Normandy - Near Dieppe - An exceptional place linked to Impressionism In Normandy, in the Seine-Maritime department (76), near the chalk cliffs of the Pays de Caux, John Taylor is delighted to present for sale an exceptional property: the « Château de Wargemont », an estate considered the last of the great Impressionist sites still in private hands. The 25 acres property, described by the American Mary Cassatt as “a pretty place, an English park, rather isolated”, is strongly associated with the life and work of Pierre-Auguste Renoir, for whom it served as a vacation spot, studio, and meeting place with the most important collectors of his time. It has come down to us in its original 18th- and 19th-century condition. The manor house, listed and classified as a historic monument, houses the only Impressionist decor, by any master, remaining in its original location: the Two Hunts, painted by Renoir directly on the woodwork of the dining room (listed as a historic monument in 1993). A remarkable and human-scale ensemble, typical of the residences of the peers of France in the early 19th century, strongly influenced by exile in England during the post-Revolutionary period. The main 18th-century building, made of brick and flint, was completed with two wings in the early 19th century. One was intended to house the rare books from the library of Philippe-Antoine Merlin de Douai. Most of the rooms are associated with important paintings by Renoir, now exhibited worldwide. Upstairs are several suites and bedrooms. The attic is insulated and partly converted with staff rooms, linen room, and attics. A chapel, a walled vegetable garden with an orangery, a pond and greenhouses, as well as an orchard, form part of the romantic route offered by the 25 acres park with its original layout. It features a large number of rare and centuries-old species: purple beeches, sequoias, oriental plane trees, cedars, etc. Rose bushes known to Renoir during his stays still grow in the estate's vegetable garden and are currently being studied. Renoir spent long summers here, mainly in the 1880s and 1890s, which led to important commissions and some of the artist's most significant works. Scholars consider this period to be the happiest in his career. Mary Cassatt, Monet, Jacques-Émile Blanche, and Caillebotte, among others, were also visitors during the heyday of Impressionism. Patrons and collectors Charles Deudon, Victor Chocquet, and Charles Ephrussi were regulars.

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. Surrounding it are 30 hectares of landscaped gardens and preserved nature, a verdant setting where the seasons unfold like a ballerina crossing the stage in an ethereal movement. Pathways trace meditative walks, clearings create moments of openness, and the entire estate seems suspended between dream and reality. An exceptional renovation, carried out with uncompromising standards, has reinterpreted the château for contemporary living without ever altering its soul. Modern comfort blends in discreetly: a wine cellar, spacious garage, heated indoor swimming pool, gym, billiard room with English bar, orangery, elevator Each a contemporary note inscribed within a perfectly orchestrated heritage composition. Five bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms are currently fitted, with the possibility of creating four additional bedrooms in the outbuilding. This property is an emotion, a rare address where the art of living converses with history, and where luxury expresses itself through grandeur in simplicity. Modest in scale yet radiant in spirit, this château carries within it the nobility of great houses. It invites its future custodian to continue an ancient legend patiently etched in stone, and to engrave their own, framed by the enduring word : family.

This property enjoys a privileged location just minutes from the medieval village of Montcuq, a historic village with strong tourist appeal, and situated along the Way of St. James (Camino de Santiago). It is accessed via a charming gravel driveway. The views extend over verdant valleys, holm oak woods, and the surrounding sun-drenched hillsides, offering a sense of seclusion and tranquility while remaining close to local amenities. The castle still bears the strong marks of its history: arrow slits, sculpted stone fireplaces, and ancient doorways. The thick walls of local limestone and the plasterwork, weathered by time, testify to a noble structure, blending rustic charm with grandeur. The house is built on a vaulted base that houses cellars, a pantry, and service rooms. Inside, the reception rooms offer generous proportions: living rooms with terracotta tile floors (36 sq m), restored original fireplaces, and traditional ceilings (3.5 m high). The entrance hall opens onto a majestic stone staircase, leading to the upper floors where the kitchen, living room, grand salon, and bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and a view of the park, are located. Heritage materials--stone, terracotta tiles, and exposed beams--blend with contemporary touches for refined comfort. The estate includes traditional outbuildings: a stone barn, a guest house, and a bread oven. The grounds, structured yet informal, blend landscaped gardens, ancient trees, a stone terrace, low walls, and walking paths along the stream that runs alongside the property. A well-integrated swimming pool, a relaxing terrace, and meadows complete the picture. This property exudes history, yet is ready to embrace elegant contemporary living: whether as a primary or secondary residence, a hospitality project (bed and breakfast, events), anything is possible. The light of the Quercy region, the gentle seasons, and the perfect balance between space and privacy all combine to make this a truly authentic and inspiring haven.

