Castle Chalon-sur-saone (71)
ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF CHALON-SUR-SAÔNE, THE ELEGANCE OF A 19TH-CENTURY ESTATE Behind a circular main courtyard lined with century-old trees, the Château de la Villeneuve reveals an instantly recognizable silhouette. Two corner turrets, a slate roof?a rarity in the region?and the balance of a symmetrical layout define the identity of this 19th-century bourgeois residence. Connected to a spectacular contemporary orangery that opens onto the grounds, the estate today combines a residence of character, an established hospitality business, and a refined lifestyle?all just a few minutes from Chalon-sur-Saône and the vineyards of the Côte Chalonnaise. 19TH-CENTURY ARCHITECTURE COMPLEMENTED BY A CONTEMPORARY ORANGERY Built at the height of the Industrial Revolution, the Château de la Villeneuve belongs to that generation of bourgeois mansions whose architecture reflected both success and a way of life. Its symmetrical layout, two corner turrets, dormer windows, ridge ironwork, and slate roof create a silhouette that is instantly recognizable in the regional landscape. A rarity in Burgundy, this roof contributes to the estate's unique character and evokes the architectural style of the grand residences of 19th-century notables. Inside, the original features naturally extend this elegance. Wood paneling, moldings, fireplaces, spiral staircases, and antique hardwood floors complement the spacious, light-filled rooms. Every detail seems to have found its perfect place, striking a delicate balance between historic character and contemporary comfort. Extending from the château, the contemporary orangery offers a new perspective on the estate. Spanning nearly 125 m², this vast glass structure interacts with the park through wide openings that blur the boundary between interior and exterior. The 60 m² wooden terrace naturally extends this light-filled reception area, designed to host everything from large family gatherings to moments of relaxation or more intimate receptions. MARGUERITE BOUCICAUT'S LEGACY IN A PRESERVED PARK The history of the Château de la Villeneuve bears the discreet yet essential mark of Marguerite Boucicaut. A native of Chalon-sur-Saône and co-founder of Le Bon Marché in Paris alongside her husband Aristide Boucicaut, she remains one of the most influential figures in 19th-century French philanthropy. It was thanks to the inheritance she left behind that the Charrier-Guérin family was able to acquire the property, permanently embedding the estate in a unique family and heritage history. This legacy continues to shape the identity of the place today. It links the château to a human journey that extends beyond the borders of Burgundy and serves as a reminder of the major role Marguerite Boucicaut played in French social and economic history. Surrounding the mansion, the historic 5,500 m² park provides a setting worthy of this legacy. Organized around a large circular main courtyard, dotted with century-old trees and open vistas, it offers a preserved landscape where greenery graces every view. The seasons are fully expressed here, amid soft shadows, lush foliage, and unobstructed views of the château's facades. This abundance of greenery gives the estate a distinctive atmosphere while maintaining close proximity to the city. A HOSPITABLE DESTINATION IN THE HEART OF THE CÔTE CHALONNAISE The Château de la Villeneuve's location is a major factor in its appeal. Situated on the outskirts of Chalon-sur-Saône, the estate enjoys quick access to shops, services, the train station, and major transportation routes. The A6 highway connects Lyon and Paris, while the vineyards of Mercurey, Rully, and Givry anchor the property in the heart of one of the most sought-after regions of the Côte Chalonnaise. This prime location directly supports the hospitality tradition cultivated over the years. The estate attracts visitors eager to explore Burgundy's wine-growing landscapes, travelers seeking a more intimate getaway, and business professionals passing through the Chalonnais region. Already successfully operating as a bed-and-breakfast?distinguished by the Clef Verte label for its commitment to more responsible tourism?the property currently generates annual revenue of approximately euros100,000 (excluding tax). Its current structure makes significant expansion of this business a realistic prospect. Hosting wellness retreats, expanding the range of accommodations, or creating new experiences centered on the local area all offer opportunities to continue the property's legacy. THE AGENCY'S OPINION The Château de la Villeneuve combines all the elements that define great estates of character: a distinctly recognizable 19th-century bourgeois residence, a contemporary orangery opening onto the grounds, a history intimately linked to Marguerite Boucicaut, a 5,500 m² historic park centered around a remarkable main courtyard, and a hospitality business certified by the Clef Verte program that is already firmly established.

