    Villa with pool and garden Avignon (84)

    15 minutes from Avignon TGV, facing the Ventoux, Luberon, and Alpilles, a 'Californian' villa from 1962, with garden, terraces, pool, and view. At the top of a steep, winding street that runs through the residences of the commune of Les Angles, a contemporary metallic gate and its two concrete pillars proudly bear the promising name of the villa: 'L'Horizon'. The promise will not be disappointed. Once opened, the gate reveals an imagined horizon, composed of the most famous mountain ranges of Provence, in the middle of which rises the architectural jewel of Avignon: its Palais des Papes. One can momentarily abandon this view, certain to rediscover it continuously both outside and inside this three-level construction with a brutalist yet playful appearance full of humor. From the entrance on the west side, it presents the visitor not with a monumental elevation but a painted wooden garage door alongside a small entry door made of wrought iron and wood, characteristic of the 1960s. The deception works wonderfully and could lead one to think it is merely a simple shed. Which is obviously far from the case. The best is concealed on the garden side, in the splendor of the rising sun, where a much more explicit modernist elevation stands. This is one of those small villas called 'Californian' that blossomed in the 1960s in Provence, especially along the Mediterranean coast, and few intact examples remain. A modest 20th-century habitat par excellence, often disparaged, but unjustly, these villas have now become 'cult'. They generally opted for a simple, bright, refined architecture with a 'chic' appearance, embodying an ideal of a small family home. The colors of the wood combined with bright white coatings and concrete often sculpted in the shape of stones, highlighted with painted strokes, still emanate a strong brightness, enhanced by views of the spectacular natural landscapes in front of which they were very often erected. This is exactly the case here, for the happiness of all its occupants.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    Listed castle Albi (81)

    10 minutes from the center of Albi, by the Tarn river, a 16th-century château and its 3.6-hectare park. The château was built between the 16th and 17th centuries, and later a wing was rebuilt in the 19th century. Classified as a historical monument, it is linked to local history. Jean-François de Galaup, Count of Lapérouse, a famous navigator and explorer born in 1741, spent his childhood there. The residence largely retains its organization from this period. Access to the property is via a metal gate leading to a tree-lined driveway up to the château courtyard. A surrounding terrace borders the building and overlooks the meadows that slope down toward the Tarn, visible through the trees. Below, a swimming pool is set in the slope of the land, while an old nymphaeum, likely created in the 19th century and fed by a spring, is situated away from the main area. The park, of about 3.6 hectares, consists of tall trees, ornamental plantings, meadows, and wooded areas. The plots spread around the château and provide views of the river from the terrace and façades.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    Property Chantilly (60)

    A horse stud farm with 32 hectares of woods and pasture and a remarkable half-timbered stable built in 1920 in the middle, nestled near the town of Chantilly in northern France. The estate covers a little over 32 hectares of unbroken land that combines premium pasture – considered essential for thoroughbreds – and woods with bridlepaths. A wide driveway lined with white fencing leads to the building and underlines its symmetry. Built in 1920 on the former grounds of a neighbouring chateau, the edifice owes its existence to an Argentinian billionaire and horse enthusiast who ordered construction of the property to create his own horse stud farm here. The architecture is neo-Norman in style with half-timbering, tiled roofing, hipped wall dormers and a large shelter that leads out to the pastures. The stud farm was originally designed for breeding galloping racehorses. Today, it is perfectly suited to any equestrian activity, whether for leisure or competitions. The site layout is highly logical. It brings together a stable and work spaces around the house in a coherent, practical whole. Several recent facilities for daily training add to the estate.

