Description

18th century French Château in the middle of a park and woods situated close to a village with amenities near Mazamet in the Tarn department in southwest France. The castle has kept all its original charm and character with many features such as the high ceilings, wooden beams, 8 fireplaces some of them marble, 3 staircases, chestnut paneling, old tiles and typical architecture of that period, with main rooms for the chateau owners and its secret passages for the servants… The château is on three floors (230 sq.m on each) and needs to be upgraded except the roof which has been restored. The castle offers over 500 sq.m of potential living area, it comes with many rooms, some have been restored and others are waiting for the new owners to apply their touch to make it their own. There is some furniture, a mixture of old large items that suit the age (and scale) of the property and some more modern items that do not look out of place.  The owners are happy to include these in the sale along with the cleaning robot and other cleaning equipment plus other items for the pool such as winter and summer covers.
