This 19th century castle has been converted into a three-story house by NYC-based interior designer Thierry Despont and chief architect of the Bâtiments de France society Jacques Moulin. The property consists of a main unit with 814 sqm of living space. The entrance, with a wide clearance, connects to a kitchen, a living room and a library. The 174 sq m basement hosts a study, a laundry room and a vaulted wine cellar. Additional outbuildings totalling 1,100 sq m feature a workshop, a showroom and a keeper’s house. The property is nested in a 131-acre park filled with sculptures. Furniture and works of art are available separately.
