Listed castle Grilly (01)
A rare opportunity combining historic heritage with approved real estate development potential, with no further planning procedures required. In the heart of the charming village of Grilly, just minutes from Geneva and its international airport, this remarkable listed château, protected as a Historic Monument, has benefited from a high-quality restoration and enjoys an exceptional heritage setting. The property currently offers approximately 518 sq.m of living space arranged over two levels, complemented by more than 200 sq.m of additional convertible space on the top floor and in the attic, as well as an independent caretaker’s house. A key asset of this unique estate in the Pays de Gex is the granted building permit for the construction of an elegant residential building designed to recreate the estate’s former historic farmhouse, which disappeared several years ago. Designed by a French architect in close collaboration with the French Heritage Authorities (*Architectes des Bâtiments de France*), the project fully respects the site's architectural and historical identity. The approved development provides for the creation of four exceptional apartments, each occupying an entire floor and benefiting from generous living areas: * Garden level: 4-room apartment of 139.86 sq.m with private garden * First floor: 5-room apartment of 204.60 sq.m with terrace * Second floor: 5-room apartment of 196.33 sq.m with terrace * Attic level: 3-room apartment of 118.55 sq.m with terrace Each residence will benefit from private cellars, storage facilities, dedicated parking spaces, and a shared bicycle storage room. The completed architectural ensemble will create a harmonious estate where heritage and contemporary living meet with elegance. The Roman tower, remarkable roofs, chimneys, staircases, and listed historical features give the property a rare and authentic character. This unique property offers several possibilities: a prestigious private residence, a heritage enhancement project, or a high-end residential development in one of the most sought-after locations in the Pays de Gex. An exceptional opportunity for lovers of historic properties, discerning investors, and heritage enthusiasts wishing to bring an ambitious real estate project to life in a setting steeped in history. The granted building permit and the extensive studies already completed provide developers and investors with an immediately actionable project, offering significant time savings on both administrative and heritage approval processes.

Listed castle Fareins (01)
A 17th-century chateau and its 39-hectare estate listed as a historic monument 30 minutes from Lyon. Built between 1608 and 1616 on a former castle motte acquired by Jean Sève, Lyon's Receiver General of Finances, and accessible via a drawbridge, the chateau's architecture is distinctive due to its perfect symmetry. It has three storeys, with cellars and attic space in the main central part of the building. This part is flanked on either side by two wings, each topped by a hipped roof with rolled eaves, and by two projecting corner towers topped by square-based convex arched roofs, also with rolled eaves. The north and south facades of the main building have large mullioned windows with small panes, with seven windows from the ground floor to the second floor. The slate, hipped roof of the main building features three pediment dormers to the north and south - one in the centre with an arched pediment and the others with a triangular pediment. On either side, the windows on the wings and towers are the same type and height as those on the main building. The roofs are different. Some of them need renovation - those above the towers and the central building. If the building’s shape seems is surprising and the size of the wings seems modest compared to that of the central body, it is because the body houses a very large former Calvinist temple on the second floor, illuminated by seven windows on each facade. It was one of the 'fief temples' that France tolerated on its territory after the Edict of Nantes, on condition that they remained discreet. Three dormer windows to the south and north, unique because of their unusual size and their Holy Trinity symbols, were and remain, the only external sign of this on the building. A moat surrounds the chateau and the outbuildings. The property is enhanced by outbuildings such as a caretaker's cottage and a farmhouse with a swimming pool in its walled square courtyard. Lastly, a fountain consisting of a basin adorned by three marmosets from the park at Vaux-le-Vicomte stands in the centre of a circular pool, beyond a large terraced flowerbed, in front of the chateau’s south facade.
