A CHARACTER HOME WITH OUTBUILDINGS JUST OUTSIDE BESANÇON In Voray-sur-l'Ognon, this character home offers country living within easy reach of Besançon. Behind its stone walls, the house provides 155 m² of living space, along with a large barn, additional outbuildings and a courtyard?plenty of room to create a family home that suits the way you want to live. Original hardwood floors, period doors, fireplaces and timber framing give the property its warmth and character, while the tree-filled garden adds a welcome touch of greenery. Besançon Franche-Comté TGV station is about ten minutes away. A HOME WITH ROOM FOR MORE The property is centered around a spacious courtyard, with old stone buildings, a tree-filled garden and generous spaces that offer plenty of possibilities for the future. This traditional Franche-Comté home brings together the character of the past and a way of living in the country that feels just as relevant today. Inside, nearly 155 m² of living space are arranged over three levels. Hardwood floors, period doors, fireplaces and time-worn materials create the warm, inviting feel of a family home. The surrounding outbuildings add another dimension to the property, providing the kind of space that can take on different uses as life and needs change. Outside, the garden completes the setting. The 1,727 m² property is dotted with trees, while the courtyard connects the various buildings and becomes a natural place to gather during the warmer months. A HOME MADE TO LAST The interior lends itself naturally to family life, with enough space to spend time together without giving up privacy. There are three bedrooms, including a primary suite, and two bathrooms. With the rooms spread across three levels, different areas of the house can serve different purposes, with more private spaces upstairs. The home's original character is found in the details: hardwood floors, preserved period doors and fireplaces that give individual rooms their identity. Renovations carried out over the years have kept the house up to date while respecting its history. It is a home to enjoy today, with room to continue making it your own over time. BETWEEN THE OGNON AND BESANÇON Voray-sur-l'Ognon has retained the easy pace of village life, with nature close at hand. The banks of the Ognon, local paths and wooded landscapes make the outdoors part of everyday life. Essential shops and services are available locally, with more options in nearby Devecey. Besançon is approximately 12 kilometers away. Besançon Franche-Comté TGV station is about ten minutes away, as is access to the A36 via Besançon Nord. It is a location that makes it easy to combine country life with everything beyond it: mornings in the garden, days in Besançon or a train to Paris, then evenings back among the trees, stone buildings and quiet surroundings of the Ognon Valley. Country living, without feeling cut off. THE AGENT'S PERSPECTIVE What struck me most when I visited was just how many possibilities this property offers. The house itself is already welcoming and ready to live in, but once you see the courtyard, the garden and the size of the outbuildings, you realize you are getting much more than 155 m² of living space. I especially love the original timber framing, the stone walls and the large arched doorway. They give the property its distinctive Franche-Comté character. For me, this is a home you choose not only for what it is today, but also for what it could become in the years ahead.'

