Château de Fontenay

Located north of Orléans, in an agricultural region called La Beauce, 70 miles from Paris, this impressive 16th century manor has been a landmark of the village of Fontenay-sur-Conie for more than 400 years.

A British art-collecting retail entrepreneur bought it completely furnished. But its rooms needed an update, so interior designer Tino Zervudachi and his team from Mlinaric, Henry & Zervudachi were appointed to fulfill the task.

Chateau Dior

Not much information about this magnificent residence. Beside location it just said "download pdf.". Well I did as I was told and downloaded pdf. but found no information there. Ah well, as it's a chateau, let's place it somewhere in the south of France, let's say in Provence, why not?

This Chateau Dior is a dream. Its beautiful gardens, the ivy creeping on the stone walls, the pool with coloured fish. It even has a detached chapel. As much as I love the outside and the building itself, and all the antique furniture, I am not so keen on the decor. Especially the bathroom and bedrooms. Well dears, just see for yourselves and let me know what you think.
