Château de la Chaux, also known as Buffefeu - A piece of Civray history
Mentioned as early as 1403, Château de la Chaux, also known as Buffefeu, once belonged to the county of Civray. Its history is closely linked to several families: the Buffefeu and Babignon families in the 15th and 16th centuries, then the Jousserand family from the second half of the 17th century. The de Menou family owned the estate until the end of the 19th century, before it was acquired by a Civraisien family in the 20th century and sold to the current owners in the 2000s.

A carefully restored residence of character.
The château has undergone numerous renovation campaigns over the centuries, while retaining architectural features dating back to the 17th century. The fully restored main dwelling offers 266 m² of living space, combining modern comfort with old-world charm.
The first floor features a large kitchen with original stone flooring, a living room on one side and a study on the other, with access to the laundry room and the first tower used as a storeroom.
A staircase leads upstairs to a landing and corridor with a bathroom, three large bedrooms and a master suite.
The second tower houses a spiral staircase leading directly from the first floor to the kitchen.

The dwelling is heated by a heat pump, complemented by wood-burning stoves in the main rooms on the first floor. Double-glazed wooden joinery blends harmoniously with the façade. Sanitation is provided by a septic tank.

Outbuildings full of potential.
Outside, the estate comprises four large outbuildings totalling around 1,200 m², offering great potential for renovations such as the possible creation of gîtes or a residence, or the fitting out of a reception room or accommodation in the former barn, where the high ceilings and original 19th-century features are a reminder of the past importance of the horse-breeding activity.
An exceptional natural setting, the château extends over more than 7 hectares of land, including around 2 hectares of woodland, providing calm, privacy and a bucolic setting ideal for tourist or family projects.
