You can throw away the thought of a castle as a building with dungeons and dark rooms. With huge windows and a light and bright interior this residence is the opposite. Still the white stone arches in the living and corner towers are showing its ancestry. The terracotta floors, the huge fireplaces and romantic stairs are details of the past. The fully equipped kitchen on a split level is a remnant of ancient authority. The double doors at the dining room open up to the pleasant terrace. Upstairs the naturally bright corridor gives access to four spacious bedrooms with three en suites. After some TLC the three-bedroom farmhouse/gite could give room for guests, family and friends. The 17,5 m pool, the small lake and woodlands will invite you to outdoor activities.
