Located near the bastide town of Monségur, the village of Duras, and approximately one hour from Bordeaux and its airport, this rare property stands on the foundations of a former medieval castle, of which it still retains many original features. Surrounded by moats and accessed via an old bridge, the building clearly reflects its defensive past. The entire lower structure dates back to the medieval period, reinforcing the authenticity and historical character of the property. Beyond the gate, a tree-filled garden with mature trees provides shade and a peaceful atmosphere. A stone well is also present, recalling the site’s historical use. Inside, the house combines period features with noble materials. The spacious kitchen is fitted with solid wood and enhanced by a period fireplace. The reception room stands out with its impressive ceiling height, exposed timber framework, and stone fireplace. It is further enhanced by a finely crafted wooden staircase of generous proportions, adding to the character of the space. Terracotta floor tiles reinforce the authenticity of the interior. A more intimate lounge completes this area and includes an old bread oven, another reminder of the property's past. The sleeping area is divided into two separate sections, one on the ground floor and the other upstairs, offering a total of five bedrooms. One features oak paneling and a stone fireplace, while others retain stone walls and exposed beams. A bathroom and two shower rooms complete the layout. A storage room and an attic offer additional potential for development. Outside, the swimming pool is surrounded by several terraces, two of which are covered, one resting on stone pillars. Overall, this is a rare property with strong historical significance, offering the unique opportunity to own a place of such antiquity—a true witness to the past and to heritage.

Listed as a Historic Monument, this exceptional château is located at the gateway to the Morvan, within a site inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Set within nearly 6 hectares of remarkable parkland and gardens, it was originally built in the 13th century on the remains of a medieval fortress, and later remodelled and expanded in the 15th and 17th centuries. The estate comprises the main château, restored 17th-century outbuildings known as the “Petit Château,” a circular tower converted into a prestigious private apartment, and extensive reception areas. The property offers numerous en-suite bedrooms, elegant lounges, libraries, historic and professional kitchens, as well as wellness facilities including a heated swimming pool and a hammam. The landscaped grounds, featuring a formal French garden, ornamental ponds, a kitchen garden, and direct access to the Nivernais Canal, enhance this outstanding architectural heritage, which has been meticulously restored and is protected under Historic Monument status.

If you are looking for a ‘statement’ property and love large light-filled rooms and endless views, this is the perfect place for you. This property is impressive in every way; the pristine stone façade on all sides, the spacious well-proportioned courtyard, the natural spring bubbling up from the rocks beneath the orangery, the views, the large light-filled rooms. Even the swimming pool has a private park of over 1,500 m²! There are two entrances to the property; from the front of the house, we can pass through an electric gate and drive up the approximately 500 metre tree-lined drive, catching glimpses of the chateau as we progress. For the day-to-day school or shopping runs, there is another semi-private road that arrives at the back gates, which are framed by an ancient stone archway. Once past the gates, there is ample parking in the courtyard. Here, we can access the main house through the front door, or a side door that leads to the kitchen. We enter the front door from the enclosed courtyard, into a wide hall that runs along the back of the house, leaving all the reception rooms to face the front. The front hall leads to a good-sized study with double doors leading outside. From here, we can access all the reception rooms ‘en enfilade’. This room would make an ideal library. Here too, we can access the large terrace that runs the length of the front of the house, offering panoramic views of the château park and the valley. This is the ideal spot to sit and sip an aperitif in the evening and watch the birds swooping across the sky above the rolling hills. On the right of the study is the dining room, with double aspect windows, a fireplace, and parquet flooring. Off the dining room is a good-sized kitchen with a large open fireplace, access to the courtyard and a small pantry. This is the main kitchen, as it is close to the dining room, but for serious cooks there is a second, much larger kitchen on the other side of the house, which we will come to later. There are two main salons, both with stunning views, parquet floors and fireplaces. These are lovely spaces to sit and relax; one of them could be a good games & TV room and the other one could be used for receiving guests, or just to read a good book curled up on a comfortable sofa. At the far end of the house, we come to the 53 m² bar/party room. This room has attractive wooden floors and doors leading to the terrace, and is the ideal spot for a big family reunion, a children’s party or a disco themed fête on a summer evening. There is already a large wooden bar with a sink and room for a half-sized fridge – and plenty of space to keep drinks and glasses. It even has his & hers WCs! A room behind the bar could be used as a billiard room or even a very large mudroom – as it opens on to a side terrace on the pool side of the house. Beyond this room is another guest WC, a door that leads to the cellars, and at the far end, an enormous (56 m²) second kitchen with fireplace and 4 sets of doors leading outside. First floor Having toured the ground floor in a wide circle, we come back to the main hallway where a well-proportioned wooden staircase leads to the first floor. The first floor is in symmetry with the ground floor. A wide landing runs the length of the house and there are windows overlooking the courtyard. All but one of the bedrooms faces the view, and all have large windows to catch the light. On the left, once you go up the stairs, is the largest of six bedrooms, all with private bath or shower rooms. This first bedroom has a large bathroom with a traditional free-standing bathtub and a separate shower. The sink, bidet and WC all have a pretty flower pattern on them, and