The West Wing of a 16th-Century Château - Turnkey, Furnished, 1.4 Acres Enclosed

Summary
A rare chance to own your own wing of the Château du Vigeant, in the quiet countryside of the southern Vienne - fully renovated, sold furnished, and offered directly by the owners with no agency fees.

Once the château's kitchen, this is now a turnkey home behind private gates and metre-and-a-half-thick stone walls: bright, south-facing open-plan living, two bedrooms, a large contemporary bathroom, and an entrance hall with piano. Wi-Fi-controlled underfloor heating, double glazing, mains drainage, fast internet and CCTV/alarm. 108 m² in total (97 m² Carrez). Move in with a suitcase.

Outside are 1.4 acres (5,600 m²) of fully walled and gated gardens, invisible from the road - mature orchard with apples, pears, cherries and vines, a rose courtyard with a Finnish sauna, and the evocative remains of an 11th-century tower. A 40 m² outbuilding (with a 27 m² workshop, planning granted for a garage door) offers gîte or garage potential.

The château carries the legacy of the Poussart family - barons and marquises connected to the Prince de Condé. Genuinely private, genuinely peaceful - and better connected than it looks. L'Isle-Jourdain (shops, restaurants, river) is 5 minutes; Poitiers and Limoges airports around an hour; the TGV reaches Paris in 1h15. Taxe foncière is just €648 a year.

€214,000 net vendeur, no agency fees. Fuller details, floor plan and the full story at chateauduvigeant.com.
