CHÂTEAU DE MARQUEIN

A Historic Renaissance Château on the Outskirts of Toulouse

Just thirty minutes from Toulouse, set within a fully enclosed 12-hectare estate, Château de Marquein stands proudly on a natural hilltop, overlooking the surrounding countryside and enjoying beautiful views towards the Pyrenees.

This Renaissance château, believed to have welcomed Catherine de’ Medici and King Henry IV during its long history, bears witness to several centuries of French heritage. With no immediate neighbours, the estate enjoys a peaceful and secluded setting, where the château, its former farm buildings and surrounding land form a harmonious architectural and natural ensemble.

The château offers approximately 900 sq m of floor space, comprising spacious reception rooms, living areas and upper floors historically devoted to private apartments.

In recent years, the property has undergone an extensive programme of restoration, carefully undertaken to preserve its architectural character and ensure the long-term integrity of the building. The roof, windows and external doors, electrical installations and heating system have all been entirely renewed.

These significant works represent an important milestone in the revival of this historic residence. The remaining interior works offer future owners the opportunity to create living spaces reflecting their own vision, while respecting the château’s architectural heritage and history.

THE ESTATE AND ITS OUTBUILDINGS

Beyond the château itself, the property is distinguished by the scale and variety of its outbuildings, inherited from its agricultural past.

The estate comprises:

* A Renaissance château of approximately 900 sq m, with the principal structural restoration works largely completed.

* Two substantial barns, providing extensive garage and storage facilities, together with an independent guest house offering four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a spacious living room.

* A further barn, housing a workshop and the château’s former stables, reflecting the estate’s historic agricultural character.

* A former caretaker’s enclosure, including an independent two-bedroom house of approximately 80 sq m.

* 12 hectares of fully enclosed grounds, comprising expansive natural spaces, meadows and beautiful views across the surrounding countryside.

* A heated saltwater swimming pool, complemented by a heated Jacuzzi, set within a peaceful and private environment.

The diversity of these buildings gives the estate a remarkable degree of independence and flexibility, offering numerous possibilities, whether as an extensive private family residence, a property designed to accommodate guests, or a hospitality project, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

A HISTORIC RESIDENCE READY FOR A NEW CHAPTER

Château de Marquein possesses the distinctive qualities of France’s great historic residences: striking architecture, generous proportions and a natural setting that forms an integral part of its identity.
