A 19th-century chateau and its 1.4-hectare grounds, on the banks of the Yonne River, in Burgundy. Having returned from South Africa where he made his fortune, the commissioner of the Chateau de Belle-Rive had it built in 1885 on the foundations of a former inn. Inspired by Neo-Gothic and Renaissance-style architecture, the holiday dwelling has preserved its character, thanks to its recent and large-scale renovations, which has made it one of the most notable landmarks in the vicinity.
Surrounded by wooded grounds, of approximately 1.4 hectares, partially bordered by the left bank of the Yonne River, the three-storey dwelling, including a floor under the eaves, enjoys a peaceful setting as well as enchanting views of the river, the valley and its wooded hillsides, while the property itself is accessible via a street from the village, the centre of which is within walking distance, followed by an impressive wrought-iron gate. Past the former caretaker’s cottage and at the end of a driveable lane, one comes face to face with the dwelling, framed on either side by two centuries-old sequoias, whereas, oriented east/west, it was designed with an elegant and, yet, human-sized silhouette.
In addition, a glass-enclosed gallery, spanning two floors of the chateau’s central structure, is used as the entrance hall, while the living areas are turned eastward towards the garden and the banks of the river. As for the chateau’s inhabitable areas, they extend over approximately 490 m², whereas, in the distance, the last suspension bridge spanning the Yonne, recognised as a national Historical Monument, is visible from the property.
