MY THOUGHTS
This stunning château wing for sale in the heart of Sologne has stolen my heart! It’s everything you’d want in a piece of French architectural history: the charm of château living with none of the overwhelming burden of managing a vast estate. Picture this—a private garden to unwind, historic rooms filled with light, and every detail brimming with stories.

THE CHATEAU
Nestled in Sologne, just 1h50 from Paris, this remarkable wing of a 17th-century château is the perfect blend of elegance, history, and modern comfort. Built in 1604, this historic château has it all—soaring ceilings, original tiles, stunning moldings, and magnificent fireplaces. The 551 sqm living space includes bright galleries, a Provençal-style kitchen, oak-beamed attic rooms, and so much more. Every corner is packed with authentic French charm.

Outside, the private garden spans over 6,700 sqm, complete with elegant terraces, period greenhouses, and even a 15-metre pool to enjoy during the summer. Beyond, the 23-hectare shared park offers wooded paths, a serene pond, and beautifully maintained grounds that provide all the space without the upkeep. This Sologne château property offers versatility: a main or secondary residence, or even a rental investment with potential seasonal income of €40,000.

MY THOUGHTS
Oh, the allure of this château! 🏰 The proportions are perfect, with a certain gravitas that whispers *Dick and Angel’s magical haven* – but this one, oh, this one is fully restored and stunning in every sense! The turrets stand tall and proud, brimming with character, and the interior? A warm embrace of history and charm, beautifully preserved yet inviting. And that walled garden... can you spot it? It’s giving all the *swoon-worthy* feels

THE CHATEAU
This Neo-Renaissance château, perched gracefully on a spur above the Cher valley, is nothing short of breathtaking. Built in the late 19th century, its design is a celebration of elegance and detail. The façade is adorned with arched twinned windows, intricate pinnacles, and pepperpot turrets – an architectural dance of strength and whimsy. Inside, parquet flooring, wood panelling, and marble fireplaces whisper tales of grandeur, while modern touches like the updated slate roof and a fully restored caretaker’s house ensure practicality.

Surrounding the château, the estate unfurls across nearly 14 hectares of meadows, century-old trees, and even a romantic ruin – the vestiges of a bygone castle. From its secluded walled vegetable garden to its playful dovecote and workshops brimming with potential, this property feels like a treasure trove waiting for its next chapter. 🌳✨

MY THOUGHTS
I’m completely captivated by the balcony staircase – it’s like something out of a fairytale, delicate yet bold, with a touch of old-world glamour. The dovecote – oh, the dovecote! I could see myself lying there, daydreaming of times past, imagining a life less ordinary, and soaking in the beauty of it all. 🌿✨

THE CHATEAU
Nestled in the heart of a charming village, this early 16th and 19th-century gem exudes elegance and character from every angle. Its architectural splendour is undeniable: from the stately façade to the original woodwork and period fireplaces, every detail speaks of timeless sophistication. 18 hectares of land, numerous outbuildings, a chapel, stables, an impressive dovecote and a caretakers house.

Walking into this French château was a delightful surprise. I mean, I was not expecting the interior to be such a jaw-dropping spectacle! The details inside are just beautiful—classic and delicate vibes everywhere. And can we talk about those fireplaces and parquet floors? Absolute stunners. If it were up to me, I’d practically set up camp in the salon. Those architectural mouldings are like instant therapy; I can picture myself just chilling with my feet up by the fire, and housework? Yeah, that’s definitely taking a backseat!

Location Normandy

Now, onto the nitty-gritty from the agent: Picture this 1860 French château perched on a hill, flaunting killer views of Normandy’s countryside. It’s a legit masterpiece with 750 m² spread over 3 floors and a basement—12 rooms decked out with fancy stuff like parquet floors and fireplaces. The entrance is all majestic, leading to reception rooms with a view of a 1.6-hectare park surrounded by an ancient stone wall. Plus, it’s a sweet spot, just 2.33 hours by train or 3.45 hours by car from Paris. Perfect if you’re into escaping to the countryside or need a rad mix of history and modern living.

RENOVATED & UNDER €1M……picked out by my secret idol Shannon with 3,390 sq ft and built in 1840 (which was four year after our former Chateau La Perriere was built!). Renovated in 2004, and boy you can tell, the facade and the garden looks immaculate from the photos. I LOVE a property which has already had a vast amount of investment done, it means you don’t have to……whoop whoop! All whilst having a respect for the original architectural features.

My VIEW
Karen
Renovating abroad isn’t for everyone. It can be tricky to navigate, especially if you are not fluent at the language. Therefore, there are many properties like this where someone else has done the hard work.

