A 17th century farmhouse in the heart of the Gard Garrigues, a precious testimony to centuries of pastoral life. The various buildings, with their thick limestone walls, are part of a series of edifices that were erected starting in the 17th century. They surround a courtyard, a space which links and protects the different farm activities. Called a 'barn' in the 18th century, this agricultural building consisted of a single structure to the north and an elevation at right angles to the east. Today, only four massive stone pillars remain, distributed around the courtyard. The development of the other two wings still standing today had to wait until the 19th century, when the cultivation of mulberry trees - of which fine specimens remain in the park - developed. At that time, silkworm breeding was at its peak, until a devastating epidemic, pepper disease, ravaged most of the farms in the Gard. The architectural style of the eastern wing presents all the typical characteristics of a silkworm farm: a long, narrow and tall building, two storeys high, with small regular openings and a gable roof, with a chimney for the ventilation and heating necessary for the growth of the 'Magnans” (greedy silkworms). The second wing on the western side was built for the staff who were required to live on the premises. The windows, which are larger in size, receive generous sunlight from the west. From the windows facing the sunset, the view encompasses the surrounding garrigue shrublands as well as the flock of sheep from the neighbouring village that regularly graze nearby. To the north, the building has remained in its original state with, on the lower level, solid cross vaults which sheltered the animals under the hayloft above. The courtyard facades are entirely lime-rendered and those visible from the outside - with the exception of the east wing - show bonded rubble limestone. The gable roofs are clad with monk-and-nun tiles.

A 72 ha wine estate and its manor house with outbuildings close to the town of Carcassonne in the Aude department. A large wrought iron gate opens onto an extensive oval-shaped lawn, encircled by two driveways leading to the main house. The property also includes outbuildings, some of which are directly connected to the main dwelling. Forming a U-shape, they but onto each other and house seven lodgings. The driveway that runs alongside the house on the left leads to a lawned courtyard lined with plane trees, bordered by the various buildings erected for wine production: a winery, a caretaker's cottage, a stable and a shed, among others. The house, the adjoining buildings and the grounds cover an area of 2.24 hectares. The manor house has a classical-style rectangular shape and faces south-north. The two-storey building extends over a floor area of approx. 260 m² and is topped by garrets. Built in the late 19th century in a neoclassical style, it is currently in need of major restoration works. Its main stone facade, with light grey rendering, features ten slightly arched windows topped by glazed transoms and protected by shutters. The entrance door is accessed via a wide perron with a wrought-iron balustrade. The window frames are of grey cement. The French window above the entrance door on the first floor opens onto a small balcony with a wrought iron balustrade, supported by two carved stone brackets. The top of the elevation is adorned with a stone roof entablature. The four-pitched roof, with three skylights and six chimney stacks, is laid with interlocking Languedoc clay tiles. The outbuildings are also of stone and terracotta; the rendered walls have straight or semi-circular windows, mostly with brick surrounds; the roofs, mostly gable, are of interlocking or monk-and-nun tiles. The vineyard covers an area of 53 hectares, and the vines planted here are of different varieties: Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Syrah, Merlot, Cinsault and Muscat.
