An 18th-century chateau listed as a historical monument where the writer Diderot stayed and that the fashion designer Lagerfeld owned, nestled in 13 hectares of grounds with outhouses.

The grounds extend behind the chateau, well beyond the moat.

The chateau was built between 1720 and 1740 by Jean-Robert Volland, France’s chief salt tax officer. In 1755, his daughter Sophie was 39 years old when she met the writer and philosopher Denis Diderot, who was aged 42 at the time. Diderot stayed at the chateau on two occasions: in 1759 and 1770.

A neo-Palladian chateau with outhouses, set in nine hectares of lawns and woods near Paris Charles de Gaulle airport and 35 kilometres from the French capital. Railings painted bottle green form a concave shape that is centred upon a wrought-iron gate leading into the property, where a remarkable neoclassical chateau built in 1846 stands proudly. A vast lush lawn extends immediately beyond the gate. The chateau lies further on. Straight to the right of the wrought-iron gate there is a pedestrian gate in the same style as the main gate and a caretaker’s lodge made of brick and rubble stone. The chateau’s design is neo-Palladian. The magnificent edifice has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor. The building is rectangular and made of dressed stone. All its elevations are coated with white rendering that has a slightly pink tint. A raised terrace and a series of evenly spaced columns form a portico at the top of four front steps. This portico leads to the chateau’s main entrance door. Four majestic Doric columns feature in this tetrastyle portico. A terrace lies above their capitals. This terrace is edged with an architrave and a finely crafted balustrade. Along the facade, 11 bays per floor offer sweeping views of the beautiful grounds in front of the chateau. The window ledges and their corbels are made of dressed stone. The windows are fitted with shutters, the pale blue tone of which brings out the edifice’s hues. A neoclassical pediment with three windows rises up in the middle of the facade, on the chateau’s top floor. A long row of Greek dentils underline the entablature, adding a light touch of elegance to the grand edifice. Dormers and skylights neatly punctuate the roof. The rear elevation has an architectural design that is similar to the facade. But here a distyle portico marks the entrance where a tetrastyle portico adorns the front. The chateau’s hipped slate roof is in perfect condition. Red-brick chimney stacks rise up from it. Beyond the chateau there is an annexe that looks like a grand country house. Work was carried out on the property in the late 19th century. During this phase, a farmhouse, an outbuilding and a dovecote were added in the property’s north-east corner. An outer wall encloses most of the grounds, where vast lush lawns extend, edged by broad-leaved trees. Archaeological remains may be buried beneath these grounds. The property is remarkably peaceful and soothing. Tranquillity reigns here.

A 19th century manor house in need of restoration, its outbuildings and 7 ha of wooded parklands in the rolling countryside of the Landes d'Armagnac in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. The old 15th century noble residence has been converted into the present-day manor house, which has preserved its treasures. These include the late 19th century sculpted coat of arms of Baron Camont de Talence, the former owner of the property, adorning the mantelpiece of a marble fireplace within the manor house. The 7-hectare estate, which used to be a vineyard, enjoys surroundings protected from visual and noise disturbances. It is a 1-km walk from the village. The entrance to the estate from the main road is marked by a tall wrought iron gate framed by solid dressed stone pillars. The caretaker's lodge is on the left-hand side. A 600-metre bridle path runs through the grounds dotted with centuries-old oak trees to a lawned platform above the fields. The manor house stands in the centre of this natural setting. The driveway splits twice: once to go around the western edge of the estate and serve the fields and farm outbuildings built around a square courtyard, and again to reach the tenant farm and its outbuildings. Opposite the west facade of the manor house, an elongated building houses the stables. To the north, there is an old swimming pool with an unusual shape awaiting restoration. The bandstand, with its fine, ornate metal structure, adds a refined touch to the park. It forms the starting point for a shady path leading to spinneys crossed by a stream and then a river ensuring the irrigation of the land. The manor house extends over three storeys with a total floor area of some 650m², each level bathed in light. The functional layout facilitates easy renovation. During the renovation works, the tenant farmhouse, which has already been restored and offers a comfortable surface area, will provide the ideal refuge for future inhabitants, should the need arise.