    House with garden Joigny (89)

    The former courthouse and its chapel listed as a historical monument, in Burgundy, in the historical centre of Joigny. The former courthouse, situated in the heart of the Saint André district, occupies an emblematic position on Place de la République, a vast cobbled esplanade dominated by the church after which the district is named, historically populated by craftspeople and winegrowers as well as being the cradle of medieval Joigny. The property is made up of three separate sections standing around an inner courtyard away from prying eyes. The edifice was erected in the early 19th century and boasts the solemn architecture typical of the era’s public institutions. The main façade, made of dressed limestone, overlooks a wide flight of stone steps leading up to an immense double-leaf door. Moulded capitals frame the door, above which there is a cornice topped by a semi-circular opening in which there is a large fanlight window. The triangular pediment atop the central avant-corps is adorned with an allegorical high relief depicting a female figure that is most likely Themis, who was the incarnation of justice during the Greek Antiquity. On both sides of the building, the façades are punctuated with tall, vertical, brick-framed windows, topped with semi-circular fanlight windows, reminiscent of the central opening on the pediment. The Ferrand chapel adjoining the northern end of the courthouse is a precious reminder of Joigny’s religious heritage. It was built in 1530 and used as a family funeral chapel before being incorporated into the courthouse in the 19th century. Behind wrought-iron railings stands its octagonal structure boasting sculpted pilasters and ornamental alcoves. Its upper part is adorned with a bas-relief macabre art frieze depicting scenes from the Last Judgement and the resurrection. A double-curved slate dome previously adorned its roof but today it is topped by a more sober conical roof, paying witness to the transformations carried out throughout the centuries. To the west, another building connects with the courthouse and was formerly the court administration and magistrates’ offices. With the appearance of a townhouse, this two-storey building is today used for residential purposes. The stone-coloured rendered façade is punctuated by five vertical rows of openings with red brick frames fitted with louvred shutters. From the square, to the left of the courthouse’s façade, a wide, double-leaf wrought iron gate opens into the reception courtyard. The roofs, punctuated with dormer windows, are made of traditional Burgundy flat tiles. To the rear, there is a courtyard boasting flowerbeds, a Virginia creeper and a large-leaved Paulownia tree.

    House with garden Corbigny (58)

    An 18th century country manor house with an adjoining workshop, conservatory and walled garden in a village in the heart of the Nièvre department . The house is built in the south-east corner of the grounds, set back from a peaceful village street. Part of the building can be seen from the paved courtyard that runs alongside it, providing several access points to the house. You can either enter via the garden or via two other passageways that lead to the first floor. On the garden side, the house shows its original character, that of a multi-storey dwelling with an irregular layout, in fine limestone which has all been rendered except for the ashlar corner ties. Most of the windows, which are rectangular in shape and of varying sizes, are framed in ashlar. The roofs of the various buildings are predominantly four-sided and covered with Burgundy tiles, with the exception of a mansard roof covered with slate over the attic. Built in stone, the building has four storeys, with a ground floor divided between a large living area and another, more technical area. The first floor is entirely devoted to communal areas and the second floor groups together areas to have privacy and rest. There is also an attic at the top of the house. A recent veranda, which is all glass and black metal, sits at the base of the oldest part of the house and opens directly onto the garden. Lastly, a small one-storey house with an attic and cellars, probably dating from the 19th century, flanks the eastern side of the house and forms an extension that connects to it. Topped by a gable roof with Burgundy tiles and enhanced by notable masonry features still present on its stone facades (notably the window frames), it houses a unique room that has been completely restored.

    Listed castle Tarbes (65)

    A listed historical monument medieval castle in tree-filled land, with 4-hectare grounds, a swimming pool and a tennis court in the Hautes-Pyrénées area. This castle is an admirable remnant of the Hautes-Pyrénées’ heritage and is perfectly preserved. It boasts a thousand-year history and is a listed historical monument. Its first foundations date, in all likelihood, from the 11th century when the defensive tower was used to protect the surrounding fields from pillaging and plundering, in particular by the Aragonese forces. Although the building has undergone many transformations as time has passed, its 15th-century eastern façade has remained unchanged. The edifice was acquired by the Count of Lavedan in 1274, a year during which he received the seigniory of Horgues from the Count of Bigorre to clear a debt. From Raymond-Garcie IV de Lavedan to Jean-Pierer Ducasse de Horgues, over a period of more than 500 years, the castle had almost twenty illustrious owners. From that point in time until 2018, the estate was owned by the same family. The medieval castle with two towers was built on the outskirts of the village and was overhauled in the 17th and 18th centuries. Through a double leaf wrought iron gate, a plane tree lined drive runs alongside rubble stone built former stables with a roof of half round tiles, opposite the castle and its imposing silhouette, built in the 15th century and since transformed several times. In addition to the two towers on either side, the seigniorial residence is made up of two four-storey rectangular sections in a T-shape, each with a sprocketed, gabled slate roof. The two towers, one of which is square and the other which is rounded on one side and squared on the other, are both topped by an octagonal level adored with a slate roof of the same shape. It is thought that the tower to the southwest was added in the 18th century. Lastly, the castle’s former water mill can be found behind the residence. It is currently used as a holiday cottage, while the grounds spread out all around the buildings and, to the left of the castle, play host to a swimming pool.

