Restoration of a French Chateau by a Young Owner: Costs, Interior Renovation, Architecture, ...

Published 2024-05-07
Bought in 2015 by Edouard Guyot, then aged 23, the Château de Vaux has just reached an important milestone with the end of the restoration work on the exteriors (roofs, facades, etc.) and the removal of the scaffolding which allows us to today admire the magnificent architecture of this building designed by the architect Germain Boffrand (Château de Lunéville, Château d'Haroué, etc.).

In this new episode, Edouard takes stock of this titanic construction site and presents the next step: the interiors!

Since 2021, So Châteaux has actively followed the restoration project led by its young owner. Watch our two previous broadcasts to see the progress of the work, learn about the history of the castle and discover its interiors (before and during the renovation).

    This chateau is being restored correctly. Others make changes to their chateaus, so though they call them restorations, they really aren’t. But, this is amazing. This is the way it should be done.

    I'm glad in Europe there are still craftsmen who have the skills to do such beautiful, historic work and renovation.
  • The owner is to be commended on all the dedication and work he’s put into this beautiful château when this place is finished it’ll be absolutely stunning. I am from USA but would love to come and see this place when it’s all done.

    I'm so glad the thieves did not remove the top stone carvings, over the front door. Those are gorgeous.
  • I am awed and impressed by all the chateau owners willing to dedicate decades and millions of euros to the restoration of these expansive and detailed homes. And most of them seem to be French and I once thought that they're cavalier about historic chateaux, b/c they take them for granted. More importantly, I assumed they stirred resentment as relics of oppressive times.

    I'm happy to see someone like you to care for the historic past just like my partner and I did it where we restored the decayed gilded age mansion in Williamstown Massachusetts
