THE TERRACES OF BESANÇON Overlooking the Citadel, these hanging gardens ? awarded the 'Jardin Remarquable' designation in 2023 ? unfold as a succession of terraces painstakingly shaped over the years. Perched on the heights of Besançon, the site strikes a tangible balance between the art of living, hospitality and contemplation. A VIEWING POINT, A GARDEN SHAPED BY TIME From the path, the approach remains discreet. Then, once through the gate, the view opens up onto the Citadel, situated along the axis, like a landmark around which everything is organised. The grounds bear the traces of a gradual transformation. An initial slope has, over the years, become a succession of gardens, terraces and wooded areas designed for entertaining and sharing. Each level serves a specific purpose, revealed as you make your way through. The pathways follow this design. Your steps follow the water, which connects the spaces through a series of ponds and waterfalls. The movement becomes continuous, almost meditative. Carp appear beneath the surface, whilst vegetation frames the pathways. Awarded the 'Remarkable Garden' label in 2023, the whole expresses a harmony between plant composition, topography and function. Vegetable patches, fruit trees and ornamental vines are part of this living dynamic. Each season redefines the contours of the site. A HOME ROOTED IN ITS FUNCTIONS The entrance via the loggia provides a gentle transition. The dining room, at the centre, naturally structures the flow of movement. The west-facing living room is perfect for the end of the day and opens out onto the outdoors. Light filters through, revealing the spaces. The kitchen, organised around granite worktops and built-in appliances, extends the living spaces with fluidity. A ground-floor bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe leads into a utility room. Together, they create a seamless daily life, immediately at home. Upstairs, the bedrooms are clearly arranged around the bathroom. Clean lines follow the flow of light. THE ART OF HOSTING, THE PRIVILEGE OF CONTEMPLATION Each terrace marks a distinct moment in the journey, within a continuity where the Citadel remains ever-present, visible from one level to the next. The reception terrace welcomes guests around a large table, an outdoor bar and a pizza oven. Conversations flow naturally here, with the city in view. The kota gathers people around the central fire. Beneath the wisteria, the shade becomes a refuge, dense and cool, filtering the views and revealing glimpses of the Citadel. The swimming pool is set within a sheltered, enveloping green setting. Sun loungers are positioned within this carefully controlled space, balancing privacy and the landscape. Further on, a relaxation area features an outdoor bed, suspended between sky and foliage. The outbuilding forms part of this gradual evolution. It accommodates a seasonal activity already in place, in natural harmony with the whole. The journey continues up to the higher levels, where the views open out even further. Every step reveals a new perspective on the place. A place where the outdoors fully shapes the way of living. AGENCY'S VIEW A property shaped by time, where the garden forms the very structure of the site. Facing the citadel, the terraces organise the various uses, with each space finding its rightful place. A home where living, entertaining and welcoming guests flow seamlessly into one another.

As for the property, it is bordered to the south by the Ognon River and to the west by a 3-hectare pond, whereas, the chateau itself has undergone significant renovations in recent years, both in terms of its structural works as well as its finishing details, which could be continued depending on the next occupant’s plans for the premises.

