A 15th and 16th-century manor house, listed as a Historical Monument, its outbuildings and 12-hectare grounds in the Mayenne department. From the village, a small road leads to a private driveway up to the entrance porch, which opens onto a main courtyard. The driveway also extends behind the manor and provides access to two outbuildings located to the west. A third outbuilding encloses the courtyard to the east, near the entrance. Pastures spread out on either side of the driveway. One of them is continued to the north with the first part of an oak grove, which then unfolds towards the west. The manor’s courtyard is extended by a garden, which overlooks a small river. Two other pastures located on the other side are accessible via a bridge. Constructed partially over a basement level, the manor contains four floors, including two built into the roof space. Made out of stone and rubble and coated in plaster, its edifice is crowned with gabled slate roofs and stone rims, punctuated by dormer windows topped with sculpted ornaments. Stone mullioned windows cadence the façade and a double flight staircase leads to the front door. In the back, the body of the main building is flanked by a square tower with a tented roof, a staircase tower and a round tower with a pointed roof. To the east, a small two-storey, hipped slate roof building is attached to the square tower. A cellar, accessible from the outside, is located under a portion of the manor. Its walls are made out of small sandstone masonry, which could date to the 11th and 12th centuries. The manor’s façades and roof, as well as its eastern two-storey wing, are listed as historical monuments.

House with garden Le Chesnay-Rocquencourt (78)
A millstone house in a quiet residential street on the Saint-Antoine plateau in Chesnay on the edge of Versailles. Built in 1908 on an almost 670 m² plot, of which around 560 m² is garden, this south-facing house is located in a quiet, residential street on the Plateau Saint-Antoine. Behind the low wall topped by a metal fence that protects it from prying eyes, the 'meulière' sits in pride of place in the centre of its grounds, surrounded by a bed of gravel. The stone walls, with three floors over a basement, are strewn with ivy and rosebushes and topped with a tiled roof with eaves, a Jacobean dormer window and a chimney. Most of the windows are round-arched. The window sills are brick and a masonry band marks the boundary between the basement and the raised ground floor. Large windows on this floor let plenty of light into the rooms, all of which have ceiling heights of almost 3 m. In the centre of the main facade, a flight of steps leads up to the double glazed entrance door with its wrought iron fittings, topped by a fanlight and a tiled wooden platform roof. To its right, a wooden balcony with a balustrade adorns the eastern window on the first floor. To the rear, the facade is flanked by a square tower with a pavilion roof, the walls of which are rendered on the three upper floors and the entrance door to which is accessed from the garden via a wooden staircase. The raised ground floor features a deep oriel window with a good view over the garden. The house has a floor area of more than 330 m², including around 100 m² of basement, and has 12 main rooms, including 7 bedrooms. With a roof which was remade and insulated in 2012, and double-glazed windows throughout, it has good insulation.

House with garden and terrace Cap Brun - Toulon (83)
A large renovated house dating back to 1930 with a garden and outbuildings in the Cap Brun district of Toulon, a 10-minute walk from a beach. The house and its garden are separated from the street by tall trees and a stone wall with two metal gates. The plot is rectangular. The house stands on the site’s northern edge, leaving a vast unobstructed outdoor space in front of its south-facing facade. A garage and an outdoor utility room lie in the north-west corner and a shady terrace adjoins the house’s east wall. The entrance door is also on this east side. The dwelling was built in the interwar period. It has two floors and a semibasement. A hipped roof crowns it, underlined with a triple-row génoise cornice. The pale walls are roughcast-rendered. Evenly spaced rectangular windows punctuate the walls – some casements, others sliding windows. They are fitted with folding shutters that are painted green. The south-facing facade stands out for its large bay-window alcove with arched windows. Two balconies with colonnaded balustrades adorn the facade. One of them crowns the bay-window alcove. A third one, which is larger, protrudes above the entrance on the east side, above a series of columns and arches.

