A FAMILY HOME ON THE EDGE OF THE CHAUX FOREST On the edge of the Chaux Forest, within the triangle formed by Dole, Arbois, and Arc-et-Senans, Le Clos Sylvestre is a secluded retreat where nature shapes every view. Reimagined with a contemporary wood-frame extension, this family home is set within a 3,737 m² wooded park dotted with majestic trees, terraces opening onto the landscape, and a heated pool. A property designed to combine everyday comfort, energy efficiency, and a relaxed lifestyle in the heart of the Jura. THE LANDSCAPE AS THE PRIMARY SETTING Behind its gate, a long paved path leads to a reimagined silhouette. The original 1967 house now dialogues with recently built timber-frame extensions, offering a contemporary architectural style oriented toward light and the garden. The living spaces are organized around large windows that naturally extend the view toward the trees and clearings of the park. The living room enjoys a particularly pleasant west-facing orientation when the light filters through the foliage. The fully equipped kitchen contributes to this interior fluidity, where each space maintains a direct connection with the outdoors. On the ground floor, the bedrooms and bathrooms enhance everyday comfort, while a mezzanine adds an extra dimension to the space. A GARDEN EXTENDING INTO THE FOREST Here, the property seems to naturally extend into the nearby forest. Centuries-old trees mark the seasons, filter the light, and provide a constant presence of greenery that accompanies every moment of the day. Around the heated pool, the terraces become living spaces in their own right. Mornings linger to the east in soft light, while evenings naturally find their place on the west terrace opening onto the park. The immediate proximity of the Chaux Forest invites you to take walks, bike rides, or long escapes into one of France's largest deciduous forests. A CONTEMPORARY VISION OF LIVING Le Clos Sylvestre also captivates with the coherence of its transformation. High-performance insulation, a heat pump, solar panels, dual-flow ventilation, and home automation contribute to a contemporary approach to comfort?discreet in its execution yet highly effective in daily life. The outbuildings and garages, already connected to the necessary utilities, offer exciting possibilities for expansion to accommodate family and friends or to develop a complementary project. Just fifteen minutes from Dole, its TGV station, and its airport, the property enjoys a rare balance between connectivity and immersion in nature. Arbois, the Jura wine-growing landscapes, and the Royal Saltworks of Arc-et-Senans further enrich the living environment of this unique address. THE AGENCY'S OPINION Le Clos Sylvestre embodies a way of living where contemporary architecture harmonizes with a remarkable forest setting. A property that offers both the potential for a lasting family home and a weekend retreat in the heart of one of the Jura's most inspiring regions.

20 minutes to the east of Tours, a former outbuilding, transformed into a pleasant family home with a garden. An iron gate opens from the street onto a gravelled parking area that leads up to the courtyard in front of the entrance to the house on one side and to the garden at the foot of the slope on the other side. This former outbuilding has been fully transformed and was enhanced by an extension in 2005. While outside only the brick window frames and a part of the building pay witness to its past, inside the partially exposed stone walls are well-preserved and combine with modern architecture. It has been designed as a family home, with six bedrooms ready to welcome new occupants, large west-facing windows and a vast reception room that opens onto the garden. There are three cellars in the hill slope and a flight of steps leads to a wooded area at its summit.

On the Emerald Coast, close to the center and the beaches, a contemporary villa with sea view and nearly 3000 m² of land. The property is hidden at the end of a cul-de-sac that also serves two neighboring houses. A landscape of meadows and heaths stretches all around, with the English Channel on the horizon. Composed of two L-shaped sections and a setback, the house is topped with a slate roof featuring two and four slopes. It is built of concrete and granite rubble. The whole is partially elevated, with a basement and a garage.This description has been automatically translated from French.

In Bénodet, in southern Brittany, in a marine cove, a farmhouse and its outbuildings await renovation completion. The property is partially defined by old stone walls. It consists of three distinct sets. Facing the marine cove, a stone longhouse, an old agricultural outbuilding from the 18th or 19th century, requires a complete rehabilitation. Set back at an angle from its southern gable, a two-story farmhouse dates from the early 20th century. It is extended by a contemporary addition at its gable. Interior renovations have been started but need to be completed. A large shed, built at the end of the last century, closes off the northeast corner.This description has been automatically translated from French.