MANOR HOUSE IN A WOODED PARK IN BESANÇON Just a few minutes from the centre of Besançon, Le Clos Saint-Paul evokes a unique atmosphere: that of a grand residence set back within its landscape, whilst remaining closely linked to the city. Built in 1771, this stately home covers approximately 590 m² within a 1.5-hectare enclosed park, dotted with century-old trees and opening out onto the forest. Behind its stone façades, the spacious rooms offer comfort and privacy. Light floods into the reception rooms, whilst parquet flooring, marble, a bespoke bookcase and large windows preserve the elegance of a historic architectural style that has been reinterpreted over time. A heated swimming pool, outbuildings and a detached house round off the possibilities offered by this estate with its many potential uses. A HISTORIC RESIDENCE BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE FOREST You must take the Chemin du Fort Benoît and gradually leave the urban rhythm behind to truly appreciate Le Clos Saint-Paul. Here, Besançon remains close by, whilst the landscape is already taking on a different character. Walls, hedges and tall trees outline the boundaries of a 1.5-hectare estate, bordering the forest. Amidst this lush greenery, the house comes into view. Built in 1771 from stone, then extensively restructured in 1961, it retains that distinctive presence characteristic of old houses whose proportions have stood the test of time. Its exposed stone façades, its openings and certain windows with an almost British feel give it the silhouette of a manor house, sitting naturally within its grounds. The flat, fully enclosed plot complements the house in every respect. Mornings invite you to take a stroll beneath the trees; later in the day, the south-facing stone terrace becomes an extension of the living areas. Just a few steps away, the 10-by-5-metre heated outdoor swimming pool creates another, more summery setting, opening out onto the garden. HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE BATHE IN LIGHT Inside, the 590 m² of living space is spread over two levels. The sense of space is immediately apparent: high ceilings, generous views and abundant light give the rooms a spaciousness particularly suited to family life and entertaining. The living room, measuring approximately 50 m², enjoys a south-west facing aspect. The materials tell the story of the house's different eras: solid or contemporary parquet flooring, marble, stretched fabrics and a bespoke bookcase combine to create an atmosphere where the old dialogues with more recent additions. The Poggenpohl kitchen has a contemporary design. Marble worktops, a large central island and a dining area make it a living space in its own right, extended by a utility room. The property currently comprises five bedrooms, with the potential to create up to seven, including a spacious suite with an en-suite bathroom. This layout offers great flexibility: a family home spanning several generations, a place to welcome loved ones for the long term, or a residence designed to combine private life with entertaining. A PROPERTY WITH MANY POSSIBILITIES Le Clos Saint-Paul also stands out for what surrounds the main house. A detached house of approximately 110 m², arranged as a duplex within an outbuilding, provides a space for family, friends or guests to stay in their own quarters. A barn of approximately 240 m² and attic spaces of approximately 250 m², partially converted, further expand the possibilities. The estate also offers, as an option, equestrian facilities, with existing structures suitable for keeping horses; a stud farm situated on the same property could be considered as a further addition. This versatility gives the place a unique depth. One can envisage a large family home where everyone has their own space, a heritage property destined to be passed down through the generations, but also a hospitality venture where the main building and outbuildings would take on a new function. The town remains within easy reach. Shops are just a few minutes' walk away, Besançon-Viotte station is about ten minutes' drive away, and the A36 motorway towards Marchaux is approximately fifteen minutes' drive away. Le Clos Saint-Paul thus strikes a rare balance between two rhythms: that of a park, with its trees and the neighbouring forest; and that of a town which one encounters almost as soon as one passes through the gate. THE AGENT'S PERSPECTIVE ?What struck me first was the scale of the estate and the way the house stands at the heart of its grounds. Once inside, it is the spaciousness and the light that take centre stage. The large windows, with their subtle British flair, give the house the air of a manor house and play a key part in its character. There is a real sense of serenity here. It's easy to imagine morning walks beneath the trees, followed by a return to this spacious home. In Besançon, I know of few places that combine such an expansive estate, such distinctive architecture and such close proximity to the city. I

The double garage with automatic doors, the basement, storage areas, the attic, and the partially converted loft offer significant potential for expansion to meet a family's needs over time. With nearly 200 m² of living space, five bedrooms, and areas that open widely onto the garden, this property meets the needs of both a large family and a remote worker or independent professional seeking to combine a peaceful living environment with proximity to Besançon. THE AGENCY'S OPINION This property stands out for a balance that has become hard to find on the Besançon market. On one hand, it features a vast, enclosed lot opening onto the countryside, a light-filled cathedral-ceilinged living room, and spacious rooms designed for family life. On the other hand, its location allows for quick access to downtown, schools, and major transportation routes. A place where you can enjoy a true breath of fresh air every day, without giving up the benefits of city life.

