Wrapped in a lush 50-acre garden park in the heart of Belgium, the Castle of Ostemerée enjoys an all-encompassing view over a stunning valley, magnificent ponds, and mature woods. It’s the sort of place a count or a baroness might live. In fact, this magnificent chateau has been the home of famous financiers, counts, and baronesses in the past.

The salons and waiting spaces show off the uncompromising use of design and material science of the time. Courtesy of Belgium Sotheby’s International Realty
