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.

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.'

A RENEWED BUILDING WITH RETAINED CHARM At first glance, the jointed stone facades immediately set the tone and reveal the timeless charm of the building. On the street side, the anthracite aluminum frames contrast and reinforce the character of the building, while on the park side, the original color of the frames has been retained to highlight the authentic and natural aspect of the house. Inside, the more than 340m² has been tastefully renovated while preserving the authentic charm of the places. Beyond the parquet floors and fireplaces, the main one being functional, we particularly love the living room and the master bedroom where the connection with the park brings a unique atmosphere. The ceiling height of over 3.20m in the original part also contributes to the warm ambiance that prevails in this house. Meanwhile, the renovation has provided modern comfort, notably with the installation of central heating powered by a state-of-the-art pellet boiler and the replacement of all windows.

A LANDSCAPED PARK Once you cross the house, the break is clear, and you are transported into a green bubble where only the blue of the heated swimming pool and the sky balances with the green of the sometimes centuries-old trees. The more than 60 ares fully enclosed by walls provide a real breath of fresh air and greatly contribute to making this property extraordinary. MULTIPLE OUTBUILDINGS Creating a barrier with the street, a three-body building is present at the front of the property. Historically, this building was used to protect and maintain carriages; today, it serves as a carport, storage, and workshop. Adjacent to the house, the former stables now house a bike garage, a workshop, and the pellet silo. Access to the attics, part of which is an attic, also occurs through this space. Finally, two cellars, one vaulted and one room converted into a gym, complete the visit of this rare property on the 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.

In the heart of Besançon, in the popular district of La Butte, a 1920s townhouse cleverly reinvented by an architect is unveiled. This singular property of about 145 m2 offers a striking contrast between the charm of the old and the clean lines of an extension resolutely modern. A true jewel of atypical real estate, the property immediately seduces with its lush and intimate exteriors, its vast terrace, and its fluid layouts, rare features on the Besançon luxury real estate market. The entrance is through a green patio inviting to discover the interior spaces. The extension reveals a bright and generous living room, open to the surrounding nature. The aesthetics of the place is based on a subtle mix of materials where the rough concrete, the authenticity of brick and the warmth of wood coexist. The layout includes a kitchen in two parts, a dining room, as well as a master suite with a bedroom overlooking the garden, a bathroom and a dressing area. The historic part of the building houses a second dining room with an assertive character. The first level distributes a bathroom and two bedrooms, one of which opens onto a large sunny terrace. The upper floor reveals a last attic room. The whole exudes a deeply warm, colorful and very artistic atmosphere. On the outside, the first teeming garden has plenty of surprises in store, like its shelter discreetly converted into a wellness area with sauna and shower. Extending the walk by a small stone path, a second fully enclosed green space emerges, offering an unsuspected haven of peace. The immediate environment is a major asset: this prime location allows you to enjoy an entirely pedestrian lifestyle. The city centre, shops and schools are just a few steps away, ensuring an easy and pleasant neighbourhood life. This architectural achievement perfectly illustrates the art of living in a redesigned townhouse, brilliantly combining history, contemporary daring and functionality.

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

ART DECO ELEGANCE IN THE HEART OF AN URBAN GARDEN 1930S ART DECO HOUSE IN THE CENTRE OF VESOUL Some houses tell the story of an era with rare accuracy. This residence, built in 1930, is one of them. Its architecture bears the signature of architect Paul Giroud, a leading figure in regional architecture between the two world wars. Even today, it reveals the elegant rigour and clean lines characteristic of this period. Behind its structured façade, the rooms are harmoniously arranged. The old parquet floors complement the light Comblanchien stone, while the cherry and ash wood panelling creates a warm and refined atmosphere. Light floods through the rooms thanks to the large windows that punctuate the façades and accompany the volumes throughout the day. The wooded garden, vast and unexpected in the heart of the city, gives the property an almost private feel. In this sought-after residential environment, the property combines architecture, history and potential for development. A home for lovers of living heritage who appreciate the beauty of 20th-century architecture. AN INTERIOR IMPRINTED WITH THE ELEGANCE OF THE 1930S Behind its stone façade, the house reveals an interior where Art Deco architecture is expressed with consistency and precision. Built in 1930 by architect Paul Giroud, a graduate of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and an active figure in regional architecture between the wars, the residence retains many characteristics of this period. The antique parquet floors feature delicate patterns, while the light Comblanchien stone elegantly highlights the circulation areas. Cherry and ash wood panelling adorns the walls and some of the built-in storage units, adding depth and warmth to the living spaces. The high ceilings and ironwork details are testament to the craftsmanship that gives the whole property a timeless atmosphere. Light flows freely thanks to the numerous windows that accompany the volumes and highlight the materials. The reception rooms are organised around a large living room where the generous proportions create an immediate feeling of space and fluidity. The Art Deco staircase, punctuated by an elegant wrought iron banister, is one of the most striking features of the house and structures the flow between the different levels. The clear and balanced interior layout allows for different ways of living in the space. It meets the needs of family life as well as a project combining home and professional activity. THE GARDEN, A RARE BREATH OF FRESH AIR IN THE HEART OF THE CITY At the rear of the property, the grounds feature a large wooded area, which is particularly rare for a house located in the centre of Vesoul. The century-old trees form a dense canopy that preserves the privacy of the property while allowing light to filter through. The open views offer an unexpected feeling of space in an urban environment. Throughout the seasons, the garden reveals different atmospheres. The first blooms accompany the return of sunny days and naturally extend the living spaces outdoors. Summer invites you to enjoy the light shade of the tall trees, while autumn highlights the lines of the house with golden hues. The terrace facing the garden then becomes a privileged place for shared moments or moments of calm. The property also stands out for its approximately 200-square-metre outbuilding, which houses an indoor swimming pool. Built in the 1970s by architect André Maisonnier, a former collaborator of Le Corbusier's studio, this construction introduces an unexpected dialogue between modern architecture and Art Deco heritage. The pool, accompanied by relaxation and service areas, opens up new possibilities for use and harmoniously completes the ensemble. VESOUL, BETWEEN URBAN HERITAGE AND NATURAL LANDSCAPES Located in the heart of Vesoul, the house benefits from a lively and pleasant urban environment. Shops, schools and everyday services are part of an accessible and vibrant urban fabric. This proximity enhances the residential quality of the property while allowing you to fully enjoy the pace and conviviality of the town centre. Vesoul has a rich history and an architectural heritage marked by different periods that today shape its identity. The old streets, characterful façades and lively squares make up an urban landscape where tradition dialogues with contemporary life. On the outskirts of the city, the natural landscapes offer many opportunities for escape. Lake Vaivre is a popular spot for water sports and walks, while the hills of the Cita plateau and the unspoilt areas of the Sabot de Frotey nature reserve bear witness to the environmental richness of the region. The region is also distinguished by the presence of major architectural sites, including the Ronchamp Chapel, an iconic work by Le Corbusier. Between city and nature, Vesoul offers a balanced living environment where heritage, culture and landscapes come together in harmony. AGENCY'S OPINION This 1930s Art Deco house sta

