Set in an unspoilt environment, this former 12th-century seigneurial residence offers a rare combination of heritage, authenticity and contemporary comfort. The earliest records of the property date back to the 12th century. Once associated with the Order of St John of Jerusalem, the house still retains many of the features that bear witness to its history, including thick stone walls, a tower, a spiral staircase, period fireplaces, traditional stone fireplaces, exposed beams and original timber floors. The property has undergone a comprehensive and highly respectful restoration, including the complete renewal of the roof, restoration of the tower and careful preservation of many historic architectural features. The works benefited from heritage conservation grants and were carried out in accordance with the relevant requirements and in consultation . The restoration was designed to preserve the character and authenticity of the house while providing the comfort expected of a contemporary home. A WARM AND AUTHENTIC INTERIOR The house offers approximately 160 sqm of living space over several floors, together with attic space offering further potential. The lower level includes a stone-vaulted room, followed by access to the main house via a remarkable interior wooden spiral staircase, one of the property's most distinctive architectural features. A second entrance is reached from the garden by an external stone staircase leading to a small stone terrace, providing direct access to the principal living level. This floor is devoted to the living spaces. The fully equipped kitchen retains its large traditional stone fireplace, while the dining area features another period fireplace and generous proportions suitable for entertaining. The adjoining sitting room is particularly appealing, with its exposed beams, original timber floors and fireplace, creating a warm and timeless atmosphere. Together, the kitchen, dining room and sitting room provide approximately 60 sqm of living and entertaining space. Upstairs are two bedrooms, including a spacious room of approximately 40 sqm, together with a bathroom featuring twin washbasins and a large walk-in shower, plus a separate WC. The attic space, currently unused, offers sufficient height to consider, subject to the necessary permissions, the creation of additional bedrooms and a bathroom. A PRIVATE WALLED GARDEN AND SWIMMING POOL The enclosed private garden extends naturally from the house and provides a peaceful and intimate setting. A 5 x 2 m swimming pool, installed in 2019 and equipped with a counter-current swimming system, is discreetly integrated into the garden. A shaded terrace and a covered, enclosed garage complete the outdoor areas. IN THE HEART OF AN EXCEPTIONAL TOURIST REGION The property is ideally positioned for exploring the remarkable heritage and landscapes of the Aveyron.

The Lot Valley, medieval villages, historic castles and the many natural and cultural attractions of the Aveyron further enhance the appeal of this exceptional setting. The property would be equally suited to a main or second home, while also offering excellent potential for seasonal rental, given its historic character and the wealth of tourism in the surrounding area. A rare and beautifully restored historic residence, where medieval architecture, preserved original features and contemporary comfort come together to create a truly unique home steeped in history.

A chateau from the Middle Ages & Renaissance, on 15-ha grounds, overlooking the Goul River valley, on the border of the Cantal & Aveyron departments. Erected in the middle of its grounds and nestled in a setting completely sheltered from all disturbances, the chateau, a national Historical Monument, stands above the valley, which marks the historic boundary between Upper Auvergne and the former Rouergue province. Accessible from its eastern side, where at one time there was undoubtedly a drawbridge, the chateau’s origins date back to the Middle Ages when the site was a simple keep surrounded by an enclosure with five to seven defensive towers. Today, the only thing that remains from this era is the first keep to the west, a second tower built in the 15th century to the east, as well as one of the defensive towers, now shortened and surrounded by patios and plenty of open spaces. As for the central dwelling, built in the Renaissance between the two square towers, its southern façade features many mullioned windows and breath-taking sculpted décor around its main entrance, while, to the north, an additional wing was added in the 18th century. Inside, the layout of the rooms has not been modified and, besides an immense Italianate staircase, the ground floor contains a former lower hall, which is now used as a dining room, a small TV room, two kitchens – the original and a more recent one – as well as a door to the cellars and garage, whereas the first floor features a former lords’ hall, a small adjacent sitting room, two bedrooms and a shower room with lavatory. In addition, the door to the chateau’s 18th-century wing gives on to a series of three adjacent bedrooms with washbasins, a bathroom and a separate lavatory, while the second floor includes the immense 'Queen’s bedroom', a study, two more bedrooms and a shower room with lavatory. As for the doorway on the half landing, it opens on to a shower room and an attic in the 18th-century wing, whereas the third floor is made up of an exhibition hall, followed by a guest bedroom, former staff rooms and an interior dovecote. Lastly, a small staircase leads to the attic with an immense room boasting breath-taking wooden rafters and two fireplaces, which precedes an oratory and the upper sections of the two towers, while a caretaker’s cottage and a swimming pool can also be found on the property.