House with terrace Hauts de Bienne (39)
FAMILY HOME IN MOREZ IN THE JURA From the heights of Morez, light accompanies every moment of the day and reveals a landscape of Jura rooftops and hills. This family home in Morez is located in a lively neighbourhood where the centre and shops are within easy walking distance. Behind its solid construction, the spaces and living areas invite shared moments, while the windows frame the mountains in the distance. The terraces naturally extend the house outwards and, on sunny days, become a real living space. Between the tree-lined garden, the panoramic view of the town and the immediate proximity of the Haut Jura landscapes, the address offers a rare balance between urban life and natural horizons. LIVING SPACES OPEN TO THE LIGHT OF THE JURA The house is organised on several levels and reveals a layout designed to accompany the rhythms of family life. From the entrance, the spaces breathe and light flows naturally from one room to another. The living spaces open up generously, offering a warm setting where days begin gently as the first rays of light appear over the Jura. The living room becomes a natural gathering place. The presence of wood, textures and the warmth of the stove create a convivial atmosphere, perfect for winter evenings or moments shared after a day spent in the mountains. The fully equipped kitchen extends this dynamic. The bedrooms are harmoniously distributed throughout the house. Each one has its own place, offering spaces conducive to rest, work or reading. The house thus accommodates the different rhythms of family life, between moments spent together and more personal moments. The current layout of the house also opens the way for other uses. In particular, it allows for the creation of a separate studio for rental. The configuration could also lend itself to a complete shared accommodation project, meeting the rental demand driven by the many students in the area. This interesting modularity allows for several ways of living in or enhancing the property over time. TERRACES OPENING OUT ONTO THE CITY AND THE HILLS Outside, the house extends onto large terraces that naturally complement the living areas. When the weather is fine, these spaces become an extension of everyday life. The eye wanders freely over the city's rooftops and reaches the gentle lines of the Jura mountains. Mornings here have a special flavour. Light gradually fills the terraces, inviting you to take the time to enjoy a coffee while admiring the landscape. Throughout the day, the different exposures accompany moments of life, from outdoor meals to sun-drenched moments of rest. The tree-lined garden provides additional breathing space. It's easy to imagine a vegetable garden, children playing or summer evenings with friends. The whole creates a simple, lively setting where indoors and outdoors interact naturally throughout the seasons. MOREZ AND THE ENERGY OF THE HAUT JURA Located in the heart of Morez, the house is part of a town shaped by the history of eyewear manufacturing and the energy of the surrounding mountains. The town centre is a hub of daily life, with shops, schools and places to live that set the pace for each day. The Jura landscape surrounds the town and accompanies its inhabitants throughout the year. In winter, the Haut Jura resorts attract lovers of skiing and the great outdoors. When the warm weather returns, the hiking trails and forests invite you to rediscover the surrounding nature. The proximity of Les Rousses and the Swiss border also opens the door to a wider territory, combining nature, mobility and economic dynamism. The house thus finds its place in a lively environment where a mountain lifestyle is cultivated, between activity and contemplation. AGENCY OPINION What we perceive here is the balance of the place. A generous, solid house, oriented towards light and the landscape. The terraces opening onto the town and the hills offer a unique perspective on Morez and the Jura. The immediate proximity of the centre adds to the comfort of everyday life, while the mountains remain ever-present on the horizon. A lively address, capable of accommodating family life as well as a residential project open to the wider area.

