Property with garden Besançon (25)
MANOR HOUSE ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BESANÇON Just a few minutes from Besançon, this historic property reveals behind its walls a rare ensemble comprising a 19th-century mansion, a renovated guest house, and a second detached house waiting to be reimagined. Set within over two hectares of wooded grounds, the stone facades, gravel paths, and lush vegetation create a place filled with tranquility, light, and the promise of a legacy. A WALLED PROPERTY ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BESANÇON From the cul-de-sac, the property appears discreetly behind its gates and century-old trees. The property immediately evokes a sense of space rarely found in the Greater Besançon area, nestled between unspoiled countryside and quick access to shops, schools, and major thoroughfares. The main house, built in the late 19th century, stands alongside a fully renovated guest house and a second detached building currently used for storage. The layout of the estate allows for the possibility of an extended family life, spaces for entertaining, or additional uses over time. Surrounding the buildings, the landscaped grounds unfold with gentle slopes, hedges, mature trees, and views of the surrounding nature. A deeply residential setting, designed to be lived in as much as to be enjoyed. INTERIORS BLENDING OLD-WORLD ELEGANCE WITH MODERN COMFORT The main house offers approximately 190 m² spread over three levels. The spaces retain the spirit of old bourgeois mansions: high ceilings, moldings, wood paneling, wall niches, solid hardwood floors, and a wooden staircase connecting the floors. Light floods the reception rooms and living areas, which open onto the greenery and surrounding natural landscapes. The separate kitchen, centered around a central island and marble countertops, extends this atmosphere of a family home lived in day to day. The original materials interact with more contemporary elements that have been discreetly integrated. Geothermal heating, double-glazed aluminum window frames, and technical systems provide a modern take on comfort without altering the home's identity. In addition, the guest house features a separate space spread over two levels, while the garages, carports, cellars, and workshops offer a multitude of possibilities. A PLACE TO LIVE, ENTERTAIN, AND GROW The uniqueness of this property lies as much in its location as in its layout. Few estates offer more than two hectares of private land just minutes from Besançon and the Auxons TGV station. The second detached house naturally opens the door to various projects: a family guesthouse, a professional space, a caretaker's home, or a future additional residence after renovation. The property maintains a sense of privacy without isolation, striking a particularly sought-after balance between urban life and the tranquility of nature. A property designed for those seeking more than just a house: a place to call home for the long term. AGENCY'S OPINION This property has a unique presence in the Besançon landscape. The grounds, the various buildings, and the architecture of the main house form a rare ensemble, capable of accommodating both a vibrant family life and a broader legacy project.

Contemporary apartment Besançon (25)
Haussmann-style apartment in Besançon Hidden from view at the back of an 18th-century mansion, this Haussmann-style apartment has a rare presence. Here, the city center feels intimate, almost hushed. The rooms are impressive without being overwhelming, the high ceilings set the tone, and the old parquet floors and fireplaces recall a time when architecture was as much about status as it was about lifestyle. Completely redesigned to meet contemporary needs, this space combines the restrained splendor of the past with the comfort of a high-quality renovation. An apartment with character, for those looking for more than just an address: a living experience. An interior shaped by history The apartment is organized as a series of living rooms, designed for both entertaining and privacy. The spacious and structured living areas offer a clear interpretation of the volumes, where each perspective finds its breathing space. The old floors, moldings, woodwork, and fireplaces interact with a contemporary, precise, and never ostentatious design. Natural light glides along the walls, highlighting architectural details and accompanying the rhythm of the day. Here, nothing is decorative by chance: each element contributes to a solemn yet warm atmosphere, where one can imagine both large gatherings and the calm of a chosen daily life. In the more intimate spaces, the bedrooms extend this feeling of seclusion and serenity. The flow of movement is