House with garden and terraceGranges-Aumontzey (88) Price : $1,142,500 ($3,808 / m²)
The garden of Berchigranges is for sale: an exceptional landscaped estate with three buildings.
What is currently offered for sale at Berchigranges goes far beyond the scope of a traditional property. It is a rare and cohesive ensemble, bringing together a renowned author's garden among the most beautiful in France, three unique buildings perfectly integrated, and a unique potential for a residential, tourist, or cultural project.
Spread over 1.2 hectares of sculpted garden, 10 km from the Gérardmer ski resort, the Berchigranges estate is a living work shaped over more than thirty years. Here, real estate fades in favor of the landscape.
This place is aimed at buyers seeking meaning as much as place: collectors of gardens, enthusiasts of author's places, holders of tourist or cultural projects, families wishing to embed their lives in a living heritage, or investors sensitive to destinations with a strong identity.
Surrounding this emblematic landscape work is an exploitable built complex, including:
- a main house, the Cottage Bleu, an author residence with expressive architecture,
- an independent charming gîte, Plantes et Plumes, dedicated to premium seasonal rentals,
- a stone welcome pavilion, topped with a green roof, offering spaces with commercial or event potential.
Together, they form a property open to multiple uses: main or secondary residence, place of transmission, confidential destination, hybrid project mixing art, nature, and hospitality.
An author’s garden sculpted in the mountain
Situated at an altitude of 650 m, on an old granite quarry fully reclaimed, the Berchigranges garden develops a unique landscape writing, often described as a contemporary fairy tale garden. The relief has been literally hand-modeled: tons of rocks moved, soil added, reconfiguration of water flows, construction of walls, walkways, and successive levels.
The garden is discovered in sequences, in a succession of landscape chambers. Clearings, rock gardens, water mirrors, narrow passages, and sudden openings compose a fluid and immersive dramaturgy of the path. The visitor is guided by a subtle play of perspectives, plant textures, and changing lights. Each season renews the reading of the place.
The botanical signature of Berchigranges explores an acclimatization of cool climate plants, adapted to harsh winters. 850 varieties of daffodils (national collection) find ideal conditions in spring. Summer settles in with a profusion of hydrangeas, large perennials, and grasses, before autumn sets the entire garden ablaze in a textured and nuanced palette. The garden naturalizes itself, adapting to the places.
This author approach, led by a duo of creators – a land sculptor and a plant colorist – has earned the Berchigranges garden numerous national and international distinctions, including the title of Garden of the Year, as well as recognition in specialized press.
The Cottage Bleu Main House
The main house of the estate, the Cottage Bleu, is an author residence made of wood, developing around 190 m² on the ground. Its architecture follows the natural slope of the land, unfolding in successive volumes and levels.
The living spaces are organized around an open kitchen, several lounges, a library, and an office. The openings frame the garden like living paintings. The house has seven rooms, including three to four bedrooms, two bathrooms, storage spaces, and a closed loggia facing the garden.
The gîte Plantes et Plumes, Charming Rental
Set back, the gîte Plantes et Plumes develops around 110 m² on the ground. Completely renovated in 2022, it is operated as a furnished tourist rental and sold fully furnished and decorated in a bold Berchi-Arty aesthetic.
The equipped kitchen opens onto a large living room with extensive glazing leading to a suspended teak terrace of about 30 m², a true belvedere over the garden. Upstairs, a large bedroom, a library that can serve as a second bedroom, a mezzanine with extra sleeping space, and a bathroom create a warm and immersive space.
The welcome pavilion
At the entrance of the property, a building of about 85 m² on the ground, with exposed stone and topped with a green roof, accommodates the reception area, shop, and practical annexes.
Individual sanitation by lagoon system. Mixed heating: wood and electricity. Energy performance rating: E.