Castle Boyer (71)
A RESTORED ESTATE WITH GUEST ROOMS IN SOUTHERN BURGUNDY Less than 3 minutes from Tournus, the Château de Pymont has been elegantly reborn following a complete restoration carried out between 2020 and 2022. Rebuilt in the 17th century on the foundations of a medieval residence and later expanded in the 19th century, this estate offers nearly 700 m² of living space in the heart of a park spanning more than four hectares, crisscrossed by two streams. Nine bedrooms and suites, numerous outbuildings, and an already well-established bed-and-breakfast operation now come together to create a place where heritage, nature, and hospitality blend seamlessly. A HERITAGE RENAISSANCE DRIVEN BY PASSION Above all, the Château de Pymont tells a story of rebirth. Behind its facades?rebuilt in the 17th century on the ruins of an ancient medieval residence and later extended with an elegant neo-Gothic wing in the 19th century?lies a recent history that is equally remarkable. When the current owners first stepped through its doors in 2019, the estate bore deep signs of the passage of time. Thus began a restoration project of rare scope. The restoration carried out between 2020 and 2022 has now resulted in an estate whose essential elements have been restored, offering a level of comfort rarely found in heritage properties of this scale. The antique hardwood floors, wood paneling, ornate ceilings, stone staircases, and spacious rooms blend naturally with efficient heating, meticulous insulation, and discreetly integrated modern amenities. The château has thus returned to its original purpose: that of a living home, open to the next generation, where its heritage continues to write its story without ever becoming stagnant. NATURE AND TRAVEL CREATE A UNIQUE ATMOSPHERE The park, spanning more than four hectares, extends this sense of harmony. The Natouze River feeds a central pond, around which paths, century-old trees, and clearings are arranged, inviting visitors to take a stroll. As the seasons change, light filters through the foliage, reflects off the water, and guides the eye toward the magnificently restored dovecote. Stone bridges and outbuildings dot this bucolic landscape. Here, nature plays a central role in the estate's identity. Inside, this character continues with the same consistency. The living rooms, libraries, and nine guest rooms and suites offer a unique atmosphere where antiques, works of art, and objects brought back from numerous travels tell a personal story. Asian furniture, antique doors, repurposed architectural elements, and curiosities from afar come together to create a cultured and warm environment. More than just decoration, it is a true collection of mementos that accompanies each space and gives the château a rare identity. This atmosphere has naturally charmed the travelers welcomed since 2022 as part of a bed-and-breakfast operation that is now well-established. It also offers a future owner the opportunity to immediately take over an established business while enjoying a fully restored estate, thereby avoiding the need for additional construction work. AN ESTATE WITH MANY POSSIBILITIES Today, the Château de Pymont combines the charm of a historic residence with the freedom of an estate offering a wealth of possibilities. The numerous outbuildings, vaulted cellar, workshops, convertible attics, and spacious annexes offer varied and harmonious potential for development without disrupting the site's balance. Whether as a family residence, a reception house, a hospitality estate, or a continuation of the existing tourism business, every project finds a ready-to-use setting here. Its location further enhances this uniqueness. Located in close proximity to highway access points and the Mâconnais TGV station, and just a few hours from Geneva, Paris, or London, the estate combines rare heritage with European accessibility. The landscapes of Southern Burgundy, the region's rich culinary traditions, the vineyards, charming villages, and cultural itineraries naturally enhance the experience of the place. More than just a property, Château de Pymont offers the opportunity to continue the thread of a history already deeply rooted in the land. It appeals to buyers seeking a living heritage?immediately habitable?that balances quality of life, accessibility, and the potential to host guests. THE AGENCY'S OPINION We are deeply moved by this residence, which tells a story that goes far beyond its architecture. Château de Pymont is one of those places whose value lies as much in its history as in the emotion it evokes. Its exemplary restoration, the atmosphere created by its owners, the quality of its grounds, and its already well-established bed-and-breakfast business come together to form a rare ensemble, designed for those seeking a living heritage?ready to be lived in, passed down, and shared.

The mature trees, Medici sculptures, and carefully designed paths create an atmosphere that is both rural and urban. Here, the heart of the city is never far away, but nature reclaims its rights, offering a rare setting where fresh air and elegance come together. Chaumont and Haute-Marne Chaumont, a town steeped in history with a rich heritage, is best explored on foot: ancient streets, a basilica, museums, and markets bring daily life to life. All around, Haute-Marne unfolds a mosaic of forests, lakes, and fortified villages. Thirty minutes away, Langres stands with its ramparts, while the vineyards of Monsaugeonnais and the large lakes invite you to take walks and enjoy water sports. The location is strategic: close to major highways and the train station connecting Paris, Dijon, and Nancy, the house offers the perfect balance between accessibility and tranquility. A bourgeois residence in Haute-Marne that allows you to enjoy the charm of a small town while remaining connected to major cultural centers. Agency opinion This property illustrates the elegance of an era when architecture was in harmony with the landscape. It will appeal to a family looking for space and character, a couple seeking a second home, or a high-end hospitality project. Its respectful renovation, its belvedere garden, and its history linked to the great glove-making tradition of Chaumont make it a unique heritage property. More than a house, it is a signature, an address that spans generations.

