Elegant 19th-century château near Albi Built around 1800 by the Durieu de Madron family, this elegant 19th-century château is set in the heart of the Tarn countryside, within a gently rolling, verdant and deeply peaceful environment, just moments from Albi. Located only a few minutes from the episcopal city of Albi, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and widely regarded as one of the most beautiful cities in the world, the property enjoys a privileged setting combining cultural richness, art de vivre and accessibility. With its remarkable architectural heritage, mild climate and open landscapes, Albi perfectly embodies the elegance of southwestern France. Offering approximately 650 sqm of living space, the château is distinguished by the generosity of its volumes and the quality of its layout. From the moment you enter, a grand entrance hall with impressive proportions opens onto light-filled reception rooms, including a beautifully scaled living room and dining room, as well as a fully equipped contemporary kitchen. The overall atmosphere is both refined and welcoming. The property features six spacious suites, each offering comfort and privacy, with lovely open views over the surrounding countryside. Upstairs, the living spaces continue with a large salon, a billiard room and a library, creating additional areas dedicated to relaxation and conviviality. The second floor, with its former staff quarters, also offers the potential to further increase accommodation capacity for a hospitality project. Outside, the estate extends over approximately 4.5 hectares, forming a remarkable natural setting. The landscaped park, carefully designed, includes an elegant swimming pool and offers multiple perspectives over the surrounding hills. From the terraces and balconies, the eye is drawn across the green, undulating Tarn countryside, revealing serene panoramic views from sunrise to sunset. The outbuildings complete the estate harmoniously, including a stud farm inspired by the great Normandy stables, an orangery, a garage, and a large upper-level reception space suitable for hosting events in a characterful setting. An independent ground-floor apartment can also serve as a caretaker’s residence or concierge accommodation. Rich in history, the property notably welcomed Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec at the end of the 19th century, who captured the stud farm and orangery, adding an artistic dimension to its heritage. This château offers a rare balance between architectural elegance, generous volumes, preserved nature and proximity to an exceptional city. It is equally suited as a prestigious family residence or for a refined hospitality or event project, in an authentic and inspiring setting.

In the heart of the Gard region, this château, whose origins date back to the 11th century, overlooks the Gardon gorges between Uzès and the Pont du Gard. The village enchants with its golden stone façades, its immediate proximity to the river, and an atmosphere where nature seems to advance in a silent procession. Paths leading to the Hermitage of Collias, water-based activities, protected panoramic landscapes, and the proximity of major cultural centres give the site a strong identity: discreet, yet perfectly connected. Less than 30 minutes from Nîmes and 40 minutes from Avignon, the château enjoys a strategic position at the heart of a major heritage territory. Built around an 11th-century tower and shaped over the centuries, the residence bears witness to the great eras it has passed through. In the 15th century, it belonged to the Montpezat family, before being restructured in the 18th century by the Marquis de La Chapelle, who gave it the enduring form we see today. The estate is now composed of three historic entities: – a 17th-century wing, – an 18th-century wing, – and the medieval tower, carefully reinterpreted through successive restorations. A masterful renovation has restored the château to its former splendour, blending living heritage with contemporary standards of excellence. With nearly 2,000 sqm of living space, the property offers majestic volumes, perfectly suited to either a grand private residence or a prestigious hotel project. The estate extends over almost 2 hectares, featuring a succession of terraces, themed gardens, woodland areas, landscaped perspectives and open views. The château offers a total of 19 bedrooms, arranged into three complementary ensembles: • 8 rooms integrated into the 5-Star hotel, all restored to the highest standards: generous volumes, noble materials, views over the park or surrounding hills, and a refined atmosphere. • 3 independent guest rooms, perfectly integrated into the estate and offering welcome privacy. With appropriate compliance upgrades, they could be incorporated into the hotel operation to increase accommodation capacity. - 3 apartments, each with its own distinct character, complete the ensemble. These units offer multiple possibilities: high-end suites, staff accommodation, private spaces, or premium lodging dedicated to an ambitious hospitality project. - A fourth apartment to be fitted out could also be converted into staff accommodation. A dedicated area of the estate could also accommodate a SPA, offering significant development potential to enhance the wellness offering already initiated by the existing facilities. Common areas and gastronomy: Bright lounges, vaulted rooms, reception spaces and well-balanced circulation areas form a fluid and elegant whole. Stone, wood and handcrafted ironwork harmoniously interact with a sober and carefully curated contemporary décor. “L’Hirondelle”, the château’s gastronomic restaurant, is a true signature of the property. Here, a Chef can celebrates local produce with confident creativity. Its panoramic terrace overlooks the hillside and gardens, forming a living tableau that accompanies every service. Outdoor spaces: The private park, thoughtfully designed, unfolds English-style gardens, a rose garden, tree-lined paths, a traditional kitchen garden and naturally shaded areas. A discreetly integrated swimming pool and ornamental basins complete this landscaped oasis of rare character. Our view: This estate brings together everything one expects from an exceptional property: an illustrious history, a multi-layered architecture perfectly restored, an operational 5-star hotel, a renowned gastronomic restaurant, and a flexible accommodation capacity thanks to guest rooms and apartments. The possibility of creating a SPA adds an additional dimension, opening the way to a high-end wellness concept. The harmony between architecture, nature and perspective gives the property an almost sculptural coherence. Château de Collias is not merely a setting, but a stage ready to host an ambitious project, a private residence or a characterful hotel. A rare address, crafted for those seeking the alliance of heritage and contemporary excellence.

