A specially designed house with a swimming pool and 3,500m² of grounds, nestled near the town of Montfort-l'Amaury in France’s Yvelines department next to Paris. The property, which covers around 3,500m², lies just outside the village. A lane runs alongside the property and leads to the forest. The plot is located on the edge of this forest. A hedge and a sliding gate hide the house, which is surrounded by a tree-dotted garden. The dwelling is set back from the road by around 20 metres. Just in front of the main door, there is an outdoor entrance area where several vehicles can be parked. A car shelter stands in this space too. The house dates back to 1976. It is built of pale ashlar. Its slate roof was entirely renovated in 2022. A vast terrace of exotic timber extends on the house’s west side. A heated swimming pool sits in this terrace. The pool is eight metres long and four metres wide and is fitted with a counter-current system. The terrace looks down at a sloping lawn. This commanding position underlines the impression of space on the property. And the garden is not at all overlooked, which also underlines the sense of space here.

A carriage ride from Paris, the Château de la Fontaine, an eternal fable. Just 35 kilometers from Paris, where the capital gradually yields to foliage and silence, the Château de la Fontaine in Auffargis emerges as a timeless interlude. Built for himself by the Parisian architect Jean-François Yvert between 1871 and 1875, the estate spans just over 1050 square meters. It stands at the heart of the Haute Vallée de Chevreuse Regional Natural Park, embraced by the Rambouillet Forest, and overlooks the Abbey of Vaux-de-Cernay, a Cistercian jewel nestled in the valley. Architecturally, it echoes the Louis XIII style and the traditional brick and stone châteaux of the Île-de-France. Here, the stone does more than recount history; it whispers it, like the wind stirring through the asphodel leaves. This château is poetry, and more than that, a fable worthy of La Fontaine, where every façade and every perspective invites contemplation and reverie. Its theatrical elegance, expressed through carved woodwork, intimate proportions, and a meticulous attention to detail characteristic of the grand residences of its century, makes this jewel a true family home. A caretakers house and an outbuilding complete the ensemble. Surrounding it are 30 hectares of landscaped gardens and preserved nature, a verdant setting where the seasons unfold like a ballerina crossing the stage in an ethereal movement. Pathways trace meditative walks, clearings create moments of openness, and the entire estate seems suspended between dream and reality. An exceptional renovation, carried out with uncompromising standards, has reinterpreted the château for contemporary living without ever altering its soul. Modern comfort blends in discreetly: a wine cellar, spacious garage, heated indoor swimming pool, gym, billiard room with English bar, orangery, elevator Each a contemporary note inscribed within a perfectly orchestrated heritage composition. Five bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms are currently fitted, with the possibility of creating four additional bedrooms in the outbuilding. This property is an emotion, a rare address where the art of living converses with history, and where luxury expresses itself through grandeur in simplicity. Modest in scale yet radiant in spirit, this château carries within it the nobility of great houses. It invites its future custodian to continue an ancient legend patiently etched in stone, and to engrave their own, framed by the enduring word : family.
