A mill with full ownership rights, a mill race and mill ponds, in 9.8 hectares of greenery, near to Chenonceau, in the Cher Valley. A tree-lined drive runs past a pond up to a vast courtyard in front of the building. The 700-metre-long mill race runs through the property and underneath the building, though the water wheel and its machinery have been removed. It was purchased in the 18th century by the owners of Château de Chenonceau and was rebuilt in 1810 in the same place as the former mill that featured on Cassini’s famous map. A part of the mill, which ceased milling activity in 1967, is devoted to living space, with approximately 130 m² spread over three storeys. In the other part that measures around 400 m², all the flour milling machinery is still visible: grinders, converters, sieves and sizing rolls are spread over four storeys. A house adjoins the mill and then in turn a garage, while a guest’s house has been created in the dwelling at a right angle to these buildings. To the rear, there is an ornamental garden, a 1.5-hectare pond and woods, which all make up an uninterrupted estate of 6 hectares. Separate plots of meadows and woodland totalling approximately 4 hectares can be found nearby.

A 16th-century, three-storey house, exuding understated elegance, in the historical city centre of Orléans. The house was built in the 16th century on a street next to the Orléans Cathedral. Over the years, shops, taverns and neighbourhood boutiques have been transformed into dwellings, while the street on which the house stands was one of the first streets in Orléans to be paved and pedestrianised. Today, you can park a vehicle beneath the cathedral, less than 50 metres away. As for the rectangular dwelling, which stands on the corner and is topped with a slate gable roof, it has kept its original architecture and features four storeys over a vaulted cellar. Facing east and north, its understated and partially asymmetrical exteriors are covered in plaster with ashlar stone window/door surrounds and quoins, whereas an old wooden door and rectilinear windows, in an array of sizes, fitted with colourful stained glass or small panes, cadence the first three floors of the dwelling.

East of Sologne, a longère set within 4 ha, with dwellings, outbuildings, garages, storerooms and agricultural storage building. Set well away from neighbours and invisible from the road, the property is reached by a woodland drive and enclosed by trees and hedgerows on all sides. Its approximately 4 ha are largely grassed around the built areas, with mature trees throughout. The brick and half-timbered buildings, erected at the end of the 19th century, form a U-shaped arrangement comprising the main house flanked by two symmetrical wings: one a dwelling requiring renovation, the other given over to storerooms and garages. Together they form a coherent estate open to the forest beyond. At the property's entrance, a large agricultural storage building with an apartment above would suit a professional activity or a caretaker's residence. The roofs are covered in traditional flat tiles.

An imposing modern manor in a more than 1-hectare garden, 1 hour from west Paris, on the edge of the Eure and Yvelines areas. The residence stands in the centre of the grounds at the end of a drive lined with apple trees and is made up of a central section and two perpendicular wings. The two-storey edifice is flanked by two square towers and has many windows and hipped dormers. The building has been erected around a courtyard paved with large slabs in which a heated swimming pool has been installed. The roofs are made of flat tiles, topped by enamelled ceramic finials depicting animals, which come from the renowned Normandy pottery factory in Mesnil-de-Bavent. The facades are made of field stones with Vosges sandstone door and window surrounds plus quoins, while the guttering and downpipes are made of copper. Part of the construction materials originate from the former farm that previously occupied the land: the stones, tiles and roof frame were recovered, sorted and re-purposed. The northern wing includes an approximately 100-m² barn with an automatic door. In the garden near to the riverbanks, an around 50-m² two-storey brick house is currently used as storage space.

This estate is in a wild, wooded setting, with a view over the surrounding countryside. It is reached via two driveways, one reserved for visitors and the other for tradespeople. The first is a long avenue, with woods and meadows on either side. It is barred halfway along by gates, flanked by tall pillars, and is dotted with old streetlamps, lighting the way to the entrance courtyard in front of the castle, with the keep looking on. It precedes the old chapel, the top section of which is now converted into a bedroom, followed by a house that could be used as a caretaker’s cottage and, lastly, the castle. Driveways lead from the entrance courtyard to the rear where there are carparks and meadows, delimited by hedges. A pathway gives access to the south-facing, swimming pool area, surrounded by safety fencing and partially enclosed by old walls.