House Ambres (81)
A large, 18th century, luxurious home, with almost 6 ha of woods, parklands and meadows, in the Tarn department. A driveway, bordered by centuries-old trees, runs from the road to the house. The main building, surrounded by Italianate parklands, is accompanied by an art studio, set back, as well as an outbuilding to the rear, used for holding weddings. A river flows past on a lower level, where the vegetation is dense and walks are numerous. In perfect harmony with the local houses, with its brick and stone walls as well as its Italian-style facade, this large, luxurious home dates from 1853. It blends beautifully in with the landscape, the undulating scenery of which has earned the region its nicknames of “little French Tuscany” and “land of a thousand hills”.

House with garden Montalieu-Vercieu (38)
In Isère, at the gates of the Blue Valley and the Chartreuse Natural Park, a 18th-century Dauphiné house and its land of over 5,000 m². Accessible via a departmental road, the property reveals itself at the center of a grassy and wooded plot, surrounded by mature vegetation that protects it from any overlooking. Seen from the sky, the whole reveals a characteristic L-shape plan, articulating two distinct volumes around an inner courtyard open to the garden. The main body, facing south, rises three levels above the ground floor and is topped with an ancient flat tile four-sided roof, pierced with dormer windows. A conical-roofed tower, an architectural signature of the Dauphiné stronghold, punctuates the northeast corner of the building. The facades, coated with lime in light ochre tones, are rhythmically punctuated with numerous small-pane windows, equipped with blue-gray painted wooden shutters, a characteristic color of the Isère heritage. A French window topped with a wrought iron balcony animates the facade side of the garden. In line with this, a second building, lower in height, at ground level, extends the whole to the west. Covered with ancient tiles, it complements the composition into a homogeneous whole in its materials and architectural language. The land is planted with tall-stemmed trees that frame the property.This description has been automatically translated from French.

House with garden Chaumont (52)
A 19th-century manor house and its breath-taking grounds, in Chaumont, within the southern Champagne region. About a ten-minute walk from the downtown area, the property is located on a small quiet street, frequented only by the neighbourhood’s residents. Enclosed by a low wall topped with Art Nouveau-style steel fencing, the property is accessible via an automatic gate. As for the dwelling, set back from the street as if erected in a clearing, it abuts a swath of woodland, providing both privacy and tranquillity as well as sheltering it from view in the back. Featuring an outbuilding to the right with two garages, a variety of plants are scattered throughout the grounds, including a soaring 150-year-old chestnut tree as well as a century-old Lebanese cedar.

Manor Houdan (78)
In the Eure valley, with outbuildings and an indoor pool, a 17th-century gentleman's residence and its enclosed park of over 1 hectare. Built in the early 17th century, between the reigns of Henry IV and Louis XIII, the gentleman's residence originally belonged to a neighboring castle, which it presumably served as the steward's residence. The main house consists of a central body elevated to three levels, flanked by two lower wings of one level. The facades, coated with lime, are rhythmically adorned with window frames and brick corner chains. The roofs, made of flat tiles and with a marked slope, are pierced by high triangular pedimented Jacobin dormers and skylights. The whole faces an outbuilding, formed of a barn and an indoor pool. The two buildings are separated by a square courtyard, paved and featuring a basin. The garden extends to the east, organized into several distinct areas connected by paths. Framed by a stone wall bordered by tall hedges on one side and by an impressive vegetated cliff on the other, it is dotted with numerous species and centennial trees.This description has been automatically translated from French.

