An 18th century listed private mansion, wooded parkland, lodges and outbuildings, in the historic centre of a Burgundy town. The private mansion stands in a tree-lined square. A double carriage entrance opens onto a paved passageway covered with an antique carpet. The passageway leads to an inner courtyard, flanked by the two wings of the main dwelling and enclosed by an elegant listed wrought iron gate leading to the parkland. Planted with trees and flowers, it is criss-crossed by well-designed paths lined with stone benches and ancient statues, hidden in the lush vegetation. A stone well backs onto the property, which also boasts a heated swimming pool and two lodges with restored facades. Slightly set back, a timber-framed house and its greenhouse were once the caretaker's lodge.

A 15th and 16th-century manor house, listed as a Historical Monument, its outbuildings and 12-hectare grounds in the Mayenne department. From the village, a small road leads to a private driveway up to the entrance porch, which opens onto a main courtyard. The driveway also extends behind the manor and provides access to two outbuildings located to the west. A third outbuilding encloses the courtyard to the east, near the entrance. Pastures spread out on either side of the driveway. One of them is continued to the north with the first part of an oak grove, which then unfolds towards the west. The manor’s courtyard is extended by a garden, which overlooks a small river. Two other pastures located on the other side are accessible via a bridge. Constructed partially over a basement level, the manor contains four floors, including two built into the roof space. Made out of stone and rubble and coated in plaster, its edifice is crowned with gabled slate roofs and stone rims, punctuated by dormer windows topped with sculpted ornaments. Stone mullioned windows cadence the façade and a double flight staircase leads to the front door. In the back, the body of the main building is flanked by a square tower with a tented roof, a staircase tower and a round tower with a pointed roof. To the east, a small two-storey, hipped slate roof building is attached to the square tower. A cellar, accessible from the outside, is located under a portion of the manor. Its walls are made out of small sandstone masonry, which could date to the 11th and 12th centuries. The manor’s façades and roof, as well as its eastern two-storey wing, are listed as historical monuments.

A medieval dwelling, listed as a Historical Monument, with a swimming pool and tennis court, near an 18-hole golf course and surrounded by 112 hectares, including 7 hectares of Protected Designation of Origin vineyards, near Saint-Emilion. Extending on from the Saint-Emilion plateau, the property is located in the heights of the Castillon-Côtes-de-Bordeaux appellation region, overlooking the Dordogne valley. Set back from the village, it takes advantage of its privileged position, which ensures great privacy as well as views of the valley’s remarkable environment and the surrounding vineyards and meadows. At the end of a village, the property is accessible via a private road bordered by vineyards, which then branches off into two lanes, providing access to the large wine storehouse off to one side, built during the Second French Empire, as well as, on the right, a small tenant farmer’s house, followed by several outbuildings, mostly grouped around an open courtyard, near a swimming pool and a tennis court. As for the property, it extends over more than 112 hectares of land, vineyards and forests, while vast landscaped grounds surround the medieval chateau. The latter’s partial inclusion on the list of historical monuments mentions the protection of the 14th-century dwelling, its four towers, entrance pavilion with its staircase turret, exteriors and rooftops of the other buildings that compose the edifice as well as those for the Second Empire wine storehouses, with the exclusion of the outbuildings to the west. Lastly, the contiguous vineyards guarantee great regularity for the estate’s wine production. Exclusively planted on clay-limestone hills, they benefit from natural drainage and excellent sunlight thanks to their mostly southwest exposure.

A renovated listed church and its 5,000 m² of grounds in a village 15 minutes from Poitiers. The church, designated 'basilica', stands out for its prominent position in the village. An avenue of plane trees marks the entrance to the grounds surrounding the edifice. Built of rendered limestone between 1884 and 1889, the church reflects the Medieval Revival architecture and other eclectic elements of a period marked by the influence of Viollet-le-Duc. It has a groundplan in the form of a Latin cross with a single nave. Its bell tower-porch, designed by the architect Alcide Boutaud, has an unfinished facade, known as a “bonding facade”, which lends it an almost Romanesque style, even though the structure adopts Gothic architectural references. Two metal spiral staircases flank the entrance and lead up to a balcony, where a large pointed-arch opening with double-glazing provides access to a fully restored organ. On either side of the nave, large galleries form a cloister which links the doorways to the chapels. Their entrances are embellished by two pointed arches and two attached pilasters. These galleries have been double-glazed and fitted with new-generation radiators. The entire basilica, including the sacristy, was included in the French National Heritage List by decree on 4 January 2011.

