ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF CHALON-SUR-SAÔNE, THE ELEGANCE OF A 19TH-CENTURY ESTATE Behind a circular main courtyard lined with century-old trees, the Château de la Villeneuve reveals an instantly recognizable silhouette. Two corner turrets, a slate roof?a rarity in the region?and the balance of a symmetrical layout define the identity of this 19th-century bourgeois residence. Connected to a spectacular contemporary orangery that opens onto the grounds, the estate today combines a residence of character, an established hospitality business, and a refined lifestyle?all just a few minutes from Chalon-sur-Saône and the vineyards of the Côte Chalonnaise. 19TH-CENTURY ARCHITECTURE COMPLEMENTED BY A CONTEMPORARY ORANGERY Built at the height of the Industrial Revolution, the Château de la Villeneuve belongs to that generation of bourgeois mansions whose architecture reflected both success and a way of life. Its symmetrical layout, two corner turrets, dormer windows, ridge ironwork, and slate roof create a silhouette that is instantly recognizable in the regional landscape. A rarity in Burgundy, this roof contributes to the estate's unique character and evokes the architectural style of the grand residences of 19th-century notables. Inside, the original features naturally extend this elegance. Wood paneling, moldings, fireplaces, spiral staircases, and antique hardwood floors complement the spacious, light-filled rooms. Every detail seems to have found its perfect place, striking a delicate balance between historic character and contemporary comfort. Extending from the château, the contemporary orangery offers a new perspective on the estate. Spanning nearly 125 m², this vast glass structure interacts with the park through wide openings that blur the boundary between interior and exterior. The 60 m² wooden terrace naturally extends this light-filled reception area, designed to host everything from large family gatherings to moments of relaxation or more intimate receptions. MARGUERITE BOUCICAUT'S LEGACY IN A PRESERVED PARK The history of the Château de la Villeneuve bears the discreet yet essential mark of Marguerite Boucicaut. A native of Chalon-sur-Saône and co-founder of Le Bon Marché in Paris alongside her husband Aristide Boucicaut, she remains one of the most influential figures in 19th-century French philanthropy. It was thanks to the inheritance she left behind that the Charrier-Guérin family was able to acquire the property, permanently embedding the estate in a unique family and heritage history. This legacy continues to shape the identity of the place today. It links the château to a human journey that extends beyond the borders of Burgundy and serves as a reminder of the major role Marguerite Boucicaut played in French social and economic history. Surrounding the mansion, the historic 5,500 m² park provides a setting worthy of this legacy. Organized around a large circular main courtyard, dotted with century-old trees and open vistas, it offers a preserved landscape where greenery graces every view. The seasons are fully expressed here, amid soft shadows, lush foliage, and unobstructed views of the château's facades. This abundance of greenery gives the estate a distinctive atmosphere while maintaining close proximity to the city. A HOSPITABLE DESTINATION IN THE HEART OF THE CÔTE CHALONNAISE The Château de la Villeneuve's location is a major factor in its appeal. Situated on the outskirts of Chalon-sur-Saône, the estate enjoys quick access to shops, services, the train station, and major transportation routes. The A6 highway connects Lyon and Paris, while the vineyards of Mercurey, Rully, and Givry anchor the property in the heart of one of the most sought-after regions of the Côte Chalonnaise. This prime location directly supports the hospitality tradition cultivated over the years. The estate attracts visitors eager to explore Burgundy's wine-growing landscapes, travelers seeking a more intimate getaway, and business professionals passing through the Chalonnais region. Already successfully operating as a bed-and-breakfast?distinguished by the Clef Verte label for its commitment to more responsible tourism?the property currently generates annual revenue of approximately euros100,000 (excluding tax). Its current structure makes significant expansion of this business a realistic prospect. Hosting wellness retreats, expanding the range of accommodations, or creating new experiences centered on the local area all offer opportunities to continue the property's legacy. THE AGENCY'S OPINION The Château de la Villeneuve combines all the elements that define great estates of character: a distinctly recognizable 19th-century bourgeois residence, a contemporary orangery opening onto the grounds, a history intimately linked to Marguerite Boucicaut, a 5,500 m² historic park centered around a remarkable main courtyard, and a hospitality business certified by the Clef Verte program that is already firmly established.