An18th-century manor house, on a former wine-growing estate of 12 hectares, with wine warehouses, outbuildings, grounds, a pond and woods, 60 kilometres from Tours. A small country road skirts the property’s tall stone walls, followed by its initial outbuildings before reaching its gate, which faces a wide tree-lined lane that extends between fields and farm tracks. At the property’s gate, a stone wall opens onto a wide courtyard, planted in the middle with two impressive Chinese mulberry trees, while, the manor, visible in the background, is flanked by its outbuildings on either side. Dating from the 18th century, the property was originally a wine-growing estate, while the two-storey manor, built in the Directoire style out of local stone, embodies traditional architecture, specific to the region. With an inhabitable floor area of approximately 435 m², the dwelling consists of a long central structure – the main façade of which is cadenced by doors and small-paned windows – flanked on either side by two adjacent lower extensions and topped with a slate roof, which is, in turn, crowned with zinc ornamental décor and finials. As for the back of the house, although different from the front, it still combines the elegance of the dwelling's symmetrical rectilinear windows and shed dormers with, in the middle, a unique triangular pediment, which adds a touch or originality to the whole. In addition, vaulted cellars extend under the entire building, while, to one side, a completely independent five-room caretaker’s cottage abuts a large courtyard, former stables and agricultural storage buildings, which are also accessible from the small country road via a second gate, providing an independent and more inconspicuous entrance. Moreover, the property also includes, on the other side of the front courtyard, another outbuilding, which is currently used as a holiday cottage with a capacity of 6 to 8 people. With a grass-covered, shady interior courtyard, this building has its own private entrance via a separate gate and faces a former wine warehouse, today reconverted into a reception hall with hardwood floors.

Between Tours and Vendôme, a fully renovated former mill, with outbuildings and 1.3-hectare tree-filled grounds. From the centre of the village, a narrow street leads to the property. There are two entrance gates, one to the front and one to the rear of the buildings. The first opens onto a parking area and a car port where two vehicles can be parked. A drive runs through part of the grounds, through which the River Brenne flows, and leads around the former mill to a patio enclosed by a wooden fence with a gate in front of the building, which is made up of two edifices and was built with rubble stone covered with rendering. The different sized windows have brick frames, which is typical of the region, and the large patio doors on the ground floor let light stream generously into all the rooms. A former lean-to standing against the gable end has been transformed into a summer kitchen and is glazed on three sides. Five bedrooms and a vast office space are spread over the first two floors. The attic level forms a single room and the whole building has recently been fully renovated. Next to the mill, an outbuilding with a bread oven could be converted, as could the brick outbuilding alongside the narrow street. Opposite the mill, a barn is used for storing gardening material and also serves as a workshop. The banks of the mill race have been planted with flower beds and the grounds are very well kept, with a variety of trees, a range of landscaped spaces, lawns and a vegetable garden.

A renovated village house with authentic charm, a guesthouse and a tree-dotted garden full of flowers, nestled in the south of France’s Touraine province. The property’s two houses share a courtyard and garden on a walled plot that covers around 1,100m². From a village road that runs alongside the main house, a low wooden gate leads onto a drive that takes you to a courtyard between the two dwellings. From a village square, a second gate, which is tall, made of wrought iron and framed between tuffeau stone pillars, leads onto a gravelled driveway that takes you into the garden. The different buildings are separate from one another. They face east and west. There is a main dwelling, a guesthouse and a small outbuilding. Exposed stonework forms the elevations, dressed tuffeau stone forms the window and door surrounds and flat tiles cover the roofs. Each building has a terrace.

A renovated 15th-century manor, with an outbuilding and 1.5-hectare grounds, located near the birthplace of Ronsard in the Loir River Valley. Dating from the Renaissance, the property, neither a national or regional historical monument, is currently located in a protected area and originally formed a hamlet with the surrounding enclosed properties. From a small country lane, a drive leads to one of the property’s five separate entrances. Once past the main entrance, there is a small pavilion, which was converted into a guesthouse, followed by the two-storey, rectangular manor house. Originally from the 15th century, its central building is topped with a local tile gable roof and punctuated by tall cross-windows. Flanked on one side by a stairway tower with a modillion frieze and a slate roof, on the manor’s other gable end, stands a more modest one-storey building topped with an ancient tile roof. With plaster-coated walls, the manor is decorated with an ashlar stone cornice under the eaves as well as tuffeau stone window and door surrounds. In addition, the frames for the house’s single- or double-glazed cross-windows have all been replaced and are safeguarded by interior shutters. Behind the house, 14 cellars have been hollowed out of the hillside, some of which once contained mushroom beds of varying depths. According to local legend, they also once communicated with the nearby Possonnière manor house where Pierre de Ronsard was born. Lastly, the property’s grounds also include a formal garden, an Italian-inspired garden, a landscaped garden, pinewoods, a dry riverbed and a pasture.