fluid, designed for comfortable, uninterrupted living. The fully equipped kitchen has a modern, understated style that blends perfectly with the spirit of the place. A rare balance between heritage and practicality, without compromise. The backyard as a refuge Located at the back of the courtyard, the apartment enjoys a unique location: protected from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet anchored in its lively heart. This backyard, characteristic of Besançon's mansions, creates a precious distance from the street. Here, time is perceived differently, slower, more hushed. The views open onto the surrounding architecture and the Citadel, a discreet but constant reminder of the history of the place. Here, there is no spectacular garden, but a rare feeling of seclusion in the city center: that of living in a preserved space, originally designed to last. This location reinforces the feeling of exclusivity. The apartment does not reveal itself immediately; it is something to be discovered. This is a quality that has become precious, almost impossible to find, in a dense urban fabric. A world within reach Living here means embracing a demanding urban lifestyle. The historic center of Besançon unfolds all around, with its shops, cultural venues, squares, and institutions. The neighborhood offers a complete picture of the city: dynamic, rich in heritage, and deeply inhabited. Nearby, walks, cultural spaces, and places to live make for a fluid, unrestricted daily life. The Citadel, the quays, and the surrounding hills remind us that nature is never far away, even in the heart of the city. This area appeals to clients who are sensitive to history, architecture, and a certain idea of urban comfort: cultured, discreet, deeply rooted in its environment. The agency's opinion: This apartment perfectly embodies what we look for at Arrière-Cour: a confidential address, remarkable architecture, and a subtle balance between heritage and modernity. Its location in the rear courtyard of an 18th-century mansion makes it a rare find on the Besançon market. It is ideal for buyers looking for a property with character, steeped in history, but designed for a demanding contemporary lifestyle. A place of distinction, without ostentation. Condominiums of 30 units. Annual expenses : 4500 euros.

Property Château-Chalon (39)
MANOR HOUSE IN THE VOITEUR VINEYARD Set in the rolling landscape of the Jura, this former winemaker's home features stone facades amidst a wooded park crisscrossed by pastoral paths and heirloom rosebushes. Just a short walk from the center of Voiteur, the property combines the warmth of a family home with the charm of a country estate that embraces the changing seasons, the vineyards, and large gatherings. A FAMILY HOME IN THE HEART OF THE JURA VINEYARDS From the road to Lons-le-Saunier, the property comes into view behind the trees and hedges that gently outline the park. The eye takes in a stone house built in the late 19th century, anchored in the Voiteur landscape with simplicity and presence. All around, nearly a hectare of land creates a deeply vibrant environment. A rose garden, an orchard, century-old trees, and winding paths foster an almost literary atmosphere, where the seasons seem to slow the pace of daily life. The village is within walking distance, while the rolling hills of the Jura vineyards extend the view toward Château-Chalon and the wine routes.

Castle Bourg-en-Bresse (01)
A CHATEAU AND ITS REMARKABLE PARK ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BOURG-EN-BRESSE In Viriat, just a few minutes from Bourg-en-Bresse, this property is nestled within one of the region's most beautiful wooded parks. Over the centuries, this former 17th-century farmhouse has evolved into a charming château with exceptional spaciousness, now extended by a contemporary orangery that opens wide onto the landscape. With over 700 m² of living space, several double-height living rooms, eight bedrooms, and vast reception areas, the estate offers a lifestyle centered on light, nature, and family gatherings. A swimming pool, pond, tennis court, terraces, and outbuildings enhance this sense of space and openness within more than four acres of landscaped grounds. A REMARKABLE PARK ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF THE CITY The park is one of the property's most distinctive features. Upon entering, the view opens up to centuries-old trees, expansive lawns, and rare species planted over time by a former owner who was a botanist. Giant sequoias, Atlas cedars, remarkable maples, magnolias, and linden trees compose a living landscape that evolves with the seasons. The estate offers a rare sense of depth and tranquility while remaining in close proximity to