Ref.4520 : Elegant Château with outbuildings for receptions in the Vendée department Situated in the heart of the Vendée, just 15 minutes from La Roche-sur-Yon and around fifty kilometres from the beaches of the Atlantic coast, the château we are offering is located in a commune that enjoys an ideal geographical location, combining rural tranquillity with accessibility. All the local shops are in the village. The forest of La Chaize, the banks of the River Yon and the many hiking trails make it easy to take full advantage of the natural beauty of the Vendée. The village and surrounding area are packed with historic sites that bear witness to the history of the Vendée. These include the 12th-century church of Saint-Jacques and a number of beautiful old houses offering authentic charm. A few kilometres away is Trizay Abbey, a remarkable site steeped in history. The four-storey château is of great elegance. The south-west façade is a superb example of a reinterpretation of the Louis XIII style that was in vogue in the Vendée region around 1850. Garlands of flowers, blind oculi and curvilinear pediments make for a highly successful 17th-century pastiche. Two male and two female masks on the two towers add to the finesse of the decoration. The facade facing the park is much more restrained, although its scrolled dormer keeps the style consistent. Inside, the château has been renovated using quality materials over a surface area of 600 sqm (around 200 sqm per floor). The former owner worked passionately for 7 years to restore this superb residence to its former glory. An interior designer has created a harmonious whole. The rooms are light and airy, with high ceilings. The herringbone parquet flooring is original. The woodwork, mouldings and rosettes give the property a noble character. On the ground floor, after climbing the steps to the porch, you enter the hall, which features an admirable semi-circular suspended staircase. The walls and ceiling are decorated with elaborate woodwork. To the right is a vast lounge. To the left is the dining room. Continuing down the hall, on the right is a very beautiful, spacious and luminous fitted kitchen, with an original vegetable garden. To the left is a large bedroom and bathroom. Another bedroom completes the ground floor. On the first floor, a vast landing leads to 4 large, light and airy bedrooms and 4 shower rooms and a small bedroom. On the second floor, the landing, lit by a glass roof, leads to two bedrooms and a large dormitory. Several other rooms can also be converted into bedrooms. A bathroom can also be fitted (arrivals). In the basement, covering the entire surface area of the château, the cellar is impressive in its size. A central corridor separates several technical rooms, including a magnificent wine cellar, ideal for tastings. Outbuildings : - An outbuilding was renovated into a reception room 2 years ago. The surface area is approximately 160 sqm. The work was carried out by an architect. The decor is tasteful and contemporary. Large windows look out over the park and the front of the château. You enter a bar area with a counter. On the right is the catering area and sanitary facilities. To the left is the large dining room, which can accommodate 100 people standing and 40 seated. - A small pavilion in the park The park covers more than 19 acres (8 hectares) and is divided into different areas. Opposite the château, around a bend in a path lined with carefully pruned cypress trees, you'll discover a formal garden with symmetrical flowerbeds and topiary, and an elegant fountain in the centre. Further on, beneath the majestic foliage of centuries-old trees - gnarled oaks, imposing cedars and purple beeches - stretches a vast pond, a tranquil mirror reflecting the sky in a thousand shades. Sheltered from view, a statue of the Blessed Virgin keeps watch, frozen in her benevolent posture, offering walkers a moment of contemplation in the heart of this tamed nature. The park undergoes a metamorphosis through the seasons: a golden glow in autumn, a powdery coat in winter, a floral symphony in spring and an ocean of greenery in summer.
