luxury house for sale Châtel-Censoir, France

Just 2 hours from Paris via the A6 motorway and 15 km from the village of Vézelay, this property sits on over 7 hectares of land adorned with ancient trees and surrounded by steep wooded hills guaranteeing its privacy. A residence of both great elegance and subtle discretion, it is composed of two main buildings: the Grande Maison and the Pavillon. A large central square welcomes visitors and leads to the main courtyard, decorated with a small fountain, which separates the two houses. The Grande Maison includes all the main living areas, as well as four magnificent suites housing a total of eight bedrooms, each with a different colour. The most iconic rooms include: - the dining room, with its sideboard for carving hunting trophies, its immense fireplace for roasting them and its banquet table for serving them; - the music room, reflected in the water of the lake, which has retained its majestic piano for private concerts; - the writing room, all in woodwork and boasting a view of the grounds and the waterways; - and the library, situated in the tower and presenting a solid oak mezzanine affording aerial views of the main courtyard. The interior of the Grande Maison honours the great Burgundian architectural and decorative traditions: Burgundy flagstones decorated with cabochons in the reception rooms, cut stone fireplaces, sculpted oak bays, Puisaye pottery and the omnipresent symbol of the scallop shell, testament to pilgrimages to Vezelay and Compostela. Opposite the Grande Maison is the Pavilion, a cosy independent dwelling including a large living room, three bedrooms (including one in a tower), and a south-facing dining terrace. In the immediate vicinity of the main house, you will also find: - an artist's studio that once served as a painting and sculpture workshop (some of the sculptures, such as the Lady of the Lake, are still present in the house); two large stables from which to explore the surrounding hills, which are covered in trees and full of game. Beyond the character of this large residence, one can also hear the trickling of the river and its waterfalls, the main fountain and the Serpentine, which flows over the granite pebbles of its mossy bed. Herons and wild ducks still frequent the house and fish in its fish-filled waterways. The Gouffre has a depth of 3 metres, allowing for refreshing swimming all summer long. The garden has been designed for outdoor living and to take advantage of the magnificent light in each season. The large field is ideal for making bonfires at sunset while savouring the delicious appetizers and wines of the surrounding valleys. Vézelay and its Colline Eternelle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is only a few kilometres away. At Le Moulinot, there are many things that remain to be discovered, but just as many are yet to be invented.

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.

THE BADOVICI GRAY HOUSE, IN VÉZELAY Located in the historic heart of Vézelay, the Badovici Gray House is a discreet and unique retreat. This stone house, a true source of inspiration, was redesigned by Jean Badovici and Eileen Gray. It bears the mark of many artists, notably Le Corbusier, who worked on it in the 1930s. The property is laid out in an unconventional way, in direct harmony with the local landscape. A UNIQUE GETAWAY IN THE HEART OF THE VILLAGE Located in the center of Vézelay, the house is on Rue de l'Argenterie, a street off the beaten path that runs parallel to the main street. You are in the heart of the old village, in its most compact and intimate section. The basilica is less than a 3-minute walk away, while the main square and its restaurants are also within easy reach. Vézelay lives in tune with the seasons, with a lively summer atmosphere: a setting that is ideal for a second home as well as for a peaceful life throughout the year. From the windows and terraces, the view stretches far across the Vézelay vineyards, the terraced gardens, and the surrounding countryside. This hillside offers unobstructed views and soft light, without excessive heat in summer thanks to its sheltered exposure. AN ARCHITECT-DESIGNED HOME ROOTED IN THE HISTORY OF MODERNISM In 1927, Jean Badovici purchased two small adjoining hovels on Rue de l'Argenterie, on the northern slope of the village. He joined them together and transformed them with the help of Eileen Gray. It was here, in Vézelay, that their collaboration took shape and deepened. The reworked openings, the integrated elements, and the office fitted out in the attic bear witness to the expertise they forged together in this village. Le Corbusier, a close friend of Badovici and a regular visitor to the house, wrote in *La Ville Radieuse* (1933): ?Everything is tiny, yet everything is grand. It is a setting on a human scale.' In 1936, Fernand Léger created a painting on the courtyard wall, now preserved at the Zervos Museum in Vézelay. Inspired by this, Le Corbusier in turn created his very first mural on a wall in the living room that same year, traces of which remain visible. This experiment convinced him. Badovici entertained frequently. Poets, artists, and writers frequented the house. Paul Éluard, who took refuge in Vézelay during the war, left behind an autographed poem, still visible in one of the bedrooms. A second poem, by Jean Follain, is also preserved in the house's living room. A SPACE TO MAKE YOUR OWN The property comprises two houses, each approximately 85 m² in size, spread over two levels, connected by a split-level interior courtyard that rises from Rue de l'Argenterie toward the second house on Rue des Écoles. Concrete, stone, and earth make up this intermediate space?both a passageway and a living area?where a flower garden would naturally find its place. The Badovici house features an attic of approximately 15 m², formerly the architect's office, identifiable from the street by the raised roof and its two vertical openings, to be converted as needed. A cellar, much older than the house itself, is ideal for storing wine. The space can be easily adapted to suit your needs without major renovations. AGENCY OPINION This house is ideal for a buyer with an appreciation for architecture and history. Its rarity stems from the convergence of several uncommon criteria: a central location in Vézelay, a documented and tangible history, a clear modernist identity, and real potential for appreciation.

