Chateau in Voulon

An exceptional historic estate on the banks of a river – a château and outbuildings set in 9 hectares of grounds

In the heart of the Sud-Vienne region, just forty minutes from Poitiers and its TGV station, this remarkable estate offers a rare opportunity to acquire a genuine piece of history in a preserved natural setting.

A long private driveway leads to a majestic entrance porch listed as a Historic Monument. As soon as you step through this centuries-old gateway, time seems to stand still. A vast courtyard, surrounded by characterful buildings, gradually reveals the soul of this unique place, shaped over the centuries from the 14th to the 19th century.

Overlooking its grounds, the château offers approximately 500 m² of living space. Behind its facades steeped in history, numerous original features remain, bearing witness to its authenticity: monumental fireplaces, antique terracotta tiles, stone floor slabs, parquet flooring, wooden staircases and towers integrated into the architecture. The reception rooms offer generous proportions and a warm atmosphere, whilst the upper floors retain the unspoilt charm of the family homes of yesteryear.

Surrounding the château is a particularly harmonious complex comprising a detached house, a spacious holiday cottage that can accommodate up to fourteen people, a tack room, horse stalls, a beautiful barn, a dovecote and several outbuildings, some of which still offer significant potential for conversion or restoration.

The holiday cottage, which is in good overall condition, is a valuable asset, offering the opportunity to immediately set up a revenue-generating accommodation business.

Outside, the estate covers over 9 hectares comprising meadows, a former orchard, wooded hillsides and natural areas bordered by the river. The views over the surrounding countryside, the presence of water and the rich architectural heritage create a living environment of exceptional quality.

This property will require restoration and modernisation work to realise its full potential. It will appeal to heritage enthusiasts, those with plans for tourism, equestrian or events-related ventures, as well as anyone who dreams of breathing new life into a historic residence full of character.

An extraordinary place, where history, nature and architecture combine to form a whole of a rarity that is increasingly hard to find.
