French Chateau in the Piney Woods - Wedding, Event, Retreat, Gathering, Museum

Locally known as the "Brooks Mansion" - the chateau is inspired by Marie-Antoinnete's "The Petit Trianon Palace" which was built in 1774 on the grounds of Versailles, France, and given to her by her husband Louis the XVI. It was a perfect example of the "Greek Style" that was sweeping through Europe in that era. Mrs. Virginia Brooks of Atlanta, Texas traveled extensively throughout Europe, and on one of her visits, she fell in love with this palace and wanted one of her own... so she ordered it! The shipment of Italian stone was in "kit form" and each stone was numbered to be put in an exact place. Carved into a hillside on Louise Street, Mrs. Virginia built this chateau and prided herself on the fact that her house design has two more windows than Marie-Antoinnete's!

This magnificent estate sits on 48 acres of beautiful grounds and has graced Atlanta Texas with its opulence since 1960 when it was completed. The home has marble and hand crafted wood floors, high ceilings (approx 12'), three fireplaces, and multiple living rooms. There are 6 bedrooms, 7 baths and 2 half baths, plus a maid’s quarter. All bathrooms are marble. Every room has double French Doors adorned with vintage hardware. The Kitchen was of forward-thinking design, "state-of-the-Art" 1960's style, equipped with an Island, Indoor Grille, Double Oven, and a huge food prep Pantry Room. This is a palatial Masterpiece.

The chateau was recently purchased and refurbished. The new owners want it to be known as a landmark where people come to make memories!

This is a perfect setting for a romantic wedding, retreat or gathering - please ontact the owner to arrange the best way for your party to come and experience this treasure!

Fun weekend away in a fun location
We stayed at the property over Easter weekend with family. There were four adults and two teens, and more than enough room for all of us. We were met upon arrival and given a tour of the property and shown how to use some of the things on site. There are a lot of original things to the period it was built, and the images on the listing show off some of the highlights of the property. We enjoyed exploring, playing hide and seek, and relaxing with the family. There were a couple of negatives, but none of these would deter me from wanting to stay in such a unique place again: some of the doors are hard to open/shut, and in one of the rooms with a bed there is a bright red exit sign that lights up the whole room at night (my niece really liked using it as a night light - she could have easily stayed in one of the other rooms that was available if not). We had a fun time and maybe some day we will make it back :)

Raul is great with communication
Raul introduced himself to me right away and gave me his contact info in case we needed anything during our stay. Our Techs checked in and (as it was freezing winter in TX at the time) They requested additional space heaters. I contacted Raul and he was out to the property that day to take care of our requests. Our group was very happy with Raul and his quick and helpful response. The house was perfect for our group of 5 who required individual bedrooms and bathrooms. I can see this property being an amazing location for weddings and events as well. Raul was a wonderful, attentive property manager.