RENOVATED 18TH-CENTURY MILL, IN RIOZ On the outskirts of the small town of Rioz, set back from the centre in a preserved setting, this 18th-century mill is nestled within a landscape shaped by water and light. The living area rises above the inlet channel and the axis of the old wheel, now encased in glass, whilst the colourful spaces flow seamlessly across three levels. Outside, the grounds, traversed by the river, naturally extend this sensitive relationship with the local landscape. AN INTERIOR INSPIRED BY THE MILL'S HISTORY In Rioz, this mill, restored between 2013 and 2023, finds its balance in an environment shaped by the movement of water. The river runs alongside the property, crosses it and immediately reveals its structure, like a defining line around which the whole complex is organised. The ground floor accommodates the essential functions with precision, including the garage, laundry room, boiler room and technical areas, as well as the mill machinery directly connected to the supply canal, which has now been brought up to standard. The water rights, legally established, anchor the site in a rare continuity, hinting at the possibility of setting the wheel in motion once more. Upon entering, the spaciousness of the hall invites a moment of respite. A room now dedicated to sport fits discreetly within this space, whilst a staircase with a bold design leads naturally to the upper floors. A MODULAR INTERIOR FOR EVERYONE On the main floor, the layout is clearly organised around a central mezzanine. The living areas are situated on one side, open and airy, whilst the sleeping quarters are on the other, in a more intimate atmosphere. The living area, spanning over eighty square metres, forms a fluid sequence linking the kitchen, dining room, lounge and office space. The three-sided fireplace forms its heart, radiating a warm presence that extends out onto the south-facing terrace. Below, the axis of the old wheel, preserved under glass, imbues daily life with a unique depth, bridging memory and contemporary use. Three bedrooms are situated on this level, in the sleeping area, accompanied by a dressing room, a bathroom and a toilet, in a balanced layout. The top floor, fitted out in 2022, extends this concept with two additional bedrooms and their en-suite bathroom, offering a layout suited to multiple uses. Family, guests or plans to host visitors find a natural place here, in a house designed to evolve with its occupants. BETWEEN LANDSCAPE AND FUNCTION The 5,848 m² plot unfolds around the mill in a composition where nature becomes an integral part of the living experience. The river runs through the property, flows towards a pond and shapes ever-changing views. Light accompanies every moment of the day, revealing in turn the materials, reflections and lines of the building. In keeping with this, the outdoor spaces extend the home's functionality. The steel-trough roof accommodates 240 m² of photovoltaic panels, whose output forms part of daily life whilst generating a significant annual income from the resale of electricity. Thermal comfort is provided by an Atlantic air-to-water heat pump, supplemented by reversible air conditioning on the top floor. In the immediate vicinity, Rioz offers a comprehensive living environment with shops, schools from nursery to secondary level, a medical centre and a leisure park; whilst Besançon, its TGV station and Vesoul remain accessible in under twenty-five minutes, placing the property in a location that is as practical as it is inspiring. AGENCY'S OPINION This mill asserts a unique identity, enhanced by the constant presence of water and a renovation carried out with consistency. The axis of the wheel visible beneath the living area, the layout across several levels and the five bedrooms open the way to varied uses, in tune with different lifestyles. The technical choices?from the water rights to the energy systems and recent upgrades?contribute to a well-managed whole, the quality of which is reflected in particularly low day-to-day running costs.

THE AGENCY'S OPINION This property stands out for a balance that has become hard to find on the Besançon market.

THE TERRACES OF BESANÇON Overlooking the Citadel, these hanging gardens ? awarded the 'Jardin Remarquable' designation in 2023 ? unfold as a succession of terraces painstakingly shaped over the years. Perched on the heights of Besançon, the site strikes a tangible balance between the art of living, hospitality and contemplation. A VIEWING POINT, A GARDEN SHAPED BY TIME From the path, the approach remains discreet. Then, once through the gate, the view opens up onto the Citadel, situated along the axis, like a landmark around which everything is organised. The grounds bear the traces of a gradual transformation. An initial slope has, over the years, become a succession of gardens, terraces and wooded areas designed for entertaining and sharing. Each level serves a specific purpose, revealed as you make your way through. The pathways follow this design. Your steps follow the water, which connects the spaces through a series of ponds and waterfalls. The movement becomes continuous, almost meditative. Carp appear beneath the surface, whilst vegetation frames the pathways. Awarded the 'Remarkable Garden' label in 2023, the whole expresses a harmony between plant composition, topography and function. Vegetable patches, fruit trees and ornamental vines are part of this living dynamic. Each season redefines the contours of the site. A HOME ROOTED IN ITS FUNCTIONS The entrance via the loggia provides a gentle transition. The dining room, at the centre, naturally structures the flow of movement. The west-facing living room is perfect for the end of the day and opens out onto the outdoors. Light filters through, revealing the spaces. The kitchen, organised around granite worktops and built-in appliances, extends the living spaces with fluidity. A ground-floor bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe leads into a utility room. Together, they create a seamless daily life, immediately at home. Upstairs, the bedrooms are clearly arranged around the bathroom. Clean lines follow the flow of light. THE ART OF HOSTING, THE PRIVILEGE OF CONTEMPLATION Each terrace marks a distinct moment in the journey, within a continuity where the Citadel remains ever-present, visible from one level to the next. The reception terrace welcomes guests around a large table, an outdoor bar and a pizza oven. Conversations flow naturally here, with the city in view. The kota gathers people around the central fire. Beneath the wisteria, the shade becomes a refuge, dense and cool, filtering the views and revealing glimpses of the Citadel. The swimming pool is set within a sheltered, enveloping green setting. Sun loungers are positioned within this carefully controlled space, balancing privacy and the landscape. Further on, a relaxation area features an outdoor bed, suspended between sky and foliage. The outbuilding forms part of this gradual evolution. It accommodates a seasonal activity already in place, in natural harmony with the whole. The journey continues up to the higher levels, where the views open out even further. Every step reveals a new perspective on the place. A place where the outdoors fully shapes the way of living. AGENCY'S VIEW A property shaped by time, where the garden forms the very structure of the site. Facing the citadel, the terraces organise the various uses, with each space finding its rightful place. A home where living, entertaining and welcoming guests flow seamlessly into one another.

