Castle Fontenay-le-Vicomte (91)

A 19th-Century Château with a Private Chapel and 5.8 hectares of Park land : 35 kilometres south-east of Paris, in the heart of the Essonne Valley and on the doorstep of the Gâtinais Français Regional Natural Park, this remarkable 19th-century château embodies the elegance and refinement of France's grand country estates in an unspoilt natural setting. Built around 1850 on the foundations of an earlier château, the property offers approximately 1,200 sqm of living space spread over four levels. Beyond its majestic entrance gates, a formal courtyard leads to a classical façade inspired by 18th-century architecture, where sculpted pediments, stone sphinxes, elegant columns and corner towers create a residence of exceptional character. Inside, time seems to stand still. A succession of grand reception rooms showcases original wood panelling, Versailles and Hungarian point parquet flooring, marble fireplaces, ornate mouldings and gilded details. The true jewel of the estate is its beautifully preserved Neo-Romanesque private chapel, featuring original stained-glass windows, a painted star-lit ceiling and remarkably rich period decoration. The upper floors accommodate more than twenty bedrooms, offering exceptional potential for a prestigious family residence, an exclusive hospitality project or an elegant venue for entertaining. The estate extends across nearly 5.8 hectares of landscaped grounds, combining formal gardens, centuries-old trees, woodland, a natural spring, a historic washhouse and sweeping views across the valley. Every path reveals a new perspective, creating an atmosphere of rare tranquillity. The outbuildings complete the estate perfectly: fully restored Neo-Gothic stables converted into a charming 200 sqm residence with swimming pool, an additional wing currently being renovated, and a caretaker's house divided into three independent apartments. Located just 40 minutes from Paris, five minutes from the RER station and 40 minutes from Orly Airport, this exceptional property seamlessly combines heritage, elegance and the French art of living. A truly rare estate where history, architecture and nature come together to create an extraordinary place to call home.

Castle Morigny-Champigny (91)

An 18th-century mansion renovated as a hotel, with outbuildings, in 11-hectare wooded grounds boasting a pond, 1 hour 30 minutes from Paris. The estate comes into view at the end of one of the three avenues lined with hundred-year-old elm trees that lead to the grounds and main residence. In the inner courtyard, the property is demarcated by the historic perimeter as already indicated in 1708: “on one side, there is a canal of running water and on the other, five to six acres or so of thickets making up the grounds of the said mansion, which is enclosed by walls, except for the part running along the length of the said canal which serves to delimit the edge of the property at this point”. The residence is made up of a main dwelling flanked by two pavilions and an annex extending forward from one of them. The façades are covered in beige rendering and enhanced by quoins as well as a number of belt courses and moulded cornices that underline each level. The main elevation boasts six vertical rows of openings. The central avant-corps features a large amount of rusticated masonry topped by a triangular pediment with a blocked bullseye window. The steep sloped slate roofs are punctuated with dormer windows. A stoop with a rounded double staircase leads up to the entrance. Lastly, visually aligned with the residence, there are modern outbuildings at the edge of the property, as well as a pond in a wooded area, all within the uninterrupted land of the estate.