House with garden Thervay (39)
Between Dijon and Besançon, in a 1-hectare park, a master house, its guest house, and its outbuildings with an industrial past. From the moment you enter the property, the wrought iron gate announces a bourgeois residence, probably built in the mid-19th century. A paved driveway leads to the garages located at the back of the estate. At the front, the master house precedes the outbuildings, which form an intimate square courtyard around a tall horse chestnut tree. Extending from the house is a long building that contains wooden grain silos, a testament to the activity that once took place here: the occupants were millers. On the other side of the courtyard, a second residential building, known as the guest house, is adjacent to a barn built on large cellars, which attest to the agricultural nature of the activity. At the back of the courtyard, there is a shed that housed the amenities. Further away stands a large garage built in the 1930s. Surrounding the buildings, the park stretches over more than 1 hectare, designed in the style of an English garden, including 90 ares of orchard.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Castle Chantilly (60)
One hour from Paris, in Oise, a 13th-century castle with tourism activities, seminars, and rental residence. The castle, built in the 13th century by the Count of Clermont, stands out for its location above the Oise valley. Constructed from dressed stone from Saint-Maximin, extracted from local quarries, it was originally a medieval fortress that has retained its right-angled plan and its three irregular round towers, which testify to its initial defensive function. Over the centuries, the castle has gone through many renovations, particularly under the impetus of the Madaillan de Lesparre family, who undertook significant restoration work between the 15th and 17th centuries. Henry IV, close to Jean de Madaillan, stayed there several times, as did Cardinal Odet de Coligny. Much later, as the residence of the Baron of Condé in the second half of the 19th century, the castle was transformed without losing its original character. The building has approximately 1,000 m² of living space spread over five levels: a basement, a ground floor, two floors, and attics. The ground floor houses three reception rooms, one of which is located in the former armory. The upper floors are now divided into four independent apartments, complemented by workspaces that combine residential life with professional activity. At the façade, a double stone staircase leads to an elevated terrace bordered by balustrades. The uniformly distributed windows, the steep slate roof, and the overall sobriety reflect the successive transformations that have successfully combined medieval austerity with classical harmony. The park, covering an area of about two hectares, shares part of its land in a co-ownership that includes a few villas without disrupting the coherence of the estate.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Property with garden Troyes (10)
In the center of Aube, 1 hour and 30 minutes from Paris, an elegant 19th-century manor house and its garden courtyard. Totally enclosed by high stone walls, the property opens through a gate leading to a paved courtyard allowing access to the main house and its outbuilding. The residence, situated in the center of the land, built at the corner of two streets, presents a classic style attentive to elegance. Rising four levels and oriented to the southwest, it is constructed of cut and pointed sandstone, rhythmically punctuated with windows featuring lowered arches and framed with red and brown bricks, like the molding and cornice, which delineate fairly regular horizontal limits between the levels. The tall windows, with white frames bordered by black wrought iron railings with decorative patterns and protected by folding metal shutters, contribute to the singular character of the whole. The left section of the façade is included in a projection with a triangular pediment, which disrupts the symmetry of the ensemble. The lush garden is organized around a green lawn, a large number of potted plants, a paved terrace, and a densely vegetated wall that protects from prying eyes. Located in the southwestern part of the plot, accessible from the main street and the courtyard, the outbuilding, elevated by one level, opens through a glass door and workshop-type windows; it is covered with a flat zinc roof and bordered by climbing plants complemented by a flowerbed of hydrangeas. Further on, a patch of various flowers occupies a large part of the courtyard space, alongside multiple trimmed boxwoods.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Contemporary apartment Paris 16ᵗʰ (75)
A high-ceilinged Parisian apartment bathed in natural light in a former belle époque workshop in the French capital’s 16th arrondissement. The edifice stands out for its pale brickwork facade with a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor. The entrance door is set in a surround of blue enamelled ceramic made by the famous French ceramist Émile Müller. This surround is embellished with ceramic tiles with floral and foliage motifs in an art nouveau style and is crowned with a lion’s head. Beyond the entrance door, there is a hallway with a staircase that displays an astonishing ceramic frieze – a listed work in the local land use plan. It is a tall frieze of Persian archers made by Émile Müller. Enamelled bricks adorn the walls and faithfully reflect a frieze from the Palace of Darius in Susa, Iran. Wooden steps lead up to the second floor. Beyond the apartment’s door, there is a vast 120m² space with a five-metre-high ceiling. The main part is an open-plan space bathed in an abundance of natural light from a huge glazed east-facing wall of large panes set in wooden frames. This extensive glazing is the architectural centrepiece of this former workshop. It looks down at an inner court in which the colourful elevations of the neighbouring buildings display a picture that changes over the course of the day. Wood strip flooring of solid oak with a patina of time extends across all the rooms. Its honey tinge and broad planks invite your gaze to explore the apartment. The pure-white walls underline the true sizes of the rooms and reflect the light. The layout respects the workshop’s original fluidity and keeps its character while organising distinct purposes for the different spaces. Beside the huge glazed wall, there is a workspace. The centre is taken up by a relaxation area with contemporary furniture. And a kitchen lies beneath a mezzanine. You reach this mezzanine via a white staircase with geometric lines, to the left of the entrance hall. An open-plan reading room lies up on this mezzanine and a landing connects to the main bedroom and a bathroom with a bathtub, a lavatory and a window. One last flight of stairs takes you up to a second bedroom in the roof space.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Autoire (46)
An old stone house and shop nestled in one of France’s most beautiful villages with a view of a rocky cirque. This fine dwelling is tucked away among the round and square towers that grace the village’s many country houses, which also feature quaint dovecotes – some genuine, others false. The house is inconspicuous, its architecture unpretentious. Its shape softens the angular forms of the surrounding medieval structures and the sturdy remains of the fortified old town. The building was probably made in the fifteenth or sixteenth century as a modest home. It captures much of this castle village’s unique history. Its simplicity makes it stands out from Autoire’s other houses. Unlike other dwellings in the village, this property does not feature towers, dovecotes, mullioned windows, half-timbering and corbels. Instead, it features straight lines and the stout design of the old block-like houses with upper floors that you find along the Dordogne valley. There are two entrance doors leading into the building. One is on the west side. You enter it at the garden level of the dwelling, at the end of a small garden with a terrace that enjoys a splendid corner spot with a clear, breathtaking view of the nearby limestone cliffs of Autoire’s spectacular cirque. The other one is on the north side. You enter it via a courtyard – a former threshing area – at the ground level. This expanse takes you to a large entrance into two shops next to each other, in front of which chairs and tables are placed for customers. At the back of the courtyard stands a fine modern extension of timber boards that runs along part of the facade made of Quercy stone, where a semibasement with a workshop, boiler room and storage space lies.