    Property with pool and garden Sausset-les-Pins (13)

    A 20th-century villa with outbuildings, a garden, swimming pool and panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, to the west of Marseille on the Blue Coast. Perched on a promontory, the land where the old mill once stood was gradually divided up in order to make room for several villas in the 1960s. All that remains from the former mill is a tower now encircled by the building complex, which has progressively been expanded over time. With the arrival of the train, followed by various services and amenities, the traditional lifestyle of this seaside village quickly transformed into a sought-out coastal resort town, while the proximity of the famous actor Fernandel once again increased interest in this holiday destination, secluded and yet close to several dynamic business hubs. With immaculate and rather massive architecture, including multiple building structures, but with an overall traditional appearance thanks to its ochre-colour plaster-coated exteriors, arched windows surrounded by ashlar stone as well as its barrel canal rooftops bordered by genoise cornices, the villa combines the character of yesteryear with modern comfort. As for its large glass doors and picture windows, they allow the natural light to bathe its interior and provide panoramic views of the sea, while inside, noble materials and soft tones were chosen in order to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. In addition, the bedrooms, sizeable and sunny, were designed as individual sanctuaries, their bathrooms were tastefully decorated with several luxurious touches and the living areas, generous in size, are extended outdoors thanks to several sun-dappled patios, bordered by understated wrought-iron guardrails or stone balustrades, intended for convivial moments between family or friends as well as peaceful relaxation lulled by the wind in the pine trees. With a separate flat and recreational amenities, including an impressive swimming pool, which provide a sumptuous touch and augment the property’s inhabitable spaces, the latter seems as if to melt into the horizon like the bow of a ship, surrounded by an immense terracotta deck as well as a variety of outbuildings. Last, but not least, the garden, meticulously landscaped, is an invitation to stroll through its verdant pathways, while terraced areas lead to more intimate spaces, ideal for reading against the soothing soundtrack of the waves in the distance.

    House with garden and terrace Toulon (83)

    A characterful dwelling with a sweeping sea view and a walled garden dotted with citrus trees, nestled in the old town centre of Hyères in the south of France. It was under the reign of Charles I of Anjou, in the 13th century, that a fortified town with five gates was built around the chateau here. One of these gates, Porte Saint-Paul, still has the grooves of its former portcullis. The edifice has three floors and is built upon Porte Saint-Paul gate. It has been redesigned several times since it was first built and it was extended in the 19th century. Its elevations are coated with rendering and its window and door surrounds are made of exposed ashlar, as are its quoins. The windows are arranged in four bays along the sea-facing elevation. They are of different sizes. Most of them are arched and the others are rectangular. A double-row génoise cornice underlines a roof of barrel tiles, which crowns the main section. A turret marks a corner of the edifice. It is supported by the gate’s thickest pillar and is capped with a zinc cone roof that is crowned with a finial. Inside the building there are five apartments, including the three that are for sale and which lie on the ground floor and first floor. The current owners have brought the three apartments together into a single dwelling with a 160m² floor area. The dwelling surrounds a terrace and a walled garden dotted with old citrus trees. The garden faces south and enjoys absolute privacy. It offers panoramic views of the Îles d'Or islands and the surrounding hills, upon which Villa Noailles stands. The three apartments could be turned into three self-contained units, each with their own private entrance. From a small road behind Saint-Paul collegiate church, three steps take you to an old door, which leads to the building’s entrance hall and to a wooden spiral staircase. These stairs take you to the upper floors.

