Description

Situated between Issoudun and Châteauroux, this former fortified castle dating from the 9th and 10th centuries was saved in extremis from an advanced state of disrepair by its current owner.
A witness to French history, of which only around 400 sqm of the original building remains today, the castle comprises part of the main building and its staircase tower. It was remodeled in the 15th and 19th centuries. The current owner has re-roofed and consolidated the castle. As a result, the castle has regained much of its former splendor.
The courtyard is occupied by a former farmhouse that has been converted and renovated into a 100 sqm dwelling house and a 60 sqm apartment. The park features a pond, orchard and vegetable garden. It is surrounded on one side by a river, and on the other by a diversion from it.
Although the main structure is in good condition, restoration work is still required, particularly inside the castle. However, with its unique architecture, magnificent setting and privileged location, the castle presents a rare and unique opportunity for any buyer wishing to own a historic property and restore it with care. The potential of this château is exceptional and its charm unparalleled.

The castle:
The castle is a tall stone structure built in a very open V-shape, with a half-erected tower in the center of the courtyard façade, housing a spiral staircase leading to the various levels.
On the courtyard side, the main facade (facing west) of the dwelling features three storeys in elevation, heightened by the basement.
Access from this side is at mid-level, at the foot of the tower, via a double staircase and a door rebuilt in the neoclassical style in the early 19th century.
On the garden side, access is via another double staircase on the terrace, which is itself reached by a ten-step stone staircase.
The tower has been truncated and lost its conical roof.
Garden level (basement):
The former kitchens (46 sqm) still house an imposing Gothic fireplace and some fine antique features.
The cellar continues
First level:
A vast 65 sqm room with its fireplace, en suite, a room, two toilets and a kitchen.
Second level:

Third level:

A living room opening onto a kitchenette and a utility room.