A charming village dwelling with an interior courtyard, farmhouse and garden, along the banks of a river, in a lively village not far from the chateau of Chambord. Located in the middle of a village, but well enough set back in order to be immersed in total peace and quiet, the property, enclosed by old walls and hedges, is sheltered from view and completely invisible from the street. Turned towards its interior courtyard with an annexe farmhouse, followed by a garden, which descends towards the Beuvron, the famous river of Sologne, the house is accessible either directly from the street or via a pathway – with a deed of easement – through the next-door property, which leads to the interior courtyard. As for the main dwelling, with a floor area of approximately 192 m², it is built out of stone and covered with an old tile roof, while the courtyard, with nearly 400 m², includes several annexe buildings, such as a woodshed, storage rooms, a climate-controlled wine cellar, as well as a farmhouse with approximately 110 m² that faces a landscaped garden. It should be noted that all of the buildings are in excellent condition and still bear many of their ancient decorative details. In addition, another building, located on the other side of the street and facing the main dwelling, is large enough to accommodate several vehicles, while an upstairs floor of approximately 60 m², awaits its reconversion.

Featuring a fibre-cement roof over the central wing and slate versions over the lateral pavilions, directly opposite the manor, a group of outbuildings abut the rocky hillside, after which the estate was named, while a formal garden acts as a link between the patio and an ornamental pavilion. As for the grounds, with a wooded area overlooking a pasture, they exude a bucolic and peaceful ambiance.

A characterful, renovated house with a garden and annexes, in a village in the north of France’s Loiret department, an hour and a half south of Paris. The house was built in 1850. It bears witness to an ancestral tradition in agriculture, based on winegrowing and saffron. In the village, several dwellings with monumental doors evoke life from yesteryear, before the rise of large-scale cultivation of cereal and fodder. You enter the house from a small square set back from the main street, via a covered carriage entrance or a door that leads straight inside the dwelling. The covered carriage entrance forms a link between the house and two outbuildings, which together form an L shape on a 600m² plot. A small terrace, a walled garden and a well in perfect condition complete the property. The facade is made of rubble stone with lime pointing. It features semicircular-arched wooden window frames, set behind decorative stone columns crowned with capitals. The house offers a 180m² floor area. It has a ground floor and a first floor, as well as a loft space. It forms an L shape in one of the corners of the plot. An extension, lower in height, houses a kitchen. The interior has been renovated masterfully in recent years to offer modern comfort, with home automation for the heating and alarm system, yet with historical features preserved, including exposed stonework and beams, a stone fireplace and cast-iron radiators.

A former abbatial dwelling, listed as a regional Historical Monument, with a walled garden and canal, in a historical Touraine village, near Loches. In the middle of the village, the edifice, listed as a regional Historical Monument and in all likelihood dating back to the 14th century, was once the residence for a Benedictine abbey, whose 18th-century buildings still stand directly opposite. With three storeys, the dwelling features a tall and wide gable end, facing the street, with stone edging, as well as a 'Montpellier squinch' with stone corbels, while its slate roof is typical of buildings from the 15th and 16th centuries. As for the main façade, perpendicular to the street and overlooking the garden, the latter of which is accessible via a gate and bordered by a small canal, it boasts a number of various size windows as well as two square turrets on either side, including one topped with a slate hipped roof, whereas on its street side, an ancient wing, built out of ashlar stone, is topped with a flat tile single-pitch roof. Last, but not least, the dwelling’s northern side and western gable end, facing the canal and also crowned with stone edging, were visibly adjusted in the 17th century with the addition of three large windows on each floor in order to make them blend in seamlessly with the 'new' perpendicular wing from the same era, which is now a separate property.

The environment provides a sense of countryside and escape while remaining in immediate proximity to the infrastructure and services of Argenton-sur-Creuse, a dynamic municipality known for its tourist appeal, heritage, and quality of life. Significant work has been done recently. The roof of the mill and its insulation have been entirely redone in 2025. The roof of the outbuilding has also undergone a complete revision that same year. The property is now presented in a state allowing immediate exploitation of the existing tourist activity, without any major investment planned. This property will appeal to both a project holder wishing to combine quality of life and professional activity as well as an investor or operator wanting to develop a tourist, event, or hospitality activity. The quality of the existing fittings, the available volumes, the accommodation capacity already in place, and the exceptional character of the site constitute a particularly solid foundation. Everyone is free to bring their vision and shape a project in line with their ambitions. Opportunities of this nature remain rare in the sector. A place where heritage, nature, economic activity, and quality of life meet within the same real estate ensemble. Agency fees payable by the seller.
