Castle with 20 rooms on sale in Valence - 1 485 m²

Just one kilometer from the center of Valence, in the heart of a landscaped park of 4.3 hectares featuring a pond, a river, and century-old trees, this remarkable Art Nouveau castle was built between 1900 and 1904 by architect Pierre Blein for engineer Alfred Gayet. The property is distinguished by its elegant architecture and exceptional interior decorations, stained glass windows, painted frescoes, Versailles parquet floors, marble fireplaces, carved woodwork, and a majestic grand staircase. The castle offers about twenty rooms spread over three habitable levels, including large reception lounges, a dining room, a billiard room, five main bedrooms with bathrooms, four service bedrooms, and spacious attics.
