Probably one of the most beautiful chateau in northern France, this magnificent building is located near Avesnes sur Helpe, in the heart of the Avesnois Regional Park, a few kilometers from Belgium and less than an hour from Lille and Brussels. The first traces of its eventful history date back to the 12th century, but it was around 1710 that the architect of the King's Buildings, Chevalier Pierre Bady, Lord of Aymerie, built the modern version. Heavily damaged and partially abandoned after the Revolutionary Wars, it was restored in the 19th century by its then owner, the Marquise de Nédonchel, who added an English-style park and made it her country residence. Today, remarkably restored and set in the middle of an estate of over 18 hectares consisting of woods, meadows, and ponds, it offers its character and charm to lovers of peace, nature, and space. With a living area of 2,000 m², the main body of the chateau is spread over three floors and a large basement, all served by a lift. The ground floor is dedicated to welcoming guests and entertaining, with its entrance hall, large dining room, veranda-living room, library, piano room, billiard room, and club-style lounge bar. The kitchens, the breakfast room or everyday dining room, the pantry, the wine cellar, and the technical rooms are located in the basement. The first floor is divided into four independent suites, each comprising a bedroom, bathroom, and small living room, as well as a children's suite, all arranged around a large central hallway. The second floor consists of the current owners' apartments, which open onto open-plan living areas with high ceilings, and also includes a gym, a jacuzzi, and a sauna. Outside, outbuildings and an old farmhouse offer plenty of space for conversion, as well as stables, several workshops, and a garage for storing classic cars, completing the property. The grounds in front of the chateau feature a helicopter landing pad. In conclusion, this chateau, listed as a Historic Monument, is much more than a residence; it is a way of life, an invitation to luxury and tranquility, at the crossroads of France and Belgium. A unique place where prestige, comfort, and serenity come together, ideal for an exceptional private residence, a high-end hotel project, or prestigious events.

The property also has a functional helicopter landing pad, a particularly rare feature for a private residence of this importance, offering direct and privileged accessibility to the estate. A CASTLE BURSTING WITH HISTORY The site of Dourlers has an ancient history. A first castle is documented as early as the Middle Ages. The current building has its origins in constructions undertaken in the early 18th century, before undergoing various transformations and restorations over the centuries. The domain was notably adorned with an English-style park in the 19th century, contributing to the exceptional landscape identity of the place. Today, Château de Dourlers retains the special atmosphere of great historic residences while providing spaces designed for contemporary and comfortable living.

These spaces offer a framework particularly suited for large private receptions, family gatherings, or intimate events in a historically rich environment. FOUR SUITES AND A CHILDREN'S SUITE The first floor is dedicated to private spaces, housing four suites, each benefiting from its own layout with a bedroom, private lounge, bathroom, and office space.

A vast brick and stone mansion with a 20th-century extension, in the middle of a small town in the Hauts-de-France region, 8 km from the Belgian border. The mansion, which takes its name from a former mendicant order in Syria, was initially built as a convent. Construction work on it began in 1724 and was finished in 1729, thanks to funding obtained by the nuns from Duchess Marie-Célestine de Holstein-Rethwisch. In 1792, in the fury of the French Revolution, the outside chapel and part of the cloisters were destroyed before the buildings were rented, between 1801 and 1863, by a private owner to the local authorities to host the police services and prison. It was then purchased in 1927 by the municipality and transformed into a hospice which was officially inaugurated in 1933. In the meantime, between 1873 and 1885, it was revamped as a stately home for the Moreau de la Tour-Godard-Desmaret family. Lastly, from 1979 to 1983, as well as in 1989, the building was modernised with an extension to the south, part of which was demolished several years ago. An entrance porch with a slate roof leads into the grounds in front of the mansion to the east. The main façade, with three storeys, stands out thanks to its brick and stone settings as well as the symmetry of its central section. In the second half of the 19th century, a scroll pediment and two balconies were added to the initial construction of 1724, on the western façade. Additionally, the main section has a half hipped slate roof dotted with hipped dormers and a chimney stack. To the north, there is a wing with a square tower topped by a slate pavilion roof with a zinc ridge cap, while to the south there is a wing with a similar roof. To the west, two flights of stone steps lead down into the grounds, which spread around the mansion over approximately 7,000 m² and include lawns and copses as well as almost 1,000 m² which can be built upon.

Located 10 minutes from Lille downtown, in a peaceful and green setting in Loos, this remarkable château will appeal to lovers of historic residences and character properties. Offering generous volumes and strong renovation potential, this property combines architectural charm, heritage, and authenticity. From the moment you enter, the château reveals all the charm of period features through its wood paneling, original parquet floors, exposed beams, and impressive ceiling heights. The ground floor includes a vast and bright living room with generous proportions, an elegant reception dining room, and a kitchen. An old chapel, directly accessible from the living room, adds exceptional character to the property with its brick vaults and preserved historic architecture — a true testimony to the estate’s rich past. Upstairs, a landing leads to three bright bedrooms and two bathrooms, offering spacious accommodation and numerous layout possibilities. On the top floor, a large convertible attic completes the property. This space, which requires renovation work, could accommodate various projects depending on needs: additional bedrooms, an office area, or an independent suite. Outside, the tree-lined garden is ideal for fully enjoying the natural surroundings while remaining in immediate proximity to Lille. Steeped in history, the Château de Landas is believed to date back to the Middle Ages and is said to have hosted King Louis XIV during the Siege of Lille in 1667. It is also renowned for its spectacular relocation on rails in the 1960s to allow the construction of the A25 motorway — an emblematic episode in the preservation of regional heritage. A rare property combining history, charm, and significant renovation potential in the heart of the Lille metropolitan area.

One hour from Paris, 45 minutes from Reims, 15 minutes from Soissons, with quick access to the A4 motorways (30 min) and the A6 motorways (40 min), and less than an hour from Charles de Gaulle Airport — stands a rural fortress listed as a Historic Monument. A site steeped in history: The keep, founded in the early 12th century by Robert de Droizy and raised higher in the 14th century, rises to around 22 meters and dominates the Soissonnais plateau, offering an exceptional view over the region's built and natural heritage. It is surrounded by the remains of a fortified enclosure dating from the 14th and 15th centuries. In the 15th century, the château belonged to the "knave of hearts" Étienne de Vignolles, known as La Hire, a famous companion-in-arms of Joan of Arc, who acquired it through his marriage in 1436 to Marguerite David. His widow later married Jean de Courtenay, a descendant of Louis VI the Fat, in 1444. The estate has undergone a remarkable restoration. Property composition: The estate spans 950 m² of living space, set within a 4,171 m² enclosed park, complemented by adjoining farmland and woodland totaling more than 25,000 m².