Close to La Chartre-sur-le-Loir, in a dominant position, a classified neo-Gothic castle with nearly 5 hectares of park, meadows, and woods. At the edge of the Bercé state forest and at the exit of a picturesque village with shops, the estate is set back and not overlooked, enclosed by old walls with gates or hedges. The property is organized around its castle, set on the slope of a hill, at the center of a park that mixes meadows, AOC lands, and woods. Built between 1908 and 1913 and classified MH since 1984, the residence is emblematic of the flamboyant neo-Gothic style, which was once very popular among the aristocracy and the upper bourgeoisie. With an area of approximately 275 m², it has four levels including a ground floor and an attic. The slate roofs are punctuated by numerous dormer windows. The cornices, corner chains, dormer windows, and window frames are made of tuffeau. To the east and west, stone staircases with railings lead to an entrance hall and a kitchen. The western facade is bordered by a terrace overlooking the garden. On the facades of the building, flint from the Loir valley interacts with sculpted tuffeau to recreate the aesthetic of a chivalric manor. The architecture evokes the medieval repertoire, with systematic use of the pointed arch, lancets, and stained glass, focusing on a search for light and verticality of lines. A pepperpot turret, suspended on molded corbels, flanks the residence, topped with a slate extinguishing cap. Wide stone mullioned windows punctuate the ground floor, while on the first floor, paired windows are set under their delicately sculpted pointed arches. A richly pierced stone balustrade with quatrefoils overlooks the south gable.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Perched in the hills of the Vire Valley, with 22 hectares of land, a listed chateau from the 13th and 15th centuries. On the outskirts of the city, a long tarmac driveway lined with horse chestnut trees descends towards the property’s entrance. Gradually, the landscape becomes less and less urban and the lawns on either side of the road become more expansive. The road leads to a wrought-iron gate supported by two solid schist rubble columns, extended on either side by low walls topped with fencing. Nearby, a chapel stands on a hill. On one side, the driveway runs along the length of an outbuilding, which is used as a garage, before reaching a square tower. The chateau stands on a promontory, with, as its background, the woods, which blanket the flank of the small valley and fields that border the Vire River. The fortress was built along the edge of a cliff overhanging the river by about twenty metres. Impregnable to the north, it was protected to the south by walls, towers and a drawbridge, which were destroyed in the 19th century. Today, the edifice is composed of the vestiges of an imposing construction and a wing built at a right angle to the body of the main building. Constructed out of schist rubble stone, it was built over three levels, including the attic space. Hipped dormer windows punctuate the slate roof on the side facing the Vire River. To the south, the front entrance is framed by columns, which support a straight lintel and triangular pediment. A three-sided, slightly projecting, tower houses the interior spiral staircase. It is topped with a triangular dormer with an oval oculus. A second round tower with a pepperpot turret roof is attached to a corner of the building. The mullion and cross-window surrounds are in granite ashlar stone. On the exterior corner of the two main buildings, a square extension with a slate hipped roof was built over two stories.

A former priory from the 13th century, listed as a historical monument and nestled in the Morvan regional nature park in Burgundy. Saint-Jean-des-Bonshommes priory was a monastery that was part of the Order of Grandmont. It was built at the start of the 13th century where an antique sanctuary once stood. Anséric VI, Seigneur of Montréal, ordered construction of the edifice. The monastery underwent the French Wars of Religion in the 16th century. And in 1772, when Pope Clement XIV disbanded the Order of Grandmont, it was made available to the diocesan archbishop. Following the French Revolution, the monastery was sold as national property in 1791 and became a family property up to 1846 when it was damaged by a fire that destroyed most of the monastic buildings. The church, however, survived this fire. In 1880, it became a source of stones as building material, rather like an open quarry. Moved by this fate, a learned society acquired the edifice in 1905, requested that it be listed as a historical monument and set about restoring the edifice. The remaining church is characteristic of the architectural principles of the Order of Grandmont. It is the most imposing edifice in this monastic complex. It has a plain elevation without a door, a single nave and a closed chancel, beneath a brick barrel vault that stretches to a half-dome above an apse with three windows. The chapel’s elevations are made of different stones. The lower ones, evenly sized, are neatly carved blocks and the upper ones, raw rubble stones, lie where the vault rises up. The apse is ornamented outside with four elegant built-in columns. The remains of the monastic buildings have been preserved, including the cloister arches, the elegant arcades of the chapterhouse and part of the walls of the pantries and refectory. The church has a roof of barrel ties, with conical tiles for the apse, made in a local tile factory.

