Stunning 19th Century chateau, renovated with care and charm

House - Chantonnay

The Château de Puybelliard was built in 1856 for the family Querqui in the style of the Chateau Confort, so always a family home and never a defensive stronghold. This means the house was designed for the comfort of an extended family with several generations living together as was typical in the grand families of France. Thus within the Chateau, you will find the beautiful corniced high ceilings typical of the era. This is a Chateau built for comfort with each room created with a function in mind, meaning the whole building flows with no redundant spaces or abandoned rooms but offering you a myriad of different spaces to enjoy and spread out in comfort. Outside is an amazing orangerie. Also a stone coach house opposite the chateau and old kennels in the wooded area of the extensive garden. Located in the historic village of Puybelliard just a short drive from the town of Chantonnay for all your shopping needs, bars, restaurants etc. On entering the chateau, there is an amazing entrance hall featuring marble columns and stucco walls. The grand dining room has a fireplace and wooden panel walls, this leads into the private dining room decorated in gold and black.
