Mas Uzès (30)

This ocean of natural bushland, stretching as far as the eye can see, is enveloped by holm oaks and junipers, for lovers of nature and responsible philosophy; it offers a way of life in perfect symbiosis with nature, witness to a harmonious relationship with ecosystems. A woodland path provides access to the estate, set in 5,000 m² of land, away from the hustle and bustle of our urban society and its nuisances. This property takes you to a bend in a grove of dry-stone walls and ‘capitelles’ (dry stone huts), with echoes of a prosperous period when woodcutters and bucolic shepherds criss-crossed the forest buzzing with life. A village well-stocked with shops is just a few kilometres from the property, and the motorway and rail networks can be reached in an hour, not forgetting Uzès, the first Duchy of France, the famous Place aux Herbes and the Ducal castle - 30 minutes away. The buildings once housed all the traditional activities typical of this region of Occitanie, including a silkworm farm, cellars, sheds, barns, a sheepfold, workshop and bread oven, all solidly built from local stone and enlarged over the centuries to meet the needs of the animals, to house workers and store equipment, or to accommodate new births into the family. Traditionally, mulberry trees were grown here to raise silkworms and sheep. For the time being, the living area, which is accessible from the courtyard, is being comfortably renovated. The farmhouse offers 550m2 of potential living space, including a 105m2 apartment and 242m2 of outbuildings. This property is ideally suited to a seasonal rental project and to the latest trends for travellers looking for space and comfort, as well as unusual and eco-friendly breaks. A property presented by Botella Real Estate (since 1989). Agency fees are to be paid by the vendor. Ref: 2608

House with pool Montpellier (34)

An impressive 19th-century family house and its outbuildings set in 2 5 ha of enclosed grounds on the outskirts of Montpellier. The mansion, referred to as a 'maison de maître', an architectural term used since ancient times, was inhabited by the owner of the rural estate on which it was built. Dating back to the end of the 19th century and standing on the edge of the city but not far from its centre, the sober, unadorned residence exuded comfort and a promise of family happiness, while at the same time embodying the fulfilment of a new social dream: that of attaining the prosperity of the affluent 'bourgeois' class. From a track that runs through part of the village, a tall, wrought-iron double gate featuring cone-shaped spearhead finials framed by two stately stone pillars with geometric carvings and capitals surmounted by a vase bearing a globe, provides access to the property. Directly opposite the entrance gate rises the main facade, with four generous openings on each level, topped by a four-pitched roof of monk-and-nun tiles. At the end of the rather steep slope on which the mansion is built, the outbuildings come into view: the caretaker's lodge which is still in use, an old shed and, forming a corner boundary, a dovecote with a conical stone roof. The enclosed wooded grounds shelter the residence from the hustle and bustle of the city and feature an old horseshoe-shaped pool fed by a continuously running water fountain set back from the house, as well as a more recent swimming pool. Today, the house bears ample evidence of the changes that have been made to alter its original configuration. But it has retained some noteworthy features, both inside and out: old-fashioned shutters and elaborate railings, original floors of grey Montpellier stone and terracotta quarry tiles, numerous marble fireplaces, sometimes with ornamental overmantels, and fixed stucco transoms above some of the doors.