MANOR HOUSE ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BESANÇON Just a few minutes from Besançon, this historic property reveals behind its walls a rare ensemble comprising a 19th-century mansion, a renovated guest house, and a second detached house waiting to be reimagined. Set within over two hectares of wooded grounds, the stone facades, gravel paths, and lush vegetation create a place filled with tranquility, light, and the promise of a legacy. A WALLED PROPERTY ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BESANÇON From the cul-de-sac, the property appears discreetly behind its gates and century-old trees. The property immediately evokes a sense of space rarely found in the Greater Besançon area, nestled between unspoiled countryside and quick access to shops, schools, and major thoroughfares. The main house, built in the late 19th century, stands alongside a fully renovated guest house and a second detached building currently used for storage. The layout of the estate allows for the possibility of an extended family life, spaces for entertaining, or additional uses over time. Surrounding the buildings, the landscaped grounds unfold with gentle slopes, hedges, mature trees, and views of the surrounding nature. A deeply residential setting, designed to be lived in as much as to be enjoyed. INTERIORS BLENDING OLD-WORLD ELEGANCE WITH MODERN COMFORT The main house offers approximately 190 m² spread over three levels. The spaces retain the spirit of old bourgeois mansions: high ceilings, moldings, wood paneling, wall niches, solid hardwood floors, and a wooden staircase connecting the floors. Light floods the reception rooms and living areas, which open onto the greenery and surrounding natural landscapes. The separate kitchen, centered around a central island and marble countertops, extends this atmosphere of a family home lived in day to day. The original materials interact with more contemporary elements that have been discreetly integrated. Geothermal heating, double-glazed aluminum window frames, and technical systems provide a modern take on comfort without altering the home's identity. In addition, the guest house features a separate space spread over two levels, while the garages, carports, cellars, and workshops offer a multitude of possibilities. A PLACE TO LIVE, ENTERTAIN, AND GROW The uniqueness of this property lies as much in its location as in its layout. Few estates offer more than two hectares of private land just minutes from Besançon and the Auxons TGV station. The second detached house naturally opens the door to various projects: a family guesthouse, a professional space, a caretaker's home, or a future additional residence after renovation. The property maintains a sense of privacy without isolation, striking a particularly sought-after balance between urban life and the tranquility of nature. A property designed for those seeking more than just a house: a place to call home for the long term. AGENCY'S OPINION This property has a unique presence in the Besançon landscape. The grounds, the various buildings, and the architecture of the main house form a rare ensemble, capable of accommodating both a vibrant family life and a broader legacy project.

