13th-Century Medieval Fortress – Listed Historic Monument (MH / ISMH) Overlooking the fertile plains of Limagne and the foothills of the Livradois, east of Clermont-Ferrand and close to Billom, the Château de Mauzun rises from a basalt volcanic outcrop, a timeless sentinel of Auvergne’s history. Originally a fortified motte that became one of the principal strongholds of the Counts of Auvergne as early as the 10th century, Mauzun fully entered the history of France in the early 13th century. In 1210, King Philip II of France annexed Auvergne to the Kingdom of France and placed Mauzun under the authority of the Bishops of Clermont, contributing to its strategic development and prominence. Built according to the principles of the greatest medieval fortresses, Mauzun is remarkable for its exceptional scale: nearly 900 metres of ramparts protecting a vast lower bailey of approximately 3 hectares; an intermediate enceinte punctuated by 16 towers enclosing the outer courtyard; and a monumental keep measuring 50 metres on each side, flanked by four corner towers linked by massive curtain walls, with several levels of wall walks. In the 16th century, the fortress was enhanced with elements of comfort, notably a northern curtain wall opened with large sculpted windows, offering spectacular panoramic views. For almost four centuries, Mauzun stood as one of the symbols of power in Auvergne and remained a coveted site during every period of unrest. Gradually abandoned and partially dismantled, the château regained its unified ownership in the 19th century. In the 20th century, an initial restoration programme was undertaken, particularly the Captaincy Tower, converted into residential accommodation. Further works were resumed in the 21st century and remain to be completed. Today, Mauzun stands as an open-air lesson in medieval military architecture, a site of rare evocative power. Underground passages, defensive systems, a mysterious cistern, and its bold setting atop an ancient volcano continue to inspire research, reflection, and discovery. More than a real estate project, the Château de Mauzun is a heritage to be preserved — a place to be understood and respected. It is intended for a purchaser driven by a passion for history and architecture, willing to commit to a long-term vision in the service of preservation and transmission.

Presented by the Private Desk of Côte d’Azur Sotheby’s International Realty, the Domaine des Aspres is one of the largest and most prestigious private estates on the French Riviera. Nestled in the commune of Biot, just a few kilometers from the iconic Cap d’Antibes, this extraordinary property spans an impressive 182 hectares of preserved natural landscape, offering absolute privacy and rare proximity to the region’s major points of interest. Perfectly located, this unique estate lies just 3 kilometers from the Mediterranean Sea and less than 10 kilometers from Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport—an exceptional level of accessibility for a property of this scale. Antibes, Cannes, Monaco, Sophia Antipolis, and Valbonne are all nearby, placing the Domaine in an ideal balance between seclusion, nature, and the vibrant Riviera lifestyle. At the heart of the estate stands a magnificent Belle Époque château, built in the 1920s by Léon Bailby, a prominent figure of the French press. Designed by architect Messiah—also known for the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and the Palais Masséna in Nice—the château is a refined testament to the Riviera’s architectural elegance of the era. Offering approximately 1,700 sq.m. of living space, it is set within 40 hectares of wooded parkland in the southern part of the estate, the area closest to the sea. The château features fine stonework, a stately courtyard, multiple rooftops, and impressive towers—combining noble presence with timeless harmony. Extensively renovated in 2010, the château offers modern comforts and high-end finishes, including air conditioning, high-speed Wi-Fi, marble bathrooms, and carefully restored original paintings. The service quarters remain to be refurbished, offering customization potential for the future owner’s vision. The estate’s outdoor spaces are equally captivating. The château is surrounded by beautifully designed gardens with diverse influences: a grand 2,000 sq.m. French formal garden to the south, a Spanish-style garden to the east, and stunning Italian gardens to the southwest. The grounds feature a poetic sequence of natural terraces, stairways, and ornamental pools, enhancing the serene atmosphere of the property. The gardens are serviced by an automated irrigation system and discreet underground lighting. Access to the château is via a private, secure, and secluded driveway. One of the estate’s most iconic features is its Olympic-size swimming pool—an art-deco masterpiece. Measuring 25 meters in length, it was the very first pool of its kind on the French Riviera and was inaugurated in the 1930s by Marlene Dietrich. It later served as a training facility for French athletes ahead of the 1936 Olympic Games. Today, it is accompanied by an elegant 80 sq.m. pool house and a triple diving platform. The Domaine also includes several secondary residences, some located in buildable zones. These include Les Oliviers, La Cigalière, and La Maguelone—classified in zone N—as well as Les Cygnes and Le Paradou, located in UEC zones, offering opportunities for renovation or development, depending on the buyer’s plans. The Domaine des Aspres is a true sanctuary—where heritage, nature, and understated luxury exist in perfect harmony. This rare property offers its future owners an exceptional quality of life, in one of the most coveted settings on the French Riviera.
