Magnificent Château Overlooking Lake Sainte-Croix

Property Description

Overlooking Lake Sainte-Croix, in the heart of the spectacular Verdon Gorge region, stands a remarkably elegant 17th-century château. Rich in history and authenticity, this exceptional estate embodies the refinement of classical French architecture within an unspoiled natural setting.

Offering more than 1,000 sq m of living space, complemented by an independent apartment of approximately 200 sq m, the property is set within a private 15-hectare estate. Distinguished by its four glazed-tile towers, private chapel, vaulted wine cellar, and numerous other remarkable architectural features, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique historic residence.

The château includes:

A majestic entrance hall enhanced by a monumental staircase with its original wrought-iron balustrade.
A grand formal dining room adorned with gilded decorative plasterwork, a remarkable example of 17th-century French craftsmanship.
A bright reception lounge featuring an antique fireplace, ideal for entertaining and relaxation.
A spacious fully equipped kitchen designed for both large-scale receptions and everyday château living.
Approximately twenty elegant bedrooms offering understated luxury and refined comfort.

Outdoors, landscaped gardens, 4,000 vines, fountains, truffle oak groves, and a heated swimming pool create an atmosphere of serenity and well-being.

A certified helicopter landing area authorised for more than 200 annual movements, together with several outbuildings, offers outstanding potential for expansion, restoration, or large-scale hospitality projects. The estate is equally suited to use as a prestigious private residence or for the development of a luxury hotel or exclusive events venue.
