Exclusively, just 15 minutes from Angoulême and its TGV station (Paris in 1h45), Château de La Rochandry, listed as ISMH (Inventaire Supplémentaire des Monuments Historiques), stands on a rocky spur overlooking the Boëme valley and offers panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. With its distinctive architecture and turrets, it stands among the most remarkable châteaux in Charente. With approximately 890 sqm of living space, the château, rebuilt in the 19th century on the foundations of a former medieval fortress, combines historic elegance with modern comfort. It offers beautiful reception spaces: a 70 sqm entrance hall with a double staircase, a drawing room/library, a dining room, a family kitchen and service areas. The first floor is laid out around a gallery leading to several bedrooms, with boudoir, dressing rooms and bathrooms. The second floor includes additional bedrooms and rooms to be converted as required. An attic completes the ensemble and provides further potential. Two stained-glass windows featuring heraldic motifs, the vaulted room, the underground passageway beneath the building and the adjoining chapel highlight the uniqueness of the property. Outbuildings include a guest house, as well as a barn, workshops and storage spaces. The estate spans nearly 10 hectares of meadows and woodland, crossed by the Boëme river, and features a swimming pool and an old windmill. Preserved, historic and full of life, this property offers a unique setting that makes it truly exceptional.
