Property with pool and garden Migennes (89)

Ref.4410-1 : Property with a private airstrip 145 km from Paris in Burgundy-Franche-Comté Situated in the Burgundy Franche Comté region of the Yonne département, on the borders of the small farming areas of the Pays d'Othe and the Vallée near to Champagne Crayeuse, this exceptional and unique chalet with its generous open spaces enjoys a privileged setting in 185 acres (76 hectares) of enclosed parkland, free from any nuisance. Although sheltered from the hustle and bustle of urban life, the village is only a few kilometres away and offers all the main shops and services you need (bakery, grocery shop, nursery school, etc.). A slightly larger town with a SNCF railway station is 10 kilometres away, providing a 2-hour journey to Paris. Access to this exceptional estate is via a charming stone path winding through the vegetation and leading to an elegant automated entrance gate, opening onto a fully enclosed, meticulously maintained park. A majestic, straight driveway then leads you to the heart of the estate, where you'll find a unique chalet. Built around fifteen years ago by craftsmen specialising in the construction of Canadian chalets, this rare property with almost 450 sqm of living space was designed using local woods, carefully selected just a few kilometres from the site, giving it authenticity and nobility. The north-facing entrance sets the tone. To the west, two spacious garages with automatic doors make daily life easier. To the east, a large utility room provides a functional space. A refined hallway leads to a superb master suite with bathroom fitted with a whirlpool bath and custom-made dressing room. On the south side, the living room impresses with its spaciousness: almost 200 m² bathed in light, enhanced by an imposing stone fireplace and a top-of-the-range open-plan kitchen, complemented by a utility room with direct access to the cellar. Upstairs, accessed via an elegant, custom-designed wrought-iron staircase, a mezzanine overlooks the living space and leads to two additional bedrooms, each with its own shower room and toilet. To the south, just a few hundred metres from the chalet, is an old farmhouse that has been converted into a home. Formerly used as a riding school and stables, it now offers spacious living accommodation with : on the ground floor: a pleasant lounge with an impressive fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, a vast reception room (which can accommodate up to 150 people), a bar area, toilets and various utility and storage rooms. Upstairs: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms with bidet and shower. A little way down from this renovated farmhouse, a former horse stable has been converted into a small dwelling with a living room/kitchen and bathroom/wc. In the immediate vicinity of this renovated farmhouse, there is a sheet metal shed on wooden posts that can accommodate more than 10 vehicles. In the grounds, to the north of the chalet, there is an agricultural shed made of sheet metal on wooden posts and a metal structure to house the property's maintenance equipment. The grounds are harmoniously divided into two distinct parts: the enclosed park and the aeronautical area, offering both an unspoilt natural setting and unique facilities. The park, entirely enclosed by a 2-metre-high fence buried 50 cm deep - and put in place before 1993 - extends over some 187 acres (76 hectares). A veritable nature sanctuary, it comprises : An approved 7-kilometre off-road circuit, which hosted the prestigious prologue to one of the Paris-Dakar rallies. A historic event attended by over 30,000 spectators and broadcast live on national television for over two hours. A great legacy for motor sport enthusiasts ; Arable land, offering great opportunities for farming or eco-responsible projects ; Meadows and woods rich in biodiversity, ideal for walks, observation or hunting ; An impressive English aviary, over 8 metres high. The wildlife here is particularly rich: many deer roam freely on the estate, some sporting superb antlers of over 16 horns. There are also roe deer, adding to the wild and exclusive character of the site. This exceptional estate offers a unique living environment, combining prestige, freedom and passion. Whether you want to set up a private residence, a holiday resort, a hunting estate, a farm or a luxury events complex, there are plenty of possibilities for those who want to combine lifestyle, nature and adventure.

House Vézelay (89)

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.