In Normandy, 15 km from Bayeux, a 18th-century château listed as a historical monument, within a 60-hectare estate of land, woods, and groves. Before the entrance to the village of Vaubadon, hidden behind a dense hedge, an avenue lined with a triple row of lime trees, grassed on either side, stretches out in a slow perspective that introduces the estate. It leads to the wrought iron gate, at which lies the honor court, preceded by moats. Around it, various elements of the property are organized: the walled vegetable garden and the gardener's house, the pond, the tennis court, and then the outbuildings, established around a large central courtyard. At the back, the park, listed as a historical monument, unfolds its lines to a vast pond bordered by rhododendrons. This, more than a simple embellishment, marks a transition with the surrounding countryside, like a passage between a designed landscape and nature left to a freer expression. The regularity of the openings, the height of the roofs, and the clarity of the composition characterize the ensemble of buildings. The château features a façade exposed to the southeast, facing the courtyard, whose regular order and harmonious proportions certify its classical character. Raised over two levels under the roof and resting on a semi-buried ground floor, it is organized around a central structuring body, extended by volumes added in the 19th century. The slate roofs, punctuated by dormer windows and high chimney stacks, as well as four pavilions topped with higher roofs, rhythm the silhouette and establish the presence of the residence in the landscape. This clarity of composition, the alliance between symmetry, order, and decor, earned the château its listing as a historical monument in 2012.This description has been automatically translated from French.

In Burgundy, in Tonnerre, on the banks of a canal of the Armançon, stands an elegant 18th-century private mansion listed as a historic monument. Located on the main street of the town of Tonnerre, near the Marguerite de Bourgogne hospices, the mansion opens through an imposing porch with a carriage door operated by a wrought-iron mechanism unchanged since its construction. Formerly the property of the sister of Charles d'Éon de Beaumont, known as the Chevalier d'Éon, ambassador in the service of Louis XV, it consists of two symmetrical pavilions without a central body. The roofs and façades, listed as historic monuments, have been recently restored. While the elevations, rendered and simple, punctuated by bays with flattened or straight arches and small-paned joinery, are markers of the 18th century, the roofs of small regional flat tiles, with three or four slopes and coyaux, along with their stone dormers with lowered arches, are particularly characteristic of local architecture. Finally, the park, dotted with ancient oaks and plane trees, extends to the banks of the canal of the Armançon, offering the absolute calm of nature in the heart of the city.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A chateau from the 16th and 17th centuries listed as a Historical Monument, its outbuildings and equestrian facilities over 18 hectares of grounds between the Sarthe, Mayenne and Maine-et-Loire departments, near Sablé. Two drives lead to a carriage entrance topped with a pediment that opens onto a grand courtyard. On one side, is the chateau and, on the other, an immense outbuilding, both façades of which are punctuated by pruned yew trees, while a covered well is located in the centre. The current chateau corresponds to the former abbatial dwelling: this is where the Abbot resided, in the western wing of the abbey that once stood here. During the 18th century, the court was at Versailles and the buildings were spruced up and converted so they could be rented out, therefore providing the abbey with some revenue. With three storeys, including an attic level, the chateau is made out of plaster-coated stone and rubble stone. On the side facing the grounds, its slate hipped roof is cadenced by four bull’s-eye windows, while, on the side facing the courtyard, there are three attic dormer windows grouped together under a single pediment in addition to four other dormer windows. Both the chateau’s east and west exteriors are crowned with a pediment on their roofs, which is then repeated above the central entrance on each side. With window and door surrounds decorated with smooth rusticated stonework, the three doors on the chateau’s façade are topped with either curvilinear or triangular pediments, while its quoins, cornice and dormer windows are made out of ashlar stone. Inside, the chateau has conserved its original décor: cartouches, medallions, chimneybreasts, decorative window and door surrounds, wood panelling, marble and stone, while the size of the magnificent rooms as well as their floor-to-ceiling height add to the chateau’s overall grandeur. In addition to the topiary garden on the chateau’s eastern side, there is also a dovecote, orchard, vegetable garden, ornamental trees and a stream, which is straddled by an old bridge flanked by the columns of an ancient carriage entrance. All around, the grounds are made up of pastures, tall trees and a small wood, while equestrian facilities have been created to the west of the outbuilding, on the side facing the grounds. These include wooden paddocks, a riding ring and an area for the horses to rest and relax. The carriage entrance, the chateau’s exteriors as well as its entrance hall, vast living room, dining room and seven bedrooms are listed as national historical monuments as are the well and bridge, while the outbuilding’s exteriors and the dovecote are registered as regional historical monuments.

