House Saint-Gengoux-le-National (71)
A medieval, 15th-century, half-timbered house, in south Burgundy, not far from the abbeys at Cluny and Tournus. All the building has been fully renovated under the supervision of an architect specialised in heritage and under the control of heritage agency Bâtiments de France. Such was the quality of the work carried out that it received a French heritage label from the Fondation du Patrimoine agency. Furthermore, during this work, it was possible to confirm the origins of the building as being from the first quarter of the 15th century (1407-1427) thanks to a dendrochronological study. In respect for the past, no visibly anachronistic materials were used in the renovation and the building is made up of wood, stone, earth and glass.

House Saint-lo (50)
Perched in the hills of the Vire Valley, with 22 hectares of land, a listed chateau from the 13th and 15th centuries. On the outskirts of the city, a long tarmac driveway lined with horse chestnut trees descends towards the property’s entrance. Gradually, the landscape becomes less and less urban and the lawns on either side of the road become more expansive. The road leads to a wrought-iron gate supported by two solid schist rubble columns, extended on either side by low walls topped with fencing. Nearby, a chapel stands on a hill. On one side, the driveway runs along the length of an outbuilding, which is used as a garage, before reaching a square tower. The chateau stands on a promontory, with, as its background, the woods, which blanket the flank of the small valley and fields that border the Vire River. The fortress was built along the edge of a cliff overhanging the river by about twenty metres. Impregnable to the north, it was protected to the south by walls, towers and a drawbridge, which were destroyed in the 19th century. Today, the edifice is composed of the vestiges of an imposing construction and a wing built at a right angle to the body of the main building. Constructed out of schist rubble stone, it was built over three levels, including the attic space. Hipped dormer windows punctuate the slate roof on the side facing the Vire River. To the south, the front entrance is framed by columns, which support a straight lintel and triangular pediment. A three-sided, slightly projecting, tower houses the interior spiral staircase. It is topped with a triangular dormer with an oval oculus. A second round tower with a pepperpot turret roof is attached to a corner of the building. The mullion and cross-window surrounds are in granite ashlar stone. On the exterior corner of the two main buildings, a square extension with a slate hipped roof was built over two stories.

House Azeitão (Portugal)
On the outskirts of Lisbon, in a natural park and near the beaches, a 16th century palace and its 42 ha estate. This is a solitary palace in the mountains, facing the immensity of the Atlantic. At the highest point of the Serra de Arrábida, this 16th century sanctuary was built by Madalena Giron, second duchess of Aveiro and devotee of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. The 42-hectare estate was famous for the hunting parties that brought together the nobility of Azeitão. The guests stayed on the premises and attended mass in the chapel, which was a place of pilgrimage for the inhabitants of the area. Today, the architectural complex covers approximately 3,200 m², with several halls, private areas, outdoor and agricultural areas, for a total of 30 rooms. The interior is of great elegance and has retained all its original charm. The floors are of natural stone, the ceilings of painted wood and authentic Azulejo frescoes cover the exterior as well as the interior walls. In the main hall, a genuine Flanders tapestry welcomes visitors, who come to the Palácio for social events, weddings and christenings. The complex is well worth its reputation and is only a few minutes' drive from the splendid Portinho Arrábida, considered to be one of the most beautiful beaches in Europe.

Property with pool Nantes (44)
A splendid eighteenth-century mansion near Nantes, nestled in a beautiful landscaped garden that covers over a hectare and includes a pond and outhouses. The edifice is an emblematic example of the town’s architectural heritage. It bears witness to the rich history – and anecdotes – of this delightful area south of the majestic River Loire. The property can be considered one of the famous bijou mansions that dot the countryside around Nantes. These homes were built for the pleasure of high society during the upper middle classes’ golden age: the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The house is set back from a secondary road. It stands behind a remote-controlled metal gate that is flanked by two tall square pillars of dressed stone. The outdoor entrance area is divided into two distinct sections. An initial closed court reserved for parking includes a broad asphalt driveway, lawns, and lines of evergreen oaks and crape myrtles. A second, gravelled court is fenced off with wrought-iron railings and gates. It leads straight up to the house’s entrance door. This main courtyard faces north. It is bordered with the edifice’s principal section, which dates back to 1789 and offers 500m² of living space. Two wings extend it at right angles. They contain living spaces and areas for relaxation that cover around 600m². On the south side, trees dot a landscaped garden. Some of these trees are over a hundred years old. A path edges the eastern side of the grounds and leads to a group of outhouses. A kennel, a tunnel greenhouse, and a walled, fenced-off pond complete this marvellous 12,600m² property surrounded by walls. An adjoining plot of over six hectares could be added to it.