A dead end that keeps its secrets. A house that keeps its own. Nestled in the heart of Clamecy, this 19th-century manor house spans 293 sqm with the quiet elegance of homes that have endured through time without losing their soul. No overlooking windows. No noise. A confidential address twenty meters from shops. Here, everything speaks of authenticity: old floors, century-old fireplaces, generous volumes bathed in light — everything has been preserved intentionally. Not out of nostalgia, but because some materials cannot be reinvented. The period windows, deliberately preserved to maintain the harmony and elegance of the house, have in no way compromised its energy performance — the house has a DPE D rating, simple and honest. Breathing salons — large enough to host, warm enough to stay. From the kitchen to the veranda, from the garden to the terrace — life here unfolds without borders. Hidden from view, an intimate and preserved garden, where nothing hints at it from the street — topiary boxwoods, fruit trees, a pond at the center that has seen children grow, a greenhouse terrace where time willingly stops. Two master suites with bathrooms, each with its own character: one on the ground floor, intimate and quiet; the other facing the sky, with a balcony and roof terrace offering a panoramic view of Mont Sembert and the surrounding forests. Five bedrooms where you can meet without ever feeling cramped — the rare art of living together while preserving everyone's privacy. And then there is the orangery. Workshop? Studio? Creative space? It's up to you to invent. A closed garage for the car, a private parking space in front of the door for guests — in the city center, this is a rare commodity. Everywhere, built-in cupboards. Move in lightly, think big. THE +: Zinc roofs and gutters in excellent condition, including the orangery — the essentials are there, solid and durable. The historic vaulted cellar, just a few steps away, still whispers its centuries of history and awaits its next bottles… For those looking for a unique living space, in Burgundy, two and a half hours from Paris.

Workshop? Perched cottage for an adult? It's up to you to decide. Upstairs, four bedrooms under the attic — each with its personality, its angles, its light. And then there is the barn. Huge. Exposed framework, Burgundy stone, new concrete slab, electricity. Volumes that call for large projects — painting workshop, sculpture studio, rehearsal space, gallery, studio. The walls have seen a lot already. They are ready to see more. The enclosed garden of 1,258 m² slopes gently towards the hills — fruit trees, greenhouse, spaces to be tamed. A playground for the gardener, artist, or dreamer. Ready to move in. No work needed. No compromise on the soul.

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.

