Seaside house with garden Penvénan (22)
A 20th-century dwelling with sea views and direct access to the beach, facing the Isle of Women, on Brittany’s Golden Gorse Coast. The property is accessible via a wide and open road, which leads to a small car park used by shore fishermen, hikers and Penvénan residents before continuing its trajectory towards the Dunes white sand beach, three minutes away by car. Nearby, the GR34 hiking trail winds its way along the coast, while the quiet neighbourhood in which the property is located alternates between main residences and second homes. Entirely surrounded by walls, the property is accessible via two entrances: a small white wooden gate as well as another larger gate, similar in style, which makes it possible to park several vehicles on the property. On the dwelling’s sea-facing side, a low wall, separating the property from a pebble beach, makes it possible to enjoy breath-taking maritime panoramas, while, on the dwelling’s street side, this low wall is extended by a hedge, which creates a natural setting that effectively shields the property from view. As for the dwelling, featuring two right-angle structures, it is topped with two perpendicular slate gable roofs and abuts an outbuilding with skylights. With its entrance hidden behind a cypress tree, the latter is arranged around a small entrance hall that provides access to two summer bedrooms with sea views. Featuring two pairs of white wooden shutters, the dwelling is partially elevated and includes a basement garage in its lower section, while besides one plaster-coated wall, the exteriors, cadenced by several hanging dormers on either side, which add undeniable charm, are built out of pointed granite rubble stone with ashlar stone window/door surrounds.

Manor Poitiers (86)
A fully renovated, 18th-century manor house, 10 minutes from Poitiers, in 2-hectare grounds with a swimming pool. A small country road runs alongside the property and leads to its two entrances. The first is made up of an entrance porch with a wooden gate, while the second possesses a wrought-iron railing gate. After the first entrance, there are garages followed by a wing in front of which a patio has been installed. The main residence can be found at the end of this L-shaped building, enhanced by an ornamental garden. The façades of the main residence are rendered, with stone quoins as well as window and door frames, while the wing boasts exposed stonework.

House with pool Tréjouls (82)
A group of buildings, including a dwelling, two small holiday cottages, barns and offices, constructed out of Quercy stone and surrounded by rolling countryside, between the Lot and Tarn-et-Garonne departments . Located on the side of a hill, the property features a little more than one hectare of land, creating a natural shoulder halfway up the slope and extending down the hillside. As for the dwelling, facing fully south and overlooking the valley, it provides unobstructed views of the Quercy hills, while, the whole complex, made up of several local limestone buildings, is gracefully arranged around a courtyard, a number of patios and meadows bordered by oaks and maples. With its simple and balanced silhouette, the dwelling is topped with a hipped roof, whereas two small holiday cottages and a group of stone outbuildings – a former stable that has now been turned into office space, as well as two open-air barns, including one with a wide covered patio, ideal for summer meals – round out this group of bucolic edifices. In addition, set back from the other buildings, a swimming pool inconspicuously hidden within the verdant vegetation not only blends in seamlessly with the rest of the garden, but is also immersed in peace and quiet. Meticulously cared for, while respecting its history, and designed as if to assimilate perfectly with Quercy’s topography and dazzling light, all of its original volumes, ancient materials and views have been preserved, while the natural colour of its stones, barrel tiles and pastel shutters dialogue with the surrounding vegetation in a delicate balancing act between architecture and nature.