House with pool and garden Solliès-Ville (83)
A traditional Provence house with large outbuildings, a swimming pool, tree-filled garden, and 2 hectares of fig trees, near to Hyères and 20 minutes from the beaches. From the country road, a lane lined with fig trees, also leading to other houses, heads directly to the property’s entrance and its wide, sliding gate, behind which there is a large, tarmacked inner courtyard. This vast parking area serves the two outbuildings used for the farming activity but also the two-storey main dwelling and the adjacent single-storey apartment to the west. The country house, which was erected more than 20 years ago, combines the main dwelling and independent apartment. It boasts a sober and classic appearance that is respectful of Provence’s architectural traditions: a subtly toned pink rendered façade, almost perfectly symmetrically laid out rectangular windows - though some doors and patio doors are arched - pastel blue Venetian louvred shutters and, depending on the section of the building, hipped or half-hipped roofs made of half-round tiles, underlined by a double genoise corbel. Its southern façade overlooks a large patio that stretches out in front of the apartment to the west, while the approximately 800-m² garden mainly expands to the south and east. The swimming pool and pool-house are located at the southeastern tip of the garden, which is enclosed by walls and hedges, while a working, approximately 2-hectare, certified organic fig tree orchard can be found to south of the house.

House with pool and garden Etampes (91)
A group of Renaissance-era buildings, renovated into guest accommodations, with a swimming pool and one-hectare grounds bordered by a river, 1.5 hours from Paris. It is impossible to pass through the gate’s two brick pillars without noticing their sculpted lace-like stone pinnacles, vestiges of the property’s past splendour. Overlooking the countryside, an impressive circular tower, originally from the late 15th century and rebuilt in the 19th century in brick, is topped with stone machicolations and a slate pepperpot roof, while two additional towers can also be found on the property: a hexagonal one and a smaller circular one. As for the former staff quarters, now converted into guest rooms and caretaker’s accommodations, they are accessible via the grounds’ many pathways and were once connected to the chateau itself, which no longer exists today, whereas the property’s chapel has been transformed into the main dwelling. Featuring homogenous architecture, typical of the late Gothic period and a precursor to the Renaissance, its brick walls are cadenced by stone window/door surrounds topped with ogee arches, small-paned doors and windows, some of which are mullioned, as well as quoins, which highlight the buildings’ edges and slate rooftops. Last, but not least, a covered swimming pool is located in front of the main dwelling and extends the view towards the grounds, enclosed by walls, fencing and a river on one side.

