Castle Anet - 9 bedrooms - 515m²

One hour and a quarter from Paris, in a peaceful commune of Eure, a beautiful gate opens onto an honor courtyard beyond which reveals this neoclassical silhouette castle with balanced proportions: minimalist facade, wrought iron balconies, balustrade roof terrace.

It was formerly part of the Anet castle estate, owned by the Dukes of Orléans until 1830, before Frédéric Passy, one of the first Nobel Peace Prize laureates, made it his home in 1901.

It was then called the Red Castle, in reference to the brick that clothed it.

The 1929 fire made it reborn in 1933 in the form of an 18th-century folly inspired by the Petit Trianon, typical of the elegant pleasure homes built to entertain and retreat to the countryside.

The porch, guarded by two stone sphinxes, opens onto a marble-floored hall in black and white checkerboard and its wooden staircase.

On either side, receptions follow in a row: a large living room with gilded paneling, marble fireplace, and Corinthian pilasters, a dining room with multicolored marble, a music room with marble walls, and a small library-living room.

The rooms on this level connect seamlessly and open through wide arched French doors onto the terrace.

Herringbone parquet, moldings, gilding, ironwork, and crystal chandeliers mark out a carefully preserved original decor.

A kitchen and a dressing room complete this level, which extends directly onto the terrace and garden.

On the upper floor, five bright bedrooms with fine woodwork and great quietness open onto the park and trees, several with balcony, under high ceilings.

They have four bathrooms and preserve lovely details, including a remarkable mosaic rosette.

The basement houses a bedroom with its bathroom, a service kitchen, a spa area with sauna and hammam, cellars, and a technical room.

Some rooms remain to be fitted out according to needs.

Outside, the terrace overlooks a formal garden that retains its entire geometry: flower beds, trimmed yews, octagonal basin in the center, statues, gravel pathways, and perspectives open onto magnificent trees.

The Eure borders the property on both sides and invites walks through more than one and a half hectares of wooded and preserved park, away from prying eyes.

A 90 sqm.

caretaker's house with three bedrooms, a cold storage room, and garages complete the ensemble.

The volumes, the light, and the richness of the original decor are present.

Few properties combine the authenticity of a historic castle and the pleasure of a riverside park to this extent.

Refreshing is needed to turn it into a large family home or a reception residence less than an hour from Paris.

Anet and its shops are a few minutes away, major roads are nearby.

A rare property full of character, we invite you to discover it on site.

• Historical Authenticity: neoclassical château with a rich past.
