RARE ESTATE BETWEEN ROYAN ET SAINTES WITH LUXURY SUITES AND PRESTIGIOUS OUTBUILDINGS
Royan Île d'Oléron Sotheby’s International Realty presents, between Royan and Saintes and at the heart of an unspoiled setting, this elegant 18th-century Maison de Maître, gracefully standing within more than 5,000 sq.m of enclosed, landscaped grounds. Restored with remarkable finesse, it embodies an art of living where every detail reflects an exceptional sense of style and an uncompromising selection of materials and proportions.
Upon entering, the tone is immediately set: refined elegance, authentic character, and a renovation executed with impeccable taste. The original flooring, balanced volumes, and natural light filtering through the openings all contribute to a serene and timeless atmosphere. The entrance hall naturally leads to the two principal rooms of the ground floor: to the right, a warm and inviting dining room with a fireplace perfect for winter evenings; to the left, a cosy and intimate lounge now arranged as a billiard room, also enhanced by an original fireplace.
Continuing through the home, a magnificent, light-filled through-living room opens onto the gardens, offering both a sense of openness and a delicate transition between the reception rooms and the private quarters. The kitchen—designed for those who appreciate the pleasure of sharing fine moments as much as refined culinary practice—harmoniously blends contemporary features with preserved period details. Adjacent to it, the bar area invites one to imagine convivial evenings among friends.
The ground floor also features three elegant and generously proportioned suites, each offering the comfort and amenities of a luxury boutique hotel. Upstairs, the sense of softness and refinement continues with three additional suites, a fourth bedroom with its own shower room and separate WC, as well as a charming study whose proportions and peaceful view make it an inspiring workspace.
Outside, the mature landscaped park—planted with a rich variety of species and designed with great care—creates a haven of peace: shaded terraces, a delightful kitchen garden, reading nooks beneath the wisteria, and a superb swimming pool seamlessly integrated into the surroundings. Each season brings its own atmosphere, always calming and beautifully framed.
The property’s characterful outbuildings complete this exceptional ensemble: a fully fitted wine-tasting cellar, a wellness area with gym and sauna, a large reception hall, a double garage, a laundry room, and even a 12th-century former chapel awaiting its next chapter.
Offering significant potential for a high-end hospitality project, private events, or inspiring professional spaces, this estate is ideally situated just 25 minutes from the beaches.
A rare and remarkable property, perfectly combining heritage elegance, modern comfort, and the serenity of a verdant setting. A unique opportunity for lovers of distinguished homes, those seeking a refined art of living, or visionaries with exceptional ambitions.