FAMILY HOME WITH POOL IN BESANÇON Set in the elevated Montboucons neighborhood of Besançon, this family home is defined by its connection to the outdoors. Renovated in 2021, it features five bedrooms and a generous living space designed around the garden. Large glass doors open onto a cumaru wood terrace, the pool, and tree-filled grounds with a south-southeast exposure. Through the foliage, Besançon comes into view below. Inside and out feel naturally connected here, making the garden as much a part of everyday life as the rooms themselves. A LIVING SPACE DESIGNED FOR EVERYDAY LIFE The ground floor is open and cohesive, with polished concrete flooring running throughout and setting off the stone wood-burning stove and understated kitchen. The kitchen island sits at the heart of the space. It is where mornings begin over coffee and where everyone naturally gathers as dinner is prepared at the end of the day. Beyond it, expansive glass doors fill the room with natural light and keep the garden, terrace, and pool constantly in sight. Once the doors are opened in summer, indoor and outdoor living become one. This level also includes a bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs, four additional bedrooms, a shower room, and a walk-in closet create a more private floor. A mezzanine adds a flexible space that can easily become a home office, reading area, or play space as the family's needs change. OUTDOOR LIVING, FROM TERRACE TO POOL Step outside and the cumaru terrace immediately extends the living space into the garden. Its warm brown tones soften the exterior and provide a natural setting around the pool. This is where the house comes into its own in warmer weather. Meals move outdoors and linger, children go back and forth between the garden and the pool, and evenings stretch into the last light of the day. The tree-filled grounds follow the gentle slope of Montboucons, creating changing sightlines through the property. Besançon appears between the trees, visible below without ever feeling close. Whether viewed from the terrace or from the pool, the city remains a distant presence beyond the foliage. The result is a garden that feels like another living space, changing character throughout the day and from season to season. A buried 10,000-liter rainwater collection tank helps with its upkeep. MONTBOUCONS: BESANÇON WITH A SENSE OF SPACE The setting offers an appealing balance: all the convenience of living in Besançon, combined with the openness of its higher ground. Schools, shops, and healthcare facilities are nearby, with Clinique Saint-Vincent, CHU Jean-Minjoz, and Polyclinique de Franche-Comté all just a few minutes away. Practical spaces are equally well considered. The basement includes a two-car garage, laundry room, storage, and a finished wine cellar, while a carport provides additional parking outside. Radiant floor heating serves the ground floor, and the upper level is equipped with reversible air conditioning. Yet these features are not what ultimately defines the home. Its character comes from the way the spaces flow, the abundance of natural light, and a garden that is always part of the view. THE AGENT'S PERSPECTIVE ?What stands out to me is the balance this home offers. Besançon is right there when you need it, yet once you're home, there's a real sense of space and separation from the city. The living area flows naturally onto the terrace, pool, and garden, with views appearing through the trees and changing throughout the day. I can easily see a family making this home their own, especially because the spaces are flexible enough to adapt as their needs evolve over the years.' Sirine El Beggar

Thoroughly restored, it offers 199 m² of living space on a fenced, wooded lot of 1,981 m². An Aligoté vineyard, a small pond, century-old trees, and several outbuildings enhance the character of this property, designed for family life, not far from Besançon and on the road to Switzerland. A BUILDING FROM 1704, BLENDING STONE AND WOOD Behind its stone walls, this former winegrower's house tells a story spanning more than three centuries. Built in 1704, it underwent a complete renovation that continued through 2015, with a focus on preserving the elements that define its character. Exposed stone complements the beams, wood paneling, wall niches, and antique hardwood floors. These materials flow throughout the rooms, giving the house a warm atmosphere true to its origins. Spanning approximately 199 m², the living spaces are spread over two levels. The spacious living area forms the heart of the home. The fully equipped kitchen, complete with a pantry, retains a rustic feel in keeping with the home's architecture. The sleeping area comprises four bedrooms, including one on the ground floor with its own bathroom. Upstairs, the rooms feature high ceilings. A library and a second bathroom round out the interior layout. The monumental fireplace and wood-burning stove further highlight the use of fine materials and provide comfort throughout the seasons. A GARDEN WHERE THE HISTORY OF WINE-MAKING LIVES ON Outside, the property's character extends onto flat, wooded grounds. The garden features century-old trees, a vegetable garden, an orchard, and a small pond, all enclosed by hedges and period walls. A few rows of grapevines serve as a direct reminder of the house's history. Spanning approximately three ares, the Aligoté vines still anchor the property in its winemaking past and give the garden a unique identity. The equipment needed for vineyard maintenance and work is included with the property. For those who wish to continue this tradition, training is available to help with the first steps. The house also features a sheltered terrace facing southeast. The courtyard and various outdoor spaces create several pleasant pathways between the main building, the garden, and the outbuildings.

BETWEEN BESANÇON, ORNANS, AND THE FIRST PLATEAU The property is located in Les Monts-Ronds, in the Villers-sous-Montrond area, halfway between Saône and Ornans. This location allows for a close connection to the countryside while providing easy access to the region's main centers. Saône and its train station are about ten minutes away, as are Fontain and Ornans. Besançon remains easily accessible for daily needs?whether for work or school?while the property's location also allows for easy travel toward the Swiss border. The land and outbuildings offer several possibilities for living in the house. It could become a permanent family home or a charming weekend retreat. More than just a backdrop, the vineyard, stone, and trees here tell the story of a place that has been inhabited for over three centuries. THE AGENT'S PERSPECTIVE What stands out to me here is the building's charm and the quality of the restoration work. The beautiful stonework, the original features, and the spacious rooms have preserved the house's identity, while the grounds, with their trees and a few rows of vines, extend this atmosphere outdoors. A house full of character between the Saône and Ornans, with that special feeling of a place that has stood the test of time. Sylvie du Welz