    Castle Langon (33)

    An estate to be restored, with outbuildings and 4.5 hectares of meadows and vines, 45 minutes from Bordeaux, on the outskirts of a village in the Gironde area. The estate is located in the heights of the village of which it is part, near to a street that runs past it. However, it is sufficiently far from any form of noise pollution. An earthen drive running past an hedge of hornbeams leads directly to it. The property is not fenced or walled, which would be superfluous, given the location set back from the road, the natural protective screen formed by the vineyards as well as the peace and quiet of the area. It is located in a semi-rural area, on mainly flat land, as is the case for the surrounding villages, standing between the Garonne River and its canal. This massive and noble stone residence with a tiled roof can be seen from the road, partially hidden by the estate’s rows of vines. It is made up of a rectangular main building with an adjoining, one-storey outbuilding set at a right angle to it, to the right-hand side of the house, on the eastern side, which is used as a store and a garage. Opposite, a hut houses the water pumping system, very near to the well. The grounds, including several hundred-year-old trees and notably a cedar planted in 1875 as well as copses of more recently planted shrubs, is made up of lawns stretching from the walls of the house to the vines to the northeastern side of the property. They account for approximately a third of the 4.3-hectare estate. The rest is made up of two plots of cultivated vines, separated by a tarmac road. The property has been in the same family since 1844 and is a recognised element of the region’s heritage, as proved by its classification as a picturesque site for the last 50 years by the local authorities.

    House with pool and garden Lectoure (32)

    A chateau, redesigned in the 18th century, with large annexes, a 1,200m² floor area and 14 hectares of grounds with a moat in France’s Gers department, 100 kilometres from Toulouse. You reach the 14-hectare property from a country road that edges its west side. A low stone wall protects a front section of the grounds where many outhouses stand. A shady path lined with towering horse chestnuts crosses a grassy expanse and leads up to the chateau’s main entrance. On the south side, a long separate building made of rubble stone demarcates this front section and marks the edge of the property. Storehouses lie at the sides of the grounds. These structures have been partly renovated to become a caretaker’s lodge and a workshop space, but much of the roofing on them needs to be restored. On the north side of the grounds, a small house with a dovecote and walls of repointed exposed stonework stands among farming annexes that include vast barns and other buildings. On the east side of this front section, a two-storey building with a tiled roof separates the old farm complex from the chateau, giving the latter complete privacy and calm. The chateau lies beyond a tall wrought-iron gate that stands in a covered carriage entrance. The edifice dates back to the Middle Ages and the time when the lords of Armagnac reigned here. It was built in the centre of its grounds, surrounded by a gravel terrace. A chapel protrudes at a right angle to the main section at the chateau’s east end. And a wing of annexes with a covered carriage entrance extends at the edifice’s west end. This wing is flanked with an adjoining tower crowned with a windmill. A remarkable mechanism in this section brought running water to the property at the end of the 19th century. The mechanism was invented by Élie Coulange, the property’s owner at the time. An ornamental pond and stone pedestals supporting bronze vestals echo the typically 18th-century traits of the chateau’s south and east walls. These statues were ordered by the famous countess Marie-Jacqueline de Biran d'Armagnac. Beyond the ornamental garden, and hidden behind a hedge, lies a swimming pool with a clear view of the surrounding countryside. The grounds are as majestic as the edifice: the vast plot is punctuated with wells, water-filled moats and a wide range of age-old trees, including cedars that line a long path.

    Mill Poitiers (86)

    In the scenic Vienne region, in the centre of grounds crossed by a river, a traditional farmhouse with full French ownership rights and two guest houses . The property can be accessed via two entrances, the first providing direct access to the grounds and the second to the farmhouse via a courtyard, where a covered area has been created with space for two cars. A caretaker's cottage is located a few meters from the main entrance. The stone farmhouse has a flat-tiled roof. Its two facades are dotted with windows, some with French windows, which are echoes of each another. In the grounds, a first guest house can be accessed via the garden gate and by going past the front of the farmhouse, which is just a few metres away. Built of exposed stone with a tiled roof like the farmhouse, it faces the mill and a reservoir formed by the water from the millstream. The mill, set opposite these first two dwellings is the focal point of the whole complex. The mill's history can be traced back to the 17th century, when its dykes were built. Destroyed by a fire in 1790, it was rebuilt in 1800 and still has water rights to this day. Its drop height is around 1.8 m. It should be noted that all the dykes have been bricked up and raised to protect the buildings from possible winter flooding. Finally, a second guest house has been built on the first island and is linked to the shore by a small bridge and accessed by a stone staircase. Another bridge leads to a second, even larger island.

