Mâcon, Burgundy 71000

Spacious habitable estate and its outbuildings, at the heart of a walled and wooded park, with a pond, a pondlet and a swimming pool, on a plot of 70,903 m², with private access to a neighbouring golf course. This vast property comprises the main building, the Château, with approximately 1,200 m² of living space, numerous outbuildings, a caretakers house of about 90 m², a gardeners house to renovate of about 120 m², and a small chapel. The walled and fenced park offers bucolic walks with a pool-side area featuring handsome flower parterres arranged along paths leading to a summer kiosk, rose beds, a large orchard and two bodies of water (a pond and a small lake). The wings reserved for living spaces surround the Cour dHonneur: they provide ground-floor living rooms, including lounges, dining room, kitchen and pantry, offices, a gym, and a section that could be renovated into a suite. The central staircase and the elevator serve the two upper floors, which offer 17 bedrooms, 15 of which have en-suite bathrooms, and lounges. The outbuildings are vast and numerous: some have been renovated as the summer dining room with its bread oven, many storage areas, the workshop, the boiler room and a small chapel. This part dates from the 18th and 19th centuries and has belonged to the same family for over a century. The caretakers house, fully renovated, and the agricultural outbuildings housing the equipment and tools needed for park maintenance form a second, more recent, independent courtyard from the first. At the far end of the park, on the south side of the property, is the gardeners house on two levels: this property could have its own separate entrance. Finally, at the entrance of the park, a two-vehicle garage is located near the entry gates that lead to the domain. The property is habitable, well maintained and secured by an alarm system and the presence of the caretaker couple. This estate is located on the site of an ancient Templar commandery dating back to the 12th and 16th centuries, later occupied by the Knights of the Order of Malta until the French Revolution. The estate benefits from private access to a renowned golf course, adjacent to the property. Together, it is suitable for professional hotel and event operations, as well as a family residence project. It is located 12 km from Vonnas, 11 km from the Macon Loché TGV station, 65 km from Lyon and 148 km from Geneva.