The estate, in a single block, extends over 19.3 hectares, providing a preserved environment and great tranquility.

A listed Moorish Revival villa opposite Ile de la Comtesse on the Goëlo coast in Brittany, with panoramic sea views. With the rising popularity of sea bathing at the end of the 19th century, a new type of seaside architecture emerged along the French coast, designed for relaxation and turned towards the outdoors. Residences in a variety of bold styles flourished on the shores of the Goëlo region. Built on a hilltop, the 'Turkish Villa' was erected by the Count de la Lande de Calan around 1880. Extended in 1906, it offers uninterrupted views of the sea and the port. The house is part of a co-owned plot with an adjoining 4-star hotel. Access to the property is unrestricted. One parking space is reserved for the villa's residents, and five others can be made available on an occasional basis. The entrance is on the western facade. Extensive vegetation, combined with a coursed granite masonry supporting wall with a balustrade, ensures privacy. A large bed of rosebushes precedes the wall and balusters, with a profusion of agapanthus as a backdrop. Two well-trimmed conifer hedges mark the entrance. Between these, a small staircase leads to an esplanade and to a granite approach stair serving the solid wood entrance door, carved in the shape of a horseshoe arch.

Raised over two stories, one of which is convertible under the eaves, and oriented north-south, the residence features sober facades in dressed stone coated with lime, straight bays framed in white and fitted with painted wooden shutters in green, and finally, roofs with two or four panes of canal tiles bordered by three rows of tile overhangs. It is flanked by concrete terraces on the south and west. The eastern wing, connected to the castle by its northeast corner, houses a caretaker's accommodation and a loft with an orangery on two levels. Forming an L-shaped building extended by a paved terrace to the south, it displays, like the main body, the architectural characteristics typical of Provençal houses: plastered stone facades and country tiles with one or two slopes. The wing, once a stable for horses, was indeed built at the same time as the castle and later transformed into an orangery. The built complex is surrounded by a 1-hectare park, which includes trimmed hedges, a Japanese pond, a pool with views over the Payre valley, and an old tennis court. Traversed by hiking trails, a forest of oaks borders it, providing an ideal setting for nature lovers. For over 20 years, after about ten years of work, the castle has become a guesthouse with seven rooms, five of which are equipped for hosting, with private amenities. Its interior spaces blend antique furniture, delicate bedspreads, and lime-painted walls, which enhance the charm of the living areas. All roofs and the insulation of the upper floor were redone a few years ago. All windows are double-glazed.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A 13th-century chateau, its outbuildings and feudal vestiges between Brive-la-Gaillarde and the foothills of the White Périgord region. From the hamlet’s small square, a 150-metre no-through road, framed on either side by large outbuildings that partially mask the property, provides access to the chateau’s court of honour via a wrought-iron gate flanked by stone pillars. The property’s enclosure walls, the round tower with its Renaissance dormer window and the crystallised ruins of an ancient lookout tower, are the remaining vestiges of the early chateau dating from 1226, which was expanded in the 15th century with the construction of the three-storey main building and its square tower, and then restored in 1650, this last phase being accompanied by the construction of the mansard roof outbuildings as well. Facing east to west, the barlong-shaped main building has a hipped roof flanked on opposite corners by two towers, one round and topped with a pepperpot roof and the other square with a pavilion roof. The three-storey façades of this classical-style dwelling, in lime-pointed rubble stone, are cadenced by many tall casement cross-windows with ashlar stone surrounds. The façade also has two sets of double glass doors with