hâteau Biar is a superb 19th Century Mansion just outside Montpellier.
Originally the summer house of Parisian nobility, the Chateau is currently being converted into a very upscale development of which just one property is being made available for sale, with all others having been sold privately pre-launch.
Once the social hub of life at the Chateau, the Ballroom at Chateau Biar is a superb open space. A complete architectural plan with full planning permission is in place for the restoration – an elegant fusion contemporary lines and period features. Restoration is underway, with the roof fully restored, and the interior stripped back ready for interior work to begin. The full restoration project will be completed in less than 12 months.
The completed property will feature 5 bedrooms, (4 ensuite), a huge double height (9m) living area with vaulted fireplace, kitchen and two further reception rooms. The property will stretch to 350m² in total. CLICK HERE to view a summary version of the architectural plans. On site project management is being undertaken by well know architectural and interior design firm dabadabada (see www.dabadabada.fr).
The Chateau sits on grounds of over 2 hectares (4.5 acres), of which 5500m² (1.3 acres) are exclusive to the Salle De Bal. This area includes a bambouserie, pergola and a wide variety of mature trees and shrubs, including cedar, sequoia and magnolia. Our bespoke restoration programme envisages a large feature swimming pool.
One of the unique aspects of Chateau Biar is its location, a country vineyard setting (châteaux de l’Engarran, Château de Fourques), on the outskirts of the village of de Lavérune, but just 5 minutes (5km) from the university city of Montpellier. Montpellier, capital of the Languedoc, with its plethora of restaurants, bars, museums and cultural events was recently dubbed “France’s coolest city” by Conde Nast traveller. The property is also just 10 mintues from the Mediterranean coast, with white sand beaches, beach clubs and lively coastal nightlife.
Price €1.1m fully restored with 10 year construction guarantees.