    Castle Valençay (36)

    A 19th-century chateau with outhouses, a chapel and a lake, nestled in 30 hectares of grounds in the south of France’s Touraine province. The seigneurial home that was built here on the ruins of a medieval mansion, of which no vestiges remain, was endlessly redesigned until it collapsed in 1860. In 1890, the decision was made to rebuild the edifice on the site. A renowned architect, Louis-Alfred Trolliet, a specialist in the reconstruction of chateaux, was entrusted with this task. He was responsible for the edifice you can see here today. Trolliet was nicknamed ‘the Viollet-le-Duc of the Berry province’ in a nod to the famous 19th-century French architect Eugène Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc who restored many medieval monuments. Trolliet won his spurs as a leading figure of the Troubadour style in French architecture with his restoration of the Château de Romefort in the town of Ciron. To rebuild the present property, he did not adopt the Troubadour style but rather the style of the Loire Valley chateaux that was also in vogue at the time. Trolliet opted for a long rectangular dwelling crowned with tall hipped roofs of slate tiles recalling the Château de Chenonceau and the Château d’Azay-le-Rideau. The grand edifice comes into view once you have gone through the entrance gate and made your way up the long central drive punctuated symmetrically with topiary box shrubs neatly clipped into cones. The château faces east and west. Its main section has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. The adjoining square tower has a third floor in its roof space. The symmetrical elevations are rendered and punctuated with large small-paned windows fitted with wooden louvred shutters that are painted sky blue. Gabled dormers punctuate the roof of the main section and that of the square tower. Beyond the château, the drive crosses dense woodland on this estate, which covers around 30 hectares and includes a 1.2-hectare lake. Trolliet also decided to build two large lodges as foreparts of the château exactly opposite it. These two buildings are rectangular. They have a ground floor and a first floor. A third lodge stands at a right angle to one of them. This third structure has an eclectic style and recalls a train station. On the south side, a circular dovecote with a cone roof of terracotta tiles adorns the grounds. On the east side, there is a heated swimming pool. Behind the outhouses, a secondary entrance leads to a gravelled car park. Lastly, on the north-west side, there is a private lake. In the middle of this lake there is a small tree-dotted island.

    House with garden Poitiers (86)

    A renovated listed church and its 5,000 m² of grounds in a village 15 minutes from Poitiers. The church, designated 'basilica', stands out for its prominent position in the village. An avenue of plane trees marks the entrance to the grounds surrounding the edifice. Built of rendered limestone between 1884 and 1889, the church reflects the Medieval Revival architecture and other eclectic elements of a period marked by the influence of Viollet-le-Duc. It has a groundplan in the form of a Latin cross with a single nave. Its bell tower-porch, designed by the architect Alcide Boutaud, has an unfinished facade, known as a “bonding facade”, which lends it an almost Romanesque style, even though the structure adopts Gothic architectural references. Two metal spiral staircases flank the entrance and lead up to a balcony, where a large pointed-arch opening with double-glazing provides access to a fully restored organ. On either side of the nave, large galleries form a cloister which links the doorways to the chapels. Their entrances are embellished by two pointed arches and two attached pilasters. These galleries have been double-glazed and fitted with new-generation radiators. The entire basilica, including the sacristy, was included in the French National Heritage List by decree on 4 January 2011.

