15c Château close to Chef-Boutonne in the Deux-Sèvres

€806,000

This 15c Château close to Chef-Boutonne in the Deux-Sèvres, Nouvelle Aquitaine has within its walls a manor house and outbuildings dating back to the 12th Century and has a tunnel linking it to nearby Chef-Boutonne which is over 1000 years old.
In the late 18th century, it was owned by the Fleury-Michon family as a country retreat.
It is now the home of a very special person with a love of horses; together with a passion for the hospitality business and boasts 5 en-suite bedrooms and an indoor pool and gym area. A recently refurbished restaurant and kitchen and a purpose-built chocolatier sealed room. The owner also has a gîte; which can be rented, together with stables and barns, all of which could be repurposed and grounds with tennis court and a meadow, all this is enclosed by its ancient walls.
The current owner has owned the property for 22 years and whilst doing her best to keep as many original features as possible; including the ongoing refurbishment of the manor house; next to the Château she has also created a very good multi-purpose hospitality business; which could be easily expanded, she would now like to pass the continuation of this onto someone who will appreciate the history of these buildings.
