Creuse - Stunning 20 Hectare Chateau Country Estate, with River and 2 Luxurious Treehouses.

Property Description

Nestled in the enchanting countryside of the Creuse-Limousin, just a stone's throw from the picturesque village of Chavanat, lies a truly extraordinary estate spanning an impressive 20 hectares, all bordered by a peaceful river. This remarkable property features a stunning bourgeois-style château, a spacious farmhouse, a comfortable caretaker's house, numerous versatile outbuildings, and one truly unique addition: two luxurious treehouses that provide a delightful draw for tourists. From the moment you pass through the gates and drive along the beautifully lined avenue, the beauty and charm of this estate will captivate you.
The château is a splendid 373 m² residence that combines comfort with elegant design, boasting refined granite fireplaces and a sunny veranda that invites warmth and light. The ground floor welcomes you with a grand entrance hall featuring a fireplace, a cozy living room with a wood stove for cooler evenings, a kitchen blending modern comfort with traditional aesthetics, a dining room with a pellet stove, a superb veranda, a WC, and easy access to the refined vaulted cellars. On the first floor, you will find two spacious bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, along with a well-appointed office space. The second floor continues to impress with two further en-suite bedrooms, as well as three charming additional guest rooms.
The adjoining 177 m² farmhouse, fully renovated with style, offers delightful living spaces. The ground floor includes a welcoming living room with a lovely cream enamel wood stove, a fully fitted kitchen-dining area perfect for gatherings, a practical pantry, and a laundry room with WC. The first floor offers three generously sized double bedrooms, a welcoming office, and two independent family bathrooms. The second floor, currently used as a workshop and art studio, offers the potential to be easily transformed into two additional bedrooms.
Both main houses benefit from central heating: the château is equipped with a new wood-fired boiler, while the farmhouse has a new oil-fired boiler. The estate also includes three large barns, one of which has been cleverly converted into stables, while a charming caretaker's cottage currently serves as a reception and laundry space, with a cozy living room, functional kitchen, utility room, and a large upstairs room that could easily be converted into a picturesque one-bedroom cottage.
At the rear of the property, you will discover two luxury treehouses offering breathtaking views over the unspoiled countryside. These treehouses are expected to generate an impressive euros100,000 in income this year, following the introduction of the second unit late last year. They are highly sought after and receive glowing reviews from delighted guests across various booking platforms. Each treehouse is equipped with luxurious amenities, including a hot tub, reversible heating system, and independent waste management, ensuring visitors enjoy an unforgettable experience.
Spanning just over 20 hectares, the estate blends seamlessly into its natural environment. The land is wisely used for horse and rare-breed animal grazing and includes a series of paddocks and farm buildings. Passionate about permaculture, the owners have cultivated a thriving orchard and a large polytunnel for their own produce. Adding to its magic, the property also boasts its own grotto, nestled among mature trees, as well as a private stretch of river with waterfalls, natural pools, and sandy beaches?all in a serene setting teeming with wildlife. For astronomy enthusiasts, the on-site observatory provides the perfect spot to explore the night sky free from city lights.
