Apartment with terrace Paris 6ᵗʰ (75)
Rue Huysmans, on the 4th level of an Art nouveau apartment building, a 67 m² apartment with its original decorative features intact. The architect Henri Preslier built this dressed-stone Art nouveau apartment building in 1913. Its sculpted facade sets it apart: a vine spreads across the capitals, consoles, and balconies, continuing as far as the wrought-iron entrance door ornamented with grape clusters and vine tendrils. Two bays of oriel windows, capped by pediments inspired by northern European gables, give the elevation its rhythm. Beyond an oval vestibule lined with semicircular-arched mirrors and a floral mosaic, a staircase with a turned-timber balustrade, stained glass, and period embossed wallpaper rises to the levels above. A lift set within a wrought-iron cage also serves the upper levels. The apartment occupies the 4th level, comprising 67 m² within a well-balanced plan of three rooms. The apartment retains its original decorative features throughout. A large entrance hall with a library leads to a double living room facing south-east and giving onto the street. In the dining room stands a Louis XVI-style marble fireplace ornamented with fluted colonnettes and an acanthus rosette, surmounted by a trumeau panel with garlands and ribbons. The sitting room has its own fireplace, moulded coffered panels, and a cornice with fruit motifs. Light comes from an oriel window, which heightens the room's character, its sense of scale, and its brightness. A hallway leads to a kitchen with pale sea-green units, stainless-steel worktops, and a dark stoneware-tiled floor. Beyond it, a small exterior walkway looks down over the courtyard. The shower room combines a semicircular polished-concrete shower with a generous black stone washbasin counter, in a harmony of mineral materials. The north-east-facing bedroom looks onto the courtyard, adjoins the shower room and lavatory, and remains consistently quiet. A foliage frieze runs above its marble fireplace and trumeau panel. Period wood strip flooring, laid in straight boards in the English manner, runs through the apartment. Mouldings and coffered panels complete the scheme, beneath a ceiling height of 2.84 m. Together, these features combine character, light, and comfort. The apartment is meticulously maintained and ready to move into. It also leaves its future occupant complete freedom to make it their own. A 5 m² cellar comes with the property.

House with pool and garden Cordes-sur-Ciel (81)
20 minutes from Albi, in a medieval village in the Tarn, a 13th-century house with courtyard, garden, and views of the Cérou valley. The remarkable house in pale gold stone, medieval in architecture and strikingly authentic, fits naturally into a paved street of the village centre, among lanes, old shops, and ancient remains. This main street is the principal artery through the upper town. Running east to west, the house was built over the town's former ramparts and is arranged over four levels. The street facade is protected as a historic monument. Its verticality gives the building its grandeur. Entirely of stone, this civic frontage presents a highly regular composition, organised in bays and in levels separated by stringcourses. Large pointed-arch openings, their dressed-stone surrounds made up of carefully laid voussoirs, punctuate the ground floor, historically given over to trade. Narrow Gothic windows pierce the upper levels. Jambs and engaged colonnettes frame them, carrying small capitals at the springing of the arches. The facing combines rubble-stone masonry with dressed-stone architectural elements, notably in the surrounds, the quoins, and the supports of the openings. Together they reflect the quality of the Gothic civic architecture that distinguished the village in the 13th century. On the ground floor, the traditional arrangement places sitting room and kitchen beside an interior courtyard at the centre of the vast main house, while the upper levels hold no fewer than six bedrooms and three shower rooms. The garden level provides guest accommodation and an indoor pool. At the rear, a Mediterranean garden, modest in size and well composed, offers views over the tops of the surrounding buildings and the countryside beyond.

Land Marvão (Portugal)
In the Alentejo, a rural farmhouse on the outskirts of Marvão, nestled among centuries-old olive trees and the Serra de São Mamede. Wealth lies here, in this corner of the Alentejo, where water from a natural spring refuses to dry up even during droughts and flows through the nearly 10-hectare property. Surrounding it is a farm with its various outbuildings: stables, a barn, a bread oven, and farm equipment. Century-old olive trees bear fruit, cork oaks breathe, and dry-stone walls stand in rows. Two independent homes with swimming pools have received municipal approval. The project no longer awaits permits; it awaits the will to move forward. Those who see it will understand: this is not a legacy to be admired; it is an infrastructure to be revitalized.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the coast, the estate offers a unique setting where family life, hospitality, and farming intertwine without hierarchy. Its cohesive architecture and the integration of its outdoor spaces make it, above all, a property for those who wish to cultivate a balance between domestic life and the land.

