Saint-Cergues, Rhône 74140

Located in Saint-Cergues, less than 5 minutes from the town center, schools, middle school, and the Moniaz customs post, and 3 kilometers from the Machilly train station, this 12th-century castle is an exceptional heritage property. Set on 1,077 sqm of land with a heated swimming pool, the property comprises a 160 sqm main house, two independent apartments renovated in 2023 and 2024, and extensive outbuildings offering outstanding development potential. The main house reveals remarkable historical character from the moment you enter, with its French-style ceilings, exposed stone walls, and majestic medieval fireplace. The spacious and inviting 75 sqm living area combines the living room, dining room, and open-plan kitchen. The upper floors, nestled within the castle tower, house a master suite with a relaxation area and sauna, two additional bedrooms, and an office beneath the exposed roof ridge, offering breathtaking views of the lake and the Jura mountains. The property is distinguished by the quality of its outbuildings, notably a 73 sq m (786 sq ft) unfinished barn with a 15-meter (50 ft) ceiling, ideal for creating independent apartments, a professional office, or a gym and relaxation area. A double garage, a wine cellar, a wood-fired oven, and a workshop complete the picture. The two independent apartments (50 sq m/538 sq ft and 57 sq m/515 sq ft), currently rented furnished, provide immediate rental income (approximately EUR2,000 per month) while ensuring the privacy of the main house. Extensive energy-efficient renovations have been carried out, including the installation of a heat pump, roof repairs, and insulation, combining modern comfort with environmental performance. This rare property, just five minutes from the border, represents a unique opportunity for lovers of history and unusual spaces. Additional photos and a complete file are available upon request.
