Berchigranges / Hautes-Vosges - 10 km from Gérardmer Grand EST The Berchigranges garden is for sale: an exceptional landscaped estate with three buildings. In Berchigranges, what is now offered for sale far exceeds the framework of a classic property. It is a rare and coherent set, bringing together a recognized author's garden among the most beautiful in France, three unique buildings perfectly integrated, and a unique potential for residential, tourist, or cultural projects. Spread over 1.4 hectares of sculpted garden, 10 km from the Gérardmer resort, the Berchigranges estate is a living work shaped over more than thirty years. Here, real estate fades into the landscape. The place is aimed at buyers in search of meaning as much as place: garden collectors, lovers of author places, holders of tourist or cultural projects, families wishing to integrate their lives into a living heritage, or investors sensitive to destinations with a strong identity. Surrounding this emblematic landscaped work is an exploitable built complex, including: - a main house, the Cottage Bleu, an author's residence with expressive architecture, - an independent charming gîte, Plantes et Plumes, dedicated to premium seasonal rentals, - a reception pavilion in stone, topped with a green roof, offering surfaces with commercial or event potential. The whole forms a property open to multiple uses: primary 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 meters, on a formerly quarried granite site fully reclaimed, the Berchigranges garden develops a singular landscaping style, often described as a contemporary tale garden. The relief has literally been hand-shaped: tons of rocks moved, soils added, water flow reconfigured, and construction of walls, walkways, and successive levels. The garden is discovered in sequences, in a succession of landscaped rooms. Clearings, rock gardens, water mirrors, narrow passages, and sudden openings compose a drama of a fluid and immersive journey. Visitors are guided by a subtle play of perspectives, plant textures, and changing lights. Each season renews the interpretation of the place. The botanical signature of Berchigranges explores an acclimatization of plants from cool climates, suited to harsh winters. 850 varieties of daffodils (national collection) find ideal conditions in spring. Summer brings forth a profusion of hydrangeas, large perennials, and grasses before autumn ignites everything in a textured and nuanced palette. The garden naturalizes, adapting to the place. This author's approach, carried by a duo of creators—land sculptor and 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's residence with a wooden structure, developing approximately 190 m² on the ground. Its architecture follows the natural slope of the terrain, 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.
