A 14th Century Château Set in a 12-Acre Walled Park

This property is on the market with Mark Harvey of Knight Frank for €12,500,000

Business Insider reported that Knight Frank inquiries are up 50% for country estates in the South of France—which means this dreamy château won’t be on the market for long! 

the 12-acre walled property is set near the medieval village of Bar Sur Loup—halfway between Grasse and Vence, and just 50 minutes from Monaco. 

Château des Valettes offers over 8600 square feet of living space with 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and several elegant reception rooms. 

The 14th century property has been lavishly restored to showcase its frescoed ceilings, original flooring, and boasts a cavernous wine cellar. 

The outdoor spaces have been meticulously landscaped and designed for entertaining, featuring an expansive pool terrace in addition to a shaded clay tennis court. 

The property covers 12 acres of cyrpus-filled grounds (there’s also a beautiful water feature to complete the ambiance), with sweeping views over the village of Gourdon