MANOR HOUSE ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BESANÇON Just a few minutes from Besançon, this historic property reveals behind its walls a rare ensemble comprising a 19th-century mansion, a renovated guest house, and a second detached house waiting to be reimagined. Set within over two hectares of wooded grounds, the stone facades, gravel paths, and lush vegetation create a place filled with tranquility, light, and the promise of a legacy. A WALLED PROPERTY ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BESANÇON From the cul-de-sac, the property appears discreetly behind its gates and century-old trees. The property immediately evokes a sense of space rarely found in the Greater Besançon area, nestled between unspoiled countryside and quick access to shops, schools, and major thoroughfares. The main house, built in the late 19th century, stands alongside a fully renovated guest house and a second detached building currently used for storage. The layout of the estate allows for the possibility of an extended family life, spaces for entertaining, or additional uses over time. Surrounding the buildings, the landscaped grounds unfold with gentle slopes, hedges, mature trees, and views of the surrounding nature. A deeply residential setting, designed to be lived in as much as to be enjoyed. INTERIORS BLENDING OLD-WORLD ELEGANCE WITH MODERN COMFORT The main house offers approximately 190 m² spread over three levels. The spaces retain the spirit of old bourgeois mansions: high ceilings, moldings, wood paneling, wall niches, solid hardwood floors, and a wooden staircase connecting the floors. Light floods the reception rooms and living areas, which open onto the greenery and surrounding natural landscapes. The separate kitchen, centered around a central island and marble countertops, extends this atmosphere of a family home lived in day to day. The original materials interact with more contemporary elements that have been discreetly integrated. Geothermal heating, double-glazed aluminum window frames, and technical systems provide a modern take on comfort without altering the home's identity. In addition, the guest house features a separate space spread over two levels, while the garages, carports, cellars, and workshops offer a multitude of possibilities. A PLACE TO LIVE, ENTERTAIN, AND GROW The uniqueness of this property lies as much in its location as in its layout. Few estates offer more than two hectares of private land just minutes from Besançon and the Auxons TGV station. The second detached house naturally opens the door to various projects: a family guesthouse, a professional space, a caretaker's home, or a future additional residence after renovation. The property maintains a sense of privacy without isolation, striking a particularly sought-after balance between urban life and the tranquility of nature. A property designed for those seeking more than just a house: a place to call home for the long term. AGENCY'S OPINION This property has a unique presence in the Besançon landscape. The grounds, the various buildings, and the architecture of the main house form a rare ensemble, capable of accommodating both a vibrant family life and a broader legacy project.

DUPLEX APARTMENT ABOVE THE ROOFS OF BESANÇON Located in the heart of Besançon's historic centre, this duplex is set within a period building. It has been completely redesigned by its architect. The redesign prioritises light, spaciousness and generous living areas, offering beautiful views. Every element has been crafted by skilled tradespeople using high-quality materials, with a focus on harmony to create a cohesive whole. The windows frame views of hundreds of Comtois rooftops, notably Vauban's citadel and the River Doubs. The two south-facing open terraces extend the space outwards and complement this architectural style. This duplex apartment in Besançon embodies an approach where design, spaciousness, light and practicality come together. A HOLISTIC DESIGN DRIVEN BY DETAIL The apartment was designed as a coherent whole, conceived from the outset in terms of its volumes, circulation and materials. The living area is organised around a largely open central space, where light flows freely through the floor-to-ceiling windows and roof openings. The Greek white Calacatta marble flooring complements this pursuit of light and continuity, with a soft, mineral presence. Upon entering, a stained-glass window handcrafted in a workshop in Chartres introduces a palette of graduated blues. Prominently displayed, a staircase?a unique piece?rises to provide access to the mezzanine. Created by designer Roger Tallon, a leading figure in French industrial design, it unfolds its helical form. The bubbled crystal light fittings by Raak cast a focused, vibrant light thanks to touch-sensitive controls that adjust the lighting. Textiles by Clara Lander lend a softer, more subdued feel. The mezzanine, meanwhile, extends the spaces and supports their various uses, with a direct connection to the outdoor areas. THE TERRACES AT THE HEART OF THE PROJECT Usually rare in city centres, these terraces here extend the interior spaces. Meticulously designed, they incorporate irrigation, lighting, power sockets and evergreen vegetation that gives structure to the space throughout the year. They become a living space in their own right, combining cooking, relaxation and everyday activities. Set within the roof structure, they sit set back whilst offering unobstructed views of the city: the quays, the Tour de la Pelote, the Church of La Madeleine, the Citadel and the museum all feature in the landscape. Access is direct from the mezzanine, creating a seamless flow. Two steps connect the terraces, without interrupting the flow of movement. The lines remain understated, the floors mineral, the vegetation discreet. Together, they form a structured outdoor space that is easy to live in. Here, one can dine, garden, or simply relax at different times of the day. An integrated outdoor space, in tune with the rhythm of the city. A LOCATION ROOTED IN THE HISTORY OF BESANÇON Located on Quai Vauban, the apartment is part of an iconic architectural complex. The River Doubs, the aligned and listed façades, and the proximity to cultural institutions all contribute to the identity of the location. The neighbourhood supports a fluid daily rhythm, with shops, schools and amenities within walking distance. The Citadel and the historic fabric place the development within a heritage context. This address strikes a balance between urban presence and an elevated position, offering a different perspective on Besançon, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. AGENCY'S OPINION This property is part of a holistic design approach, where every element finds its place within a coherent whole. The signatures of designers and craftsmen, the use of materials and the relationship with the outdoors create a lived-in, precise and unique space. The terraces extend this connection with the city.