An immense farmhouse, its guesthouse and swimming pool, on grounds of 4,400 m², only a few kilometres from the ocean, in the Breton Marshes of Vendée. Surrounded by canals, both large and small, water is used as a natural property line to the south, while hedgerows of tamarisk line either side of the small access lane, which leads to a double gate framed by white pillars. The latter opens on to a grassy drive that eventually leads to the house of 232 m², after passing, on one side, a separate cottage of around 32 m², which abuts a garage of approximately 33 m². Constructed horizontally with one storey, these two buildings are typical of rural hamlets in the Vendée region, while the U-shaped farmhouse features a silhouette emblematic of traditional architecture, which has now been adapted to a more contemporary living style. Featuring stone walls covered in white roughcast rendering that reflect the smallest amount of sunlight, its shutters, painted grey-blue, recall the reflections of the nearby ocean, whereas its gently sloping gable roofs clearly stand out from the landscape thanks to the orangey colour of its barrel tiles, which are highlighted, in turn, by an immaculate genoise cornice. As for the central building, framed by two wings added at a later date, it encloses an immense space designed for leisure and well-being. In the middle, the turquoise swimming pool and spa create a haven for relaxation, protected from the wind and sheltered from view thanks to dense vegetation, while palms, olives and a variety of shrubs ubiquitous to southern France create an almost island-like feel here. Lastly, extending over approximately 4,400 m², the verdant property is planted with an array of mature trees and shrubs, which provide plenty of shade as well as privacy for the whole.

A former municipal tax collection office renovated into a village dwelling, between Mount Lozère and Mount Aigoual, in the Cévennes National Park. In the village, the former municipal tax collection office – which once housed the local school a century ago – has been entirely restored and converted into cosy guest accommodations. With approximately 170 m², the house stands out thanks to its high ceilings and rooms bathed in light, which provide 180° panoramic views of the surrounding Cévennes valleys that extend as far as the eye can see. Facing south, it marks the village’s southern border and is extended by a wooden patio that seems to float above the landscape. As for its renovations, they were able to conserve the soul of the premises, while still retaining its original materials and incorporating all modern comforts, such as a pellet furnace, fibre optic cable, a contemporary kitchen and bathrooms.

In Beaujolais, at the entrance of a chateau's park, an old outbuilding has been converted into a contemporary dwelling along with its 1,780 m² land. The house, built in an L-shape, is situated at the entrance of the triangular plot extending down to the nearby stream. It retains the characteristics of 19th-century outbuildings, featuring prominent eaves that protect the clay-lime plastered facades. The gabled roofs, covered with terracotta canal tiles, highlight the pediment crowning the tall central bay window. Likely stemming from a dual purpose, combining agricultural activity and housing for the property's caretaker, the now renovated house must have once included an area to shelter horses, as well as another for the horse owners. Both areas were opened up and unified by an architect in the 2000s, creating a contemporary residential farm spanning 247 m². In the grassy grounds planted with large trees, beyond the well, stands a small building for storing equipment and garden furniture.This description has been automatically translated from French.

In Portes-en-Ré, a contemporary villa inspired by the island's architecture, over 300 m², with its swimming pool and gym. Behind a long white wall, the property gradually reveals itself in the spirit of the large Rêtaise houses. A gate opens onto a gravel courtyard, while a pedestrian door in the wall leads to a covered porch that marks the entrance. A welcoming garden consists of bamboo, palm trees, grasses, and Mediterranean plants. Beyond that, the villa appears in fragments and is organized into several volumes arranged around various successive patios. The old Rêtaise houses often resulted from the gradual aggregation of buildings related to the activities of salt-makers or winemakers. Living spaces, salt warehouses, or old cellars were connected by courtyards protected from the wind. The property adopts this logic in a contemporary interpretation. The lime-rendered facades, dark shutters, and canal tile roofs reflect the architectural codes of the island, while large glass openings establish a fluid relationship with the outdoors. The entire project, in its volumes as well as its interior arrangements, was designed by architect Jeanne Dumont. The materials assert the character of the building: brick floors laid in a dark pattern on the ground floor, oak flooring with small strips on the upper level, fine carpentry, wooden paneled ceilings, and often custom-made furniture.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A stately 19th-century villa, surrounded by tree-filled grounds, with outbuildings and a swimming pool, in the middle of a city with strong architectural heritage, two hours from Paris, in Burgundy. Located in a very residential neighbourhood with wide, tree-lined avenues bordered by many private mansions with impressive façades and appreciated for its tranquillity and discreetness, the property is accessible via a spiked entrance gate, which opens on to the grounds, as well as a second entrance from another avenue that provides vehicular access to a gravel parking area. As for the manor house, it was erected in the middle of the grounds, while its main façade, set back from the street, faces north and its southern exterior, facing the garden, looks out on to the tiled swimming pool. The original three-storey building, with a central layout and an attic level, features stone-colour plaster exteriors as well as a slate and zinc Mansard roof, while a lateral two-storey wing with a roof terrace was added at a later time to the west. Extending on from this wing, a modern conservatory was created next to the swimming pool, whereas immense grounds planted with lawn and tall trees, some of which are multi-century, is landscaped with shrubs and flowerbeds and scattered here and there with several peaceful nooks, ideal for relaxation, under the shade of a tree or near the swimming pool.