Located near Figeac, a Town of Art and History renowned as the birthplace of Jean-François Champollion, Château de Saint-Dau is situated in one of the most remarkable heritage regions of France. The estate enjoys a privileged setting, surrounded by rolling countryside, preserved valleys, and historic villages. Nearby are several of the South-West’s most iconic sites, including Rocamadour, the spectacular cliffside village and one of France’s most visited heritage destinations, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, often regarded as one of the country’s most beautiful villages, as well as Conques and the historic routes of the Camino de Santiago. Accessibility is also one of the estate’s key strengths. Figeac can be reached within minutes, while Rodez, Brive-la-Gaillarde, and Toulouse—the third-largest city in France and the capital of the Occitanie region—provide convenient access to major rail and international air transport networks. Dating back to the early 16th century and listed as a Historic Monument, Château de Saint-Dau has undergone a particularly meticulous restoration in recent years under the stewardship of its current owners. Their ambition was not simply to restore the château, but to return it to its former nobility while adapting it to the expectations of contemporary comfort. The original architectural features have been carefully preserved and restored with great respect for the spirit of the property. Fireplaces, wood panelling, historic joinery, period volumes and decorative details now coexist harmoniously with discreetly integrated modern amenities. The result is a rare balance between heritage and contemporary living. At the heart of the château, an elegant stone spiral staircase serves the various levels of the residence. The bedrooms, most of which have been designed as spacious suites, generally benefit from their own private sitting rooms. Each possesses its own distinct character and atmosphere, creating a warm and intimate environment suited both to family life and guest accommodation. Today, the estate offers eighteen bedrooms distributed between the main château and two independent guest houses. This configuration allows family and friends to be welcomed in complete comfort while preserving privacy for all. Outside, the park provides an especially pleasant setting. Behind the château, the swimming pool is nestled within a mature landscaped environment where centuries-old trees create a refreshing retreat during the summer months. The atmosphere is that of a gracious country estate—peaceful, discreet, and deeply relaxing. The outbuildings, which have been fully renovated, complement the property beautifully. A former nightclub, once renowned throughout the region, has been transformed into an elegant lounge and bar, creating a convivial space for entertaining or enjoying evenings with friends. Upstairs, the former barns now house a large reception hall suitable for weddings, private events, seminars, concerts, and exhibitions. This configuration gives the estate remarkable versatility. It could serve equally well as an exceptional family residence or as a hospitality and events venue, benefiting from existing infrastructure dedicated to receptions and guest accommodation. Rare for the quality of its restoration, its preserved setting, and its capacity for hosting, Château de Saint-Dau will appeal to lovers of historic properties seeking a vibrant and elegant estate, deeply rooted in one of the most beautiful regions of South-West France.

