luxury real estate for sale Chatillon-sur-seine, France

A country house with 8,600m² of grounds, nestled in the Forêts national park in northern Burgundy. The house was built in the 19th century. Walls and fences surround it. The property’s only neighbour is the village church. The main edifice stands beside a gardener’s house, outbuildings and two small towers. This collection of buildings forms a front courtyard. Two terraces look out at the garden, which extends harmoniously over 5,000m² around the complex. Your gaze is first drawn to the broad main building, which has a ground floor, a first floor, a loft, a basement and a tiled hip roof with gentle slopes. Its ground floor and first floor have nine bays with many windows, which are fitted with painted wooden louvred shutters. Its walls are rendered and coloured. A vast walled orchard and vegetable patch also belong to the property, on a nearby plot that covers around 3,000m² on lower land in the village, down beside the River Ource. Monk-and-nun tiling caps the walls that enclose them. A central pond and a barn complete this supplementary section.
