplace and opens onto a majestic circa 150 sqm terrace overlooking the grounds. At the end of this room is an elegant double-helix staircase leading to the park. Opposite, a cherub- adorned fountain in dressed stone accentuates the romantic spirit of the place. A very beautiful pool
area with circa 16×6 metre swimming pool, pool house and washroom blends in perfectly with the surroundings.
The two upper floors are reached via a spiral staircase; on each level there are three sizable, charming and elegant suites, as well as an apartment with a separate entrance. A very large attic room is used as a games room, but could be repurposed. The whole property is comfortable and can accommodate 20 people if you have letting or hospitality in mind. The château is heated throughout. An architectural gem in an oasis of greenery. This property has been selected and is for sale by our Uzès estate agency.
