    In a city in the Marches of Brittany, a mansion from the 16th century, located in the square of a medieval castle. On a plot of approximately 600 m², the mansion and its former stables form a U-shaped plan around a south-facing paved inner courtyard. The entire property is separated from the street and the castle square by a high enclosing wall pierced with an entrance gate and a large portal. On the northern side, the house is perched on the rampart of the old fortified town, and at the top of its wall, there are two watchtowers connected by a walkway, where the view encompasses the city and the countryside beyond. Built of stone and topped with a slate roof, the main house rises four levels with a living area of approximately 326 m². The facades are constructed of sandstone rubble in beige and blue-grey tones. The openings, framed in cut stone, are arranged in bays crowned by gable windows. The western part dates from the 16th century and includes cellars, a reception level, a floor of bedrooms, and an attic level, topped with a hipped roof. The eastern part, erected in the 18th and 19th centuries, is extended by an additional level of attics arranged in the Mansard roof style. All the exterior woodwork is painted a bright golden yellow, contrasting with the night blue of the slates. Finally, a garage of approximately 46 m², built of brick and covered with a slate roof topped by three gable windows, closes the courtyard on the eastern side.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    House with pool Vila Viçosa (Portugal)

    In Vila Viçosa, Alentejo, a 23-hectare estate combining a working farm and a hotel complex with fourteen rooms.. A domain where hospitality unfolds without artifice, between orchards, olive groves and vineyards cultivated for the guests' table. The fourteen accommodations form a discreet village within the 23 hectares, complemented by a 420 m² main house reserved for the owners. Tourist activities are organised around two swimming pools, a dedicated restaurant and technical areas designed to ensure the site's autonomy. The agricultural land feeds the project: produce from the organic vegetable garden, almonds and olives naturally find their way into the kitchens. The proximity of Vila Viçosa and its location on a thousand-year-old Roman road anchor the complex in its Alentejo territory. It offers a balance between a working farm and a well-established hospitality structure, for those who wish to continue this activity or reinvent the uses of this farm-hotel focused on the authentic Alentejo.

    Manor Saint-Hilaire-du-Harcouët (50)

    A restored, 19th-century manor, in the south of the Manche area, at the crossroads of three regions. A wrought iron gate in a tall stone wall opens from the street into the property, which boasts great architectural and landscaping coherence. The manor was built in the 19th century and stands in the middle of the grounds. Its sober silhouette is marked by an adroit mixture of Art Nouveau and Anglo-Norman styles. The property’s overall balance is reinforced by the immaculate and harmonious interior decorations and fittings. The three-storey façades made of rough-hewn blocks of granite are punctuated by slight protrusions and many tall, small-paned windows through which light streams into the interior. The steep sloping slate roof is dotted with tall stone chimney stacks. Set back from the manor house, the outbuildings avoid impinging on the property’s unity. The grounds are faithful to the original landscaping design and surround the residence with carefully mown lawns, winding paths and a variety of different trees. A vast meadow extends away from the property towards the surrounding countryside beyond the river. The residence was once home to the marine painter Marin-Marie, who was a solo yachtsman and a talented illustrator. He is famous for his daring transatlantic crossings on board the Arielle yacht and for his highly accurate maritime drawings.

    House Lannion (22)

    A 16th-century half-timbered house listed as a historic monument in the historic centre of Lannion . The residence is situated in a shopping street, within the town's old fortifications, which still include around 30 half-timbered houses. Other timber-framed houses line the street on either side, as far as the market square. The plots of land are narrow, so the architecture was designed to allow as many merchants as possible to have a storefront. The house has a slate gable roof. The three-storey building comprises a shop on the ground floor and a large three-bedroom flat on the upper floors. The slightly pronounced corbelling is anchored in granite masonry walls. The frame is wood, with vertical and horizontal sections combined with framework. The timber frames are short and mark the height of each storey. Decorations are still visible on the vertical sections at either end of the building. They are marked by a short carved wooden panel topped with a lozenge. The wood is painted ochre and red. Lastly, a large three-panel window with medium-sized panes and wooden frames allows plenty of natural light into the first two floors.