A RESTORED ESTATE WITH GUEST ROOMS IN SOUTHERN BURGUNDY Less than 3 minutes from Tournus, the Château de Pymont has been elegantly reborn following a complete restoration carried out between 2020 and 2022. Rebuilt in the 17th century on the foundations of a medieval residence and later expanded in the 19th century, this estate offers nearly 700 m² of living space in the heart of a park spanning more than four hectares, crisscrossed by two streams. Nine bedrooms and suites, numerous outbuildings, and an already well-established bed-and-breakfast operation now come together to create a place where heritage, nature, and hospitality blend seamlessly. A HERITAGE RENAISSANCE DRIVEN BY PASSION Above all, the Château de Pymont tells a story of rebirth. Behind its facades?rebuilt in the 17th century on the ruins of an ancient medieval residence and later extended with an elegant neo-Gothic wing in the 19th century?lies a recent history that is equally remarkable. When the current owners first stepped through its doors in 2019, the estate bore deep signs of the passage of time. Thus began a restoration project of rare scope. The restoration carried out between 2020 and 2022 has now resulted in an estate whose essential elements have been restored, offering a level of comfort rarely found in heritage properties of this scale. The antique hardwood floors, wood paneling, ornate ceilings, stone staircases, and spacious rooms blend naturally with efficient heating, meticulous insulation, and discreetly integrated modern amenities. The château has thus returned to its original purpose: that of a living home, open to the next generation, where its heritage continues to write its story without ever becoming stagnant. NATURE AND TRAVEL CREATE A UNIQUE ATMOSPHERE The park, spanning more than four hectares, extends this sense of harmony. The Natouze River feeds a central pond, around which paths, century-old trees, and clearings are arranged, inviting visitors to take a stroll. As the seasons change, light filters through the foliage, reflects off the water, and guides the eye toward the magnificently restored dovecote. Stone bridges and outbuildings dot this bucolic landscape. Here, nature plays a central role in the estate's identity. Inside, this character continues with the same consistency. The living rooms, libraries, and nine guest rooms and suites offer a unique atmosphere where antiques, works of art, and objects brought back from numerous travels tell a personal story. Asian furniture, antique doors, repurposed architectural elements, and curiosities from afar come together to create a cultured and warm environment. More than just decoration, it is a true collection of mementos that accompanies each space and gives the château a rare identity. This atmosphere has naturally charmed the travelers welcomed since 2022 as part of a bed-and-breakfast operation that is now well-established. It also offers a future owner the opportunity to immediately take over an established business while enjoying a fully restored estate, thereby avoiding the need for additional construction work. AN ESTATE WITH MANY POSSIBILITIES Today, the Château de Pymont combines the charm of a historic residence with the freedom of an estate offering a wealth of possibilities. The numerous outbuildings, vaulted cellar, workshops, convertible attics, and spacious annexes offer varied and harmonious potential for development without disrupting the site's balance. Whether as a family residence, a reception house, a hospitality estate, or a continuation of the existing tourism business, every project finds a ready-to-use setting here. Its location further enhances this uniqueness. Located in close proximity to highway access points and the Mâconnais TGV station, and just a few hours from Geneva, Paris, or London, the estate combines rare heritage with European accessibility. The landscapes of Southern Burgundy, the region's rich culinary traditions, the vineyards, charming villages, and cultural itineraries naturally enhance the experience of the place. More than just a property, Château de Pymont offers the opportunity to continue the thread of a history already deeply rooted in the land. It appeals to buyers seeking a living heritage?immediately habitable?that balances quality of life, accessibility, and the potential to host guests. THE AGENCY'S OPINION We are deeply moved by this residence, which tells a story that goes far beyond its architecture. Château de Pymont is one of those places whose value lies as much in its history as in the emotion it evokes. Its exemplary restoration, the atmosphere created by its owners, the quality of its grounds, and its already well-established bed-and-breakfast business come together to form a rare ensemble, designed for those seeking a living heritage?ready to be lived in, passed down, and shared.

