A 16TH-CENTURY MANOR HOUSE IN BURGUNDY In Provency, in the Yonne department, La Motte des Ouches is laid out along a surprisingly precise axis. From the entrance gate, the eye is drawn to a library situated beneath 16th-century stone arcades, passes through the gardens, and then rests, beyond them, on the dovecote. This perspective reveals the layout of the property, where the main house, farm buildings, and outdoor spaces once formed a single cohesive whole. First mentioned in 1554, the manor has evolved over the centuries while retaining the spirit of its various eras. Stone, beams, terracotta floor tiles, irregular openings, and thick walls still define its character. Surrounding the house are a gravel courtyard, a mature orchard, landscaped gardens, a barn, and old stables that extend the home's presence. A HOUSE BUILT IN LAYERS The 250 m² of living space is divided among eight main rooms, including four bedrooms. The floor plan retains the layout of an old house, with rooms flowing into one another and spaces of varying proportions. The reception room, dining room, and library form the heart of the house. Stone, wood, terracotta tiles, and historic plasterwork lend the interiors their character. The 16th-century arcades are among the manor's most remarkable features. They create visual connections between the courtyard, the rooms, and the garden, while the stone spiral staircase evokes the building's age. The current owner, a California-based architect, acquired La Motte des Ouches in 2023 and undertook several renovation projects. The master bedroom and its bathroom were renovated, the roof was replaced, the electrical system was upgraded, and the bedrooms were equipped with air conditioning. These improvements enhanced the home's comfort while preserving its historic materials, spacious rooms, and elements inherited from its various eras. The contemporary features thus blend seamlessly with the existing structure. ALONG THE AXIS OF THE DOVECOTE Outside, the 4,700 m² of land includes a gravel courtyard, a landscaped garden, an orchard, and the former outbuildings. Set apart from the main structure, the swimming pool adds a more contemporary touch while preserving the character of the manor and its surroundings. From the house, the views open up to the various features of the property. In particular, a central axis runs through the entire property from the gate to the dovecote, creating continuity between the buildings and the outdoor spaces. The outbuildings include a stone barn, former stables, a wine cellar, a summer kitchen, and the dovecote. These various structures can retain their current use or be repurposed for new projects: a workshop, reception area, separate guest rooms, a workspace, or a space dedicated to a collection. They are an integral part of the property and offer numerous possibilities for renovation. A BURGUNDY LOCATION La Motte des Ouches is located in Provency, in the Yonne department, in the heart of Burgundy, where historic rural estates often combine a main house, farm buildings, a garden, and land behind a single gate. The manor is fully in keeping with this landscape. Its stone walls, dovecote, old stables, and compact layout are inseparable from the land on which it was built. However, the architect-owner's vision offers a fresh perspective on this heritage. The house remains deeply Burgundian, while the restoration departs from the expected repertoire of the French country house. This approach is reflected in the property's overall balance: a historic residence on a domestic scale, outbuildings large enough to envision new uses, and generous grounds, always designed with everyday life in mind. THE ADVISOR'S PERSPECTIVE I particularly appreciate the way the architect's vision has transformed this house. His intervention has allowed it to adapt to a more contemporary way of life, while preserving its materials, proportions, and traces of its various eras. Comfort has been seamlessly integrated into the existing structure, without overshadowing the site's history. The outbuildings and remaining spaces now offer the same freedom: the freedom to imagine new uses and, in turn, to continue the transformation of La Motte des Ouches. Alexis Mouchet

A country manor with six hectares of grounds, transformed into tourist accommodation with gîtes, beside the beautiful Morvan regional nature park in Burgundy. The property used to be one of the four fiefs that were part of the Coutarnoux seigneury. It is now the last remaining representative of this former seigneury. Today’s buildings were probably built upon a medieval site. They are the last reflection of what a local nobleman built in 1775. The estate looks down over a wooded valley, around which lush hills, pasture and forests stretch as far as the eye can see. The bucolic atmosphere that reigns here is completely calm, recalling the name of the river that edges the property: the River Serein, ‘serein’ meaning ‘serene’ in French. You reach the property via a lane that climbs up a hill. There are several driveways. Two of them lead into the grand courtyard from the north and south sides. The main house and the gîtes stand around this court. The third driveway, marked with signposts, takes the clients straight to the car park.

