Moulins, Auvergne 03000

A part-listed Renaissance chateau remodelled over time, with eight hectares of tree-dotted grounds by the city of Moulins in France's Allier department. The chateau stands in the heart of vast, tree-dotted grounds that cover over eight hectares. This estate is set back from the city of Moulins and is surrounded by meadows. A country lane takes you to the property. A wrought-iron gate framed between two stone pillars leads onto a long driveway that runs through the grounds. The majestic shape of the chateau then comes into view. The edifice is made up of two wings that form an L shape. It looks out southwards at the grounds and northwards at a gravel courtyard edged with brick outbuildings.