Just twenty kilometres from Paris, at the heart of an estate spanning approximately sixty hectares, the Château de la Grange, better known as the Château du Maréchal de Saxe, stands among the most remarkable historic residences in the Île-de-France region. Originally commissioned in 1617 by Charles Duret de Chevry, Superintendent of Finances under King Louis XIII, and designed by the architect Jean Thiriot, a close associate of Cardinal Richelieu, the château was built on the foundations of a former fortified farm in the heart of the Forest of La Grange. Its elegant brick-and-stone architecture, a hallmark of the Louis XIII style, gives the property a timeless distinction.

The château entered history in 1748 when it was acquired by Maurice de Saxe, Marshal of France, victor of the Battle of Fontenoy and one of the greatest military strategists of the eighteenth century. He undertook extensive improvements to the estate, including the creation of the celebrated Galerie des Stucs (Stucco Gallery). Over the centuries, the estate passed into the hands of several distinguished families closely connected to the highest circles of power, notably the Gourgaud family, whose history is deeply intertwined with the Napoleonic era. Listed as a Historic Monument, the château has preserved its façades, roofs, ceremonial gallery, several historic reception rooms, its Cour d’Honneur, moats, magnificent entrance gates and a substantial part of its landscaped park. The current owners have successfully revived the estate by restoring its historic salons and establishing a refined gourmet restaurant, demonstrating the remarkable potential of a property where heritage, gastronomy, nature and the French art of entertaining coexist in perfect harmony. Today, this extraordinary estate awaits a new visionary owner. Its immediate proximity to Paris, the quality of its architectural heritage, the scale of its buildings and the beauty of its grounds make it a truly rare opportunity to create a prestigious hotel. Some estates preserve history. Others offer the opportunity to write it.

Between Toulouse and Carcassonne, in the heart of the preserved landscapes of Lauragais, this remarkable character property reveals the elegance of 19th-century architecture in an exceptional natural environment. Located on a wooded park of about 3 hectares with century-old trees, wells, and a spring, the estate includes a prestigious castle and three independent gîtes totaling 12 suites. Fully restored two years ago, the whole combines historical charm, modern comfort, and high-end development potential. Built in 1880, the estate develops nearly 800 m² of living space spread between the main house and its dependencies. From the moment you arrive, the castle imposes its elegant appearance with its tall towers, distinctive façade, and a large south-facing terrace offering an unobstructed view of the surrounding countryside. The three independent gîtes cover 317 m². They allow for considering high-end hospitality, event, or tourism activities in a particularly sought-after sector. The activity can be immediately resumed thanks to a fully operational structure sold turnkey if desired. The main castle itself has 477 m² of living space divided into 9 rooms, including 6 suites. The bright volumes, preserved decorative elements, and restored tapestries in the same style attest to the care given to the renovation and respect for the historic character of the place. Technical features meet current standards for a prestigious property: central heating with heat pump, underfloor heating on the ground floor, reversible air conditioning in bedrooms, double glazing on many openings, and a high-performance Wi-Fi network throughout the estate. The roof and masonry have been carefully maintained, providing an immediately exploitable property without work to be done. The top floor features large light-filled open spaces, particularly suitable for organizing seminars, wellness retreats, private events, or artistic projects. A remarkable vaulted stone cellar of about 60 m² completes this rare property. Much of the furniture, household linen, and bedding is included in the sale, allowing for immediate activity restart or quick installation in privileged conditions. The property benefits from a sought-after location near Lake Ganguise, the bastides of Revel and Mirepoix, the Canal du Midi listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the famous medieval city of Carcassonne. Toulouse and its international airport are accessible in just 35 minutes via the A61 and the Mediterranean sea is at 1h 20mn. An exceptional residence combining heritage elegance, contemporary features, and strong valuation potential in one of the most sought-after sectors in the South.