    Castle Trélon (59)

    A vast brick and stone mansion with a 20th-century extension, in the middle of a small town in the Hauts-de-France region, 8 km from the Belgian border. The mansion, which takes its name from a former mendicant order in Syria, was initially built as a convent. Construction work on it began in 1724 and was finished in 1729, thanks to funding obtained by the nuns from Duchess Marie-Célestine de Holstein-Rethwisch. In 1792, in the fury of the French Revolution, the outside chapel and part of the cloisters were destroyed before the buildings were rented, between 1801 and 1863, by a private owner to the local authorities to host the police services and prison. It was then purchased in 1927 by the municipality and transformed into a hospice which was officially inaugurated in 1933. In the meantime, between 1873 and 1885, it was revamped as a stately home for the Moreau de la Tour-Godard-Desmaret family. Lastly, from 1979 to 1983, as well as in 1989, the building was modernised with an extension to the south, part of which was demolished several years ago. An entrance porch with a slate roof leads into the grounds in front of the mansion to the east. The main façade, with three storeys, stands out thanks to its brick and stone settings as well as the symmetry of its central section. In the second half of the 19th century, a scroll pediment and two balconies were added to the initial construction of 1724, on the western façade. Additionally, the main section has a half hipped slate roof dotted with hipped dormers and a chimney stack. To the north, there is a wing with a square tower topped by a slate pavilion roof with a zinc ridge cap, while to the south there is a wing with a similar roof. To the west, two flights of stone steps lead down into the grounds, which spread around the mansion over approximately 7,000 m² and include lawns and copses as well as almost 1,000 m² which can be built upon.

    A large architect-designed villa in a site overlooking La Seyne-sur-Mer, with a roof terrace and swimming pool, in 2,400 m² of tree-lined grounds. A tarmacked lane leads to the entrance of the property whose double-leaf solid metal gates decorated with wrought-iron arabesques are electrically powered. A stone-paved driveway leads up to the house’s porch to the left and a large garage straight ahead. The villa was built in 1967 and boasts living space of approximately 370 m². It is rectangular in shape and has three storeys that embrace the terraced lie of the land. The upper level is made up of vast roof terrace with more than 150 m² of space and views of the sea.

    Manor Paimpol (22)

    A 15th-century manor with reception rooms, 10 minutes from beaches on the Côte de Goëlo coast in northern Brittany. The property is nestled a few hundred metres from the local village in a bucolic backdrop. A solid grey gate of wrought iron leads into the grounds. It is framed between two granite pillars, one of which has an outdoor lamp fixed to it. On either side, a low wall and tall hedges give the property absolute privacy. The manor and its outhouses form a U shape. On the grounds, which cover almost one hectare, several spaces can be distinguished: there is an ornamental, tree-dotted garden embellished with flowers on the west side, a south-facing courtyard, and a car park on the east side. An annexe houses a covered swimming pool that looks out at the ornamental garden. And an events venue with a wooden floor adjoins an outhouse to form a large reception space. You enter the manor from a short driveway that leads from the wrought-iron gate. The edifice dates back to the 15th century, as a door surround upstairs and a spiral staircase indicate. The building has been redesigned several times over its long history. The year ‘1701’ is inscribed in the entrance door’s lintel. The dwelling is long and rectangular in shape. It has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. A gable slate roof crowns the house. The facade is made of pink rubble granite. Ashlar forms the window and door surrounds. There are many small-paned windows. The entrance door stands in a recess, beneath a rectangular window. A dormer with a triangular pediment gives character to the edifice’s west end. There is a secondary door beside a schist sundial that dates back to 1740. A cavity in the facade once formed an alcove for a dog. Opposite, there is a dome-covered well crowned with a granite cross. Pale gravel covers the courtyard. Wisteria grows up the facade.