L'Étang-la-Ville, on the edge of the forest, a contemporary family house of more than 300 m², with a large garden and a swimming pool. At the edge of the Marly-le-Roi state forest, built on a plot of nearly 1,300 m², the house rises over two levels. On the ground floor, as you enter, thought of as a zen space, a reception area of about 90 m² unfolds. It includes a living room structured around a fireplace equipped with an insert, a dining room, and, extending from there, a semi-open kitchen. While a merbau parquet floor, an exotic species known for its durability, highlights the unity of the places, the entire space is bordered by large bay windows and opens at ground level onto a vast terrace. The level also includes a master bedroom, with its shower room and a private terrace. There are also guest toilets as a complement. A concrete and resin staircase leads to the upper floor where a landing distributes two large additional bedrooms, the first with its shower room, the second with its bathroom and a balcony overlooking the garden. Three other bedrooms and a bathroom are added to this level. Outside, the house unfolds its volumes around a spacious terrace made of exotic wood, a true extension of the reception rooms. The large bay windows establish a constant dialogue between indoors and outdoors, allowing light to circulate throughout the day. The garden, densely planted and carefully organized, surrounds a small swimming pool with contemporary lines, bordered by weathered wood decking. A summer pavilion, sheltered under a stretched canvas and protected by curtains, forms an outdoor lounge ideal for long summer days as well as more intimate evenings. Further away, the lawn and its large trees blend with the neighboring forest.This description has been automatically translated from French.

20 minutes from Rennes, by its private pond, a vast renovated manor with a swimming pool and outbuildings. By its pond, the large 16th-century manor is surrounded by a wooded park of more than 1 hectare, crossed by canals and waterfalls. The renovated exterior is complemented by a contemporary interior, where a large indoor swimming pool connects to sauna and hammam areas. The main living space, with nearly 400 m² of habitable space, is complemented by an independent apartment of approximately 80 m², a gîte of about 40 m², and garage-workshops of nearly 220 m². After taking a large wooded driveway and walking along the canal where ducks and water hens frolic, the residence reveals itself in front of a vast grassy parterre, surrounded by large trees. The main building is made of granite and covered with a slate roof with hips. It consists of a central body raised over two levels, with window frames made of cut stone, flanked by two towers topped with pavilion roofs. Adjacent to the main residence, a long house from the 19th century and its wooden extensions house the independent apartment and the garage-workshop. At a right angle, a granite outbuilding with a slate roof houses the gîte and its garage. At the back of the manor, the park extends, featuring a golf practice area and terraces located by the pond, which is itself surrounded by weeping willows and white poplars.This description has been automatically translated from French.

On the edge of the capital, in the quiet of Gentilly, a light and spacious house of 455 m² with terrace and garden . The immaculate façade of the house is punctuated here and there by climbing plants and touches of ultramarine blue: from the railings to the gate and the small, discreet earthenware friezes. Entirely surrounded by walls and lush vegetation, the property is completely hidden from prying eyes and without a vis-à-vis. In all, the house has five floors and 455 m² of living space. The secure gate gives access to the garage on one side, and on the other to the plant-rich and slab-paved path that leads directly to the 76.50 m² lawned garden. The tour of the house begins on the garden floor, where a flight of stairs leads to the high glass-clad blue entrance door. This level, completely independent from the rest of the house, is built around a 25 m² studio with parquet floor, kitchen, shower room and guest toilet. The entire space is lit by a large window reminiscent of old school buildings. From there, a few steps lead to the ground floor and a large kitchen of almost 80 m². Fully equipped, it offers plenty of storage space and a dining area for six people. The kitchen adjoins the open-plan, long dining room, which is large enough to seat at least eight guests. With its large windows, dark parquet flooring and flat white and grey paintwork, this room has a resolutely contemporary look. In one corner, a wood and metal quarter turn staircase leads to the upper level, which features a huge 77 m² living room with light parquet flooring and a modern fireplace. It opens onto a conservatory with glass roofs, which provide plenty of light throughout the day and all year round. To one side, a double French window opens onto the 13m² wooden terrace, large enough to accommodate deckchairs for a relaxing moment. At the back of the room, a white wooden staircase leads up to the second floor. This level consists of the master bedroom of 16 m² with a 14 m² sports room and a bathroom. Further on, the office could easily be converted into an extra bedroom or a walk-in wardrobe. The top floor of the house, under the roof, includes two bedrooms of 16 and 17m² respectively with parquet floors and a shower room. They are illuminated by roof windows and skylights. The basement features a spacious garage, a laundry room, a closet and a wine cellar.