House with garden Bayeux (14)
In Normandy, 15 km from Bayeux, a 18th-century château listed as a historical monument, within a 60-hectare estate of land, woods, and groves. Before the entrance to the village of Vaubadon, hidden behind a dense hedge, an avenue lined with a triple row of lime trees, grassed on either side, stretches out in a slow perspective that introduces the estate. It leads to the wrought iron gate, at which lies the honor court, preceded by moats. Around it, various elements of the property are organized: the walled vegetable garden and the gardener's house, the pond, the tennis court, and then the outbuildings, established around a large central courtyard. At the back, the park, listed as a historical monument, unfolds its lines to a vast pond bordered by rhododendrons. This, more than a simple embellishment, marks a transition with the surrounding countryside, like a passage between a designed landscape and nature left to a freer expression. The regularity of the openings, the height of the roofs, and the clarity of the composition characterize the ensemble of buildings. The château features a façade exposed to the southeast, facing the courtyard, whose regular order and harmonious proportions certify its classical character. Raised over two levels under the roof and resting on a semi-buried ground floor, it is organized around a central structuring body, extended by volumes added in the 19th century. The slate roofs, punctuated by dormer windows and high chimney stacks, as well as four pavilions topped with higher roofs, rhythm the silhouette and establish the presence of the residence in the landscape. This clarity of composition, the alliance between symmetry, order, and decor, earned the château its listing as a historical monument in 2012.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Apartment Paris 16ᵗʰ (75)
Paris, Auteuil-sud, a family apartment with four bedrooms and its private garden of 30 m². Built in 1926, the real estate complex stands out for its sober architectural lines. The main entrance reveals an elegant, guarded, and secure hall. In contrast, a more discreet metal door, located in the pedestrian street, serves as a confidential access point. With an area of nearly 150 m², extended by a private garden of about 30 m², the apartment offers unique volumes. The living room, organized in two half-levels, creates a reception space of over 50 m² structured by a few wooden steps and a remarkable ceiling height, reaching up to 4 m. The layout creates smooth circulation and an almost scenographic perception of the spaces, which are naturally extended by the private garden, accessible at ground level. Isolated, it overlooks a pedestrian pathway and enjoys absolute calm, which is rare at such an address. Large openings flood the living room with abundant light. In the main entrance of the apartment, a gallery distributes all the rooms: an independent kitchen, guest toilets, and four bedrooms, two of which are exposed to the green spaces of the co-ownership, while the other two face the private garden. Three shower rooms complete the ensemble for added comfort. The whole exudes timeless elegance: a warm parquet floor, a fireplace framed by woodwork, doors adorned with mirrors, and above all, a custom oak library that spans an entire wall. It is possible to purchase a garage nearby in addition to the price.

House Baugé-en-Anjou (49)
Between Tours and Angers, with 19 ha of park and 305 ha of forests and farmland, a 19th-century castle and its outbuildings. A country road leads to an entrance gate. It opens onto an avenue that crosses the park and leads to the castle. A dirt path continues to the outbuildings, organized around a courtyard. The property dates back to the first half of the 19th century. Built of tuffeau on a hard stone base, the main residence stands four stories high, approximately 250 m² each, including an attic. The rectangular building is flanked by four octagonal watchtower turrets at each of its corners. The four-pitched slate roof is pierced at the front and back by Renaissance-style dormer windows. The main façades as well as the towers feature rustication. The cornices have modillions. Portraits adorn either side of two central doors, framed by pilasters and accessible, at the front, by a straight staircase; at the back, by a double-revolution staircase bordered with a tuffeau railing. The front façade is extended by a balcony supported by a lion's head. The ground floor is occupied by reception rooms, which have retained their original decor. Eleven bedrooms and a study-library extend across the two upper floors. The castle, oriented north-south, is in the middle of its park and close to the courtyard of the outbuildings located near the west gable. The estate includes an English-style park of nearly 20 ha, about 90 ha of farmland, and a forest area of approximately 215 ha. All buildings will require restoration work to bring them up to standard.This description has been automatically translated from French.