Bourg-en-Bresse and major thoroughfares. Surrounding the château, the stone terraces, pond, fountain, swimming pool, and tennis court naturally extend the living spaces outward. Here, the park does not merely accompany the residence?it becomes its very soul. SPACIOUS ROOMS FILLED WITH LIGHT With over 700 m² of living space spread across three levels, the château features particularly generous rooms while maintaining a seamless flow of movement. The living rooms follow one another in a warm atmosphere where light highlights the historic materials: stone, wood paneling, exposed beams, and antique flagstone and hardwood floors. Each era has left its mark with consistency. Several extensions inspired by the architecture of 18th- and 19th-century châteaux were added to the original 17th-century farmhouse before a contemporary orangery created a spectacular opening onto the park. The large reception rooms alternate with more intimate spaces dedicated to reading, relaxation, or family life. Eight bedrooms and several suites provide a discreet and elegant setting to welcome family and guests. A PROPERTY FOR ENTERTAINING, GATHERING, AND PASSING ON The estate strikes a rare balance between grandeur and the simple pleasures of life. The spacious layout allows for large family gatherings, extended stays, or weekend entertaining without ever losing the property's intimacy. The outbuildings?including the former stable converted into a garage and wine cellar?as well as the spaces still available for conversion offer various possibilities for future development, whether for hosting guests or as a vacation home. The proximity to the A40 highway, the Bourg-en-Bresse TGV station, and connections to Lyon or Geneva further enhances this convenience, making it ideal for both a primary and secondary residence. Yet the château retains that precious sense of being in a world of its own?a place deeply imbued with trees, the seasons, and the passage of time. AGENCY'S OPINION What immediately strikes one here is the balance between the château's scale and the expanse of the grounds. Rarely does a property manage to offer so much space while maintaining such a gentle and natural atmosphere. The trees, the light, and the views give the estate a quiet, almost timeless presence, just minutes from the city. BEHIND THE CENTURY-OLD TREES, A PROPERTY OF RARE PROPORTIONS

Property with pool Malbouhans (70)
MASTER HOUSE WITH GITE AND POND IN LUREAt the bend of a leafy path, a domain reveals itself in muffled silence. Surrounded by the forest, bathed in light, and carrying a long industrial history that has become familial, La Saulnaire embodies a promise of the future rooted in stone. Once a glassworks, now a character home with a gîte, apartments, outbuildings, and land, it offers a rare configuration, ready to welcome the most sensitive projects. Here, rural charm is not just an image, but a tangible daily reality: weathered stones, ancient beams, generous volumes, and open views over more than five hectares of nature. Below, a spring irrigates the park, a fountain bubbles, terraces are staggered, and two pools extend the bright hours. A place to live, to pass on, to inhabit according to one's own contours.AN INTERIOR OF CHARACTER, BETWEEN MEMORY AND MODULARITYThe history of the place is read in its details: exposed beams, cathedral volumes, old woodwork, and welcoming fireplaces punctuate the rooms with a warm atmosphere. Each space seems to have found its place without ever losing sight of the essential: comfort and flexibility of use. This master house unfolds over three levels offering a fluid flow designed to accommodate rhythms of life, seasons, and silence. The autonomous gîte features a large cathedral living room and three bedrooms, while the two apartments harmoniously complete the offer, each with their two bedrooms and bright living areas. In total, four kitchens provide different atmospheres, from rustic to contemporary. Everything has been designed to adapt to plural lifestyles: extended family living, main residence with rental income, tourist or event hosting.A VIBRANT EXTERIOR, BETWEEN OPEN SPACES AND ELEMENTSHere, nature is not a backdrop; it is a partner. Over nearly six hectares, the domain combines wooded park, clearings, water points, and meadows suitable for equestrian hosting. A natural spring supplies the whole, and the former glassworks basin, now a pond, rhythms the seasons and reflections. Seven terraces adorn the facades and accommodate different uses: summer meals, contemplation, sunbathing or shade depending on the hours. Two outdoor pools, discreetly positioned, add to the sense of freedom. Materials such as stone, wood, and brick anchor the whole in the landscape without constraining it. Here, every