In the Breton hinterland, 30 minutes from the coast, a 19th-century mill and its reception room, set on over 5 hectares of meadows and woods. Built of stone, the mill is located in a wooded valley, alongside a watercourse that organizes its layout. Accessible via a small paved communal road that descends to the valley, access is via a small drivable bridge, equipped with a painted wooden barrier, which is followed by a turning area. An outbuilding appears first, recognizable by its large arched wooden panel door, painted blue, framed with stone, whose entrance is preceded by a flight of steps in patinated terracotta tiles, enhanced by a wall lantern. The main building, raised over two levels under a slate roof with three triangular dormer windows, features stone rubble facades and understated openings. The millrace and the watercourse, still visibly nearby, testify to the original purpose. The surroundings mix lawns, shrubbery beds, and tall-stemmed subjects (oaks, beeches, and sequoias), which open onto meadows and woods. Good-sized parking areas have been developed. Formerly offered for events, the site retains suitable structures — a reception room, professional kitchen, and restrooms — ready to be reused, or to be transformed (living area, indoor pool).This description has been automatically translated from French.

A 19th-century manor house, with a modern extension and landscaped garden, on a plot of more than 2 000 m² in the old town of Bagneux . Four minutes on foot from the main square of the old town of Bagneux, the main residence, part of the municipality's protected built heritage, has stood on a walled plot of more than 2 000 m² since 1843. The floor tiles and parquet flooring, the high ceilings, the mouldings and the views over the large, well-kept garden and the protected landscaped area make this a unique residence. Since the early 2000s, a modern, flat-roofed extension, inspired by the Brutalist style, has been added, creating an aesthetic contrast. On the garden level, on either side of a through corridor, are found the living areas: a double, three-way reception room, with a French window providing access to the garden, and a comfortable dining room, visually linked to the kitchen by a large, custom-made glass wall. All rooms open onto the greenery. In the modern section, two comfortable, bright bedrooms, each with its own shower room and separate toilet, occupy the main level. The basement, semi-underground and lit by basement window wells, contains two large rooms, currently used as offices or libraries. The first floor of the old house, accessed by an oak spiral staircase, has three bedrooms. One of these, measuring around 15 m², leads to a room with a window that has been converted into a spacious wardrobe. The second, which is large (around 17 m²) is used as an office and the third is a small bedroom measuring around 9 m². The bedrooms are next to a bathroom and a separate toilet. A trapdoor in the ceiling provides access, via a retractable staircase, to the vast attic space under the tiled, hip roof, which was renovated and insulated in 2004. Finally, the old house has an underground level that takes up its entire floor area. In addition to a large vaulted cellar, there is a laundry room and a workshop housing the boiler room. The property, surrounded by stone walls lined with a belt of trees and shrubs, can be accessed from two sides, each opening onto a gate. A semi-private driveway running alongside the plot also provides parking space for several vehicles.

A 15th-century manor with reception rooms, 10 minutes from beaches on the Côte de Goëlo coast in northern Brittany. The property is nestled a few hundred metres from the local village in a bucolic backdrop. A solid grey gate of wrought iron leads into the grounds. It is framed between two granite pillars, one of which has an outdoor lamp fixed to it. On either side, a low wall and tall hedges give the property absolute privacy. The manor and its outhouses form a U shape. On the grounds, which cover almost one hectare, several spaces can be distinguished: there is an ornamental, tree-dotted garden embellished with flowers on the west side, a south-facing courtyard, and a car park on the east side. An annexe houses a covered swimming pool that looks out at the ornamental garden. And an events venue with a wooden floor adjoins an outhouse to form a large reception space. You enter the manor from a short driveway that leads from the wrought-iron gate. The edifice dates back to the 15th century, as a door surround upstairs and a spiral staircase indicate. The building has been redesigned several times over its long history. The year ‘1701’ is inscribed in the entrance door’s lintel. The dwelling is long and rectangular in shape. It has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. A gable slate roof crowns the house. The facade is made of pink rubble granite. Ashlar forms the window and door surrounds. There are many small-paned windows. The entrance door stands in a recess, beneath a rectangular window. A dormer with a triangular pediment gives character to the edifice’s west end. There is a secondary door beside a schist sundial that dates back to 1740. A cavity in the facade once formed an alcove for a dog. Opposite, there is a dome-covered well crowned with a granite cross. Pale gravel covers the courtyard. Wisteria grows up the facade.

