Château for sale

Saint-Mesmin, Dordogne, Nouvelle-Aquitaine

A property for the passionate and historically minded who wish to save this wonderful piece of history. Built by a King’s counsellor in 1615, it was originally bigger but has been locally documented including a duel taking place in 1743! The outbuildings are currently roofed in sheet metal and are dry, the castle needs similar interim measures to conserve its walls and timbers so that restoration can be carried out piecemeal without fear of further dilapidation. Certain parts of the castle has thick walls, and the basement is vaulted. The property overlooks a lake (that are not part of the property). A great opportunity to acquire a chateau with provenance.
