Nivelles I Castle of Fonteneau

The Château de Fonteneau, constructed in 1756, embodies the elegance of classical French architecture with its beautifully defined facades, now classified as historical landmarks. Nestled within a sprawling 6-hectare estate, the property features a harmonious blend of open parklands and serene wooded areas, highlighted by a picturesque stream that forms a tranquil pond with a stunning triple fan-shaped waterfall. The expansive 1,100 m² castle is complemented by two pavilions, although only one remains, with the other transformed into a charming belvedere terrace. Inside, a grand vestibule welcomes you to three elegant reception rooms and a cozy lounge, alongside a study, a spacious dining kitchen with a scullery, and a delightful conservatory with a fireplace. The first floor boasts 7 well-appointed bedrooms and bathrooms, a study, and a warm library. Additional amenities include a gym, a massage room featuring a sauna and hammam, and a concierge service. At the heart of the grounds lies a quaint "theatre" that can be adapted into a workspace complete with a 2-car garage. The estate is also equipped with a wine cellar, alarm system, and gas heating. The property is available through the sale of shares in the owning company, including furnishings (excluding artworks). Nivelles provides convenient access to major routes leading to Waterloo, Brussels, and Paris.