Inside, the materials interact. Old hardwood floors, terracotta tiles, beams, and generous ceiling heights create an atmosphere where each space seems to extend a memory. The floor-to-ceiling windows allow light to flow from east to west, accompanying the rhythms of the day. A HOME FOR LIVING AND SHARING The rooms flow seamlessly around a spacious living area, designed to welcome guests. The layout invites both gathering and privacy, with living rooms, bedrooms, and more intimate spaces. In the billiard room, a unique feature catches the eye and seems to freeze time: a rare 18th-century frieze, of which only a few examples remain in the world, unfolds its patterns with delicacy. It lends this space an almost museum-like quality, without disrupting the home's lively harmony. A bedroom on the ground floor extends this sense of immediate comfort, while the upper floors suggest multiple uses, ranging from family life to entertaining. Set apart, the spaces dedicated to well-being extend the experience. A heated indoor pool occupies a separate area, accompanied by a sauna and a summer kitchen that opens onto the stone terrace. Here, the seasons are experienced differently, in a gentle continuity between indoors and outdoors. A LIVING PARK, BETWEEN BREATHING SPACE AND ROOTS The nearly one-hectare lot unfolds with simplicity. Centuries-old trees create zones of shade and light, punctuated by an ornamental pond and open vistas. The orchard and grassy areas complement a lifestyle oriented toward the outdoors, balancing contemplation with daily living. Just minutes from amenities and major thoroughfares, the property retains a sense of seclusion, maintaining just the right distance from the world. It appeals to those seeking a place to call home as much as a place to envision their future, striking a balance between deep roots and a sense of freedom. AGENCY'S OPINION This priory house combines history and quality of life in a rare balance. The use of stone, the spacious volumes, and certain unique decorative elements come together to create a place designed to endure, welcome, and pass on a legacy.

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 Anrosey (52)
A MANOR HOUSE IN HAUTE-MARNE Far from the hustle and bustle of daily life, certain estates seem to have always belonged there. La Perle d'Anrosey is part of this subtle interplay between architecture and landscape. Behind its 18th-century facades, stone stands alongside towering trees, springs feed the pond, and the outbuildings extend the main house. More than just a property, this charming estate is a place of hospitality where space, time, and nature come together in a balance that has become truly precious. Even today, this story continues through a bed-and-breakfast that welcomes travelers in a setting that has remained true to its identity. A MANOR HOUSE DESIGNED FOR HOSPITALITY The stone facades emerge from behind the foliage, bathed in light that reveals every contour, every material, and every detail of this well-preserved architecture. Here, the landscape does not merely serve as a backdrop to the house; it is an extension of it. Built in the 18th century, this mansion offers nearly 390 m² of living space. The living areas are distributed between the ground floor and the first floor, while a spacious basement and attic harmoniously complete the ensemble. The antique hardwood floors complement the stone flooring, the wood paneling accentuates the high ceilings, and the fireplaces serve as a reminder that this home was always designed for entertaining. The reception areas foster a warm atmosphere where meals linger and gatherings flow naturally. Set slightly apart, the seven bedrooms offer comfort ideal for extended stays, with several featuring their own private bathrooms. Today, these spaces bring to life a well-regarded bed-and-breakfast operation, welcoming guests who appreciate the charm of historic architecture and the expansive landscapes of southern Haute-Marne. This spirit of hospitality seems to flow naturally here, driven as much by the spaciousness of the rooms as by the soul of the place. The generously sized kitchen complements this tradition of sharing, where every stay revolves around large, convivial meals and simple, unhurried moments. The property has retained its authenticity while incorporating the necessary updates for contemporary living, making it suitable for continuing the current business or for envisioning a new life project. A CHARACTERFUL ESTATE IN HAUTE-MARNE Surrounding the house, more than two hectares form a vibrant landscape. Centuries-old trees frame the horizon, the orchard lines the park's paths, and the lawns invite the Haut-Marne countryside right into the estate. The pond, fed by the property's natural springs, adds a subtle touch of movement to this setting, where water has long held a special place. Two wells still in use also bear witness to this special relationship between the house and its surroundings. The outbuildings naturally expand the possibilities of the site. The vast barn, measuring approximately 300 m², part of which already serves as a reception hall, supports the estate's hospitality activities today while hinting at other potential uses. The dovecote, converted into a summer bedroom, the workshop, the wine cellar, and the attic further enrich this particularly cohesive architectural heritage. Each building interacts with the others, like chapters of a single story where heritage, nature, and hospitality intertwine effortlessly. A TRADITION OF HOSPITALITY TO CARRY ON La Perle d'Anrosey possesses that unique quality that allows everyone to freely envision their own future here.

Located near the Forêts National Park, hiking trails, charming villages, and the unspoiled landscapes of southern Haute-Marne, the property is set in a region where natural heritage intertwines with history.