House with garden Rambouillet (78)
A stately dwelling with its orangery and ornamental ponds on 3,000-m² grounds, in the middle of a village, 45 kilometres from Paris. Ideally located near the village centre, the property, surrounded by a landscaped garden of approximately 3,000 m², was gradually constructed over the course of the 20th century. Owing its neoclassical style to passionate connoisseurs who were inspired by ancient Greco-Roman architecture, the dwelling is made up of a main central building whose rectangular shape is flanked by outbuildings on each of its gable ends as well as a small pavilion. Built near the road, its main façade looks southward, while in the back the dwelling overlooks a garden with an orangery, in need of a renovation, as well as two ornamental ponds.

House with pool and garden Tournus (71)
A manor house and a swimming pool on 5,600-m² grounds, 30 minutes from a high-speed rail station, in the middle of a village within the Sâone-et-Loire department. From the street, a wrought-iron gate and a pedestrian door both open onto a wide central path, which, after ascending a flight of stone steps, leads to the house’s front door. Built in the 17th century, the main dwelling, located in the middle of its tree-filled garden, was thoroughly reorganised in the 19th century, providing it with its current configuration. Rectangular in shape, the two-storey building’s main façade, nearly symmetrical, is flanked on either side by two taller wings as well as a one-storey extension to the south, while the entire dwelling is topped with a barrel tile roof, typical of the region, and surrounded by a patio. Mostly enclosed by stone walls, the property also includes a swimming pool, slightly set back, and an adjacent summer kitchen, thereby creating a separate outdoor living space during the summer months. It should be noted that thanks to its meticulous upkeep and periodic renovations, the property is in overall good condition.

House with garden and terrace Chatillon (92)
A large burrstone house to be reinvented, with vast living spaces, four bedrooms, a workshop and two enclosed garages, nestled in Châtillon, bordering Clamart. Dating back to the early 20th century, the three-storey burrstone house with a basement level is highlighted on its exterior by beige and red brickwork, cast-iron lintels adorned with glazed-ceramic flowers, and Art Nouveau guardrails. The reception room, which opens onto the garden through a large bay window created in the 1990s, measures over 55 m² and features a working fireplace. A terrace on stilts provides access to the garden. The lounge is adjacent to a kitchen with a glass roof that is accessible after descending a few steps. The kitchen overlooks a room that could be used as a conservatory or workshop that communicates with the semi-underground basement level. The first floor includes three large bedrooms, which look out over the calm neighbouring gardens, as well as a bathroom with a window and a separate lavatory. On the second floor, there is a spacious bedroom with an open bathroom, a separate lavatory and a terrace built into the roof.

House with garden and terrace Rangueil-Sauzelong-Pech David-Pouvourville - Toulouse (31)
A characterful hillside house with a garden overlooking the surrounding countryside, nestled in a highly sought-after residential suburb of Toulouse in south-west France. The property is part of a remarkable series of buildings that were unveiled in 1932 and were designed to provide the city of Toulouse with drinking water. You enter the property via a large gate framed between two pillars. The house is designed in the characteristic style of Toulouse’s early-20th-cenutry architecture. It was built upon land above an underground aqueduct that runs through the Pech-David hill and joins a water-lifting station beside the River Garonne. The plot on which the dwelling stands is now private. This plot includes a paved driveway, a court where three vehicles can be parked, a covered garage, and an enclosed garden that enjoys absolute privacy and offers a 40m² terrace. The land that lies at a lower level and houses the aqueduct belongs to the city of Toulouse and cannot be built upon. This ensures that no neighbouring property on this plot will be built.