In the heart of the Lot-et-Garonne region, between Penne-d'Agenais and Monflanquin, two of South-West France's most beautiful heritage villages, this 19th-century château offers approximately 700 m² (7,535 sq ft) of living space set within 4.8 hectares (11.86 acres) of gardens, woodland and meadows. Passed down through the same family for nearly 140 years, this character-filled estate has undergone a complete renovation between 2023 and 2024. Today, it combines the charm of its rich history with the comfort and quality of a recent restoration. Arranged around a central residence flanked by two wings, the château offers sixteen principal rooms, including ten bedrooms and nine bathrooms, distributed between the main house and two charming indépendant guests cottages. Generous volumes, abundant natural light, impressive ceiling heights and far-reaching views create an atmosphere that is both peaceful and refined. Equally suited as a private family residence, a hospitality venture or an events venue, the property features an elegant dining room, a dedicated breakfast area and a reception hall designed for private gatherings. Its exceptional tranquillity and complete privacy provide the ideal setting for weddings, celebrations and special events. A 10 x 10 metre swimming pool, an outbuilding of approximately 150 m² (1,615 sq ft), a charming secondary building of 861sq ft, in need of restoration — believed to have once served as the estate's chapel — together with an attic, laundry room and wine cellar complete this rare offering. A landmark property in the area, the château was notably owned by the family of General de Barescut, who was awarded the French Légion d'Honneur for his heroic service during the Second World War. This family history, closely intertwined with the estate for almost a century and a half, continues to contribute to its unique character and enduring appeal. Just minutes from motorway access and a TGV high-speed rail station, this exceptional property offers an inspiring lifestyle where contemporary comfort, heritage, nature and tranquillity come together in rare harmony.

This extraordinary property, built for a wealthy cognac merchant towards the end of the 19th century, sits high on the northern bank of the river Charente, just a five-minute walk from the centre of glorious Jarnac, a town steeped in the culture and traditions of the cognac trade, and home to Courvoisier, Hine, Delamain and Luis Royer. Arranged over 3 stories, in excess of 700m2 , and with a vast basement area to develop, this grand chateau would lend itself perfectly (subject to the necessary permissions) to a business venture such as a boutique hotel, flagship company headquarters, premium corporate events venue or even high-end chambres d’hôte. Alternatively, of course, it could simply become a spectacular family home. On the ground floor there is a dining room, with grand wooden fireplace, wall-panelling, coffered ceiling and painted wall hangings, a study with another spectacularly carved and painted ceiling and a vast living room area opening on to the terrace and below, the gravel driveway which encircles the building. Of particular note is the “winter salon”, with its mosaic flooring, stucco balustrading, hand-painted wall fabrics and ornate cornicing, which, although requiring some renovation works, would perfectly suit an elegant entertaining space. A long hallway with painted wall coverings runs west to east, with a kitchen and stone, spiral, service staircase connecting basement to upper levels at one end, and a magnificent marble split-level, complete with yet more floor to ceiling hand painted artwork at the other. On the first floor there are four large bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and each with a southern outlook over the lawns leading down to the river. All the bedrooms open on to the grand balcony at the front of the chateau and a long, wood-panelled corridor connects them at the rear. The top floor has a further 6 bedrooms, one of which is to be completed, a bathroom and two shower rooms. Many original features remain throughout, including the stained-glass windows, wall coverings, paintings, fireplaces, wood carvings and handmade ironmongery. The park land of over 2 hectares which slopes down from the house to the riverbank is predominantly meadow and directly in front of and beneath the driveway there is a stone “grotto” with a series of pools and waterfalls which, when illuminated, would make for an enchanting centrepiece for evening entertaining. There is work to be done to bring this elegant estate back to its splendid former glory, but its historic status means that tax-deductions would be available for any restoration expenses, and once completed, what a glorious and prestigious property this would be.