House Brunoy (91)
A complex of historical houses, 30 minutes from Paris, converted into rental apartments and commercial premises for lease. The complex can be seen from the street and stretches over a plot of more than 2,000-m². It is made up of four adjoining houses, set one after another. They can be reached via a gate opening onto the town’s main street as well as via a private lane. The houses are separate but all share the same architectural identity: they boast elegant façades in light-coloured cladding, adorned with red-painted joinery and half-timbering, and are topped by roofs made of tiles. The last house stands out thanks to its brickwork and a slate mansard roof. Decorative mouldings adorn the dormer windows and are underlined by a strip of patterned tiles. Lastly, the vast majority of the houses’ windowsills boast wrought-iron guard railings. Opposite the property, on the other side of the private lane, there is a right of way onto a plot of land which serves as the property’s garden and as a parking area for several vehicles.

Manor Argenton-sur-Creuse (36)
In the Berry countryside, a 16th-century manor surrounded by moats and its 22-hectare estate. From a small country road, a private driveway leads to the property, which is set away from any immediate neighbors. The house gradually reveals itself amidst meadows and ancient trees, including a towering hundred-year-old cedar. Dated from the 16th century and rising two levels topped with attics, the manor is built of coated masonry, reinforced at the corners and around the openings by frames made of barite stone, extracted from nearby quarries. The building is flanked by two towers. The entire structure is crowned with a steep roof covered with flat tiles for the main house and slate for the four-sided tower. The other tower, circular, rises two levels and is topped with a conical slate roof. Many openings are protected by painted wooden shutters. To the south and west of the manor, four outbuildings with simple volumes and two-pitched tile roofs recall the estate's former agricultural vocation. Two of them are converted into housing and a guesthouse, while the other two are used as storage or workshops. The entire manor is surrounded by moats, some of which still hold water. The estate covers approximately 22 hectares in one piece, consisting mainly of meadows, a nearly 6-hectare wood, and a pond.This description has been automatically translated from French.

House with pool and garden Casteljaloux (47)
A medieval castle with luxuriously restored, furnished bed and breakfast accommodation, 35 hectares of woods and a truffle oak grove, on the outskirts of a Lot-et-Garonne village. On the outskirts of a village with a population of around 350, this estate includes two separate buildings fitted out with taste, a small lake and a swimming pool, in 36 hectares of mainly woodland, in which there are notably 1,450 truffle oaks. A lane running due south at the outskirts of the village leads to the 15th-century residence, which is both imposing as well as welcoming in several ways and is chiefly oriented north-south. The entrance can be found past the two towers and bailey and can be reached via a large stoop with two flights of steps, in the centre of the main façade. This four-storey castle boasts immense cellars on the garden level and forms a quadrangular shape. It is made of rendered stone topped by a roof of half-round tiles and is surrounded by partially destroyed walls. It was transformed into a more modern edifice thanks to renovations that left their mark in the 18th and 19th centuries, not forgetting a more recent interior restoration. The current occupier, an interior decorator from America, has provided all the necessary comfort and decoration for a pleasant life within its walls. The approximately 3-metre-high bailey had up to four towers in the past, one of which is separated from its twin sister by a large patio and still possesses its conical tower. The windows of the residence and the watch towers have been altered to take advantage of the surrounding countryside. The farm buildings situated to the north and west of the castle possibly date from the 19th century, as might the small, converted chapel built to the west of the residence. These outbuildings have been transformed into a separate house. A stone well stands in the middle of the paved courtyard, which is surrounded by hundred-year-old trees dotted around the vast meadow. Lastly, nearby there is a recently built swimming pool with stone decking surrounding it.

House with pool Mont-de-Marsan (40)
In the Armagnac region of the Landes, a charming Gascon manor house in good condition with its outbuildings, surrounded by 1.82 hectares with a swimming pool. The property is accessible from a small rural road, which runs alongside a stone wall punctuated by two pavilions and lined with a row of old plane trees. The main entrance is through a pigeon loft-porch, providing a direct perspective on the manor house, positioned perpendicularly to the vast outbuildings (not to mention a woodshed and a barn located away from the main built ensemble). The only residence, the primary house, which is two stories high and topped with a double-sloped tile roof, follows a rectangular plan. Facing east, its main facade is bordered by a large terrace while its west façade is lined with a garden, both featuring straight openings with dressed stone frames. The adjoining outbuildings are connected to the Gascon house by a small covered passage that also protects a well. Built along an east-west axis and connected by a third of their common gable, they each present a long facade facing the Pyrenees, in front of a very extensive grassy parterre. Framed by dressed stones or bricks, their openings are straight, with a low arch or a full arch, and their roofs are two-pitched with flat or channel tiles.This description has been automatically translated from French.

