Property with pool Uzès (30)
A former 19th-century food-producing estate turned into a vast family home, with enclosed, wooded grounds, truffle and olive groves and a swimming pool in Uzès. . A typical example of a farmhouse from the end of the 18th century, probably built under the Directoire or First Empire period, and whose owners very quickly decided that it absolutely had to be much more than just a farmhouse. Throughout the 19th century, alterations were carried out until the main buildings became a noble-looking architectural ensemble, just a few strides away from the National Stud. In the 20th century, transformations and extensions continued to make it more adapted to family life, resulting in a group of several outbuildings, all of which complemented each other intelligently. Today, the estate, which includes a truffle and olive grove, is home to a vast, aristocratic-style family home, “La Roseraie”, which has been converted into a comfortable holiday home with bedrooms and suites, and outbuildings that can all be lived in. A boxwood labyrinth, a common feature of 19th-century Provencal gardens, once greeted visitors in the south garden before being razed by a previous owner. It is now ready for a new lease of life. The farmhouse has also preserved a ”pouzarenque”, a fully restored bucket wheel, a rare sight in Uzège, where these waterwheels have disappeared with the motorization of water pumps. The original entrance, which opened directly onto the grounds from the road leading to the national stud farm, was completely enclosed by dry stone walls, but has been replaced by a new gate and a slightly more northerly entrance to free up the grounds. The entrance is now a driveway lined with olive trees.

Manor Montoire-sur-le-Loir (41)
A renovated 15th-century manor, with an outbuilding and 1.5-hectare grounds, located near the birthplace of Ronsard in the Loir River Valley. Dating from the Renaissance, the property, neither a national or regional historical monument, is currently located in a protected area and originally formed a hamlet with the surrounding enclosed properties. From a small country lane, a drive leads to one of the property’s five separate entrances. Once past the main entrance, there is a small pavilion, which was converted into a guesthouse, followed by the two-storey, rectangular manor house. Originally from the 15th century, its central building is topped with a local tile gable roof and punctuated by tall cross-windows. Flanked on one side by a stairway tower with a modillion frieze and a slate roof, on the manor’s other gable end, stands a more modest one-storey building topped with an ancient tile roof. With plaster-coated walls, the manor is decorated with an ashlar stone cornice under the eaves as well as tuffeau stone window and door surrounds. In addition, the frames for the house’s single- or double-glazed cross-windows have all been replaced and are safeguarded by interior shutters. Behind the house, 14 cellars have been hollowed out of the hillside, some of which once contained mushroom beds of varying depths. According to local legend, they also once communicated with the nearby Possonnière manor house where Pierre de Ronsard was born. Lastly, the property’s grounds also include a formal garden, an Italian-inspired garden, a landscaped garden, pinewoods, a dry riverbed and a pasture.

House Valence-sur-baise (32)
A recently renovated country house with large outbuildings and 7.5 hectares of grounds with a river, nestled near a picturesque town in France’s Gers department. The country house is nestled in the middle of the countryside, yet it is only a few minutes away from shops by car. The fine edifice stands in the middle of its grounds, which are made up of vast meadows, through which a river flows. Part of this river is channelled into a moat that edges the terrace in front of the dwelling. Two driveways lead to the different buildings. The first drive runs alongside the river up to a covered entrance passage by the main house. The other drive stretches from the fields to an entrance between two tall stone walls by the outhouses. A country road runs alongside the property at a lower level. The main edifice was built upon a holy mount of the local Camarade parish in the 11th century. Today, the building displays traits that are typical of country homes that were redesigned in the 18th century. Its main section is L-shaped. It has a ground floor and a first floor. A square tower with a ground floor and a first floor adjoins the main section on its west side. The whole edifice offers a 560m² floor area. A second building made of stone stands at an angle to the edifice, on the other side of its moat. In line with it there is a huge barn with looseboxes and an open-sided shelter that completes its east-facing elevation. A little further on, there is a tall L-shaped house with a ground floor and a first floor. It is waiting to be renovated. A request for planning permission has been submitted for this. The roofs of the buildings have two, three of four slopes. They are covered with barrel tiles. These roofs were recently renovated or redesigned. They are underlined with génoise cornices. The elevations are plain. They are made of rubble stone. Ashlar forms their quoins and door and window surrounds. The elevations are mostly coated with rendering, though in some parts there is pointing with exposed stonework. The country house’s elevations are punctuated with windows that are slightly arched and spaced out symmetrically. And the outbuildings have rectangular windows that are spaced out less evenly.

Land Ferreira do Alentejo (Portugal)
A property with an aerodrome and swimming pool near the city of Beja in Portugal’s Alentejo region. This vast estate just outside the small town of Ferreira do Alentejo is the promise of contemplating the golden plains of Portugal’s Alentejo region from up in the sky. In the middle of these grounds, there is the main house, which was built recently but in a traditional style that is typical of the local region. It include three suites, a fitness room and several bathrooms decorated with azulejo ceramic tilework. The rooms are adapted for both winter and summer comfort with underfloor heating and air conditioning. The rest of the property includes a caretaker’s house, a dwelling that adjoins the main house, a chapel and a large, heated swimming pool beside a tree-dotted garden. The property’s remarkable highlight is its aerodrome, which is certified with the international ICAO/EASA accreditation. This aerodrome’s runway is 558 metres long. Next to it there is a hangar that can house several aircraft. The dwelling can be lived in as a self-contained home with several bedrooms. It stands beside land that can still be built upon. The adjoining farmland is well irrigated with several wells. The whole estate would be the perfect site for a business project in tourism or for a calm retirement, less than two hours from Lisbon by road.

Manor Écouché-les-Vallées (61)
In the Orne department, on the outskirts of the Norman Switzerland region, a 17th-century farm-manor house, its courtyard and garden of nearly 7,700 m². A long driveway, 300 years old and planted with horse chestnut trees, leads to the 17th-century impregnable-looking seigniorial home, once the estate of the famous marquis d’Ango. A covered double gateway with a basket-handle arch decorated with the coat of arms of the Motte Ango family, as well as an adjacent pedestrian door open onto a grand rectangular courtyard. All around, organised in a U shape, is the central manor and its outbuildings, the tree-filled garden and the chateau’s former moats. Facing the courtyard on the southern side, the 17th-century dwelling has two floors with convertible attic space, crowned with a gabled flat tile ochre roof. It is punctuated with three dormer windows topped with triangular pediments. Its stately façades are made out of hard masonry, granite, limestone, schist, puddingstone, formed from large dressed rubble stone. The windows are aligned in vertical rows, including the dormer windows, inserted into dressed grey granite surrounds.

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.

House 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.

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 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 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 La Réole (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.

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 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.