Manor Saint-Sauveur-en-Puisaye (89)

In Burgundy, in the land of Colette, 2 hours from Paris, a Belle Époque seaside villa on just over 1 hectare. Along the marked paths, hedgerows appear, an open landscape animated by many paths lined with shrubs, ponds, forests, and small hills. A varied and hilly countryside, where small peaceful roads wind through. A double wrought iron gate marks the entrance to the park, from where direct access from the road leads to a curved driveway that unfolds in a loop in front of the house, placed in the center, then extends towards the outbuilding at the back; a second independent access serves a parking area that can accommodate up to ten cars. The forest borders the property. An old well remains, which could be reused. The villa is said to have been built during the Roaring Twenties at the initiative of a wealthy Mexican for a woman close to him. Local tradition reports that he arrived by chance at the station of Saint-Sauveur-en-Puisaye before acquiring the land. The main entrance is distinguished by its ancient columns supporting a niche, a pear-balance balustrade, and a door topped by a segmented glass semicircular transom. Oriented to the southwest, built on a basement and raised to three levels, the building adopts an asymmetrical composition. Its main volume, coated in a light shade, is topped with a two-sided slate roof, punctuated by dormer windows. A square tower, slightly out of alignment, sits at one corner and features a covered belvedere. The facade is rhythmized by large arched windows on the ground floor, extended by a continuous balcony on the upper level, protected by an elaborately wrought metal railing. On the first floor, two paired windows open onto small projecting balconies.

House Michery (89)

Two houses and a garden that an artist has turned into an original haven, nestled in France’s Yonne department, 100 kilometres from Paris. The property’s current owner, an artist who produces paintings, turned this ordinary two-floor farmhouse into a unique haven. The artist sought harmony here, using their own creativity and drawing inspiration from the aesthetic qualities of fine materials and from local craftsmanship. The result is today’s highly original property. Close attention has been paid to making it unique yet coherent. The property is enclosed behind walls on a quiet street. It enjoys absolute privacy and calm. From outside, it does not suggest the originality that it hides. A large double-leaf metal gate framed between two brick pillars leads straight into a grassy garden dotted with various water features. To the left, on the south side, there is a guesthouse with a central tower capped with a pyramidal roof that is crowned with a finial. To the right, on the north side, there is the main dwelling. It is an elongated building that faces south-east. A wing protrudes at a right angle to the main section at its west end. Just behind this wing there is a bakehouse. In front of the main dwelling there is an ornamental pond. An arched bridge of old flat tiles crosses it. The bridge is edged with a metal balustrade adorned with volutes at the end. Flat Burgundy tiles are the only material common to all the buildings on the property. Beyond the ornamental pond, an archway beneath a circular opening takes you to the other side of a decorative wall of round tiles. The property’s second section lies there. A vast space extends in this second section. Its south-west corner is marked by a retreat with a slate roof and stained glass of different colours. Alongside this retreat, there is a terrace covered by a canopy of glass and metal.

Property Saint-Sauveur-en-Puisaye (89)

A stately dwelling and its enclosed garden in the middle of a village, recognised as a “Town of Character”, two hours from Paris, nestled within the Puisaye countryside. In a village with picturesque lanes lined with stately homes, one in particular stands out thanks to its many entrances: a painted ornate metal door opens on to the property’s garden, a wooden door topped with a fanlight is used as the dwelling’s front door, a restored double-leaf gate, near the outbuildings, provides vehicle access, while a final door is located in the back of the garden, surrounded by vegetation. In addition, a lovely flagstone patio skirts the dwelling on one side and, extending on from here, the grounds feature a stone bench, ideal for relaxing under the shade of the birches, as well as an ancient greenhouse, whereas a well surrounded by grass could be repurposed and an ancient drinking trough next to the woodshed provides an additional touch of charm to the premises. Lastly, a small path leads to a gravel drive, reserved for vehicle parking, located next to the outbuildings with their red shutters, the colour of which is identical to that of the double-leaf gate, while, sheltered from view, a small vegetable garden is planted with raspberry bushes as well as other fruits and vegetables.