If you are a fixer upper type person, times have become easier with the likes of instagram and Facebook, giving you the ability to connect with other English people and trades. However, I can’t emphasise enough the importance to use local trades people. That doesn’t mean we never used English people, but for the most part we used local artisans. This helped us to built relationships with the locals, which in turn help to support us in the long run.

DREAM CHATEAU……and I mean dreeeeeaaaaam chateau. I’m already there walking or should I say floating down the stairs. I’m finding it difficult to know where I’d spend my days? Would it be the incredible dining room with the gorgeous panels, or the stunningly elegant entrance hall or simply laying on the lawn admiring the incredible brick architecture. Everything is so meticulous it is impossible to choose, where would you be?

My VIEW
Karen
Did you know the annual tax d’habitation is being abolished for main residence? Which means watch out second home owners you may still have to pay it……. Nobody quite knows what if any will replace it. When we know we will let you know.

Annual Taxes in France can range depending on the commune your property is in. So be sure to ask the agent how much the annual taxes are on the property your interested in.

MAISON BOURGEOISE……in a picturesque village only 15 minutes from Narbonne. One of my personal favourites, a beautiful city, full of architecture and all centred along a fabulous canal. A superb masters house from the Napoleon III period, potential for a bed and breakfast. Renovated respecting the old materials and architectural details. In addition there is the possibility of purchasing an old chai (garage) 200m2 with garden. Wahoo, always nice to have options.

My VIEW
Karen
Following on from Ruth Woods article in Complete France “Rise of the mini chateau: petite prestige homes are all the rage in France right now”. The homely chateaux are proving very popular and don’t stay on the market for long. Being in the countryside is a huge attraction but with close links the city’s. The most popular budget is €500k-€800k, and the interesting part is, the French are now wanting a slice of the action.

ULTIMATE CHATEAU……some chateaux just have it all and priced at €1,750,000 this is remarkable value. Located in central France, the land of chateaux, built in the 15th Century on the site of a 13th Century chateau. There is so much to swoon over. We all drool over a moat, ommittedly perhaps not all of us want one, but there is no doubt this is a dream chateau. It even has 3 spiral staircases leading to the upper floors, an annex house, renovated house and wait for it…..an orangery, which I know we all love.

My VIEW
Karen
The property here is not enclosed, which has a bonus, no need for maintenance of walls and fences. With 27 hectares it is a substantial plot of land, so you’ll need some serious machinery. Don’t be afraid to ask if the machinery and equipment can be included in the sale…..don’t ask, you don’t get.

BIJOUX PERFECTION……for €460,000 45 minutes from Avignon, tucked away in a peaceful village near the town of Uzes. Renovated beautifully, retaining all its features (tick). My kind of heaven, the perfect getaway, lock up and go, a place to enjoy a good book!

My VIEW
Karen
Many of you who have made the leap or are in the process of making the leap, have found the process of buying a property to be a little lengthy. Although it isn’t uncommon, especially with old properties and possibility with the increase of foreign investors, the notaries wish to make sure all the boxes are ticked and everyones interests are protected. The time it takes will soon wash away when you have the keys in your hands, then it will just be another story to tell. We spent years saying “do you remember when…….” Wishing you all the best of luck on your journey.

SO MUCH CHATEAU……for €625,400, how is that even possible? Ok, so there isn’t much land, but to be honest this can actually be a benefit, especially if you’re not looking for a huge amount of maintenance. Also this chateau is complete and has been renovated, so the deal is even better, and they’ve kept a lot of character in situ.

I hope none of you have been effected by the challenges Eurotunnel have faced over the last few days. Eurotunnel is generally our favoured choice of transport, but on occasions, especially if I’ve been travelling on my own as a single driver, I’ve opted for the boat to reduce the driving hours. What is your favourite choice and why?

NEAR CARCASSONE……a characterful property on 3 hectares of land….so as I’ve said many time before, a nice easy manageable amount. Inclusive of 3 other maisons, a barn and numerous other buildings, so plenty of scope. Currently it is equipped with a professional kitchen, and has a huge amount of living space at 680m2, and it is near Carcassonne so you get the best of both worlds.

My VIEW
Karen
Carcassonne is such a beautiful part of France. We arrived on Saturday, passing through the medieval city and it is a city of two parts, the new town and the city of Carcassonne. The new town is full of incredible architecture, cobbled streets and individual boutiques which are famous in France. The cite of Carcassonne is a must place to visit, my suggestion is to get there early before castle itself is open, you can wonder the streets, which are incredible before the shops are open and visit the cathedral which is utterly stunning.
