A 17th-Century Chateau in the South of France$4.1 MILLION (3.7 MILLION EUROS)This 17th-century chateau is in Saint-Victor-des-Oules, a hilltop village in the south of France just outside the historic town of Uzès, about 90 miles northwest of Marseille and the Mediterranean Coast. The 18-bedroom home anchors two landscaped acres, with two guest pavilions, a caretaker’s unit, swimming pool, tennis court and lily pond. Since 2014, the 9,000-square-foot house has undergone extensive renovations, including improvements to its slate-tiled towers, which were added in the 19th century , and the lime rendering on the stone facade. Inside, the airy foyer has an original stained-glass window and a chandelier, with a 17th-century carved stone staircase ascending through an archway. Contemporary frescos inspired by motifs of Louis XV and Italian frescos adorn the walls.