there is a window. The bedroom measures over 55 m², and has two large windows and carpeted floors. It has a half-wall that could form a separate dressing room, but this would be a quick job to tear down and restore the original proportions. The floor here is carpeted. Opposite this room a locked door leads to an unfinished room that can then connect to the first floor of the outbuildings. All this could be finished to provide more living space, but so far, the present owner has not felt the need to expand. As we walk down the corridor, there are two further en suite bedrooms, both facing the garden and the stunning views. Both have big closets and parquet flooring. Further along the hallway, the fourth bedroom is smaller than the others, and the bathroom needs some work. It is also the only bedroom that does not face the front of the property. The floor here is carpeted. Bedroom five is spacious and has a good-sized shower room. The floors are parquet and there are two windows. Bedroom six is bigger (30 m²) and has a marble fireplace and parquet flooring. It also has two windows facing the wonderful views and a large bathroom with both a shower and a bathtub. A door in the back hall opens to reveal a staircase leading down to the extensive cellars built into the rock. Here we find the oil-fired furnace that heats the house. There is a long room with a vaulted ceiling that could make an impressive wine cellar, a large storage room and another long room with doors to the garden, followed by two smaller spaces. There is so much space here, and as there are several large doors opening to the garden, this part of the house could be used for a variety of things, including garden equipment storage, a wine cellar or tasting room, a winter greenhouse…there are many possibilities. The grounds here form the perfect setting for the house itself. There are stone terraces on all sides, and a natural spring feeds the large ornamental fishpond in front of the house. This spring is one of the unusual elements in the property. It is accessed by an open-air stone staircase that goes down into a cave where a basin has been carved out of the rock. Water bubbles out of a corner of the rock all year round, we are told, and feeds the ornamental pond in the grounds. This is a magical space and it is easy to imagine that generations of chateau dwellers have come down here to cool off in the summer heat or just to look at the bubbling water and be soothed by its music. There is also a large wooded area on one side of the property and a number of beautiful mature trees in the park area. Behind the main building, through the archway below the tower, there is a grassy area and a side terrace. Here is where the main driveway comes up to the house, and here is the gate to the separate garden which contains the swimming pool. There are lovely views here too, and the area is very peaceful. The large pool offers two separate areas; one to play water polo or just relax, and another part to swim laps. There is a Mediterranean-style pool house with an enclosed patio and a built-in BBQ, and inside the house is a small kitchen area, room for a fridge, a WC and a shower. So, you can spend the day by the pool and still have cold drinks, snacks and even lunch without going back to the house! The property is built in a U-shape, so that all one side comprises the chateau, and it is attached to the outbuildings via a large back kitchen with a room to renovate above, followed by a charming tower with an arched passageway leading to the back terraces, the main driveway, and the pool area. On the other side of the U is an estimated 200 m² building comprising a series of large rooms, several with vaulted stone ceilings, and a space above with windows. On the courtyard opposite the kitchen, there is also a separate 50 m² stone building that currently serves as a rather magnificent laundry room. Attached to it is an enclosed area of about 50 m² that has served in the past as an orangery. There is a small guardian’s cottage to renovate completely which is attached to the outbuildings and accessible both from the barns and from a door on the other side of the back entry gates. This property could make an amazing family home, which in fact it has been in recent years. It could also lend itself to any one of a number of projects, from a luxury B&B to an art or yoga retreat. It is big, but on a human scale, and the rooms don’t overwhelm; rather they invite you in. It is an ideal house for entertaining, and will appeal to a wide variety of clientele. We fell in love with the wonderful views and the elegance of the park with its beautifully proportioned ornamental pond reflecting the façade of the house. The sense of light and space in both the reception rooms and the large bedrooms is just magical, and we were itching to offer suggestions on how to decorate and furnish this property to bring out the best in it. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The information relating to the property, including but not limited to its surface area, condition, features and technical equipment (including, without limitation: heating systems, electrical installations, plumbing, drainage, swimming pool, security systems, and any other equipment), is provided for information purposes only, based on the elements and statements supplied by the seller.

A carriage ride from Paris, the Château de la Fontaine, an eternal fable. Just 35 kilometers from Paris, where the capital gradually yields to foliage and silence, the Château de la Fontaine in Auffargis emerges as a timeless interlude. Built for himself by the Parisian architect Jean-François Yvert between 1871 and 1875, the estate spans just over 1050 square meters. It stands at the heart of the Haute Vallée de Chevreuse Regional Natural Park, embraced by the Rambouillet Forest, and overlooks the Abbey of Vaux-de-Cernay, a Cistercian jewel nestled in the valley. Architecturally, it echoes the Louis XIII style and the traditional brick and stone châteaux of the Île-de-France. Here, the stone does more than recount history; it whispers it, like the wind stirring through the asphodel leaves. This château is poetry, and more than that, a fable worthy of La Fontaine, where every façade and every perspective invites contemplation and reverie. Its theatrical elegance, expressed through carved woodwork, intimate proportions, and a meticulous attention to detail characteristic of the grand residences of its century, makes this jewel a true family home. A caretakers house and an outbuilding complete the ensemble.