House with pool Penne-d'Agenais (47)
A renovated limestone dwelling from the 19th century, its guesthouse and barn on 4.5-hectare grounds, perched up on a hill near Tournon-d’Agenais. In the peaceful valleys and hillsides of the Lot-et-Garonne department, the property includes an architectural ensemble that blends in harmoniously with the countryside, where each building was purposefully designed to complement the surrounding landscape. According to tradition, the farms in this region are located far apart from one another, at one time separated by fields, but this property only has one neighbour, practically invisible due to its placement to the north of the grounds behind a stone wall, while, from the house or the garden, located halfway up a hill, one’s gaze is immediately hypnotised by the unobstructed views of the preserved natural landscape: pastures, a few cows, and, further on, the hills of the Pays de Serre. Around the buildings, a cluster of tall trees provides a verdant counterpoint to the stone buildings’ architecture as well as a shady respite, while the dovecote, set back from the two-storey rectangular main dwelling and built out of local stone, represents an impressive element thanks to its balanced aesthetics. As for the barn, also built out of stone, it completes this bucolic tableau in keeping with the former farm’s overall functional and aesthetic feel. Accessible via two separate entrances, each one indicated by a finely crafted gate, which lead to a gravel drive bordered by expertly landscaped Mediterranean vegetation, the property’s grounds are arranged into gentle terraces, with both sunnier and more wooded areas, as well as views of the surrounding countryside, while, in places, low stone walls crop up here and there, subtle vestiges of its former agricultural past.

Castle Perigueux (24)
A noble Renaissance-era dwelling, its holiday cottage and outbuildings in a 2-hectare enclosed park overlooking the valley, within the Périgord Blanc region. Dating from the 15th, 16th and 18th centuries, the property stands on a hillside, protected by woodlands to the south and overlooking the valley to the north and west. The high north end walls of the main edifice, with sparse openings, the buttresses and the round tower of the current guest house testify to the fact that this was once a fortified castle. A tree-lined driveway leads from the entrance gate to the noble residence, while a track running alongside the tennis court meets the outbuildings and a swimming pool at the bottom of a slope. A barely visible lap pool is perfectly embedded in the park surrounding the complex. The residence is framed by two enclosed spaces, each offering a breathtaking view: the courtyard where the main entrance is located, a well topped by a pyramid-shaped roof, an outbuilding used as a garden shed, a hangar for vehicles, as well as a pool facing a low pilaster and dressed stone wall. All of these are accessed via a carriage gate, a pedestrian gate and a recently installed gate. On the other side of the residence, the lawned garden with bountiful flowers features a summer dining area under a covered patio.

Property Vertou (44)
A dwelling from the Art Deco period with Haussmannian-style interior décor and its garden of nearly 900 m², near Nantes. Located on a one-way street, the property is accessible via a wrought-iron gate, framed by square pillars, as well as a second gate, which leads to the garage, while a tall stone wall and dense hedges shelter the property from view. Built in 1931, the completely detached villa of approximately 240 m² embodies a period marked by the transition between the Art Deco movement and the first signs of modernism, which results in a two-storey building topped with a roof terrace. In addition, the dwelling faces an ornamental, grassy garden of nearly 900 m², which is completely sheltered from view thanks to dense landscaped copses and tall stone walls, while a garden shed is located to the west of the edifice.

House with pool Castillon-la-Bataille (33)
A medieval dwelling, listed as a Historical Monument, with a swimming pool and tennis court, near an 18-hole golf course and surrounded by 112 hectares, including 7 hectares of Protected Designation of Origin vineyards, near Saint-Emilion. Extending on from the Saint-Emilion plateau, the property is located in the heights of the Castillon-Côtes-de-Bordeaux appellation region, overlooking the Dordogne valley. Set back from the village, it takes advantage of its privileged position, which ensures great privacy as well as views of the valley’s remarkable environment and the surrounding vineyards and meadows. At the end of a village, the property is accessible via a private road bordered by vineyards, which then branches off into two lanes, providing access to the large wine storehouse off to one side, built during the Second French Empire, as well as, on the right, a small tenant farmer’s house, followed by several outbuildings, mostly grouped around an open courtyard, near a swimming pool and a tennis court. As for the property, it extends over more than 112 hectares of land, vineyards and forests, while vast landscaped grounds surround the medieval chateau. The latter’s partial inclusion on the list of historical monuments mentions the protection of the 14th-century dwelling, its four towers, entrance pavilion with its staircase turret, exteriors and rooftops of the other buildings that compose the edifice as well as those for the Second Empire wine storehouses, with the exclusion of the outbuildings to the west. Lastly, the contiguous vineyards guarantee great regularity for the estate’s wine production. Exclusively planted on clay-limestone hills, they benefit from natural drainage and excellent sunlight thanks to their mostly southwest exposure.

