    Castle Montmelas-Saint-Sorlin (69)

    In the Beaujolais, in a dominant position with a 180° view, a castle and its cellar, an old wine estate. At the bend of a communal road, an iron gate opens onto a tree-lined cavalier path that leads to the foot of the castle, overlooking the valley and surrounding lands. A wide terrace, flat and open to the plain, encircles the building and its exposed stone bases. A second gate, located between the castle and the cellar, leads through the inner courtyard to the former farmhouse of the estate, now independent. On both sides, the gaze is drawn upwards to the glazed tile roof, reflecting the sunlight and creating a visual contrast with the simplicity of the symmetrical facades. The round corner tower links the two spaces. Beyond the courtyard, the cellar, once dedicated to production, now serves as a storage area. Rectangular in shape, it is separated from the old farmhouse by a common return.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    House Chateau-gontier (53)

    A Renaissance manor listed as a historical monument with a moat, outhouses and 20 hectares of grounds, in France’s Haut-Anjou province, 25 minutes from the town of Château-Gontier. In the middle of the estate, two driveways lined with oaks and linden trees lead to a rectangular court. Different buildings stand around it. Most of the facades are more or less south-facing. On the west side, there is the manor’s old section, which dates back to the 12th century. Its height was raised in the 14th century and a new section was built on its north side at a right angle to it with a square staircase tower linking the two parts. The two rectangular wings each have a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. They are made of rubble schist and sandstone with pointing of lime and ochre sand. Slate tiles cover the roofs. Brick chimney stacks rise up from these roofs. The elevations of the two sections were redesigned in the 16th century. They are punctuated with stone-mullioned cross windows set in sandstone surrounds. The large section has decorative features that date back to the Second French Renaissance and that are sculpted in tuffeau stone: a twin dormer, pilasters, a triangular pediment and a cornice with corbels. On the east side of the court, there is a large L-shaped outhouse. And there are two annexes in line with the manor’s old section, immediately south of it. To the north of the court, there is a former moat that runs along the northern elevation of the manor’s large section. The manor and its outbuildings are surrounded by a tree-dotted garden. Beyond this garden, there is farmland divided with hedges.

    House with pool and garden Entrecasteaux (83)

    A Provence villa with two gîtes, a swimming pool and a tennis court set in 2.7 hectares of grounds in the heart of nature and in absolute peace and quiet, near Entrecasteaux . From the village of Entrecasteaux, a main road quickly leads off onto a narrow tarmac lane, lined with stones in places and set against the side of a hill. It winds through a forest of holm oaks and, after around 2 km, ends at the main entrance to the estate, which is marked by an imposing wrought-iron gate. From here, it curves round to the top of the property, which is on a plateau. Five or six vehicles can easily park to the north of the buildings, from where you can see the main features of the property: the main house, the gîtes, the tennis court and the summer dining room. The building, which is situated in a natural zone, is predominantly a single-storey villa, with a slightly raised section with an apartment which is extended by a veranda. It is well integrated into its surroundings, with windows that face south, west or north that are either small or protected by a gallery to the south, to shield against too much sun. There is also a pergola to the west. Although it was built in the 1980s, it is hard to put an age on the house as it feels like it has always been part of the Provence landscape, with its ochre walls, overhanging cornices, painted wooden shutters and covered terrace topped by solid local stone columns. The many offsets in the facade and roof avoid architectural monotony, alternating shelters and patios, creating many places to sit in the sun or the shade, depending on your wishes, the time of the day or the season. The west and south-facing terraces have lovely views of the surrounding hills and are not overlooked from outside. The stone gîtes are built around 50 metres from the main house. The tennis court is set back to the north of the property, and the swimming pool is set below the south-facing facade of the main house.

