Petit Versailles in Provence

Classy and commercial in Périgord
This splendid French château for sale (HH-5063842) is a feudal castle that goes back as far as the 12th century. It has 30 rooms and is part of a large domain, on 128 hectares of land, which consists of many buildings. Just 40km from Limoges, and in the heart of the regional park of Périgord, it has been set up for commercial purposes, but would equally make an impressive private domain. The property includes a guard’s house, spacious apartment, boutique, large barn, two houses and a medieval eight-hole golf course. Properties like this do not come on the market very often, and, having been completely restored with all modern comforts, it is an interesting investment opportunity for the right buyer at €20 million.
Renaissance-style château in the Midi Pyrénées
When buyers seek French châteaux for sale, commercial interests often play a part, and this property, which is located in the Haute Garonne, has two business projects in the pipeline.
A grand 16th century renaissance-style château (HH-7647263) with up to 200 hectares available, the first project is the creation of an international golf course and 30 hectares of vineyards, with wine production and storage facilities. The second is an off-plan development for luxury houses around the fairways of the golf course.
The listed property itself is set over five levels, offers ten bedrooms and is just under half an hour from the international airport of Toulouse. The price is available on application.
