A castle to reinvent in the heart of the Pays de Bray

This neo-Renaissance château, dating from 1890, offers 775 sq m of living space (excluding 140 sq m of cellars) and requires complete renovation.

Formerly a hunting lodge, it served successively as a medical center during both World Wars for the American and then Russian armies, and has since been an exceptional private residence. Located near Forges-les-Eaux, a vibrant spa town with a casino and golf course, the property benefits from a preserved natural environment while remaining easily accessible: 1 hour 30 minutes from Paris, 50 minutes from Beauvais Airport, and 1 hour from Dieppe.

In this privileged setting, the approximately 2-hectare wooded park opens onto the rolling meadows of the Pays de Bray and offers unobstructed views with excellent landscaping potential.

The château’s elegant architecture is then fully revealed, highlighted by its towers, watchtowers, and pepperpot roof, as well as its beautifully crafted façade combining stone and glazed brick. With its excellent exposure, this château benefits from abundant natural light, enhanced by its numerous windows and original shutters.

From the moment you enter, the atmosphere is set: generous proportions, preserved period flooring, and original stained-glass windows. The ground floor is organized around several reception areas, including a large living room, a dining room with a period fireplace, and several adjoining sitting rooms.

A majestic first staircase provides access to most of the levels, while a second staircase ensures seamless circulation throughout the château, a particularly well-suited feature for a project accommodating the public. The first floor offers four bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, complemented by an additional room that could be converted into a bedroom with a shower room, offering the potential for approximately five bedrooms.

On the second floor, a suite with a bedroom, dressing room, and bathroom sits alongside several additional bedrooms. This level could easily accommodate approximately four bedrooms or suites, depending on the project.

In the attic, the third floor reveals exceptional potential for conversion, allowing for the creation of two additional suites.

Finally, the cellars, also bathed in natural light, offer ample space suitable for a professional kitchen, technical areas, storage, or a laundry room.

Between historical heritage, Neo-Renaissance architecture, and remarkable proportions, this château represents a rare opportunity to breathe new life into an exceptional residence. It lends itself equally well to a prestigious family home, a hotel project, or a charming, secluded retreat.