House Ligueil (37)
A renovated village house with authentic charm, a guesthouse and a tree-dotted garden full of flowers, nestled in the south of France’s Touraine province. The property’s two houses share a courtyard and garden on a walled plot that covers around 1,100m². From a village road that runs alongside the main house, a low wooden gate leads onto a drive that takes you to a courtyard between the two dwellings. From a village square, a second gate, which is tall, made of wrought iron and framed between tuffeau stone pillars, leads onto a gravelled driveway that takes you into the garden. The different buildings are separate from one another. They face east and west. There is a main dwelling, a guesthouse and a small outbuilding. Exposed stonework forms the elevations, dressed tuffeau stone forms the window and door surrounds and flat tiles cover the roofs. Each building has a terrace. In front of the guesthouse, there is a lush lawn embellished with many clusters of flowering plants and dotted with trees.

House Neufchâtel-Hardelot (62)
An 18th-century manor house and its outbuildings set in 4,000 m² of wooded grounds, just a few minutes from the beaches of the Opal Coast . A notable mention of this noble house can be found in the French Mérimée database. The manor is depicted on the 1813 land registry. A succession of different families have lived here right up to the present day. They have all endeavoured to preserve the authenticity of the manor house, which stands out for its extremely harmonious classical style. The entrance is through a white wooden gate revealing the main body of the dwelling, which stands proudly in the middle of the central lawn. The property is surrounded by greenery and the garden is laid out on either side of the residence and the outbuildings to the right of the main facade. Rectangular in plan and classical in style, the main two-storey building has a floor area of approx. 250 m² excluding the basement. The slate roof, with its broached eaves, features three hip dormers on each side and three brick chimney stacks. The main facade, rendered in white and punctuated by nine symmetrically arranged, small-paned windows with white shutters, creates a particularly harmonious appearance.

Property with pool Tarascon (13)
An 18th-century country house of 600 m², with natural swimming pool, park and 19-hectare olive-growing estate, 15 minutes from Avignon TGV station . This is a bastide with a history that is not easily unveiled. Its Provence name, which means 'to preserve and respect', may well refer to a Masonic practice that existed in 18th-century lodges but has since disappeared. And it was precisely at this time that the bastide was built, probably on top of pre-existing medieval foundations. A symbol in the centre of the park's majestic wrought-iron entrance gate adds to the mystery: a hexagram, or 'Star of David', suggests that the estate may have belonged to a Jewish banker in the service of the Avignon papacy. However, there are no official records to support this hypothesis, which has become a local legend. It should be remembered that the hexagram is a decorative figure found in Christian, Hindu, Japanese and pre-Islamic Arab architectural symbolism; the six branches of the star representing the six days of work, with the seventh day, the day of rest, in the hollowed-out centre of the geometry. The residence, surrounded by around 4 hectares of wooded parklands, is situated at the south-east end of a 15-hectare olive grove, criss-crossed by chequered tracks. Some of the earth paths run alongside one of the high dykes protecting the property from the Rhone River, which provides the entire estate with a much-envied wealth of silt and a constant supply of water. The bastide, at once an aristocratic residence and a farmhouse, displays all the distinctive features of its particular architectural style. As the construction of such a complex always takes time, the square, affluent 18th-century buildings were extended at the beginning of the 19th century by two lower adjoining buildings. Not far away, a single-storey outbuilding dating from the late 19th century, used as a caretaker's lodge, ensures from a distance that the peace and quiet of the bastide, a true 'manor house' surrounded by its estate, is preserved.

Castle Fontainebleau (77)
An impressive, 18th century chateau, its outbuildings and its parklands, just 30 minutes from Fontainebleau. The view from this chateau, standing in a dominant position, gives a vista of the Gâtinais bocage countryside. The garden laid out in front and composed of wide areas laid to lawn, gives unobstructed views over the countryside below. It is extended to the rear by a wooded section. The main, rectangular building in the centre stands facing the wrought iron entrance gates that open on to parklands spanning approx. 10 ha, one section of which is building land. A little further away, on the east side, are the outbuildings, laid out in a V-shape around a level courtyard. They have their own entrance from the village and are followed by a few utility buildings. Gravel pathways make it possible to move around and park cars.

