Tarn: UNIQUE near Anglès, magnificent estate to renovate with château, outbuildings, lake and parkland
Near the charming village of Anglès and the famous Raviège lake, you will find this exceptional property. In fact, this estate is listed and quoted in historical works on the châteaux and manor houses of the Tarn. A splendid estate!
After complete renovation, it would be perfect for a project linked to hospitality, agrotourism or as a very large family home.
Well-hidden in the heart of the forest, with its 1.4 hectares of parkland and enhanced by the presence of a lake, in which the château is marvellously reflected, the château is both imposing, austere and mysterious. It has a powerful facade, brought to life by a play of volumes. It is divided into a central pavilion flanked by lower side wings, with 2 non-protruding towers.
There are also outbuildings and a caracter's cottage to the rear, and another dwelling to be restored.
Let's start our visit by taking the access road right through the heart of our beautiful forest massifs. Don't forget that we're in the Montagne Noire and in the Parc Naturel Régional du Haut Languedoc, so that sets the scene!
At the very end it reveals itself, mysterious and imposing, leaving us speechless and spellbound.
A real postcard and historical film setting! This estate has contributed to local history and is mentioned in numerous books.
All that's left is for its future owner to restore it to its former glory.
It's a major renovation project that needs to be planned and undertaken, but the result will be magical!
We arrived near the château, and the imposing façade was revealed. All the windows face south, overlooking the lake and forest!
We enter, and yes, we've suddenly gone back in time! A vast 18m2 hall welcomes us, and reveals a very beautiful staircase, all the architectural details are there, ashlar frames, French ceilings, monumental fireplaces... This hall leads to two wings, in the right-hand one, we discover a beautiful 36m2 lounge with fireplace and beautiful wood panelling on the wall, a shower room or hallway point to be renovated or redesigned.
Then the left wing houses a second lounge or dining room of 34 m2 with a fireplace; adjoining is a kitchen of 28m2 and its utility room, which in turn leads to a hallway used for storage.
Back in the entrance hall, we take the imposing staircase up to the first floor with its 16m2 landing and 3 bedrooms with generous volumes of between 29 and 40m2! Each bedroom has its own water inlets and old bathrooms or toilets that need to be completely refurbished.
Floor 2 also has a large landing leading to 4 additional bedrooms with just as much space!
We're looking at almost 400m2 of living space!
We now emerge and discover the large outbuildings, the layout of which is sure to find its place in your project. In fact, it's a huge bonus, a barn with a floor surface area of 70m2 and a ridge rising to a height of 8.7 m! The extension includes stables and sheds measuring 12m2 and 52m2 on the ground floor. These spaces are always sought-after and are part of our customers' search criteria.
Then there's the caretaker's cottage, with openings on the south side like those in the château, but with a rear entrance on the north side so as to be totally independent, which is a great feature!
This part of the property spans around 85m2, with a large living room with fireplace and kitchen on the ground floor (....) and 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and separate toilet on the first floor.
Finally, still at the rear, an old dwelling of approx. 100m2 is in need of complete renovation, providing another possibility for independent accommodation.
Now all we have to do is stroll through the park, walk around the lake and contemplate this idyllic setting with its majestic trees, a place of absolute peace!
If you're planning a major renovation project in a unique place with a soul, then look no further than this place!