    Apartment with terrace Avignon (84)

    In Avignon, on Place Crillon, in an 18th-century mansion, an entirely renovated apartment of approximately 170 m². Nothing, except for the grand classicism of the facade, indicates the presence of this mansion. The sober design of this architectural façade seems to have the sole mission of showcasing Thomas Lainé's masterpiece, the 'Ancienne Comédie'. Its facade, dominated by a radiant head of Apollo, is adorned with four Ionic pilasters supporting an entablature with a triangular pediment and a balustrade enhanced by four vases simulating fire pots. The theatricality of the elevation imposes its law on the entire square, with this baroque jewel being the dominant element. It has often changed its purpose but has always retained its luminous sculpted facade, directly visible from some windows of the apartment. Far from being frozen in time, this architecture resembling an opera set is now animated by a multitude of restaurants and cafes that, when summer arrives, become one of the favorite refuges for festival-goers. The mansion, rather low, in compliance with regulations that mandated not exceeding the height of the city walls, rises two stories under a crenelated cornice highlighting a roof of canal tiles. It presents its cut stone facade under a broken white plaster. Transformed in the 19th century for commercial use, the former porch and the grand courtyard are today occupied by a restaurant with a terrace. The building comprises one apartment per floor, making it a small condominium. Located on the second floor, this apartment is organized on one side into a kitchen and a bedroom with a mezzanine, which overlook the square, and on the other side into a spacious living room, three additional bedrooms, and three bathrooms which face south away from the square with its terraces.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    Apartment Paris 4ᵗʰ (75)

    In the heart of Île Saint-Louis, with a clear view and a perspective over the Seine, a carefully renovated 20 m² studio, very bright. Located in a modest 18th-century building with a rendered façade and bordered by string courses, the studio is situated on the fourth and top floor. It covers approximately 25 square meters of floor space, nearly 15 m² according to the Carrez law. The common areas, decorated with antique fireplace plaques, are served by a wooden staircase with a balustrade, a testament to the building's historic character. Facing directly south, the apartment benefits from abundant light as well as a view over the Seine. During the renovation, the architect chose an optimized design in a single volume. A fitted oak kitchen has been discreetly integrated, while a shower room with toilets is placed behind a glass wall, embodying both functional and aesthetic spirit. The old tiles on the floor harmonize with a second-hand stone fireplace from a castle, adding a touch of nobility under a framework with exposed beams. Every detail has been carefully considered: custom closets, sculpted 19th-century doors, and ornate cast iron radiators. A wardrobe blends discreetly near the shower room. The recent renovation provides the advantage of a comfortable living space, with an energy rating of D.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    House Chilly-Mazarin (91)

    A former 1850s manor house with gardens, in the Île-de-France region, 18 kilometres south of Paris. Behind an elegant entrance, made up of a wrought-iron entrance gate and pedestrian gate, a small, paved path leads to the residence and the first walled garden dotted with many types of trees, notably an American black walnut tree. With its large expanses of pink cladding and green wooden shutters, the “Villa Rose” is emblematic of classical Parisian architecture. As for the symmetrical, two-storey façade with three vertical rows of windows and, in the centre, the moulded splay of the entrance door topped by an oculus, it owes much to the gentleness of Italian architecture. On each level and in each vertical row, there are large-paned windows with period or restored frames The other façade overlooks the second garden and possesses an entrance below a small awning. Lastly, next to the house, enclosed by adjacent fencing, there is a lean-to that has been converted into a small outbuilding.

    Farmhouse Villers-cotterets (02)

    An isolated farmhouse with approximately 1 600 m² of buildings and 8 hectares of land on the edge of the Retz forest . The property, on the edge of a wooded area, today comprises a manor house built in 1926, a servant’s house and large farm buildings built around a vast enclosed courtyard, typical of the large rural farms in the Île-de-France region. Fields and woods stretch as far as the eye can see around the farm, in a peaceful, open setting. The farm buildings are solid and simple with their stone structures and flat-tiled roofs. Stables, barns, sheds and various outbuildings cover almost 2 000 m2 of floor space. The homogeneity of the materials and the rigour of the lines unify the site, despite the reconstruction that took place in the early 20th century. Further on, an additional building, on its own on the edge of the site, gives an idea of the original size of the farm. The site feels coherent, both in terms of proportions and in the choice of materials used.