    Castle Mazerolles-du-Razès (11)

    A 19th century Mansart style chateau and its outbuildings set in 32 hectares of parklands, meadows and woods 30 km from Carcassonne . A driveway with centuries-old plane trees, bordered on either side by vast pastures, leads to the 1879 Haussmann-style chateau. The L-shaped edifice is bordered by a main courtyard on its east and north sides. The three-storey main building features extensions on either side. The left wing comprises two more modest, two-storey dwellings of similar style. To the right and slightly set back from the main building stands a rectangular three-storey tower topped by a four-pitched, slate roof with a crest, finials and crenellated white stone frieze - the same material used for the surrounds of the three large windows with carved stone mullions. Next to the tower is a chapel dating back to 1890, covered by an abundant Virginia creeper, with two tall stained-glass windows framing a heavy wooden door. At right angles, the right wing of the building houses a reception room and two flats currently rented out as gîtes (holiday accommodation). The main building and tower have slate roofs, while the gîtes and chapel are monk-and-nun tiled. There are also several outbuildings to the immediate right of the chateau, including a barn, a winery and a stable. Set in 32 hectares of parklands, meadows and woods in a dominant position, the chateau is protected from all forms of disturbance.

    Apartment Paris 16ᵗʰ (75)

    In the 16th arrondissement, facing the Mirabeau Bridge, a 140 m² family apartment oriented towards the Seine. The building, eight stories high and constructed with an angular plan, features a façade of golden and reddish brick. At the intersection of the two streets, a rotunda structures the whole. The semi-circular bays on the ground floor, the windows equipped with lintels and white stone sills, protected by wrought iron railings with plant motifs, create rhythm in the elevations. The hall, whose gray-blue metal double door opens onto a spiral staircase with light steps covered in a red carpet, has a well-maintained appearance. It includes a black wrought iron railing with scrolls, a large semicircular skylight set with golden lead strips that illuminate the stairwell, as well as an old elevator with a wrought iron cabin and woven metal grille — all meticulously preserved original elements.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    Manor L'Isle-Adam (95)

    An immense and stately Anglo-Norman dwelling from the 1930s, to be renovated, on 14-hectare grounds, thirty minutes west of Paris. Commissioned in 1938 by Aristide Quillet, a publisher, mayor of the village and a major local donor, on the site of a former farm known as “The Dwelling”, the impressive manor house overlooks the countryside from its slightly elevated in position. Facing the grounds, with its meadows and woods, and enjoying unobstructed views of the valley, its Anglo-Norman architecture, understated and well proportioned, gracefully combines limestone, exposed timber framing and a multi-pitched roof. Quillet, who was so attached to this site that he invested a significant amount of his wealth in it, created a property that still reflects the careful attention he paid to striking a perfect balance between comfort, elegance and the surrounding natural setting. As for the three-storey main building, it is cadenced by protruding foreparts, balconies and patios facing the grounds, whereas a caretaker’s cottage, stone garages and a swimming pool, on the outskirts of a clearing, are located below the manor house and off to the side.

    Vineyard with pool and outbuildings Ruch (33)

    An excellent investment - an 18th-century chateau, gites, reception room and swimming pools set in 3 hectares of grounds. In the middle of the rolling countryside typical of the Gironde wine-growing region, a long avenue of lime and lilac trees leads up to the chateau. A vast gravelled courtyard with a circular lawn adorned with a statue of a woman stands in front of the south-facing facade of the chateau. Set at right angles on the left, there is a large building, which was part of the former wine storehouse, which has been converted into a reception room with a terrace and lawn in front of it. The current occupants have created a parking space there big enough for several cars. A circular tower with a pepperpot roof stands between the chateau and the reception room. On the right, sheltered by a laurel hedge, there is a gite that can accommodate up to 20 people and a small house for two overlooking the vineyards as far as the eye can see. All the facades are Bordeaux stone, with Virginia creepers, wisteria and rose bushes. The chateau has a clay tile roof, while the tower has a plain tile roof. There are 11 windows, a French window and the entrance door, all with wooden shutters. There are two swimming pools - one behind the chateau and the other next to the gite - and 1.5 hectares of vines.

