A 16th-century historic residence in the heart of the Pierres Dorées
Located in the heart of the village of Morancé, this exceptional residence harmoniously blends heritage, elegance and the art of living. It is ideal for connoisseurs of unique properties seeking a home steeped in history.
Offering 350 sqm of living space, this residence, dating from 1574 and built by an Italian architect, captivates from the very first moment with the grandeur of its architecture and the authenticity of its heritage features. Upon entering, a staircase adorned with Tuscan half-columns stands out as the property’s architectural signature, preserved with remarkable care over the centuries.
Tucked away from view, the property features, across 3,187 sqm of land, a collection of outbuildings that form an integral part of its identity. La Jacobine, the original bread oven, the vaulted cellar and the various outbuildings tell the story of the estate whilst offering numerous possibilities for development. This is a rare layout, ideal for a family home as well as for a reception venue or a prestigious guesthouse.
The interior of this manor house exudes timeless elegance: its spacious rooms, high ceilings and the property’s well-preserved character combine to create a unique atmosphere, where the charm of the past comes across naturally. On the ground floor, two spacious living areas complement one another: an elegant reception room, enhanced by a remarkable period fireplace, a French-style ceiling and an Italian-inspired mural depicting trompe-l’œil columns; and a family kitchen where the stone sink and original fireplace also bear witness to the property’s history. The kitchen opens onto the terrace and the landscaped grounds, inviting you to make the most of this unspoilt setting. Each of the two upper floors features two spacious bedrooms with remarkable proportions, offering plenty of scope for various interior design projects. The shower rooms and bathroom are situated within the fortress, continuing the architectural authenticity that has characterised this residence for over four centuries.
Rare for its history and remarkable for its authenticity, this manor house offers more than just a place to live: it presents the opportunity to become the caretaker of an exceptional heritage, in the heart of a sought-after village in the Pierres Dorées region.