Haussmann-style apartment in Besançon Hidden from view at the back of an 18th-century mansion, this Haussmann-style apartment has a rare presence. Here, the city center feels intimate, almost hushed. The rooms are impressive without being overwhelming, the high ceilings set the tone, and the old parquet floors and fireplaces recall a time when architecture was as much about status as it was about lifestyle. Completely redesigned to meet contemporary needs, this space combines the restrained splendor of the past with the comfort of a high-quality renovation. An apartment with character, for those looking for more than just an address: a living experience. An interior shaped by history The apartment is organized as a series of living rooms, designed for both entertaining and privacy. The spacious and structured living areas offer a clear interpretation of the volumes, where each perspective finds its breathing space. The old floors, moldings, woodwork, and fireplaces interact with a contemporary, precise, and never ostentatious design. Natural light glides along the walls, highlighting architectural details and accompanying the rhythm of the day. Here, nothing is decorative by chance: each element contributes to a solemn yet warm atmosphere, where one can imagine both large gatherings and the calm of a chosen daily life. In the more intimate spaces, the bedrooms extend this feeling of seclusion and serenity. The flow of movement is fluid, designed for comfortable, uninterrupted living. The fully equipped kitchen has a modern, understated style that blends perfectly with the spirit of the place. A rare balance between heritage and practicality, without compromise. The backyard as a refuge Located at the back of the courtyard, the apartment enjoys a unique location: protected from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet anchored in its lively heart. This backyard, characteristic of Besançon's mansions, creates a precious distance from the street. Here, time is perceived differently, slower, more hushed. The views open onto the surrounding architecture and the Citadel, a discreet but constant reminder of the history of the place. Here, there is no spectacular garden, but a rare feeling of seclusion in the city center: that of living in a preserved space, originally designed to last. This location reinforces the feeling of exclusivity. The apartment does not reveal itself immediately; it is something to be discovered. This is a quality that has become precious, almost impossible to find, in a dense urban fabric. A world within reach Living here means embracing a demanding urban lifestyle. The historic center of Besançon unfolds all around, with its shops, cultural venues, squares, and institutions. The neighborhood offers a complete picture of the city: dynamic, rich in heritage, and deeply inhabited. Nearby, walks, cultural spaces, and places to live make for a fluid, unrestricted daily life. The Citadel, the quays, and the surrounding hills remind us that nature is never far away, even in the heart of the city. This area appeals to clients who are sensitive to history, architecture, and a certain idea of urban comfort: cultured, discreet, deeply rooted in its environment. The agency's opinion: This apartment perfectly embodies what we look for at Arrière-Cour: a confidential address, remarkable architecture, and a subtle balance between heritage and modernity. Its location in the rear courtyard of an 18th-century mansion makes it a rare find on the Besançon market. It is ideal for buyers looking for a property with character, steeped in history, but designed for a demanding contemporary lifestyle. A place of distinction, without ostentation. Condominiums of 30 units (No proceedings in progress). Annual expenses : 4500 euros.
