Poitiers, Charente 86000

A small 18th-century chateau with an adjoining house and a 3, 000m garden, nestled in a town in France's Vienne department that draws many visitors. Tall, protective walls separate the property from the road. Beyond the gate, you first enjoy a view of the garden and outbuildings. The chateau then comes into view with its classical facade with two wings and a central section set back. The walls are made of local stone and partly rendered. The adjoining house and courtyard lie at the back. You reach them via a small flight of steps.
