Castle Le Mans (72)
15 kilometres from Le Mans, on over a little less than 15 hectares, a Neo-Gothic chateau, its outbuildings and English-style grounds, listed as Historical Monuments. Edified on the slope of a hill, Le Mans extends to the north of the property, past the woods. Behind tall pillars, the property is accessible via a tarmac driveway bordered by tall trees and flanked by an entrance pavilion, which houses the caretaker’s residence. Advancing through the landscaped grounds provides views, on one side, of the chateau’s symmetrical northern façade. Arriving at the top of the hill, several outbuildings constructed in the 19th century can be seen set back from the chateau. They specifically include the orangery, today converted into a guesthouse, which faces the chateau’s southern façade on the other side of the courtyard. To the west, at a distance from the buildings, the grassy grounds lead to a pond below, which reflects the tall trees’ foliage. Following on from there, the walls of the former vegetable garden close the property off from the outside. The chateau, listed as a historical monument, was edified in 1844 in a Neo-Gothic style. As for the grounds, they are also listed as a historical monument and were designed in 1877. Their landscaped composition, emblematic of the passion for botany in the 19th century, is the result of the close collaboration between an industrialist from Sarthe and Edouard André, an internationally renowned landscape architect, who designed Paris’s Buttes-Chaumont Park. The dwelling’s interior presents décor inspired from the 18th century, completed with Art Deco details.

Mill Dijon (21)
In the Ouche valley, 20 minutes from Dijon, a former mill transformed into a house, with its pool and a 1.4-hectare park. Dated '1790' on a limestone stone, the mill is featured on the Cassini map. It was acquired in 1834 by the Côte-d'Or prefecture to control the water intake supplying the Burgundy Canal at section 38. Purchased by a private occupant in 1984, in a state of ruin, it was fully reconstructed between 1986 and 1989 using the original mill stones, in a contemporary interpretation of Burgundian rural architecture. Two volumes, built in an L-shape plan, made of dressed stone, topped with two-sided roofs of flat tiles, form a living space of approximately 420 m². A turret with a pavilion roof connects them. To the north, a drive-through gate leads to a courtyard where the two independent entrances and garages are organized. Once past the gate, the road immediately fades behind the trees and the murmur of water. The property opens to the south, sheltered from any overlook: the covered terrace, which runs along the facade, extends into the park planted with centenary trees, bordered by the Ouche. To the southwest, the river divides into two arms, forming an island of 4,630 m² accessible by a bridge. The waterfall to the northwest, a remnant of the mill's mechanism, animates the site. The park features a pool of 12 m × 6 m, with its shelter of glazed tiles in polychromatic geometric patterns in the Burgundian tradition, with exposed timber framing, as well as an open barn of about 60 m², with a roof of glazed tiles.This description has been automatically translated from French.

House La Charité-sur-Loire (58)
Two hours from Paris, in Burgundy, by the royal river, a master house from the Enlightenment century. Approaching the residence, large expanses of grass planted with tall trees and punctuated by benches face the river and the city walls. The road that leads to the property is now closed to vehicles, ensuring an environment of rare calm in an urban setting. A white-painted wooden gate opens onto a courtyard rich with flowering plants of various species. At the back of the house, to the south, a large Burgundy stone terrace is bordered by lush vegetation. From there, a stone wall runs along a path and leads to an old intricately carved wooden door that provides access to the street leading to the bridge that crosses the Loire. Built in 1729 and raised to three levels – a garden level and two floors – the master house has had several occupants, including the former wife of Gaston Defferre, who loved to admire the Loire from her bedroom. At the front of the dwelling, a small intricately carved wooden terrace, which reveals various floral bouquets below, overlooks the courtyard by a staircase and runs along the first floor, which benefits from a view of the river. The main façade is animated by numerous openings, mostly adorned with small-paned windows. The main entrance, accessible from the courtyard by the wooden staircase, is secured by a French door topped with a glazed transom. The building is topped with a Mansard roof, with three slopes each formed by two pitches. The brisis is pierced by dormers with pediments typical of the 18th century. The white-painted shutters and the frames of the openings, made of limestone ashlar, are highlighted by the recently redone natural rectangular slates that make up the covering.