Farmhouse with pool Cosne-Cours-sur-Loire (58)
Located 2 hours from Paris, in Burgundy, on the edge of Puisaye, an elegant country house, its park, and its swimming pool. Multiple roads wind through the rolling, verdant countryside to serve the hamlet of a few houses where the property is located. The dwelling, built in 1870 and accessible via a path, presents itself as a master house with three levels, one of which is an attic. Its main facade, facing west and composed of five symmetrical bays, is marked by numerous large-paned windows armed with wooden shutters on the first two levels. The garden level is distinguished from the floor above by finely wrought railings, as well as a molded and painted wooden door, which serves as the main entrance. Stone corner chains in white cut stone give rhythm to the facades, made of coated stone or brick. The Mansard roof, redone in 2020, is slate and punctuated by dormers, some chimneys, and a weather vane. The rear facade, facing east, overlooks the park planted with shrubs of various species and occupied by a swimming pool. A stone staircase leads to a terrace, also made of stone, near an opening that leads to a functional layout back kitchen communicating with a workshop. While the garden level classically gathers the living spaces, the floor above groups the four bedrooms of the house and their shared shower room, with the attic being occupied by a convertible loft. Finally, a small stone and tile outbuilding adjoins the house, adorned with a wisteria that runs along the facade. A straight stone staircase leads to the upper floor.This description has been automatically translated from French.

It consists of a central body raised over two levels, with window frames made of cut stone, flanked by two towers topped with pavilion roofs. Adjacent to the main residence, a long house from the 19th century and its wooden extensions house the independent apartment and the garage-workshop.

House Avallon (89)
A village house with a barn and land, awaiting a new lease of life, in the heart of Burgundy, between Avallon and Semur-en-Auxois. In the heart of the peaceful hamlet in which it is located, the house can be reached via the passing street, from which it is separated by a small wall. To the left, there is a large lawned area and a passage alongside the house leads to the rear, where there is a barn and the remainder of the land, overlooking the wooded countryside of the Morvan regional natural park. This square, three-storey house with three vertical rows of openings, was built in the 20th century in 19th-century style. The house is made of stone covered with ochre rendering and its façade overlooking the street faces to the southeast. It has rectangular windows set symmetrically around the entrance door made of solid wood, tempered glass and scroll-shaped wrought-iron. The window and door frames as well as the quoins are made of ashlar. The hipped, slate roof is underlined by a discrete moulded cornice. The house has already undergone a range of renovation works. On the opposite side, there is a modest sized veranda adjoining the façade, standing next to a small construction with more sober façades of rendered stone and a gabled roof made of interlocking tiles. The interior of this annex still awaits renovation.

Property with pool Douarnenez (29)
An elegant coastal hotel with an indoor swimming pool, a guesthouse and a 1,000m² tree-dotted garden in France’s Finistère department in Brittany. The name of this hotel – “Ty Mad” – means “good house” in Breton. The edifice has been called “Ty Mad” ever since it was built in 1924. It has hosted travelling guests ever since then. It stands in a calm backdrop – a maze of narrow streets – near a 15th-century calvary and a 13th-century chapel. Its location is both remarkable and discreet. With its 15 bedrooms, this grand building offers a sweeping view of an unspoilt coastline from its commanding position. It stands less than 100 metres from a beach. It has four floors. Given its height, the edifice looks down at the houses that surround it, yet without blotting them out. Its elevations are made of rubble stone with pointing. They are plain and bear no distinctive ornamentation, apart from sculpted wooden ledges and wrought-iron guardrails fitted in front of the tall, evenly spaced windows. The slate roof was redesigned to integrate tall, broad dormers on the north and south roof slopes. A section with a flat zinc roof adjoins the northern elevation. It has two levels and is widely glazed along three sides of its upper half, like a conservatory. Its lower half, which leads out to the garden, houses an indoor swimming pool. This swimming pool room leads straight out to the garden through picture windows. The utility rooms have two levels and stretch to the western edge of the plot, sheltered behind stone walls.