semi-circular spoked fanlights as well as two bull’s-eye windows, and is topped with a rounded dormer window on one side, which dynamically highlights a central row of windows. Two monumental chimneys rise up from this side of the roof as well, while the towers’ façades are punctuated by small windows, oculi and glass doors. All the windows and doors are safeguarded by single or double-leaf wooden shutters, with the exception of the mullion dormer window topped with a triangular pediment and a pinnacle that crowns the vertical row of windows on the chateau’s northern gable end. With two hectares of land, the property’s buildings were all constructed out of blond limestone and topped with Allassac slate roofs. Adjacent to the round tower and extending on from the main dwelling, a two-storey outbuilding, used mainly as housing, faces a triangular domestic outbuilding, which encloses the grand courtyard on one side. The latter is extended to the south by a large rectangular, landscaped patio, which provides the chateau’s western façade with a panoramic view, while from the chateau’s eastern façade, the grounds bordered by a gravel area reveal swathes of woodlands that extend towards the south. Lastly, an immense right-angle outbuilding used for agricultural purposes is located on the other side of the drive.

At the end of a long driveway stands this beautoful château steeped in history, nestled in the heart of the Gascon countryside, in a preserved and natural setting. Set on nearly 19.5 hectares of land, this remarkable estate captivates with its timeless elegance, peaceful surroundings, and rare architectural heritage. A chapel dating back to 1607, whose keystone still bears its original inscription, reminds us of the ancient parish that once existed on this site. The property remained in the hands of prominent families for centuries, including that of Antoine de Coux, Bishop of Condom, and the d'Anglade d'Autièges family, until it was sold in 1788. The château was then preserved by their descendants for over a century before being passed on to other local families. Today, the château offers a renovated ground floor of approximately 280 m², featuring a spacious entrance hall, a grand and light-filled dining/reception room with monumental fireplace, a warm and inviting living room with fireplace, a functional kitchen, a library with fireplace, three bedrooms, a bathroom, and a shower room. All ground-floor rooms benefit from beautiful high ceilings. Many original elements have been preserved, including mullioned windows, period parquet flooring, original staircases, stone fireplaces, and noble materials throughout. The property is both elegant and comfortable, with central heating. The first floor, approximately 295 m², is accessed by a beautiful stone staircase and offers a large landing. A wide L-shaped corridor leads to five generous rooms to be renovated, perfect for creating additional bedrooms and bathrooms. The attic is convertible and features an impressive traditional timber framework. The château is built over full cellars, some of them vaulted, and accessible via a wide stone staircase. Outside, the landscaped park with a working well creates an exceptional natural setting, highlighted by a magnificent three-century-old cedar tree. A former rabbit warren adds a romantic touch to the scenery. On the east side, a charming courtyard with a central well and fan-shaped stone staircase adds unique character to this beautiful property, which also enjoys open views over the surrounding countryside. Two garages, a former orangery awaiting renovation, and the chapel complete this elegant ensemble. A 10 x 5 m saltwater swimming pool, bordered with travertine stone, invites you to relax in complete tranquillity. A rare opportunity to own and preserve a true piece of history, where authenticity, charm, and grandeur come together in a peaceful and privileged setting. Listed in the Inventaire Supplémentaire des Monuments Historiques, the property is exempt from DPE in accordance with article R123-15 of the French Construction and Housing Code. Fees to be paid by the seller. Not subject to DPE. Information on the risks to which this property is exposed is available on the Geohazards website: georisques.gouv.fr.