Thirty minutes from Angers, a listed MH village house. Flanked by two local stone pillars, an entrance gate opens onto a gravel courtyard. The imposing silhouette of the manor rises in front, with a wing of outbuildings on one side and the beginning of a garden that surrounds the building on the other. The building dates from the 16th century, but its origins are older. This is evidenced by the walls of its north and south gables, extended by later and smaller buildings. Built of stone rubble and coated with lime, the house has three levels, including one in the attic. The roof is made of Angers slate. At the center of the front facade, a pentagonal tower conceals the entrance and a staircase, with four openings on either side, two of which have mullions. The frames of the door and the openings are adorned with prism moldings and flamboyant friezes. A square tower set back at a right angle punctuates the rear facade. Transformed into a farm for over two centuries, the property was saved from ruin by the current occupants. The restoration work undertaken has been carried out in accordance with the rules of the art. The facades, roofs, and two chimneys from the 15th century have been listed MH since 1987.This description has been automatically translated from French.

15 minutes from Poitiers, a 19th-century castle partly listed as a historical monument. Accessible through several gateways, the property is hidden behind high walls and the foliage of ancient trees. From the main entrance, the castle gradually reveals itself through a line of plane trees. The building bears witness to several construction phases. From the medieval period, an old keep remodeled in the 14th century remains, which is listed as a historical monument. With a balanced plan, its facade is rhythmically adorned with large windows and dormers. The roof is slate, and the walls are plastered with exposed stone corner chains. The main extensions date back to the Renaissance, but it was in the 19th century that the most significant transformations were carried out. Turrets, dormers, large openings, and pinnacles reflect these different periods. Thus, in 1356, during the Hundred Years' War, Jean II the Good reportedly stopped here during the Battle of Maupertuis. Later, Louis XIV is said to have stayed here on his way to Saint-Jean-de-Luz for his marriage to Maria Theresa of Austria. On the railings of the high windows, there is a Latin motto: “Peace be upon this house.” To the west, a terrace bordered by columns is extended by a pergola and a fountain situated on the lawn. The outbuildings, situated away from the castle, form a varied ensemble. The entire area is surrounded by the park, woods, meadows, and orchard.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A listed 17th-century house with guesthouses and a garden designed by the famous landscape architect Jacques Wirtz, 10 minutes from Normandy's Côte d'Albâtre coastline. Just outside the village, a broad wooden gate and paved drive lead to a vast space. Two guesthouses and a garage stand on one side. The main dwelling and its extension stand on the other side. The grand house is typical of noble Norman dwellings from the mid-17th century. South-facing and rectangular in shape, it has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the tall roof space. The building is crowned with a hipped slate roof with six dormers. The elevations are made of brick. Red brickwork forms the quoins, cornices and window and door surrounds. The facade has five bays. On one side, there is a 19th-century brickwork extension. It has a two-level section with a three-slope roof, followed by a single-storey wing with a roof space. This wing houses a swimming pool. The garden was designed by the famous Belgian landscape architect Jacques Wirtz in the early 2000s. Wirtz is known for his work on two Parisian gardens: the Jardin du Carrousel garden in front of the Louvre Museum and the garden of the Élysée Palace. The property’s garden extends beyond the buildings, which it links together with paved paths, some of which are shaded. This magnificent outdoor space offers striking views.