Farmhouse Luxeuil-les-Bains (70)
Two farmhouses from the 18th and 19th centuries and a converted bakehouse, between the towns of Luxeuil-les-Bains and Le Val-d'Ajol in France’s beautiful Vosges Saônoises area. A driveway leads from a country lane in the hamlet to a central court surrounded by the property's three buildings: two former farmhouses, which date back to 1764 and 1834 respectively, and a former bakehouse, which has been converted into a dwelling. The elevations are made of grey and red sandstone. Ashlar forms the door and window surrounds. The small-paned windows have wooden frames and double glazing.

Farmhouse Pont de Montvert - Sud Mont Lozère (48)
An old farm and its verdant surroundings on the Mont-Lozère plateau crossed by countless rivers . Formerly part of a priory dating back to the 14th century, the farm has preserved several original stone features. During the Wars of Religion from the 16th to the 18th century, this major resistance site welcomed many Huguenots in the strongly Protestant region. They found refuge on these heights to organise their defence, their worship or their escape without denying their faith, before the great and often definitive departure for Geneva. At the beginning of the 20th century, the last thatched roofs in the region disappeared, as a result of various fires or the abandonment of the countryside in favour of the city and its more modern comforts. A few ruins remain in the vicinity and bear witness to a past that is only waiting to rise from its ashes. Some of these remnants were rebuilt in the 1960s and roofed with slate tiles by people who were passionate about rural architecture and by the Cévennes National Park, which developed the lodgings as gîtes (guest houses). The property is one of three seasonally used houses in a small hamlet that are still standing, well apart from each other. Owing to its remoteness and its official protection as a national park, the area has been preserved, as its inhabitants were not encouraged to give in to modern materials that did not form part of the local culture. Not only the character and type of the buildings have been protected, but also the landscape, which has been given sustained attention so that no visual disturbance affects the well-being of the inhabitants, who still live in harmony with their environment. A few flocks of sheep and cattle are a reminder of the building's farming origins, but they are kept well away by a stream and a small footpath, themselves hidden by a hedge. On the other side of the property, a river, at once watercourse and private natural pool, forms several small waterfalls and leisurely water features, where one can relax without attracting attention, in winter as in summer.

House Saint-Georges-d'Oléron (17)
In Saint-Georges-d’Oléron, a holiday home in the midst of a pine forest, close to the Chaucre point. The property occupies a wooded area whose natural relief has been largely preserved. From the road, a pathway crosses the vegetation before reaching a parking area located in the middle of the lot. From there, several pathways serve the various buildings. Built in the late 1980s, the main house, two stories high, is situated at a slight elevation on the site. Its placement takes advantage of the topography of the site and creates several outdoor spaces at different levels. The plastered facades are topped with a gabled roof covered with canal tiles. Several terraces extend the living spaces. An independent apartment completes the ensemble.This description has been automatically translated from French.

House with pool Angouleme (16)
In Charente, at the gates of Angoulême, a Charente residence from the 19th century, its outbuildings, and its swimming pool on 3 hectares of wooded land. The building complex is organized according to the traditional layout of old Charente farms: a main living building, extended and framed by outbuildings forming a semi-closed courtyard in a U-shape. The main house, built of rendered stone, features a sober architecture topped with a hip roof, inspired by rural styles. The arrangement of the façade, punctuated by regular openings, reflects a pursuit of balance rather than grandeur. The discreet but structuring window frames emphasize the rigor of the composition. The roof of the outbuildings, with its two slopes, follows the local tradition, with a moderate pitch suited to the region's climate. The clear and readable volumes testify to a construction designed to last, where each element serves a specific function. On either side, the outbuildings—barns, stables, and annexes—exhibit a more rugged form. Their generous proportions, large openings, and frameworks reflect their original agricultural purpose. The U-shape layout is not merely functional: it creates a protected inner courtyard that is almost intimate, sheltered from prying eyes. Thus, the whole forms a small coherent and hierarchical territory in itself, where living and working once coexisted in harmony.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Property Saint-Malo (35)
In Saint-Malo, in a residential area, facing the sea, a villa from the early 20th century and its walled garden. The property is enclosed by walls and faces east-west. To the east, on the street side, a stone wall topped with grids marks the entrance to the inner courtyard, via a gate framed by brick pillars. To the west, a gently sloping garden faces directly west towards the sea, with access to a path leading to the neighboring beach at the rear of the property. The house was built in the early 20th century, according to the construction standards of a holiday home, using exposed granite rubble with corner chainings and window frames painted in cement. Built in an L-shape with three bays, it is topped with a two-pitched slate roof, surmounted by three brick chimney stacks. The south and west walls are plastered. A garage was added later to the street-facing facade.This description has been automatically translated from French.