At the foot of the Vercors, 30 minutes from the Valence TGV station, a thermal spa from 1904 transformed into a family residence and its park. The Beaugaris site has been known since Antiquity, with the "Roman" spring that made it famous. In the early 20th century, Dr. Riory built a thermal establishment around the mineral water spring. A hotel was thus constructed in 1904. Accessible by a blue-painted metal gate at the end of a dead-end road, the property extends over 10 hectares and has two springs as well as four outbuildings. Beyond the old stables of the estate, a second wrought iron gate leads to the other buildings, habitable or not: the vaulted building that houses the spring, then the former hotel turned into a house, a pavilion, and a barn, all three adjacent. The simple facades of the various buildings were built of rubble and dressed stone joints, or in concrete and then plastered; their roofs, with two or four slopes, are made of terracotta or sheet metal. The main house, rectangular in plan, faces south and spans approximately 460 m² of living space, divided into five levels, almost entirely renovated, with a contemporary veranda of about 30 m², potentially habitable attic space, and a ventilated cellar. It includes twelve spacious bedrooms and four bathrooms or shower rooms; an independent apartment, with layout to be finalized, occupies the third floor. The independent pavilion, built near a corner of the house and extending over about 65 m², has been restored and extends onto a terrace. Suitable as a winter apartment, it includes a living room and a bedroom with a bathroom and a kitchen area. Not far away, the barn, approximately 150 m², built behind the main dwelling, houses an old bread oven and could be used for receptions or conferences. Under the terrace of the pavilion, the vaulted building, about 30 m², which covers the thermal spring, could be arranged as a winter lounge. Finally, what originally constituted stables, approximately 100 m², could be converted into a living space, among other possibilities. The estate also includes an old collector basin for thermal water, now converted into a swimming pool of 11 × 5 m with a telescopic shelter and panoramic terrace. The main house, the pavilion, and the basin have been renovated by the current occupants in the last five years.This description has been automatically translated from French.

An18th-century manor house, on a former wine-growing estate of 12 hectares, with wine warehouses, outbuildings, grounds, a pond and woods, 60 kilometres from Tours. A small country road skirts the property’s tall stone walls, followed by its initial outbuildings before reaching its gate, which faces a wide tree-lined lane that extends between fields and farm tracks. At the property’s gate, a stone wall opens onto a wide courtyard, planted in the middle with two impressive Chinese mulberry trees, while, the manor, visible in the background, is flanked by its outbuildings on either side. Dating from the 18th century, the property was originally a wine-growing estate, while the two-storey manor, built in the Directoire style out of local stone, embodies traditional architecture, specific to the region. With an inhabitable floor area of approximately 435 m², the dwelling consists of a long central structure – the main façade of which is cadenced by doors and small-paned windows – flanked on either side by two adjacent lower extensions and topped with a slate roof, which is, in turn, crowned with zinc ornamental décor and finials. As for the back of the house, although different from the front, it still combines the elegance of the dwelling's symmetrical rectilinear windows and shed dormers with, in the middle, a unique triangular pediment, which adds a touch or originality to the whole. In addition, vaulted cellars extend under the entire building, while, to one side, a completely independent five-room caretaker’s cottage abuts a large courtyard, former stables and agricultural storage buildings, which are also accessible from the small country road via a second gate, providing an independent and more inconspicuous entrance. Moreover, the property also includes, on the other side of the front courtyard, another outbuilding, which is currently used as a holiday cottage with a capacity of 6 to 8 people. With a grass-covered, shady interior courtyard, this building has its own private entrance via a separate gate and faces a former wine warehouse, today reconverted into a reception hall with hardwood floors.

A large, elegant and comfortable house and its neighbouring building in need of restoration, in a beautiful dry-stone village in the upper Sèvre valley. The main house, built out of rubble limestone, overlooks, on its garden side, the Sèvre River from all four of its storeys, while its other façades look out on one of the most beautiful villages in the department with its medieval chateau. All the living spaces are located on the ground floor, which includes: a large living room, a small sitting room, a library or office and dining room, all decorated with nailed wide-plank hardwood floors, a variety of different fireplaces and ceilings with exposed beams or delicate stucco patterns, while the kitchen, left in its original state, has an antique square terracotta-tile floor. In the other building, a vast room, called “the chapel”, accessible via the small sitting room, could be used for galas, concerts or theatre performances. The first floor contains four bedrooms, each in a unique style – one of which has a powder room with lavatory – as well as a vast separate shower room with lavatory. On the second floor, under the insulated roof, a lounge space opens onto the staircase, while a last bedroom, bathed in sunlight, is located near the bathroom with lavatory. The rest of the floor is reserved for the attic space. As for the garden level, it includes a summer kitchen and furnace room (wood-pellet central heating), a workshop, a summer shower room with lavatory and a cellar. The house’s tile roof is in great condition as is the roofing for the outbuildings, while most of the windows are double-glazed. The garden is organised into six spaces, including the courtyard enclosed on three of its four sides by two barns and the deep, asymmetrical quadrilateral swimming pool. The four storeys of the house in need of restoration – which a small courtyard separates from the first – are accessed by a spiral staircase, which is undoubtedly older than the date displayed above the building’s arched front door: 1724. Although some of its window frames have been changed recently and the shutters are new, there are eight rooms in total that need to be refurbished, in addition to three cellars and two attic spaces. An interior garden, in which a palm tree provides a Mediterranean touch, opens onto a patio under which, thanks to the slope of the street that descends towards the bridge over the river, a garage was created.