In Orne, near Argentan, a Gothic-style residence with contemporary comfort. Facing the Notre-Dame church, the property borders a quiet, winding street in the town center. Accessible directly from the street, the house is discreetly embedded in the old fabric of the village. Three volumes stand out: in the center, the main building, large and regular, is raised two stories high with converted attics, featuring a typical 18th-century facade on the street, punctuated with light blue window frames and shutters. At the back, a sharp-edged tower houses one of the two spiral staircases, remnants of the original Gothic structure. From this period, there are also ornamental brackets, mullions, and crossbeams that adorn some window openings, especially on the garden side. To the north, a lower wing develops over two levels. To the south, angled along the street, a single-story wing ends with a pavilion. The whole structure, built of small white limestone masonry, is topped with flat tiled roofs. Recently renovated, the residence offers contemporary comfort, still retaining many authentic elements: spiral staircases, floorboards, exposed beam ceilings, fireplaces, and trumeaus, wooden joinery with small panes and old doors. In the southern wing, there are two bedrooms, a playroom, a kitchen, a shower room, and two toilets. The northern wing features a garage and technical spaces on the ground floor. The upper floor, accessible from the third bedroom of the main house, includes a bathroom, a bedroom, and an attic. A garden extends the dwelling, in a vast and long wooded plot that stretches west between two meanders of the Udon and the Orne. A first shelter, close to the house and of similar design, adds to the residence around a terrace. A second, smaller brick shelter serves as a garden shed. A gate provides access to the southern part of the plot. An old greenhouse is located to the north.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A manor with holiday cottages, reception rooms, all fully renovated, in landscaped grounds, 15 minutes from Blois, in the middle of the countryside. This vast complex of buildings, set in an enclosed park covering 8 hectares, has recently undergone a complete and high-quality restoration. The Renaissance manor, which is dominated by its staircase tower, has retained its original character. Set perpendicularly, there is a long series of outbuildings housing three holiday cottages. A barn has been converted into a reception room, as has a nearby modern, glazed greenhouse with a roof. Two other holiday cottages complete the considerable accommodation capacity of this property. The swimming pool to the rear is set in a fenced in area. Slightly further away, exhibition spaces have been created in glazed metal modules. They form a modern cloister, which could easily be repurposed, particularly for receptions. The grounds are partially enclosed behind high walls and towers, of which the walls are listed as a historical monument. The wooded grounds include shaded trails.

An old stone house and shop nestled in one of France’s most beautiful villages with a view of a rocky cirque. This fine dwelling is tucked away among the round and square towers that grace the village’s many country houses, which also feature quaint dovecotes – some genuine, others false. The house is inconspicuous, its architecture unpretentious. Its shape softens the angular forms of the surrounding medieval structures and the sturdy remains of the fortified old town. The building was probably made in the fifteenth or sixteenth century as a modest home. It captures much of this castle village’s unique history. Its simplicity makes it stands out from Autoire’s other houses. Unlike other dwellings in the village, this property does not feature towers, dovecotes, mullioned windows, half-timbering and corbels. Instead, it features straight lines and the stout design of the old block-like houses with upper floors that you find along the Dordogne valley. There are two entrance doors leading into the building. One is on the west side. You enter it at the garden level of the dwelling, at the end of a small garden with a terrace that enjoys a splendid corner spot with a clear, breathtaking view of the nearby limestone cliffs of Autoire’s spectacular cirque. The other one is on the north side. You enter it via a courtyard – a former threshing area – at the ground level. This expanse takes you to a large entrance into two shops next to each other, in front of which chairs and tables are placed for customers. At the back of the courtyard stands a fine modern extension of timber boards that runs along part of the facade made of Quercy stone, where a semibasement with a workshop, boiler room and storage space lies.