Land Ourique (Portugal)
In the Alentejo, a single-story villa on 10.9 hectares just outside Ourique. Owning ten hectares in the Alentejo is like owning silence. A single-story villa is rooted there, organizing the spaces according to a long-established logic. The pine trees ask for nothing. The open landscape is self-sufficient. Ourique is close enough for groceries, yet far enough away that daily life doesn’t intrude. This is a property that has found its balance between seclusion and accessibility. Those who understand it will know that you don’t buy here to renovate; you buy to carry on.

House with garden and terrace Meudon (92)
In Meudon, on a private road close to the train station, an architect-designed house and outbuilding set within an extraordinary garden. The property gate opens at the start of a private road a short distance from the station, giving onto a lush garden through which the house is approached and gradually revealed. Designed by a renowned interior architect and organised entirely around this garden, it requires no work. An entrance hall serves a first bedroom with its own shower room and gives onto a corridor; lined with built-in wardrobes, the corridor leads in turn to a separate lavatory and a small room fitted as a workshop. Two large openings give into a sitting room of exceptional proportions, with the ceiling rising to 4.5 m. On two sides, expanses of glazing bring the garden fully into the room; a working fireplace occupies the third wall, flanked by a pair of bespoke bookcases that reach to the ceiling. On the garden side, a few steps climb to a comfortable dining room extending into an open kitchen with generous, well-organised storage; here too the garden fills the large windows. Roof lights throughout the house draw in light from above. A back kitchen, equipped with a second sink, gives access to the utility room. Below the dining room, the principal bedroom has a spacious dressing room and a private bathroom; a glazed frieze along one wall keeps the garden constantly in view. Equally comfortable in winter and summer, when nights remain cool, it offers ideal conditions year-round. Behind the sitting room's far wall, a cleverly concealed staircase rises to a mezzanine housing a study and a library, with access from there to a further bright bedroom and a shower room with lavatory. At the entrance to the property, a covered shelter provides parking and an electric vehicle charging point; a second car can be parked in the drive. An outbuilding of approximately 50 m² has been fitted as a home cinema with a retractable giant screen, a shower room with lavatory, and a small gym.

Castle Pezenas (34)
In 'French Tuscany', at the heart of the Hérault, close to Pézenas An elegant 17th-century chateau with outbuildings and 4 ha of grounds. Fully restored over the past decade to the most exacting standards, the chateau comes into view at the end of a long drive lined with trees several centuries old. Built in the 17th century at the heart of wooded grounds, it and its outbuildings create a composition of rare architectural and landscape quality. Running east to west, the house stands in theatrical relation to its grounds. On the west, the main facade opens onto a wide lawn continued by the perspective of the large reflecting pool with its fountain jet. Two slate-roofed towers and a chapel mark the ends. On the east, the mood turns more intimate, with an ornamental basin sheltered beneath the tree canopy. With more than 1,000 m² over three levels, the building shows a classical Italianate architecture typical of the patrician country houses of Languedoc. Strictly ordered facades of local stone carry roofs of barrel tiles and génoise cornices that assert their southern character. The restoration, carried out with the utmost care, is one of the property's distinguishing features. Nothing has been left to chance: the quality of the materials, the accuracy of the proportions, the precision of the workmanship, and an exceptionally high level of finish together restore the chateau to its full distinction, without sacrificing anything to present-day demands for comfort and reliability. The same pursuit of excellence extends to the equipment that makes the estate entirely self-sufficient: a borehole with a drinking-water treatment system, and a generator to keep systems running at all times. These arrangements reflect an overall approach in which the preservation of historic character goes hand in hand with constant attention to durability and use. To the south, the former stables, now converted into contemporary living quarters, and the orangery extend the main house. Set apart in a clearing, two eco-lodges blend into their planted surroundings. The result is a property of rare completeness, marked by the quality of the restoration and the discreet sophistication of the equipment. Suited to hospitality and events, the chateau and its outbuildings can accommodate up to 200 people.

On the hills between Rasca and Aldeia Grande, an 87-hectare estate features two inhabited houses, a chapel and its outbuildings, and a ruin whose future remains to be determined.

The choice was strategic. It was also aesthetically pleasing—from Monsaraz, the view stretches all the way to the Spanish border without any obstructions. Inside the 17th-century walls, a house embodies several centuries of domestic life without prioritizing one era over another. The cauldron in the kitchen fireplace sits alongside handcrafted mosaics. The domes echo the granite. Slate covers what the stone does not reveal. Below, Lake Alqueva. Above, the Alentejo sky.