    Farmhouse with outbuildings Cordelle (42)

    In the Roannais, overlooking the meanders of the Loire, stands an 18th-century Forézienne farm, its sheepfold, and its outbuildings. The property is situated on a flat plot of about 3,600 m². Access is via an archway that leads to an inner courtyard, around which the various buildings are arranged. Typical of rural Forez architecture, the ensemble is organized according to a U-shaped plan, reflecting the original function of each space: residential house, sheepfold, stable, barn, stable, and even pigsty. Today, the property consists of a main dwelling, the former sheepfold and rehabilitated pigsty, as well as barns that have preserved their original volumes. The stone facades, ancient frameworks, and the layout of the buildings testify to the agricultural past of the place. Facing east, south, and west, the farm receives abundant natural light throughout the day.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    A manor with outbuildings and a 15th-century chapel, listed as a Historical Monument, with 10 hectares of land, between the Touraine and Berry regions.

At the end of the large automatic wrought iron entrance gate, flanked by two pillars, a driveway leads to a parking area for vehicles, facing the tall metal doors at the back of a barn-like outbuilding, as well as a vast courtyard bordered by stone walls. Two buildings reveal themselves on either side of a gravel courtyard, decorated with a long rectangular pond and an olive tree.

    House with terrace Saint-Rémy-de-Provence (13)

    At the foot of the Alpilles, nestled in an ancient abbey, a residence with a courtyard to enhance and elevate. The facade of the house faces the main square. The property includes on the right a square defensive tower made of dressed stone, with an ogive arch porch at its base. On the left, the corner tower, part of the neighboring property, is another witness to the former fortified enclosure. The heavy wooden gate of the square tower, wide enough for a carriage and punctuated by a door for pedestrians, provides access to the residence. Above, a broken arch precedes another arch, in full center, illuminated by an ancient lantern. The tower overlooks the dwelling, whose facade is made of rendered stone with two levels of elevation, under the almost flat roof of canal tiles. The main entrance is through the door fitted with a so-called "fly" flyscreen flanked by two windows topped by two more, shifted. Partly and temporarily livable during the planned renovation works (structural work and finishing work), the house covers an area of approximately 110 m², to which the future buyer can add the more than 70 m² occupied by the attic. A courtyard, of approximately 60 m², and a terrace, of nearly 30 m², add the pleasure of outdoor living in a very favorable climate all year round.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    Private mansion with garden Valognes (50)

    An elegant 16th and 18th-century private mansion, its outbuildings, courtyard and tree-filled garden, in Valognes on the Cotentin peninsula. Set back from the street, the property faces a wide courtyard, accessible via an impressive solid iron electric swing gate. As for the edifice, its front door is placed in the middle of its façade, whereas the former outbuildings, with their own entrances, are placed at right angles on either side of the courtyard. Behind, the dwelling’s western exterior faces a pleasant tree-filled garden, while, set within one of the property’s tall walls, wooden double doors provide a side entrance accessible from a tree-filled chase. Built in the late 16th century, when Valognes was torn between the partisans of the Holy League and the Carentan Protestants who were laying siege to the town, this stately private mansion is made up of a central main dwelling flanked by two right-angle wings that close off the cobblestone courtyard. To the southeast, an archway opens onto a small annexe courtyard where two outbuildings are located, one of which is crowned with a corbelled pepperpot tower, and, directly opposite, two arrow slits in one of the central building’s walls still bear witness to this chaotic period of upheaval. As for the dwelling’s initial appearance, it was altered in the 18th century in order to accommodate a noble family. Partially constructed out of rubble stone and topped with a hipped roof punctuated by three dormer windows, the dwelling is also built out of “Valognes” stone, a sandy limestone that is both easy to manipulate and includes a large quantity of fossils. On either side, the four-storey main building, including an attic level, is cadenced by many wide casement windows, whereas, on the garden side, they overlook an immense conservatory, which is used as a winter garden or a summer dining room. To the west, facing the garden and adjacent to the conservatory, a small masonry structure, topped with a single-pitch roof and one window, contains the house’s staircase, while, to the south, a patio provides breath-taking views of the city’s rooftops.