House with pool and garden Lectoure (32)
A restored sheep barn, with outbuildings and 1.5 hectares of land with a swimming pool, in the Gers area, 40 minutes from Agen and 1 hour from Toulouse. A country road leads to a group of stone houses that are overlooked by a 13th-century Gascony castle that dominates the valley. Just a few metres and a further bend separate the edges of the hamlet from the entrance to the property, via a discrete stone paved drive leading down to a grassy area where several vehicles can be parked. On the hillside, opposite the valleys of the Gers almost reminiscent of Tuscany, the buildings are so well integrated into their environment that they are almost invisible. Tucked away among the vegetation, only a small part of a roof peeks through the foliage, revealing the presence of a house. In the same alignment, two recently constructed buildings with wooden cladding are set against a backdrop of lime trees that provide shade on sunny days. They nestle into the hillside and are well integrated into the grounds. Between them, a concrete staircase leads to the upper part of the plot where the main residence and an outbuilding standing opposite can be found. Inspired by Provence, small stone walls underline the terraced garden, filled with many tree types typical of southern France. From a patio adjoining the residence’s southern façade, a flight of steps leads to a vast swimming pool area, surrounded by lush and exotic vegetation. The buildings overlook the various terraces in the grounds and approximately 1.5 hectares of land on which there is an orchard and a meadow, bordered by old trees.

House Blois (41)
A charming village dwelling with an interior courtyard, farmhouse and garden, along the banks of a river, in a lively village not far from the chateau of Chambord . Located in the middle of a village, but well enough set back in order to be immersed in total peace and quiet, the property, enclosed by old walls and hedges, is sheltered from view and completely invisible from the street. Turned towards its interior courtyard with an annexe farmhouse, followed by a garden, which descends towards the Beuvron, the famous river of Sologne, the house is accessible either directly from the street or via a pathway – with a deed of easement – through the next-door property, which leads to the interior courtyard. As for the main dwelling, with a floor area of approximately 192 m², it is built out of stone and covered with an old tile roof, while the courtyard, with nearly 400 m², includes several annexe buildings, such as a woodshed, storage rooms, a climate-controlled wine cellar, as well as a farmhouse with approximately 110 m² that faces a landscaped garden. It should be noted that all of the buildings are in excellent condition and still bear many of their ancient decorative details. In addition, another building, located on the other side of the street and facing the main dwelling, is large enough to accommodate several vehicles, while an upstairs floor of approximately 60 m², awaits its reconversion.

Castle Cazeres (31)
40 minutes south of Toulouse, a 18th-century manor house, with outbuildings in 4,700 m² of grounds. This property was built around 1760 and then rebuilt during the 18th century by the Marquis de Sers. It occupies the same site as a medieval fortress dating back to the 13th century. The rectangular building is entirely made of brick and boasts a pavilion at each of its four corners. Protruding brick cornices denote the separation between the two storeys of the edifice and underline the roof. On the façade, a semi-circular arched doorway sets the tone, whilst in the equivalent place at the rear, there is a rectangular French window. The façade faces the village square that occupies the manor house’s former domain, with views to the horizon of the green hills that overlook the municipality. In front of the edifice, the garden / courtyard is planted with rose bushes and rhododendrons, under the finely statured branches of two horse chestnut trees and two lime trees. Together, they provide freshness as well as shade in summer and light plus warmth in winter. The courtyard is surrounded by three buildings: the manor house, former stables and a hangar, forming a coherent architectural whole that protects against prying eyes and wind. Behind this brick screen, there is a second garden - the Garonne garden - which extends up to a discrete gate to the village’s church, which was the castle’s chapel in bygone days. It is framed by two mounds, most likely the former medieval moat. It is square in shape and retains subtle traces of its past as an ornamental garden, with geometric patterns and an elegant thoroughness. Two fountains - one in the garden / courtyard and the other in the Garonne garden - provide a gentle touch to the place. To the west, in a discrete corner of the Garonne garden, a swimming pool stands in its rightful place, lined with irises, rose bushes, olive trees and a few palm trees.