A former priory from the 13th and 16th centuries, partially listed as a national Historical Monument, surrounded by grounds of nearly 35 hectares, on the outskirts of Tours. The property, undetectable from a street along the edge of the village, is accessible from an iron gate that opens on to a lane that ascends gradually through the woods and leads to the base of the tower and the remains of the enclosure wall, before skirting the buildings until it reaches the priory. In addition, the property is also accessible via a second gate that opens on to an immense gravel courtyard planted with flowering shrubs, which communicates with all of the buildings. On one side, a tithe barn, 40 metres long, whose exteriors, wooden rafters and roof are all listed as national Historical Monuments, stands directly opposite from the prior’s dwelling, flanked on either side by outbuildings and a tower, while, to the north, a farmhouse abuts the enclosure wall. In the middle of it all is an impressive dovecote, listed as a regional Historical Monument, as is the tower, the remains of the enclosure wall and the dwelling’s exteriors and rooftops. As for the dwelling, restored, it has become a sunny living environment, whose original features, such as its stone spiral staircase, fireplaces and pointed stone walls, have been faithfully preserved, while the property’s farmhouse has been turned into guest accommodations for six people and the barn and outbuilding at the base of the tower are used to host receptions. Lastly, the final outbuilding, half of which was transformed into public bathrooms, is still used as a workshop and could be developed further, whereas the grounds, which extend over nearly 35 hectares, are made up of woods and meadows, crisscrossed by pathways and waterways.

In Yvelines, an 18th-century chapel to renovate. Rebuilt in the 18th century by Moufle de La Tuilerie, then altered during the first half of the 19th century, the château d’Hanneucourt formed a holiday residence consisting of a main house, an orangery, a pigeon house, stables, outbuildings, and a private chapel. The latter, now desacralized, is listed as a historic monument. Located away from busy roads, it appears at the bend of an open courtyard, lined with centenary trees and outbuildings of the château, undergoing rehabilitation and transformation. The building, with an area of approximately 70 m² and a rectangular plan, features a simple architecture. The rendered facades are marked by a semicircular bay on one side and two windows with pointed arches, adorned with stained glass. The building is topped with a slate and zinc pitched roof. On the main facade, a triangular pediment crowns a quatrefoil rose window. A small lantern with a bell dominates the ridge, discreetly reminding of the original purpose of the place. In the immediate vicinity stands the former pigeon house of the estate, contributing to the uniqueness of the whole. The interior of the chapel retains a collected atmosphere, almost intact despite time and years of abandonment. The black and white checkered floor, the woodwork around the choir, the painted decorations, and the stained glass that filters the light create a meditative space. A few statues, paintings, and lecterns remain in place, like silent guardians watching over the nave. The interior volumes, relatively high for a building of this size, provide an unexpected sense of space. Light penetrates with restraint, highlighting the patinated walls and the old paneling depending on the time of day. The immediate surroundings await rethinking, leaving room for the imagination of a monastic-inspired garden or a more contemporary landscaped courtyard.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A listed historical monument, 16th-century manor with 6 hectares of grounds, in the sector of Saint-Brieuc, less than 10 minutes from the town of Quintin. The small road leading to the property is lined with relatively well spread-out trees that become denser to almost create a tunnel of foliage, after which the manor, which has been listed as a historical monument since 1967, proudly stands in the middle of a clearing surrounded by dense forest. Opposite, the manor, a vast meadow expands outwards towards the surrounding woodland. The main entrance is especially imposing due to the place’s fortified character in the past. A carriage gate accompanied by an arched pedestrian gate are both made of granite and fitted with wrought-iron railings. They open into the once enclosed courtyard. On either side, the former fortifications include several stone outbuildings: a workshop, a covered area, a log store, a former pigsty and a bread oven. According to the local archives, there was previously a drawbridge that stood astride a dry moat. The manor possesses a rectangular layout, topped by a gabled slate roof. The façade is made of rough-hewn blocks of granite, with ashlar door and window frames. There is also a monumental opening known as “the door of justice” boasting two columns with square capitals. It marked the entrance to the farmyard where yesteryear the lord of the realm exercised his right to administer justice. To the rear, the walls are covered with Virginia creeper that has slowly spread out over the building as time has gone by. The house boasts a panoramic view of the flowery and tree-filled south-facing grounds, tucked away from prying eyes.