House Bordeaux (33)
A historical flat, with 75 m² and two bedrooms, in a 17th-century building, not far from Bordeaux’s Great Bell. The flat is located within a national Historical Monument building, built in the late 17th century. The elaborate building, which was reorganised many times, is laid out around a central edifice facing the street, which is, in turn, supplemented by a small interior courtyard and an immense garden-courtyard bordered by a right-angle wing. As for its current façade, built in 1771 by the Laclotte brothers, upon the request of Joseph-Michel de Montaigne, it conceals the original buildings, constructed around 1697-1698 in all likelihood by the Roumilhac master masons. On the ground floor, a stately, open gallery features three rusticated stonework arches, topped with a wraparound balcony supported by corbels and safeguarded by a baluster guardrail. In addition, the private mansion also stands out thanks to its wide dog-legged half-turn staircase, the walls of which are cadenced by small niches, while the flat, with approximately 75 m² and two bedrooms, is located on the second and last floor of this breath-taking building.

Manor Lanton (33)
A dwelling from 1900 surrounded by wooded grounds, partially classified as “Remarkable Landscape”, near the Arcachon Bay waterfront. Characteristic of the shores of Arcachon Bay, this dwelling from 1900 is surrounded by more than 7,000 m² of densely wooded grounds and lush vegetation. Located on the waterfront, it overlooks the coastline and provides an enchanting panorama of the bay’s calm waters, while its coastal architecture, specific to the Southwest seaside, embodies the understated elegance of holiday homes from the 19th century. With light-colour plaster-coated exteriors, typical of other dwellings in the area, cadenced by red brick window surrounds, quoins, friezes and lintels, its painted wooden balconies, pelmets, shutters and structural elements come together in a harmonious contrast of white, red and wood, one of the architectural signposts from that period. Rectangular in shape, the dwelling, with two upper stories of identical proportions, is topped with a red tile, evenly pitched gable roof, featuring wide overhangs sometimes decorated with delicate pelmets, while its top-floor dormer windows stand out thanks to their triangular pediments. Facing the great outdoors, the dwelling boasts many patios and windows in order to enjoy the mild climate, which remains protected from the wind thanks to the surrounding vegetation.

The worktops and backsplashes are made of Zimbabwean black granite. The doors of the kitchen furniture are made of light-coloured wood, creating a harmonious contrast. There are no cupboards on the top of the walls to avoid cluttering the room’s volume. A south-facing French window opens onto a small terrace.

A 17th-century dwelling with its convertible outbuildings and grounds of 1.7 hectares, on the outskirts of a village near Angers and the banks of the Loire. A country road provides access to the property’s entrance gate, which opens onto a lane that traverses a portion of the grounds, passes in front of the dwelling’s façade, before ending in the outbuildings’ courtyard, facing west. As for the grounds, they extend behind the dwelling towards the east, while the current edifice, built over older foundations, dates mainly from the 17th and 19th centuries. Facing east-west, it is made up of a central three-storey pavilion, including one level under the eaves, and two single-storey side pavilions. With mostly dual-aspect rooms, its slate hipped roofs are punctuated by dormer windows, whereas its wooden front doors, each decorated with a carved saltire, date from the 17th century and are topped with a curvilinear cornice and highlighted by rusticated stonework that reaches all the way to the roofline. In addition, on the first floor, pilasters support a triangular pediment adorned with a count’s coat of arms, more understated rusticated stonework was used to draw attention to the back door and all of the dwelling’s exterior architectural details – rusticated stonework, cornices, quoins, dormers and window/door surrounds – were constructed out of tuffeau stone. Last, but not least, the property features two outbuildings, built later during the 19th century, the larger one of which could be easily converted, while the grounds also include a swimming pool as well as a small pavilion, nestled within the grounds and partially enclosed by a wall, which has been transformed into a guest cottage.

House with pool and garden Avallon (89)
A country manor with six hectares of grounds, transformed into tourist accommodation with gîtes, beside the beautiful Morvan regional nature park in Burgundy. The property used to be one of the four fiefs that were part of the Coutarnoux seigneury. It is now the last remaining representative of this former seigneury. Today’s buildings were probably built upon a medieval site. They are the last reflection of what a local nobleman built in 1775. The estate looks down over a wooded valley, around which lush hills, pasture and forests stretch as far as the eye can see. The bucolic atmosphere that reigns here is completely calm, recalling the name of the river that edges the property: the River Serein, ‘serein’ meaning ‘serene’ in French. You reach the property via a lane that climbs up a hill. There are several driveways. Two of them lead into the grand courtyard from the north and south sides. The main house and the gîtes stand around this court. The third driveway, marked with signposts, takes the clients straight to the car park.
