Description

Set in rolling countryside within the heart of the beautiful region of Vendée, known for its’ sunny microclimate and warmer winters, this is a simply stunning home steeped in history dating back to the 11th and 12th century. The Château spans some 1000 years of French history, including the periods of the Hundred years War and the residents of the Knights Templar. Many of the original features remain in place, including an 11th century impressive, vaulted cellar which was part of an ancient network of tunnels running between important houses in the area as documented in local history books. Extensive, high quality internal renovations have adapted this property to be a modern, comfortable and spacious family home with the benefits of modern day conveniences, such as superb bathrooms and an impressive kitchen, whilst at the same time retaining key features and character of the original house such as the wide stone staircase and original beautiful stone fireplaces, complete with a bread oven.

Spacious living, dining and office areas with five bedrooms and easy access to an additional 2 living areas and 3 bedrooms (with ensuite), make this property ideal for large or extended families. Entering its 7th year, the gite business (4*) provides an established good income for little effort. Carefully considered renovations offer this income to be increased dramatically as Chateau Le Retail provides itself uniquely to welcome large parties for large gatherings / weddings etc.

Double glazing, some with internal shutters, is in place within the property and the ground floor under-floor heating system is supplemented by two wood burning stoves. Wood-pellet Stoves are in place downstairs and within the master bedroom thus providing a variety of heating options to be used independently or alongside the oil fuelled central heating. Terraces surround the property and external buildings have significant potential for development such as additional gite/accommodation or stabling, subject to any consents that may be required.

Excellent professional standard equestrian facilities are in place, comprising 7 stables in all, including some internal stables, tack room and a wash down area. A 60 x 20m sport sand and fibre (with membrane and drainage) equestrian arena with cross country training facilities are within the paddocks, overall the total land and the woodlands extends to 4.26 Ha.
