About this property

Le Château - Pourlans

Stay in an exceptional historic building! Very elegant 13th century fortified house - steeped in history & carefully restored - located on a vast enclosed natural park of 1.4 ha, 9 km from the charming typical & commercial town of Pierre-de-Bresse (many shops & services and renowned eco-museum of Bresse Bourguignonne nestled in a sumptuous 17th century castle) and 10 km from Seurre (all amenities on site). Small residential village nestled in the heart of the Bresse countryside, in the hollow of an agricultural plain of fields & forests, 3.5 km from the banks of the Doubs, a preserved natural site classified as a "Zone Natura 2000" (paradise for fishermen and nature lovers alike) , very close to marked hiking trails winding through the vast national forest nestled close by, 6 km from marked hiking trails in "green walks" (rich network of similar routes to discover in the surroundings), 10 km from the EuroVélo6 cycle route connected to the greenway, and about forty km from the world-famous vineyards of the Côtes Chalonnaises, Côtes de Beaune & Hautes Côtes de Beaune as well as the vineyards of the Jura (various wine routes to be covered including the Grands Crus Route). On the borders of Bresse Bourguignonne, superb unspoiled territory - cradle of the famous Bresse poultry AOC of world renown - rich in a notable heritage and ultra-varied landscapes alternating bocage plains dotted with ponds, rivers, forests, meadows and mountainous foothills of the Jura massif. Location of choice to shine, at the crossroads of Chalonnais & Pays Beaunois, on the border of the departments of Côte d'Or & Jura. 21 km from Verdun sur-le-Doubs (& its river marina nestled at the confluence of the Doubs & the Saône), 26 km from Dole (labeled "Town of Art and History"), 35 km from Beaune, 39 km from Chalon-sur-Saône (labeled "City of Art and History"), 41 km from Louhans (& its iconic medieval thoroughfare with 157 arcades), 46 km from Lons-le-Saunier & 51 km from Dijon. Ideal for an ultra comfortable stay in a 100% exotic tribe, as if literally immersed "out of time"! A property steeped in history & mystery; a former owner of the place once found a treasure there which made his fortune... Marie-France & Gilles welcome you to a majestic 13th-century fortified house steeped in history (once linked to a now-vanished medieval castle), boasting rare and elegant brick architecture, carefully restored and transformed into a very comfortable holiday home. Located in the heart of the Bresse agricultural countryside, between fields and meadows, bordering the center of a small residential village nestled between the banks of the nearby Doubs River (a paradise for kayakers and anglers, famous for its catfish, zander, and carp, with natural beaches), a remarkable protected ecosystem classified as a "Natura 2000 Zone" (an exceptional bird sanctuary rich in 160 species of birds and very rare plant varieties), and the vast neighboring Pourlans state forest, a veritable "green lung" crisscrossed with footpaths (to be explored on foot or by mountain bike). A vast, enclosed 1.4-hectare natural park, partly wooded (a perfect playground and adventure area for children), includes two large terraces (one sunny, one shaded) and a small ornamental pond. The cottage offers excellent comfort and is very spacious with generous proportions. It boasts a warm, bourgeois charm with contemporary touches, creating a luxurious and refined atmosphere that blends tradition and modernity, enhanced by rich historical features including an unusual chapel (brick walls, stone fireplace mantel, beams, ceilings, magnificent timber frame, terracotta tiles, vaulted cellars, etc.). It exudes charm and character, and is incredibly cozy and comfortable. Layout: Detached house on 3 levels (accessed via a 50m cobbled driveway). Wi-Fi. Air conditioning. Heat pump heating + fireplace. 1st floor: kitchen, living/dining room, separate WC. 2nd floor. 4 bedrooms (each with two single beds 90x190cm), 2 bathrooms (multi-jet showers), separate WC. 3rd floor: large open-plan bedroom with a mezzanine (4 single beds 90x190cm / 1 double bed 160x200cm). Enclosed 1.5-hectare grounds + double terrace + bicycle storage + private parking. Amenities 9 km. Supermarkets 10 km.

Super séjour dans un petit château très agréable
