Exclusive listing - Precious and refined gardens - ELEGANT 18TH-CENTURY CHATEAU SUPERBLY RESTORED - Authentic high-quality 18th-century decoration - Pyrenees - Bigorre - 1h30 from Biarritz and the Atlantic coast.
Restored with exquisite taste over the past 25 years by a passionate aesthete, this elegant 18th-century chateau with its symmetrical classical architecture is nestled within a precious and refined green setting of boxwood embroidery gardens, topiaries, a maze, and a green theatre at the foot of the Pyrenees, 1h30 from Biarritz and the sea.
Built around 1750, this elegant country residence has survived in a remarkable state of authenticity, retaining its original decorative elements: wooden floors, stone and terracotta tile floors, wood paneling, fireplaces, overmantels, wainscoting, and double doors. This balanced, human-scale architecture perfectly expresses the French art of country living in the 18th century, flooded with light from every side, with a reception ground floor composed of beautiful interconnected 18th-century salons.
The central “calade” pathway, typical of southern France, crosses the boxwood embroidery gardens and topiaries in a magical and refined atmosphere, leading to the grand staircase of the majestic central projection and then to the entrance hall with its highly authentic stone floor, opening in every direction onto sequences of salons bathed in light through large-paned windows with dual exposure. The grand dining room opens fully south toward the village facing the church, through a large staircase leading to a boxwood embroidery parterre separated from the village by a moat.
The interior of the chateau is typical of everything the French 18th century can offer in terms of refinement and art de vivre, particularly through the 5 beautiful interconnected salons adorned with their 18th-century décor, wide-plank wooden floors, terracotta tiles, fireplaces, overmantels, Versailles parquet flooring, woodwork, and paneled walls.
A dining room with wood paneling adjoining the kitchen, service staircase, and service corridor.
An 18th-century alcove bedroom.
A library with Empire-style woodwork.
A study decorated with richly painted faux-marble wood paneling.
2 WCs; one possible bathroom.
Grand staircase with an 18th-century carved wooden banister.
On the first floor, a large hall, 8 bedrooms, most decorated with magnificent hand-printed wallpapers of museum quality made by a renowned specialist, fireplaces, overmantels, and built-in wooden cupboards.
Two bathrooms, including one in marble with a beautiful early 20th-century marble and pitchpine vanity unit.
A large salon with a service staircase leading to the kitchen.
Large cellars, including a grand chateau kitchen in the basement.
The most remarkable outbuilding is the sumptuous monumental orangery with three south-facing arcades and particularly refined and spectacular architecture. The acroterion cornice supports four Louis XIV-style flame pots, giving this building exceptional elegance, as well as extraordinary comfort for enjoying the garden through the draped arcades beneath monumental ceiling heights.
A large barn converted into an event hall equipped with a stainless-steel kitchen.
A charming farmyard bordered by a henhouse and a shelter with particularly elegant wooden columns.
A discreet and authentic chapel beneath a blue vaulted ceiling painted with stars, terracotta tile flooring, and a remarkable 17th-century polychrome carved wooden altarpiece.
In a nearby building accessed by a calade pathway: the former kitchens, three beautiful rooms with terracotta floors, beams and fireplaces, and a large attic ready for conversion.
Two exterior WCs.
Enchanting boxwood gardens created 20 years ago of exceptional quality, with dreamlike viewpoints, composed in front of the chateau of particularly sophisticated and refined boxwood embroidery gardens and topiaries. On the village side, a terrace of embroidery gardens as well.
To the side, crossing a small bridge over the former moats sheltering a romantic streamside garden, the majestic semi-circular terraced green theatre unfolds around a water feature bordered with schist stone. Monumental yew pilasters rising above hornbeam and beech hedges lend an architectural grandeur to this landscaped folly.
A perspective lined with sculptures along hornbeam and beech hedges.
An extraordinary and rare green maze formed from beech hedges worthy of the greatest 18th-century chateaux.
This garden is an exceptional work of art, reflecting a rare mastery of the art and history of gardens in Europe; planted 20 years ago, it has now reached full maturity, offering exceptional beauty and atmosphere.
Swimming pool integrated into ornamental basins with marble coping stones.
Three entrances with large 18th-century pillars and gates.
A free parcel of land suitable for parking outside the park.
The chateau is fully listed as a Historic Monument.
Two wells, irrigation pump.
Oil-fired central heating in three-quarters of the chateau.
Annual property tax: 549 Euros.