Three authentic homes in a haven of nature. Country houses in the heart of the Morvan. On the wooded hills of the Morvan, within a small, unspoiled hamlet, lies a rare gem. Three stone buildings form a harmonious and independent ensemble, designed to accommodate the diverse lifestyles of a single family or multiple projects. In Saint-Martin-du-Puy, this peaceful country house offers a different vision of everyday life, one of rich silences, simple sharing, and a deep connection to the landscape. With its vast wooded grounds, south-facing swimming pool, and carefully renovated spaces, it embodies everything one expects from a second home near Paris: comfort, space, and a chance to disconnect... without losing touch with the rhythm of life. It is a property built to last, to inhabit, to pass on, and to entertain. Three houses, one soul. Behind the golden stone facades, each house seems to tell a different facet of the same story. In the largest house, generous volumes, antique beams, fireplaces, sculpted staircases, and noble materials create a warm and inviting haven. The patina of time is palpable, combined with the efficiency of a smart renovation. A high-end kitchen, discreet home automation, and spacious bedrooms: a restrained elegance designed to last. The two other buildings, more compact but equally refined, extend the spirit of the place with the same coherence. Perfect for welcoming family, friends, or guests, they form a cohesive and comfortable living space, designed for conviviality without sacrificing privacy. A house with a swimming pool in the Morvan region, where every space breathes light and comfort. A vibrant park, designed for sharing. Outside, nature echoes the architecture. A flat, wooded, and structured park unfolds over three hectares of meadow and greenery. It features a vegetable garden, several outbuildings, large stone terraces, and a perfectly integrated, secure heated swimming pool, ready to welcome the warmer months. The living spaces flow seamlessly together, allowing everyone to find their own space between shade and light. This rural estate, easily accessible from Paris, provides a vibrant setting for weekends, holidays, or those planning a life immersed in nature. It's a peaceful country house, both authentic and functional, where simplicity is tempered with high standards. The Morvan as a point of equilibrium. The hamlet of Vesigneux, overlooking the village of Saint-Martin-du-Puy, offers a rare respite. Here, in this corner of the Nièvre region, the Morvan Regional Natural Park unfolds its deep forests, hiking trails, and secluded valleys. Avallon and Corbigny are within easy reach, as are Paris and Lyon, accessible in just a few hours via major highways. This house with a swimming pool in the Morvan is thus situated in a rich and unspoiled region, both secluded and accessible, natural yet vibrant. An ideal environment for those seeking a deep connection to nature, without sacrificing their connection to the world. Agency review: It's rare to find a property so cohesive in its structure and spirit. Three houses, a swimming pool, a park, well-appointed amenities, and well-managed rental potential: this peaceful country house embodies the idea of a place where everyone can live at their own pace. It would suit a family wishing to share the same land or a small-scale hospitality project. A second home near Paris that is both charming, functional, and inspiring. Full details available upon request.

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.

A former priory from the 13th century, listed as a historical monument and nestled in the Morvan regional nature park in Burgundy. Saint-Jean-des-Bonshommes priory was a monastery that was part of the Order of Grandmont. It was built at the start of the 13th century where an antique sanctuary once stood. Anséric VI, Seigneur of Montréal, ordered construction of the edifice. The monastery underwent the French Wars of Religion in the 16th century. And in 1772, when Pope Clement XIV disbanded the Order of Grandmont, it was made available to the diocesan archbishop. Following the French Revolution, the monastery was sold as national property in 1791 and became a family property up to 1846 when it was damaged by a fire that destroyed most of the monastic buildings. The church, however, survived this fire. In 1880, it became a source of stones as building material, rather like an open quarry. Moved by this fate, a learned society acquired the edifice in 1905, requested that it be listed as a historical monument and set about restoring the edifice. The remaining church is characteristic of the architectural principles of the Order of Grandmont. It is the most imposing edifice in this monastic complex. It has a plain elevation without a door, a single nave and a closed chancel, beneath a brick barrel vault that stretches to a half-dome above an apse with three windows. The chapel’s elevations are made of different stones. The lower ones, evenly sized, are neatly carved blocks and the upper ones, raw rubble stones, lie where the vault rises up. The apse is ornamented outside with four elegant built-in columns. The remains of the monastic buildings have been preserved, including the cloister arches, the elegant arcades of the chapterhouse and part of the walls of the pantries and refectory. The church has a roof of barrel ties, with conical tiles for the apse, made in a local tile factory.