House Nontron (24)
A town house with a classical style, a garden and a stunning view in the historical heart of Nontron in France’s Périgord Vert area. The property extends over a long, narrow plot from a street to a valley drop. The house is built in a classical architectural style. It is a terraced house with a facade that leads straight out onto the street. The dwelling was built upon a medieval cellar. It has three floors, excluding its basement and its loft space. The latter could be converted. The house dates back to the 18th and 19th centuries. Its street side faces north and its garden side faces south. Its classically designed faces rise up to a gable roof of monk-and-nun tiling. Rendering coats the stone walls but leaves the dressed stone of the quoins and window and door surrounds exposed. The windows are perfectly aligned with one another. Stringcourses demarcate each floor. Solid and louvred shutters protect the house’s wooden windows, which are original features and are laid out symmetrically. A timber spiral staircase with a wrought-iron balustrade leads from the ground floor to the upper levels, including the loft. There is a landing on each floor. The town house conceals a walled garden behind it. The walls surrounding this garden were built upon the old ramparts of Nontron and its chateau. The property’s commanding position overlooking the valley offers a spectacular panoramic vista.

House Laurède (40)
In the Landes, 20 minutes from Mont-de-Marsan, a vast Capcazalière house of Chalosse, listed as a Historical Monument. Built around 1600, the property offers approximately 500 m² of living space on a plot of around 5,000 m². It is organized around a main house that rises two levels, beneath a two-pitched roof with widely overhanging tiles, whose plastered facades, rhythmically punctuated by stone cross windows equipped with small pane frames, are marked by a Renaissance-style stone entrance door, framed by pilasters and topped with a sculpted entablature; the overhanging roofs, supported by exposed wooden braces, emphasize its composition.Inside, a wooden staircase, four finely crafted stone fireplaces, and the Louis XIV-style paneling of a dining room have been preserved and are protected as Historical Monuments, as are the Gascon floors and the tiled surfaces. During the revolutionary troubles, the house housed a secret cache for refractory priests, discreet access to which still exists today.On either side, two parallel outbuildings, whose facades and roofs are also listed, elongated in volume and covered with tiles, frame the whole and contribute to the organization of three courtyards, alternately sunny or shaded.This description has been automatically translated from French.

House with pool Nouans-les-Fontaines (37)
A manor with outbuildings and a 15th-century chapel, listed as a Historical Monument, with 10 hectares of land, between the Touraine and Berry regions. A wide gravel drive leads to the property’s entrance: an arched carriage door with a wooden gate flanked by the chapel’s gable end on one side and a defensive tower on the other. In dressed and exposed tuffeau stone, it is topped with a gabled flat-tile roof and opens onto a vast gravel courtyard and lawns decorated with flowerbeds, around which the different dwellings are located. An initial L-shaped building is flanked by the defensive tower and includes a reception space, a holiday cottage and bedrooms. Its gabled roofs are covered in flat tiles and punctuated by hayloft dormer windows with triangular pediments. A second building, with a gabled flat-tile roof, two gabled dormer windows and two hayloft dormer windows – all four with triangular pediments – abuts the chapel and is extended by the manor. The third building, a square-shaped former dovecote, has been converted into a holiday cottage, built over two levels under an attic space, with a hipped slate roof. Following on from there is an individual cottage, with a three-sided roof covered in flat tiles and adorned with a hayloft dormer window with a triangular pediment. Its stone masonry façades are cadenced by different size windows, which are then surrounded by dressed tuffeau stone. In addition, the property also contains two outbuildings: one is located along the edge of the grounds, while the other is surrounded by woodland. Landscaped grounds spread out all around the buildings, with a small pond behind the manor and an aboveground swimming pool on pylons facing the fields and woods.