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.

Farmhouse Noyers (89)

A charming dwelling made up of two separate houses connected via a conservatory, with barns and a tree-filled garden, in the middle of a village within the Yonne department. Set back from a quiet street, the property is mostly hidden from view except for the outbuilding’s gable end, which gives on to the street. Accessible via two gates, one pedestrian, the other for vehicles, the property also includes, on its western end, two adjacent barns each with their own separate street access: a single door for the first and a garage door for the second, which was created expressly for this purpose. Once past the gate, the garden, planted with many trees and flowers, is landscaped into several different areas, while the two charming farm buildings feature pointed rubble stone exteriors, characteristic of the region as well as small Burgundy flat tile gable roofs. As for the outbuilding it is topped with interlocking tiles, while a conservatory, subtly integrated and designed, connects the two dwellings and provides verdant views of the garden on either side.

House Avallon (89)

A village house with a barn and land, awaiting a new lease of life, in the heart of Burgundy, between Avallon and Semur-en-Auxois. In the heart of the peaceful hamlet in which it is located, the house can be reached via the passing street, from which it is separated by a small wall. To the left, there is a large lawned area and a passage alongside the house leads to the rear, where there is a barn and the remainder of the land, overlooking the wooded countryside of the Morvan regional natural park. This square, three-storey house with three vertical rows of openings, was built in the 20th century in 19th-century style. The house is made of stone covered with ochre rendering and its façade overlooking the street faces to the southeast. It has rectangular windows set symmetrically around the entrance door made of solid wood, tempered glass and scroll-shaped wrought-iron. The window and door frames as well as the quoins are made of ashlar. The hipped, slate roof is underlined by a discrete moulded cornice. The house has already undergone a range of renovation works. On the opposite side, there is a modest sized veranda adjoining the façade, standing next to a small construction with more sober façades of rendered stone and a gabled roof made of interlocking tiles. The interior of this annex still awaits renovation.

House Toucy (89)

An elegant manor house, surrounded by tree-filled grounds and its many flowering plants, on the outskirts of a Burgundy village, two hours from Paris. Residential and sprawling, the village is scattered with stately homes concealed behind thick vegetation, while the property is accessible via an impressive and ornate wrought-iron double gate, supported by two large stone pillars and flanked on either side by large lime trees, which opens on to an interior gravel courtyard, cadenced by a large swath of lawn. Here, a staircase with wide steps ascends towards a second courtyard, traversed by a central stone path and separated from the surrounding verdant foliage by a low stone wall, which is, in turn, topped with wooden fencing. Dating from the middle of the 19th century, the dwelling, overlooking its grounds, has been inhabited by the same family since 1931: three generations of foresters, who then became operators of a sawmill followed by a fuel business. With two storeys, the white stone façade, facing south, is cadenced by large windows, safeguarded by solid or louvred wooden shutters, as well as matching window/door surrounds, lintels and quoins. As for the ground floor, it stands out thanks to its glazed front door, topped with an elegant glass awning, recently restored, while the house’s slate hipped roof is crowned with a dormer window. Extending on from the dwelling to the west, an ancient conservatory is accessible via a gate that makes it possible to close off the space or, inversely, open it up towards the grounds, whereas, facing the dwelling, is a working antique sundial flanked by original stone benches on either end of the courtyard. Following on from here, is a large, immaculate space – with a variety of multi-century trees – containing several verdant niches landscaped with different ambiances, a long avenue of lime trees creating a forested canopy alongside the ruins of an ancient fireplace, as well as small recessed openings providing access to the property’s other wooded areas. With another entrance located behind the house and near a pond, a cobblestone path to the east leads to the wine cellar, while, higher up, a patio is bordered by a small dry stone wall. Last, but not least, the grounds also contain two pieces of land zoned for construction: one towards the bottom of the property and the second behind the house, not far from the property’s third entrance.