nook tells of a potential use, a scene of life in the making.A TERRITORY BETWEEN INDUSTRIAL MEMORY AND PRESERVED NATURESet back, between Lure and Belfort, the domain benefits from a chosen isolation without renouncing accessibility: TGV station, highway, and airport are all less than 1 hour and 30 minutes away. The region, rich in natural and cultural heritage, offers varied escapes: walks in the Mille Étangs, hikes at the Ballon d'Alsace, swims at Malsaucy, visits to the Chapelle de Ronchamp, and the Golf de Luxeuil is just a few kilometers away, with well-developed equestrian infrastructures. This discreet territory today attracts clientele in search of roots, breathing space, but also meaning. The Domaine de La Saulnaire, with its generous volumes and atypical configuration, fits in seamlessly.AGENCY'S OPINIONThis property with a gîte and pond, ideally located in Lure, is an exceptional property that will appeal to families in search of an inspired place, tourism professionals, or investors sensitive to authenticity. Its modularity, perfect maintenance, and existing infrastructures allow for immediate exploitation without any work needed. Nestled in a bucolic environment, rare for its extent, it skillfully combines heritage, comfort, and prospects.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Montbeliard (25)
18TH-CENTURY HOUSE IN MONTBÉLIARD Just a short walk from Montbéliard's historic center, this historic local landmark offers a unique living experience, blending architectural heritage with the tranquility of nature. Behind its stone façade, the house offers nearly 320 m² of space organized around a spacious main duplex, several independent areas, and a studio that opens widely onto the garden and the Allan River. Eighteenth-century hardwood floors, a wrought-iron staircase, exposed brick walls, and a mezzanine create an artistic and lived-in atmosphere. The layout allows for various uses: a family home, a living space with a private practice, or an investment property combining residence and rental income. A HOME FILLED WITH LIGHT AND MATERIALS A former iconic restaurant reinvented by an architect in the early 2000s, the property retains the soul of the old buildings while making room for contemporary uses. From the moment you enter, the materials tell the story of the place: weathered wood, wrought ironwork, old bricks, exposed beams, and varying floor levels naturally guide the flow of the interior. The main duplex occupies the upper floors of the house. The living room, featuring old solid hardwood floors, opens onto a mezzanine lined with exposed brick. Further on, the separate kitchen and dining room extend this feeling of an urban family home. The master suite, set back from the main living area, features its own bathroom with a shower and bathtub. The spaces suggest several ways to live here: an office, an extra bedroom, a library, or an inspiring workspace. A GARDEN BY THE WATER IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN At the rear, the house takes on a different rhythm. The glass-roofed studio on the garden level opens directly onto the outdoors and the banks of the Allan. This bright space evokes as much an artist's studio as a future reception area, a separate office, or a summer kitchen facing the garden. The 531 m² wooded lot discreetly accompanies the house all the way to the water. The presence of nature, rare in this central area of Montbéliard, creates a particularly sought-after contrast: living in the city while maintaining a constant connection with nature and water. The stone terrace naturally extends the living spaces on sunny days, in an intimate and peaceful atmosphere. A PROPERTY TO LIVE IN, PASS ON, OR REIMAGINE The property also includes two independent furnished apartments as well as an attic studio. These spaces allow for flexible use, whether for supplemental income, hosting family, or professional activities. One duplex apartment is currently rented, while a second unit offers the opportunity to be updated to suit the future owner's preferences. The cellars, ancillary spaces, and the former warehouse facing the street all contribute to the property's vast potential for development. Located in close proximity to shops, schools, and quick access to Belfort, Mulhouse, or Switzerland, this home appeals equally to heritage enthusiasts and those seeking a hybrid, vibrant, and inspiring space. AGENCY REVIEW This property possesses a rare identity in Montbéliard: that of an old house imbued with a distinct architectural character, open to nature, and designed to accommodate diverse lifestyles. Its direct connection to the Allan River, its adaptable spaces, and its artistic atmosphere combine to create a truly unique setting.

