A renovated 18th-century house with a walled garden, nestled in the historical town of Sens, Burgundy. The dwelling was built at the end of the 18th century. The bailiff of Sens ordered construction of the edifice to house his family. Later, in around 1850, the building became the head administrative office for the local area. The current owners, members of a local family, have renovated the house entirely. The property turns its back on the small street on which it stands. One of its tall elevations with a cornice faces the road. This elevation is punctuated with brickwork, which forms the window surrounds and a stringcourse. This brickwork adds colour to the plain rendered wall. An elegant stone doorway with a segmental arch surrounds the entrance gate. The facade faces the garden. Its stringcourses and the surrounds around its evenly spaced windows are also made of brick. A tall wooden double gate leads into a covered entrance area. A huge glass wall forms the far end of this covered space and offers a delightful view of the garden and the majestic trees that dot it. A few steps lead up to French windows that form an entrance. This flight of steps is aligned with the edifice’s sandstone base course. The dwelling offers a floor area of around 300m². It has a basement, a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. Two dormers with brickwork window surrounds and triangular pediments stand out on the tiled roof and bring natural light into the second floor. The house is in excellent condition. A tasteful modern touch has been added to its 18th-century decor.

A Napoleonic mansion in tree-dotted grounds nestled in a medieval winegrowing town in Burgundy, two hours from Paris. In 1815, Napoleon Bonaparte returned from his exile on the island of Elba, travelling up to Paris. He stopped off in Burgundy from 17 to 19 March. There he met up with Marshal Ney. His troops bivouacked on the outskirts of this town and on the site of this property. Almost half a century later, in 1854, during the Second French Empire, a family of Parisian magistrates built a town mansion here in a Napoleon III style. This mansion was transformed in 1980 and became a 25-room hotel. Today, each of the 25 hotel rooms here bears the name of a marshal who served under Napoleon I. The old dwelling is made of dressed stone and stands on a large avenue. Its slate mansard roof is punctuated with arched dormers and bull’s-eye windows. The property’s original metal railings still enclose it. Pillars of dressed stone are evenly spaced out along these railings, which stand on a low stone wall. The pedestrian entrance is a metal gate framed between two pillars of dressed stone, each crowned with a cast-iron vase. Beyond this gate, a footpath in the middle of a gravel court leads up to a small flight of stone steps adorned with a pair of Medici vases. Vehicles can enter the property via two other original entrances, which are broader. They are located on both sides of the pedestrian entrance and are framed between brick and stone pillars. A large two-floor caretaker’s house stands beside the outdoor entrance area. Nearby, around 30 cars can be parked in a car park on the property. The mansion’s rear elevation faces the property’s vast enclosed grounds dotted with majestic age-old trees and clusters of flowering plants. There are a few terraces on the grounds and an authentic stone table with old stone benches. This beautiful outdoor space includes a heated swimming pool too. This pool is 10 metres long and 5 metres wide. It is heated with mains gas. Lastly, there is an old greenhouse on the grounds. It is made of wrought iron and needs to be restored.

A 16th and 17th century former mill, surrounded by 6 hectares of meadows, in the Puisaye region, 2 hours from Paris. A double entrance gate opens onto a large lawned area dotted with some ten tall trees, and a gravel parking area. The complex comprises several adjoining buildings facing the main structure, the mill. The mill faces north-south, while the outbuildings face south and west. A pedestrian entrance provides access to the premises, protected by a canopy of local tiles. The mill stands in the middle of the reach. The wheel with a diameter of around 4m abuts the building. A small wooden bridge crosses the river. There is a spring close to the mill, from which blue water gushes into the headrace. The residence overlooks a number of authentic features, including a well built of local Puisaye brick, which can still be used and is between 3 and 6 metres deep. The presence of alluvial groundwater, which is always cool, means that a water-to-water heat pump could be installed. A number of outbuildings, each topped with an old country-style roof, complete the complex: a barn, a traditional oven, an old sheepfold and a large workshop for drying wood. Finally, at the back of the house, there is a vast hangar hidden behind a hedge. A dedicated gate provides access to this hangar for the estate's farm vehicles and also links via the ford over the millstream to the meadows.

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.

In Burgundy, an hour and ten minutes from Paris, an 18th century mansion house. This mansion house stands in the midst of extensive wooded, enclosed parklands in the middle of the town. Spiked, wrought iron gates open into parklands, laid out in a French formal manner and bordered by old walls, pleasantly covered with wisteria and vines. In front of the residence is a parterre planted with old roses. Various species of tall trees, over a hundred years old, set the tone. Behind the building is a small, medieval vegetable garden, planted with different herbs. Historical background This mansion house was built in 1780 as part of the major urban planning works, including the construction of the town hall and the development of the banks of the river Yonne, that took place in the town in the 18th century. A middle-class home, it stands but a few metres from the political and military decision-making centres and accommodated such illustrious characters as Prince Ferdinand-Philippe, Duke of Orléans, oldest son of King Louis-Philippe. A private ball was held in his honour in the mansion house’s staterooms. This historic property was then lived in by Fernand-Schneider, a great military character, one of whose sons married one of the daughters of Jacques-Chaband-Delmas. The Schneider family remained here until 2010.

A country house in lush grounds in France’s Yonne department in Burgundy, two hours from Paris.

There are two stone wells beside the dwelling and old outdoor stairs climb up on one side of the building. Extensive tree-dotted grounds lie behind the house. Open-air meals can be enjoyed on a broad terrace. This terrace is tiled and it adjoins the house’s rear face. Old stone benches stand here and there and troughs that have been turned into planters embellish the garden. Trees of several species offer welcome shade in the summer. An above-ground swimming pool adorned with old stones blends into the scenery. A pavilion stands opposite the house. Flowerbeds embellish this rural backdrop and fill it with their fragrance.

An automated metal gate opens onto a continuous stretch of lawned parklands that covers approx. 5,000 m². Set at right angles to each other, the old barn and the traditional house are surrounded by a terrace. The dovecote is slightly set back.
