In the village of Les Thons, this former convent, founded in 1452, stands proudly in the heart of the rolling Vosges countryside. The property offered for sale occupies the central portion of this distinctive complex. Behind its façade, designated a Historic Monument, the spaces unfold amidst ancient stonework, vast vaults, soaring ceilings, carved staircases, and a well-preserved cloister. Imbued with a rustic Renaissance atmosphere, the site now serves as a distinctive residence designed to welcome guests, preserve its heritage, and envision new uses. THE CENTRAL BUILDING OF A FRANCISCAN COMPLEX Set apart from major thoroughfares, the Couvent des Cordeliers in Les Thons stands out in the landscape as a monument to history. Founded in the 15th century at the request of Guillaume de Saint-Loup and Jeanne de Choiseul and designated a Historic Monument in 1945, it is now the best-preserved Franciscan complex in northeastern France. The eye is first drawn to the stone facades, the regularity of the ancient openings, and the simple lines of the cloister and its sacred fountain. Then come the details: a door weathered by time, the omnipresence of the vaults, a monumental fireplace, the depth of the walls, the antique woodwork and beams, and the ?cathedral' staircase. Each space seems to have retained the rhythm of the centuries. From the tree-lined garden and the orchard, views open up onto the village's historic center and the surrounding countryside. Further on, the paths lead to the Vosges forests, the spa towns of Vittel and Contrexéville, and the Renaissance gardens of Châtillon-sur-Saône. SPACES FILLED WITH LIGHT AND NATURAL MATERIALS The interior spans nearly 400 m² in a warm and deeply authentic design. The main living area, spanning nearly 80 m², harmonizes with the high ceilings, exposed beams, and open-plan layout featuring a mezzanine. Historic hardwood floors, terracotta tiles, moldings, restored doors, and various architectural details come together to create a vibrant space bathed in light. Some rooms still feature decorative paintings and art collections that extend the spirit of the place. The fully equipped professional kitchen is designed to accommodate both a generous daily lifestyle and larger gatherings. The vaulted cellars, the interior patio, and the adjoining spaces reinforce this sense of a lived-in and adaptable whole. Sold furnished and equipped, the property also includes several antique works of art and paintings that contribute to its unique character. A PROPERTY TO IMAGINE: A BLEND OF HERITAGE AND INSPIRING PROJECTS The central section of the convent spans over 3,300 m² of land, featuring an orchard, a natural spring, a pond, and open views. At the rear, a vast 2,360 m² plot offers various possibilities for future development while respecting the site's character. The site has already served as a residence and hosted events, receptions, and dining experiences. Its layout allows for new uses centered on hospitality, vacations, heritage preservation, or a unique second home. Located between Vittel, Épinal, and Langres, this property embodies a rare quality: that of a historic site still very much alive, capable of accommodating ambitious projects without ever losing its original spirit. THE AGENT'S PERSPECTIVE ?What you feel here goes beyond architecture alone. The Couvent des Cordeliers des Thons possesses that quiet depth unique to carefully preserved historic sites. A property shaped by time, designed for those seeking not only a home but also a story to carry forward.' Julie Rowlett-Ballon

A MANOR HOUSE IN HAUTE-MARNE Far from the hustle and bustle of daily life, certain estates seem to have always belonged there. La Perle d'Anrosey is part of this subtle interplay between architecture and landscape. Behind its 18th-century facades, stone stands alongside towering trees, springs feed the pond, and the outbuildings extend the main house. More than just a property, this charming estate is a place of hospitality where space, time, and nature come together in a balance that has become truly precious. Even today, this story continues through a bed-and-breakfast that welcomes travelers in a setting that has remained true to its identity. A MANOR HOUSE DESIGNED FOR HOSPITALITY The stone facades emerge from behind the foliage, bathed in light that reveals every contour, every material, and every detail of this well-preserved architecture. Here, the landscape does not merely serve as a backdrop to the house; it is an extension of it. Built in the 18th century, this mansion offers nearly 390 m² of living space. The living areas are distributed between the ground floor and the first floor, while a spacious basement and attic harmoniously complete the ensemble. The antique hardwood floors complement the stone flooring, the wood paneling accentuates the high ceilings, and the fireplaces serve as a reminder that this home was always designed for entertaining. The reception areas foster a warm atmosphere where meals linger and gatherings flow naturally. Set slightly apart, the seven bedrooms offer comfort ideal for extended stays, with several featuring their own private bathrooms. Today, these spaces bring to life a well-regarded bed-and-breakfast operation, welcoming guests who appreciate the charm of historic architecture and the expansive landscapes of southern Haute-Marne. This spirit of hospitality seems to flow naturally here, driven as much by the spaciousness of the rooms as by the soul of the place. The generously sized kitchen complements this tradition of sharing, where every stay revolves around large, convivial meals and simple, unhurried moments. The property has retained its authenticity while incorporating the necessary updates for contemporary living, making it suitable for continuing the current business or for envisioning a new life project. A CHARACTERFUL ESTATE IN HAUTE-MARNE Surrounding the house, more than two hectares form a vibrant landscape. Centuries-old trees frame the horizon, the orchard lines the park's paths, and the lawns invite the Haut-Marne countryside right into the estate. The pond, fed by the property's natural springs, adds a subtle touch of movement to this setting, where water has long held a special place. Two wells still in use also bear witness to this special relationship between the house and its surroundings. The outbuildings naturally expand the possibilities of the site. The vast barn, measuring approximately 300 m², part of which already serves as a reception hall, supports the estate's hospitality activities today while hinting at other potential uses. The dovecote, converted into a summer bedroom, the workshop, the wine cellar, and the attic further enrich this particularly cohesive architectural heritage. Each building interacts with the others, like chapters of a single story where heritage, nature, and hospitality intertwine effortlessly. A TRADITION OF HOSPITALITY TO CARRY ON La Perle d'Anrosey possesses that unique quality that allows everyone to freely envision their own future here. Future owners may choose to continue the well-established bed-and-breakfast business and carry on this tradition of hospitality, which is now an integral part of the estate's identity. They could just as easily envision it as a spacious family home, a retreat, or a residence dedicated to reunions and large gatherings around the table. Located near the Forêts National Park, hiking trails, charming villages, and the unspoiled landscapes of southern Haute-Marne, the property is set in a region where natural heritage intertwines with history. Its proximity to Langres, as well as easy access to Paris and Switzerland, further enhance the appeal of this exclusive location. Here, heritage isn't just something to be admired?it's something to be lived. As the seasons come and go, travelers find a respite here, families build memories, and the estate has continued its story with the same natural ease for several centuries. THE AGENCY'S OPINION Some estates captivate with their grandeur; others with their surroundings. La Perle d'Anrosey combines these two aspects with rare precision. Its well-preserved architecture, the expansive grounds, the richness of its outbuildings, and its bed-and-breakfast operation?developed in keeping with the spirit of the place?come together to form a property where heritage, nature, and hospitality blend in remarkable harmony.