A castrum with a château, farm building and outbuildings surrounded by 13 hectares of woodland overlooking the valley, in Florac, in the south of the Lozère department. Situated in a dominant position on its rocky spur, the château with its crenelations can be seen from afar. The first foundations date back to the 12th century, but the current building probably dates back to the 15th century, when the fiefdom came under the control of the Bishop of Mende. It passed through various families through marriage and, in the 18th century, was damaged and then sold at auction during the Revolution. Acquired at the beginning of the 20th century, it has remained in the same family, who have maintained it as a holiday home until the present day. The 300-metre-long path leading to the property arouses curiosity and does not reveal its secrets until the last minute. The path opens out onto a magnificent view and the plain, which highlight the main building and the scene worthy of a painting. Built in heavy, unplastered local schist, with thick walls, the château has a certain austerity about it, typical of the Cévennes. The architecture retains characteristic traces from its origins, in particular cross windows and arched doors, while a remnant of a parapet walk enlivens the north façade. The layout of the windows is fairly regular, with ashlar surrounds and corner quoins, and small-paned windows. Built slightly below and not overlooked, the 'Bancels' farmhouse occupies the southern slope. It includes a renovated house. Finally, the small house 'la Gleyzette', with an independent access is slightly below to the west. The façades are made up of a schist bonding, only rendered on the dwelling that closes off the farm building to the west, with mostly straight windows of varying sizes. The roofs are of two slopes with lauze tiles. The uniqueness and unity of the estate can be seen immediately, and the absence of neighbours and low visibility from outside translate into peace and quiet for its occupants.

ALBI, nestled in a green setting overlooking the Tarn, the Château de Lapérouse opens the doors to a rare place, rich in history and emotions. Built between the 16th and 17th centuries, and later enriched in the 19th century, this château listed as a Historical Monument is intimately linked to the memory of Jean-François de Galaup, Count of Lapérouse, a famous navigator who spent part of his childhood here. From the moment of arrival, the charm works: a metal gate opens onto a tree-lined path leading to an elegant courtyard, a prelude to the discovery of an authentic residence that has preserved its original soul. The château is organized around vast, light-filled rooms, offering superb volumes suitable for multiple arrangements. Now operated with only 4 bedrooms, it already generates an annual revenue of around €40,000, hinting at remarkable development potential through the creation of additional rooms. Outside, two magnificent terraces encircle the property and provide breathtaking views of the park and the Tarn. These spaces, both intimate and spectacular, are perfectly suited to host demanding clients or prestigious events. The 3.6-hectare park, a true haven of peace, alternates between meadows, centenary trees, and wooded areas, creating unique perspectives over the river. Below, a swimming pool harmoniously integrates into the natural landscape, while an ancient nymphaeum fed by a spring adds a romantic and unique touch to the whole. This exceptional property of 320 m2 of living space offers a multitude of possibilities: prestige residence, seminar venue, museum, private or professional events... An ideal setting to develop an ambitious project, combining historical charm and strong economic potential. A unique place where the past meets the future, ready to welcome your most inspiring projects. The layout: Organized around an elegant U-shaped courtyard typical of the Renaissance, the château displays a brick architecture inspired by the private hotels of Toulouse, with its mullioned windows and sculpted doors. On the ground floor, the living spaces are arranged around a remarkable wooden spiral staircase from the 17th century. One discovers a vast light-filled living room/dining room, enhanced by a French ceiling and a monumental fireplace, as well as a contemporary kitchen open to the courtyard and terrace. A first bedroom with an en-suite bathroom completes this level. On the upper floor, dedicated to hosting activities, several characterful bedrooms — including one associated with Jean-François de Galaup, Count of Lapérouse — feature fireplaces, ancient ceilings, and unobstructed views. A common lounge for guests and service areas complete this warm and functional ensemble. The attic, easily convertible, offers significant extension potential, while the vaulted brick cellars add authenticity and technical possibilities.

A castle and its feudal keep with a 30-hectare estate in the heart of the Cévennes national park, in the south of Lozère. Formerly the stronghold of the Arnal family, who at the end of the 17th century owned most of the valley and the hamlet of Beaumelle, hence the name Arnal de la Beaumelle, the castle was burnt down in 1702 during the War of the Camisards. When it was rebuilt between 1730 and 1740, it became more residential. The keep still dominates the surrounding buildings and has a wonderful view over the valley. The complex consists of a castle resembling a feudal residence flanked by two towers, as well as a number of outbuildings destined for farming, including cowsheds, a shed for drying chestnuts and the remains of an old castle chapel. This mainly west-facing hilltop property commands the southern valley. Fed by two springs, the estate has developed over the last two centuries thanks to livestock activities and terraced crop cultivation on numerous sun-drenched terraces. At the edge of the stream, the property is completed by the ruins of an imposing mill powered by its water.
