luxury house for sale Saint-Hilaire-Fontaine, France

Located 2.5 hours from Paris, an elegant 18th-century master house, its outbuildings, and its park overlooking the Nivernais canal. The landscape, varied and shaped by the confluence of several rivers and flat towing paths, forms a bocage countryside with hedges and wooded banks. Situated near the foothills of the Morvan regional natural park, this area includes forested zones and elevated positions with spectacular views. The village, perched high, is traversed by numerous alleys lined with stone houses. At the top of the town, an 11th-century church, listed as a historic monument, faces a large square. The residence, built around 1750, stands nearby, featuring an ornate gate. Its main facade faces west. A large enclosed courtyard, bordered on one side by a woodshed and on the other by two outbuildings (used as a workshop, boiler room, and garage), allows for vehicle parking. To the south lies the park, enclosed by walls and adorned with trees, which overlooks the Nivernais canal and includes a conservatory orchard as well as a habitable longère. Further north, opposite the other outbuildings (a small house, shelters, and old rabbit hutches), there is a well-maintained vegetable garden. A small path leads directly to the inner courtyard of the house. A stone well, over 25 meters deep and fed by a spring, ensures a good water supply all year round. The residence is three stories high, and its facade is animated by numerous openings framed by semi-louvered wooden shutters. A glass-paneled wooden door topped by a glass transom marks the main entrance, preceded by a small stone step. The roof, with two slopes of flat Burgundy tiles and restored in 2016, is punctuated by several chimney stacks. While the ground floor typically includes the living areas and a first bedroom, the upper floors concentrate the bedrooms: five on the first floor with three bathrooms or showers and one, very spacious, with a bathroom and dressing room on the second in the attic. The outbuildings, built of stone or brick and covered with traditional or flat mechanical tiled roofs, contribute to a coherent and robust architectural ensemble.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A unique, 18th-century mill, with a fully restored house, outbuildings, more than 55 hectares of grounds and a 16-hectare fishing lake, in the countryside of the former Nivernais province. The property stretches over 55 hectares on either side of a vast, approximately 16-hectare lake through which flows the River Cressonne. This water mirror forms the natural crossroads of the estate, around which the different buildings are set. A drive winds through the grounds up to a two-storey, fully restored manor house with a cellar. The limewash rendered façades are dotted with regularly shaped windows on either side of an elegant south facing entrance that can be reached via a central, double-flighted set of stone steps. To the north, the main entrance onto the garden level stands opposite the former pigsty, a witness to the estate’s rural past. The edifice is topped by a sober, dark, slate roof. A former barn stands slightly set back to the northwest. The mill building stands below the house, to the south. Its red brick façades reflect in the water of the lake on whose shores it stands. It was constructed as a grain mill and previously figured among the Nièvre area’s many water-powered buildings, whose activity was gradually abandoned with the rise of industrialisation. Its distinctive feature is its roof frame like an upturned ship’s hull. The structure is made up of light pieces of flat wood assembled using an ingenious wedge system and did not require the use of large lifting machines. It is covered with small, flat terracotta tiles that are typical of the region. This type of roof frame, known in France as a ‘Philibert Delorme’ roof frame after the architect whose technique became widespread in the 16th century, is directly inspired by the shape of a ship’s hull and enabled the entirety of the attic space to be used for storage of commodities. The waterwheel is no longer in place but it is still possible to see the tailrace and the where the water previously passed.
