House with pool Ciutadella de Menorca (Spain)
In Menorca, in Sa Caleta, on the outskirts of Ciutadella, a new south-facing villa set on a plot of around 830 m². In Ciutadella, the sea can be unpredictable. On some summer days, the harbour empties in a matter of minutes, leaving the boats resting on the seabed, before the water suddenly returns. The Menorcans call this phenomenon the ‘rissaga’. A few kilometres from the harbour, in Sa Caleta, the sea is calmer. A new villa stands on a south-facing plot of around 830 m², complete with terraces, a garden and three bedrooms. The beach is a ten-minute walk away. Here, it’s on foot – and unsurprisingly so – that you reach the sea.

Castle Cellettes (41)
2 hours from Paris and near to Blois A17th-century manor with outbuildings in wooded parklands,. The property stands outside the village and is hidden behind tall trees, away from a small country road. A wrought-iron gate opens onto a long drive running through the woodland up to the manor, which was built in the 17th century and altered as the centuries passed by. The Louis XIII style rectangular residence boasts classical architecture dominated by a tall, hipped slate roof and is oriented northwest to southeast. Its rendered facades are punctuated by tuffeau stone window and door surrounds as well as quoins. Both of the main facades boast a symmetrical layout with five vertical rows of windows on two levels. A large stone cornice separates the elevations from the tall slate roof, which is slightly sprocketed at its base. It is also punctuated by three gable dormers and two bullseye windows lined with zinc, most likely added in the 19th century. The gable walls at each side are topped by tall red brick chimney stacks. In the centre of the main facade, facing northeast, the entrance door stands beneath a large pediment bearing a coat of arms. Alongside the road, several outbuildings form a series of constructions varying in size and period of origin. They include a barn, a cottage, an estate keeper’s house, stables with coachman’s lodgings and a vast reception room.

House Ciutadella de Menorca (Spain)

Castle Ruffec (16)
In the northern Charente, within 8 ha of grounds, an estate with a 19th-century château, an 18th-century main house, and numerous outbuildings in need of renovation. Past the gate, a drive runs through woodland before leading to the property's various buildings. Built in the 19th century by the architect Paul Abadie, the eclectic château with its slate roof blends references to several periods and influences. The Middle Ages appear in the columns topped with capitals, the Renaissance in the mullioned windows, while brick and stone recall the 17th century. The oriels, for their part, echo British manor houses. The building rises three levels plus cellar and attic and comprises several reception rooms on the ground floor, with eleven bedrooms and seven bathrooms on the two upper levels. The main house, whose central section dates from the 18th century and whose side sections and facade date from the 19th, shows a more understated architecture, typical of the region. On the ground floor it houses two sitting rooms, a dining room, a kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom; six bedrooms and two bathrooms occupy the level above. A farmstead further on brings together a house, barns, cowsheds, and a woodstore. Other outbuildings bear witness to the estate's former wine-growing and cognac production, among them a press house, a chai fitted with vats, and a building given over to bottling. A former caretaker's house, stables, garages, and the groom's house are dotted across the remainder of the grounds, extensive at 8 ha.

Apartment with terrace Paris 4ᵗʰ (75)
A 20m² Parisian studio apartment, masterfully renovated and bathed in natural light, nestled on Île Saint-Louis river island with a clear view. The studio apartment lies up on the fourth and top floor of a plain 18th-century building with a rendered facade punctuated with stone courses. The edifice stands in the very heart of Île Saint-Louis island. It offers around 25m² of floor area – or around 15m² of liveable floor area according to France’s Carrez law. The communal areas are decorated with old fireplace plates. A timber staircase with a balustrade of wooden balusters bears witness to the historical character of the edifice. The apartment faces south. It is bathed in an abundance of natural light. You can see the River Seine from it. The interior designer who renovated the dwelling chose an optimised single-space design. A fitted kitchenette with oak units has been discreetly integrated into the studio apartment and a shower room with a lavatory lies behind a glazed partition wall. Old hexagonal terracotta tiles adorn the floor. They go well with the stone fireplace – a second-hand item from a chateau that adds a touch of nobility beneath the exposed beams of the roof frame. Each detail has been carefully considered, from the bespoke cupboards to the 19th-century sculpted doors and the flower-patterned cast-iron radiator. A wardrobe is fitted discreetly beside the shower room. The recent renovation has not only given the place real comfort, but also a D rating for energy efficiency.

House with garden and terrace Charny Orée de Puisaye (89)
A country residence with generous volumes and a pottery workshop, encircled by parkland with panoramic views, 1 hour 30 minutes from Paris, in Burgundy. The undulating countryside in which the property stands is dotted with country roads winding around the hills, one of which leads to the hamlet, punctuated by a few houses tucked away behind lush vegetation. A parking area with capacity for two cars can be found behind a double-leaf wooden gate at the entrance to the property. Within its walls, parking is also possible on a gravelled courtyard. Opposite the main residence, there is also a small wooden house. The garden is a little further away and is made up of many trees, including a several-hundred-year-old walnut tree providing shade for the patio.

Villa with pool and garden Teguise (Spain)
In Lanzarote, nestled between volcanoes and the ocean, a restored village house with its garden and terraces. On Lanzarote, rain is scarce, and it was the volcano that taught the farmers to manage without it. They covered their fields with picón, that black lava gravel which retains moisture and protects the soil from the sun. What had once burnt everything to a cinder has become the very thing that makes crops grow. In Las Cabreras, a rural village in the municipality of Teguise, a terraced house has also been given a new lease of life. Fully restored, its garden and terraces look out over the volcanic landscape and, beyond that, the Atlantic, with nothing to obstruct the view. On this island, the black earth is not seen as a ruin, but as a new beginning.

Property with pool Sernhac (30)
A 16th-century inn with an olive grove and vineyard on five hectares of land, nestled between the cities of Avignon, Uzès and Nîmes in southern France. From an imposing wrought-iron gate, a driveway snakes through a small olive grove, leading up to a second gate, which takes you into the estate’s parkland. The edifice has a ground floor and a first floor. It is U-shaped. There is a main section, which faces south, and two wings, which protrude at a right angle, flanking the main courtyard in a layout that is typical of rural estates of southern France. The building bears witness to special attention paid to the court-facing elevations. The facade has a been lime-rendered in ochre tones. Bathed in natural light that brings out its hue, this facade is made of local Vers stone, which is found throughout the site, even in two Roman wells. The facade windows are arranged evenly with classical accuracy, though they are marked by successive redesigns that took place over time. Along the ground floor, French windows in arched doorways bring an abundance of natural light into the vaulted reception rooms. The bedrooms all lie up on the first floor, each with their own private bathroom or shower room. The windows are fitted with wooden shutters painted brownish grey. The roofs are either single-sloped, two-sloped or three-sloped, depending on the section, and are underlined with a triple-row génoise cornice, designed both to keep rainwater away from the facade and to display the owner’s social status. A painted sundial discreetly embellishes the top of the east wing’s facade, reminding us how travel time was measured long ago. The pale gravel of the main courtyard brings out the verticality of the elevations. Korean mulberry trees, pruned into flat-top parasols, offer welcome shade in the summer heat of France’s Gard department and give structure to the space, turning it into an open-air lounge. A wrought-iron gate closes the courtyard, marking a boundary between the bustle of the outside world and the soothing peacefulness of this calm estate.
