Ref. 4369: Superb 19th century Chateau for sale A short 5 minute drive from the nearby market town, 10 minutes from a popular tourist destination, 30 minutes from TGV and Autoroute connections, 10 minutes from a Natural park and 1 hour from Tours and Poitiers .. it's no wonder that this nicely presented 19th century chateau has seen many paying guests, weddings and birthday parties. Time has now come to hand over the running of this charming property to someone new, maybe as a family residence and/or continuing the well established reputation as guest lodgings or maybe something different.