Property with pool and garden Bourg-en-Bresse (01)
A SECLUDED CHATEAU IN BOURG-EN-BRESSE In Bourg-en-Bresse, a tree-lined driveway leads to a 17th-century chateau. Set back from the street and surrounded by over 2 hectares of land, the property offers 372 m² of living space, two spacious open-plan living rooms, six bedrooms, and several ancillary spaces, including two independent apartments. Surrounding the property is a flat park planted with mature trees, a domed swimming pool, and a complex of outbuildings. The property combines immediate residential use with potential for transformation. A CHÂTEAU, BETWEEN A PRIVATE DRIVEWAY AND CROSSING COURTYARDS The private driveway, lined with tall trees, gradually screens the property from the street and creates an initial distance from the urban rhythm. The gate marks the entrance, then the gravel path leads to an open courtyard, now used to accommodate several vehicles during family gatherings or extended stays. The château, built starting in 1378 and remodeled in the 17th century, features inscribed facades, distinctive roofs, and a listed central vestibule that immediately defines the space. Upon entering, the eye travels through the building from one end to the other and reaches a second park at the rear, used as an outdoor reception area on sunny days. The stone staircase, with its ornate wrought-iron railing, facilitates daily movement between the levels and becomes a constant point of reference in the life of the house. The ground-floor rooms now serve as reception areas, with two spacious living rooms used for large gatherings, extended evenings, or quieter moments during the day. The east- and west-facing windows allow one to follow the rhythm of the day, from breakfast on the garden side to extended late afternoons on the courtyard side. LIVING SPACES AT THE HEART OF TWO WOODED PARKS, RIGHT IN THE CITY From the living rooms, the view sweeps across the property, placing the château at the center of two distinct parks that flank it on either side. To the west, a first flat park of approximately 8,500 m² extends directly from the living areas and accommodates the most spontaneous activities?outdoor meals, games, and free movement?under the shade of ancient trees, including a sequoia planted over 150 years ago. This space is immediately accessible and supports daily outdoor living. To the east, the sequence begins with a more structured courtyard, organized around a fountain, a pond, and an in-ground pool protected by a dome?used for much of the year?and then extends toward a second, flatter park of over 6,000 m², which is more open and provides an additional, more secluded space to breathe. The château is thus situated between these two landscape entities, one oriented toward immediate living, the other toward a broader openness. In the immediate vicinity, the outbuildings cover over 900 m² of floor space across two levels, with a restored roof structure and a new roof, and now house storage, a workshop, and parking. BETWEEN INDEPENDENT SPACES AND FUTURE PROJECTS The castle, on a human scale, now offers 372 m² of living space spread over two levels, with a layout designed for daily use. The upper floor features six bedrooms, suitable for family life or hosting guests for extended stays, with three bathrooms already in place. A built-in library provides a quiet retreat, while the layout ensures privacy for everyone during longer stays. The open, fully equipped kitchen is supported by a pantry and a laundry room located on the ground floor. Two independent apartments, measuring 50 m² and 40 m², allow for hosting guests or providing separate living quarters, depending on the time of year. The fully fenced property, spanning over 20,000 m², also includes enclosed garages and numerous outdoor parking spaces, making it easy to accommodate visitors. The proposed work is part of a plan for gradual development, suitable for a second home, a gathering place, or business development. AGENCY'S OPINION This château occupies a unique position in Bourg-en-Bresse, with an urban address yet a sense of seclusion created by the driveway, walls, and building volumes. The listed vestibule sets the tone from the moment you enter and provides a lasting framework for the experience of the place. The grounds and outbuildings create a second layer of interpretation, oriented toward future development and potential uses. The property already functions as a residence, while retaining a genuine capacity for transformation.