In the heart of Baume-les-Dames, halfway between Besançon and Montbéliard, this 164 sq m (1,776 sq ft) townhouse offers a rare compromise between city living and a verdant oasis. Just steps from shops and services, it benefits from a pleasant enclosed garden that creates a true green retreat in an area prized for its proximity to the Doubs Valley and its natural landscapes. Redesigned in the late 1990s, the house breaks free from traditional design principles, offering a triplex layout punctuated by split levels, open vistas, and more intimate spaces. This design plays with volumes and gradually reveals its different facets. The ground floor features a generous living area arranged around a double living and dining room. Large bay windows extend the views towards the garden and allow abundant natural light to flood in. A central fireplace connects the spaces and contributes to the warm atmosphere of the home. Extending from the living area, the kitchen also maintains a privileged connection with the outdoors. A laundry room, direct access to the garage, and a WC complete this level. On the first floor, a spacious bedroom with a built-in wardrobe benefits from its own bathroom, equipped with a shower and a bathtub. A second bedroom boasts a particularly interesting layout, organized into several areas that allow for the separation of sleeping, working, and leisure spaces. Combined with its own shower room, it forms a truly independent space. A separate WC completes this floor. The top floor continues this architectural exploration with a more open space, where transparency and interior perspectives suggest various layout possibilities. Depending on your needs, it could accommodate one or two additional bedrooms, an office, or a leisure area, with a shower room already in place. Outside, the garden is one of the house's delightful surprises. In the heart of the city, this enclosed space forms a verdant oasis where terraces, greenery, and a jacuzzi create an ideal setting for relaxation. The various amenities blend seamlessly into this preserved environment, offering a welcome extension of the living spaces and a sense of privacy rarely found in an urban setting. As you explore, this house reveals a thoughtful design, where each level and each space finds its place. A confident interior architecture, an unexpected garden, and a privileged location between town and country combine to create a unique ensemble, which can now be reinterpreted with a touch of modernity to unlock its full potential.

In the heart of Baume-les-Dames, this characterful villa seems frozen in time, as if awaiting a new chapter. Behind its facades, dormant for over a decade, lies a rich history and rare potential. From the moment you step inside, the volumes, perspectives, and architectural details testify to the prominent position this residence once held in the local landscape. The rehabilitation project is ambitious and is aimed at both heritage enthusiasts and those undertaking large-scale projects. The renovation can be undertaken in its entirety or in stages, according to individual preferences. The possibilities are numerous, as the spaces offer considerable freedom in their design. Built on a solid foundation that could easily be transformed into a true garden level, the building is organized over four levels. Two main floors for reception and living areas, complemented by an attic suitable for conversion, offer the potential for nearly 600 m² of usable space in the long term. Throughout the rooms, numerous original features remain, deserving of preservation and enhancement: antique parquet floors, cement tiles, generous ceiling heights, large windows that flood the space with light, and remarkable volumes. The current layout already suggests significant potential, with the possibility of creating more than 10 bedrooms and multiple living areas. Several existing water features also facilitate future planning. Outside, the park, spanning over 6,000 m², extends the charm of the property. Structured on different natural levels, it boasts several listed century-old trees, offering a rare atmosphere in the heart of the city. The various natural terraces of the grounds invite the creation of landscaped gardens, reception areas, or relaxation spaces that benefit from a preserved environment. The location is another major advantage. Less than 5 minutes from the train station and less than 10 minutes from the highway, the property enjoys exceptional accessibility. The dynamism of Baume-les-Dames, its proximity to the Doubs Valley, and the area's tourist appeal further enhance the attractiveness of a residential, tourism, or commercial project. Some properties simply need to be lived in. Others await reinvention. This one undoubtedly belongs to the latter category. A blank canvas of character, ready to regain its luster in the hands of those who can reveal its full potential. Not subject to the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) requirement.
