Castle Cardet - 1100m²

This château, situated in the Gard region on the edge of the Cévennes, is one of the most remarkable historic properties in the south of France.

Listed as a Historic Monument, this exceptional estate covers more than 7 hectares of fully enclosed grounds and comprises an 18th-century château, substantial outbuildings, a remarkable landscaped park and heritage features of rare quality.

Built on 14th-century medieval foundations and then extensively remodelled in the 17th and 18th centuries, the château has remained in the same family for nearly 700 years, ensuring the exceptional preservation of its architecture and interior décor.

Carefully restored over recent decades, it now offers a rare balance between historical authenticity and contemporary comfort.

The château comprises approximately 1,100 m² of living space spread over four levels.

Its layout centres around a spectacular Italian-style staircase adorned with stucco decoration and mythological bas-reliefs, considered one of the finest examples of its kind in Languedoc.

The reception areas include a dining room featuring early 18th-century Italian frescoes, several adjoining drawing rooms, and a large salon boasting an exceptional panoramic ‘Réveillon’ wallpaper – a rare work from the Parisian manufacturer that supplied the court of Versailles.

The upper floors house several suites and apartments, whilst the service floors preserve vaulted cellars, a historic kitchen, a Renaissance laundry room and medieval remains.

Surrounding a vast cobbled courtyard are over 1,850 m² of outbuildings: a former spinning mill converted into a reception hall, an orangery and silkworm house, self-contained flats, a tower library, converted former stables, an 18th-century caretaker’s house, as well as several buildings offering significant development potential for residential, hotel, cultural or events-related projects.

The English-style park, covering more than 5.7 hectares, forms a remarkable landscaped ensemble combining vast tree-lined lawns, woodland, sculpted gardens, historic bamboo groves, groves of ginkgo and Lebanese cedar trees, a large kitchen garden and service areas.

It also features a rare monumental noria and its 17th- and 18th-century nymphaeum, fed by several wells, as well as an elegant Palladian-style swimming pool with a pool house.
Thanks to its history, its state of preservation, its listed features, its exceptional grounds and the quality of its restoration work, this château represents a unique opportunity on the market for historic French residences.