Réf.4802 : Chateau listed as a Historic Monument and its small chateau in Burgundy, in the heart of the Nièvre The château is situated in Burgundy, in the heart of the Nièvre region, between Nevers and Château-Chinon, on the outskirts of a small town of 900 inhabitants. Formerly the seat of a major medieval seigneury, the town developed on a rocky outcrop overlooking the Aron valley. The Nivernais Canal forms a loop within which the estate is situated. The Aron flows below. It is built on high ground and enjoys a magnificent view over the Nièvre countryside. The Morvan Regional Nature Park is nearby, a preserved natural area. The château is a 30-minute drive from Nevers and a 2 hour 40 minute drive from Paris. There is an aerodrome in Nevers, and a helicopter can land in the château grounds. The property comprises a 1,200 sqm château and a smaller 800 sqm château. THE CHATEAU : The château is built on a rectangular plan, over four storeys, with a slate gable roof. On the south-west façade, one can make out a former imposing chapel, now connected to the interior of the château, covered by a hipped roof, with two large pointed-arch windows. The main entrance is situated in the centre of a tall, projecting tower, spanning six storeys, topped by a hipped roof and housing a listed spiral staircase. The north-west façade, overlooking the terrace, is rendered in lime, featuring numerous mullioned windows in the larger sections and high-set dormer windows. The window frames are made of limestone. The south-east façade, offering a beautiful view of the Nièvre countryside, also features numerous windows, some of which are in a more classical 17th-C. style. A two-storey turret links the former chapel to the château. On the second and third floors there are twelve bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and wardrobe, ranging in size from 12 to 51 sqm. Beneath the roof of the former chapel lies a large 50 sqm study featuring a beautiful roof structure shaped like an upturned ship’s hull. Throughout the château, there are numerous preserved and restored architectural features, including floors, fireplaces, wood panelling, ceilings, and more. The interiors are very harmonious, of high quality, and perfectly respect this historic residence. THE SMALL CHATEAU : This is a 17th-C. building that originally housed outbuildings and large double-height stables. It has a rectangular layout over three storeys, plus an attic, and is covered with a slate Mansard roof. The main façade on the north-west side features a slight projection at its centre, with a pediment at the top, as well as at the ends, framed by stonework. The façades are lime-plastered. The interior surface area of the small château is approximately 800 sqm. THE 13TH-C. DEFENCE TOWER : This military defence tower has been converted into a self-contained flat. On the ground floor is a living room featuring antique terracotta tiles and a French-style ceiling. The tower contains various works by the designer and sculptor Pierre-Marie le Jeune, including a striking metal fireplace. A small kitchen has also been fitted out. Upstairs, there is a beautiful bedroom with a ‘sculpted bed’ and a glass ceiling revealing the magnificent roof structure, as well as a very contemporary bathroom with a glass bathtub. LAND : The park covers just over 12.3 acres. Around 1830, the landscape architect LAVENNE de CHOULOT designed an English-style park. It is through this park that one enters the estate. Heading south, we pass through a woodland with beautiful bridle paths that lead us to the edge of the Canal du Nivernais. From there, skirting the defence tower via a stone tunnel, we reach what was once the old kitchen garden, situated below the château’s terrace. Under the impetus of the current owners, this former kitchen garden has been transformed into a contemporary garden which has been awarded the ‘remarkable garden’ label. Water features have been created, resembling shattered fragments in which the sky and the château’s façade are reflected. Magnificent undulating rows of boxwood evoke the Nivernais bocage. This remarkable garden is bordered by a private canal running parallel to the Canal du Nivernais. Finally, a small French-style garden has been created on the upper terrace between the château and the 13th-C. tower. The views are magnificent, both from the lower garden towards the chateau terraces and from the upper gardens towards the Aron valley and the landscapes of the Nivernais countryside. This château is a truly historic family estate. Its size, location, surroundings, gardens and history make it a truly exceptional property. The high-quality restoration, which has been carried out with respect for the site’s history, means that a large family could move in immediately. The separation between the main château and the smaller château opens up a wide range of possibilities for activities without causing any disturbance. The development of an events business—such as conferences, corporate conventions, seminars, or private events like weddings, receptions, birthdays, etc.—is entirely feasible. It would also be possible to consider creating a hospitality (hotel) business. Finally, there is an opportunity to purchase additional land and buildings, subject to a price offer.