    Castle Vémars (95)

    A neo-Palladian chateau with outhouses, set in nine hectares of lawns and woods near Paris Charles de Gaulle airport and 35 kilometres from the French capital. Railings painted bottle green form a concave shape that is centred upon a wrought-iron gate leading into the property, where a remarkable neoclassical chateau built in 1846 stands proudly. A vast lush lawn extends immediately beyond the gate. The chateau lies further on. Straight to the right of the wrought-iron gate there is a pedestrian gate in the same style as the main gate and a caretaker’s lodge made of brick and rubble stone. The chateau’s design is neo-Palladian. The magnificent edifice has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor. The building is rectangular and made of dressed stone. All its elevations are coated with white rendering that has a slightly pink tint. A raised terrace and a series of evenly spaced columns form a portico at the top of four front steps. This portico leads to the chateau’s main entrance door. Four majestic Doric columns feature in this tetrastyle portico. A terrace lies above their capitals. This terrace is edged with an architrave and a finely crafted balustrade. Along the facade, 11 bays per floor offer sweeping views of the beautiful grounds in front of the chateau. The window ledges and their corbels are made of dressed stone. The windows are fitted with shutters, the pale blue tone of which brings out the edifice’s hues. A neoclassical pediment with three windows rises up in the middle of the facade, on the chateau’s top floor. A long row of Greek dentils underline the entablature, adding a light touch of elegance to the grand edifice. Dormers and skylights neatly punctuate the roof. The rear elevation has an architectural design that is similar to the facade. But here a distyle portico marks the entrance where a tetrastyle portico adorns the front. The chateau’s hipped slate roof is in perfect condition. Red-brick chimney stacks rise up from it. Beyond the chateau there is an annexe that looks like a grand country house. Work was carried out on the property in the late 19th century. During this phase, a farmhouse, an outbuilding and a dovecote were added in the property’s north-east corner. An outer wall encloses most of the grounds, where vast lush lawns extend, edged by broad-leaved trees. Archaeological remains may be buried beneath these grounds. The property is remarkably peaceful and soothing. Tranquillity reigns here.

    Castle Charolles (71)

    A large, 18th & 19th century, estate awaiting renovation, with a chateau and outbuildings in 14 ha of parklands, meadows and woods in south Burgundy. The current structure of the estate, standing on the site of an old Seigneury, predominantly dates from the 18th and 19th centuries. It can be reached via various private roads, including the main driveway that goes around the landscaped parklands, bringing the symmetrical facade of the chateau into view. The outbuildings, comprising two houses and spaces fitted out for reception activities, delimit a courtyard which opens on to a large, walled vegetable garden. The entire property exudes peace and quiet, away from any noise or visual pollution. However, it is in need of major renovation works and a new lease on life for its history to continue.

    Manor Amboise (37)

    On the outskirts of Amboise, in a dominant position, a 17th-century manor, its outbuildings, and its park of 2.5 hectares. The manor and its park, supported by powerful retaining walls, overlook the Loire Valley. Access by car is through a monumental gate. Built in the 17th century and modified in the 19th century, the main house is preceded by a courtyard. Located in the northwest corner, the building occupies an L-shaped plan, with each wing extended by a pavilion slightly projecting. The whole is raised over two levels, topped by a mansard roof illuminated by dormer windows. The façades, rendered and adorned with stone corner chains, are pierced by large openings, protected by shutters. A few bull's-eye windows punctuate the façade. On the garden side, the openings are flanked by solid shutters or fitted with bars. The roof of the central wing is made of fibrociment, while that of the side pavilions is made of slate.In front, a set of outbuildings is backed against the rock that gave its name to the estate. A French garden extends from a terrace to a pleasure pavilion. The rest of the park has a rural atmosphere, with a pasture overlooked by a wooded area.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    House with pool Bellac (87)

    40 minutes north of Limoges, in the Monts de Blond, a barn has been converted into a home with a pool and a templar house. From the sky, the property is located in a hamlet of houses built from granite. It is organized into two buildings. On one side, set back from the road, a barn was transformed into a residence in the 2000s and expanded to the south. On an adjacent plot, slightly elevated, a house in the traditional templar style was built between the 15th and 17th centuries. The main body is a large building made of light granite, with ordered windows and wooden shutters. Raised over two levels, seven bedrooms have been arranged, two of which are on the ground floor. An integrated garage, a wine cellar, and a boiler space add comfort and modernity. A large arched window, the centerpiece of the facade, hints at spacious volumes flooded with light. Stone frames and simple lintels blend with traditional woodwork. The slightly patinated tiled roof complements that of the adjoining house. Low walls, iron fences, or hedges enclose the entire properties.This description has been automatically translated from French.