Between Montpellier and Nîmes, a former agricultural estate of 7 hectares, with a 17th-century farmhouse, a master house, outbuildings, and a 19th-century wine cellar. Less than 1 km from Quissac, the 7-hectare estate extends to the east and west, on either side of four buildings grouped together in a private hamlet: a wine cellar, a large farm known as 'le grand mas', a dovecote, and the winemaker's house. Access to the property is via the road that serves the former agricultural courtyard. The master house, which is reached through the countryside, is located opposite this departmental road, facing the vineyards and woods. Strongly testifying, through the articulation of its elements, to a past viticultural activity, the property has evidently undergone several destinies. An artisanal silk production activity may have preceded viticulture, before land fragmentation put a stop to it. Other uses followed – thus the former wine cellar has today been transformed into workshops and reception rooms. On the foothills of the Cévennes, the construction of the buildings, often austere, obeys only the laws that labor and rural habitation could dictate over time. The construction periods vary from one element to another and essentially oscillate between the beginning and the end of the 19th century, with architectural interventions also aimed at unifying the whole in the 20th and 21st centuries. The master house, built at the end of the 19th century, has rather curiously adopted the model of the local silk farms, modest and largely open to the south. The wine cellar, built at the same time, was renovated after the roof of the central part collapsed. The 'grand mas', which was undoubtedly a rural dwelling with its few vaulted low rooms, provides a clear example of construction carried out on earlier remains, likely from the late 17th century or early 18th century. The dovecote, made of red bricks, built on the roof of outbuildings used for housing, dates from the early 20th century and is surrounded by a series of small adjoining houses currently serving as rental accommodations. The whole, whose appeal is enhanced by the preservation of the natural environment from various damages, offers an interesting testimony to the daily life of Cévennes viticulture. Its contemporary rehabilitation, unfinished in places, has granted it a certain homogeneity.This description has been automatically translated from French.

On the outskirts of Lisbon, in a natural park and near the beaches, a 16th century palace and its 42 ha estate. This is a solitary palace in the mountains, facing the immensity of the Atlantic. At the highest point of the Serra de Arrábida, this 16th century sanctuary was built by Madalena Giron, second duchess of Aveiro and devotee of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. The 42-hectare estate was famous for the hunting parties that brought together the nobility of Azeitão. The guests stayed on the premises and attended mass in the chapel, which was a place of pilgrimage for the inhabitants of the area. Today, the architectural complex covers approximately 3,200 m², with several halls, private areas, outdoor and agricultural areas, for a total of 30 rooms. The interior is of great elegance and has retained all its original charm. The floors are of natural stone, the ceilings of painted wood and authentic Azulejo frescoes cover the exterior as well as the interior walls. In the main hall, a genuine Flanders tapestry welcomes visitors, who come to the Palácio for social events, weddings and christenings. The complex is well worth its reputation and is only a few minutes' drive from the splendid Portinho Arrábida, considered to be one of the most beautiful beaches in Europe.

Approached across a stone bridge that spans its medieval moat, Old Surrey Hall is one of Surrey’s most extraordinary country houses. Originally dating from the 15th century and comprehensively restored and enlarged by renowned architects George Crowley and Joseph Emberton in 1937, this Grade I-listed estate extends to more than 18,000 sq ft, combining centuries of architectural history with the comforts of modern family living. At the heart of the house lies the spectacular Great Hall, a soaring triple-height space framed by magnificent timber arches and oak panelling. Rich in character and scale, it serves as the centrepiece of a home that balances grand entertaining rooms with intimate family spaces. Throughout the house, original architectural details sit alongside carefully considered interventions commissioned by the current owner, who reunited the previously divided property and engaged architect Anthony Hackett and interior designer Kelly Hoppen to restore it as a single residence. Arranged around a central courtyard, the accommodation includes a series of elegant reception rooms, a formal dining room, a substantial family kitchen, ancillary service areas and a striking stone-floored ballroom currently used as an art studio. The principal bedroom suite enjoys far-reaching views across the gardens and croquet lawn and features a dressing room and generous bathroom. In total, the house offers 14 bedrooms and numerous bathrooms arranged across two wings, making it exceptionally well suited to large families, multigenerational living or entertaining on a significant scale. Beyond the main house, a separate three-bedroom residence provides flexible guest or staff accommodation. Formerly squash courts, it has been transformed into a charming standalone home with vaulted ceilings and a basement games room. Additional barns and outbuildings contribute a further 2,100 sq ft of ancillary space, including two remarkable Normandy barns that were dismantled in France and painstakingly rebuilt on the estate. The grounds are as impressive as the house itself. Extending to approximately 34 acres, they encompass formal gardens, a croquet lawn, an orchard, kitchen gardens, a lake, a heated swimming pool with pool house, a tennis court and extensive parkland. Mature trees frame long views across the surrounding countryside, while the moat and white garden lend a rare sense of romance and seclusion. Occupying an exceptional position on the Surrey and Sussex border, Old Surrey Hall is surrounded by some of the South East's most beautiful countryside. The estate lies within easy reach of the High Weald National Landscape and Ashdown Forest, with miles of walking, riding and cycling routes weaving through ancient woodland and rolling farmland. Nearby East Grinstead provides a comprehensive range of amenities, while Lingfield's racecourse, championship golf courses and a number of highly regarded schools are all within easy reach.