CHARACTERFUL HOME IN MERRY-SUR-YONNE At the foot of the Saussois rock, this characterful home in Merry-sur-Yonne is nestled in a landscape of unspoiled beauty. Restored with care, it blends the soul of a 17th-century residence with a contemporary and welcoming atmosphere. The stone facades, exposed beams, and warm, inviting spaces reflect a simple and authentic way of life. The garden, bordered by a hedge of 170 truffle trees, promises a rare connection between the land and nature. Eight bedrooms, including five suites, and a spacious kitchen make this a place perfect for both socializing and contemplation. THE SPIRIT OF A LIVING HOME Behind its ancient walls, the house unfolds spaces that are both spacious and intimate. The reception areas, such as the dining room or the small upstairs lounge, bathed in light, offer an atmosphere of serenity. The kitchen, open to the dining room, is functional and exudes rustic charm, bringing guests together around a large wooden table. The bedrooms, spread over two levels, each have their own character: exposed beams, vaulted ceilings, and antique terracotta tiles. Five suites with en-suite bathrooms offer comfort and privacy, where large mirrors framed in dark wood contrast with the lightness of the stone and play with natural light. The whole property presents the potential for a hospitality or tourist accommodation project. The finishes reflect meticulous attention to detail: Burgundy stone, solid wood, and wrought ironwork, where every detail strikes the perfect balance between authenticity and modernity. BETWEEN STONE AND TRUFFLE TREES The property, spanning over 8,000 m², stretches behind the house across gentle slopes. The main terrace, facing south, invites al fresco lunches, while a swimming pool, a wooded area, and a truffle grove of 175 trees create a vibrant and sensory landscape. The garden is a natural extension of the house. An outbuilding, a workshop, and a convertible attic offer rare potential for expansion. The entire property exudes freedom and simplicity, with the Saussois cliffs, the 12th-century church steeple, and the murmur of the nearby canal as a backdrop. AN EXCEPTIONAL LOCATION IN THE HEART OF BURGUNDY Merry-sur-Yonne, a charming village in the Yonne Valley, is situated at the crossroads of Burgundy's great landscapes: Vézelay and its UNESCO-listed basilica, the vineyards of Chablis and Irancy, the forests of the Morvan, and the paths of the Nivernais Canal and the Way of St. James. The house is a 2.5-hour drive from Paris, near Auxerre and Avallon, accessible via the A6 or by train (Cravant?Bazarnes station). This region offers a rare living environment: tranquility, nature, and heritage blend harmoniously here. On the route to Compostela and Vézelay, just minutes from the Saussois region and the Nivernais Canal, it embodies the ideal guesthouse: elegant, authentic, and steeped in history. AGENCY REVIEW This property embodies the very essence of Burgundy: the beauty of its setting, the nobility of its stonework, and the promise of a life in harmony with nature. It will appeal to families seeking a countryside retreat as much as to those with tourism projects in mind: a vacation rental, bed-and-breakfast, artists' retreat, or event venue.

Exclusively with Sotheby's. Near Vézelay, a magnificent historic property comprising an elegant manor house dating from the 16th and 17th centuries, flanked by watchtowers, at the heart of a peaceful village. Full of charm, it embodies the discreet character of the rural manor houses of the late Renaissance. Set within a walled park of one hectare, remarkably landscaped, the main residence offers a surface area of 500 m² spread over three levels and was the subject of a careful restoration in 2002. On the ground floor unfold a vast reception lounge featuring a monumental fireplace, an elegant dining room, a library, a study, as well as a fully equipped independent kitchen. All of these rooms open onto the beautiful park, with its centuries-old trees and the statues that adorn the grounds. The first floor, for its part, accommodates six lovely bedrooms, five bathrooms and a linen room, to which is added a very comfortable dormitory, also fitted out as a leisure room. The property further includes an independent house of 100 m² over two levels, entirely restored in 2024, as well as a fine barn of 420 m², of which 75 m² of living space remain to be renovated.

Finally, the property enjoys a privileged location, combining tranquillity and accessibility: a railway station lies nearby, with a direct connection to Paris-Bercy, and access to the A6 motorway is reached in just 10 minutes. This is a splendid family property, which can also perfectly suit a guesthouse project, notably thanks to its setting within the Grand Vézelay area.

Two houses in the heart of Morvan Second home in Saint-Martin-du-Puy In a small hamlet overlooking the valley, this second home near Paris comprises two carefully renovated country houses. The old stonework, exposed beams, warm interiors, and large windows create an authentic setting, surrounded by greenery and light. The south-facing terraces extend the living areas towards a peaceful landscape, while the heated swimming pool and large wooded grounds invite you to enjoy a gentle lifestyle in tune with the seasons. Whether as a retreat or a family home, this property offers the opportunity to bring together family and friends, or to imagine a hospitality business in the spirit of the Morvan. Here, nature surrounds every moment, in an atmosphere of deep calm and refined simplicity. Two houses, one spirit of tranquility The two dwellings, separated by an old barn, have been renovated to preserve the character of the 19th-century buildings. Exposed stonework, terracotta tiles, beams, and custom woodwork: everywhere, authenticity is combined with contemporary comfort. The main house is organized around a large living room that opens onto the garden. The stove warms up winter evenings and the large French windows let in the morning light. The separate kitchen, furnished with handcrafted furniture, retains the atmosphere of a family home, both convivial and functional. The bedrooms, simple and peaceful, evoke a simple and inspired life. Several suites with bathrooms allow guests or relatives to stay in complete independence. The second house follows the same codes: warmth, space, light, the perfect place to entertain, for a workshop or for a rental activity already underway. A natural setting with a swimming pool and clearings The grounds, covering almost three hectares, alternate between open spaces, gentle meadows, and groves. Stone terraces follow one another, offering plenty of places to read, have lunch, or watch the sunset. The discreetly integrated outdoor swimming pool adds a touch of summer lightness. The vegetable garden, mature trees, dirt paths, and views of the surrounding nature invite you to enjoy outdoor living. The central barn, currently used for storage, could become a link between the two houses, a reception room, an artist's studio, a games room or additional guest accommodation. The convertible attic space offers further possibilities for other volumes and uses. The Morvan as a backdrop Located in a dominant position, in an isolated but inhabited environment, the hamlet offers a rare quality of life: calm, greenery, and unobstructed views of the forest and countryside. Just a few minutes away, the villages of the Morvan reveal their shops, markets, and trails. Avallon and Corbigny are within easy reach; Paris and Lyon are accessible in 2.5 hours. The lakes, forests, hiking trails, and nature park create a lively and authentic area, ideal for a quiet country home, a family retreat, or a nature-oriented tourist activity. Agency opinion This rare property, centered around a barn, offers exceptional potential: two renovated houses, a swimming pool, extensive grounds, and a preserved natural environment. It is an ideal property for a family wishing to share a vacation spot, or for a couple looking for a second home near Paris. The possibility of acquiring the third house in the hamlet would allow it to become the centerpiece: a unique project combining a nature retreat, conviviality, and tourism potential.
