STONE HOUSE IN PORT-LESNEY In Port-Lesney, a charming village nestled in the Loue Valley, this stone house embodies a way of life where heritage blends seamlessly with contemporary comfort. Spanning nearly 205 m², it comprises a family home, a separate apartment, a vaulted cellar, a barn, two workshops, and a tree-lined garden opening onto the river. The traditional materials, generous spaces, and views of nature come together to create a place designed as much for family life as for hospitality, just a few minutes from Arbois and the Mouchard TGV station. STONE AS HERITAGE Stepping through the property's entrance is like entering a different rhythm?that of the Jura villages where stone facades have lined the Loue River for generations, where every house seems to hold a story. Built in the early 19th century, this home is fully in keeping with that heritage. Restored with care to preserve its identity, it offers nearly 205 m² of living space across three levels. From the moment you step inside, the cut stone, oak beams, Burgundy flagstones, vaulted ceilings, and wooden trim create an authentic and warm atmosphere. The separate, fully equipped kitchen retains the spirit of the place while meeting modern needs. The living areas flow naturally into one another. Each room has its own distinct character. Upstairs, the bedrooms invite tranquility, while a spacious open-plan area of approximately 100 m² opens up new possibilities: expanding the home, creating a space dedicated to a specific activity, or adapting to the changing needs of family life. Geothermal heating, supplemented by two wood-burning stoves, provides sustainable comfort and controlled energy consumption, offering energy efficiency that is rare for a home of this era. A LIVING SPACE WITH MANY POSSIBILITIES This property goes beyond its role as a family home. Its layout naturally lends itself to a variety of uses. The separate apartment features a living room with a fully equipped kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom. It can comfortably accommodate family and friends with complete independence or serve as a rental unit in a sought-after area of the Loue Valley. The 46 m² vaulted cellar is one of the property's most distinctive spaces. Its rustic, stone-walled interior lends itself equally well to meals, wine tastings, or entertaining. The barn and two workshops further expand the possibilities for conversion. Whether used as an artisan's studio, a creative space, a garage, or storage, these areas offer true freedom of use while preserving the property's character. Outside, the enclosed, tree-lined garden, dotted with fruit trees, flows from the paved terraces all the way to the banks of the Loue. The river marks the passing of the seasons and enhances the sense of space that characterizes this property. A LIFESTYLE AMIDST THE RIVER, VINEYARDS, AND HERITAGE In Port-Lesney, daily life unfolds as much within the home as it does in harmony with its surroundings. Straddled by the Loue River, the village brings together heritage, nature, and local craftsmanship within a vibrant landscape. Shops are within walking distance. The Mouchard TGV station provides quick access to the Jura, Paris, and Switzerland. Arbois showcases its wine cellars and vineyards, while the Royal Saltworks of Arc-et-Senans, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, bears witness to the region's cultural richness. Hiking, bike trails, canoeing, fishing, and exploring the vineyards are part of daily life and contribute to a lifestyle centered on nature. This house is equally suited to serving as a primary residence, a country home, or a guesthouse, thanks to its separate apartment and numerous outbuildings. THE AGENCY'S OPINION Some homes captivate with their architecture. Others stand out for the way they are lived in. This one naturally combines both. We were particularly impressed by the balance between the preserved character of the old stonework, the quality of the renovations, and energy efficiency that is rare for a building from the early 19th century. The separate apartment and outbuildings expand the property's potential uses without ever compromising the identity of the place.

The glass-enclosed veranda extends the interior spaces toward the garden, serving as an additional room that looks out onto the landscape. Everywhere, light highlights the textures of wood, stone, and traditional materials that give this home its unique character. A HOME DESIGNED TO BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER With its seven bedrooms, numerous bathrooms, and spacious reception areas, the house seems naturally suited for large family gatherings and get-togethers with friends. Each level preserves the privacy of its occupants while fostering moments of togetherness. The living spaces invite long evenings by the fire, meals bringing together several generations, or weekends where everyone finds their place without ever feeling cramped. The atmosphere of the place is that of a home passed down and enriched over time. A residence that welcomes guests with simplicity and generosity, where the aged materials quietly tell their story. A REFUGE IN THE HEART OF THE JURA Outside, the 3,913 m² property extends the spirit of the home. The trees, the orchard, the lawns, and the stream create a living landscape that changes with the seasons. Saizenay's location allows you to fully enjoy the tranquility of the Jura countryside while remaining close to Arbois, Salins-les-Bains, and the major natural sites for which the region is renowned. Waterfalls, secluded valleys, forests, hiking trails, and Jura panoramas are part of daily life for those who choose to settle here. Above all, this property offers a way of life?a place where life naturally slows down, where the seasons reclaim their rightful place, and where every return home feels like a welcome respite. THE AGENCY'S OPINION What makes this place so appealing is the balance between authenticity and warmth. The house has a real presence, thanks to its spaciousness, its traditional materials, and its welcoming atmosphere. More than just a renovated old farmhouse, it evokes those large family homes where memories are naturally built around shared moments. A genuine place, deeply rooted in its Jura surroundings.

A few rows of grapevines serve as a direct reminder of the house's history. Spanning approximately three ares, the Aligoté vines still anchor the property in its winemaking past and give the garden a unique identity. The equipment needed for vineyard maintenance and work is included with the property. For those who wish to continue this tradition, training is available to help with the first steps. The house also features a sheltered terrace facing southeast. The courtyard and various outdoor spaces create several pleasant pathways between the main building, the garden, and the outbuildings. A barn accommodates two vehicles, a workshop, and the pellet-fired boiler with its 4-metric-ton silo. A former caretaker's house of approximately 30 m², now used for storage and housing a bread oven, completes the property. The attic and other ancillary spaces still offer potential for use. An underground wine cellar seamlessly extends the property's history. BETWEEN BESANÇON, ORNANS, AND THE FIRST PLATEAU The property is located in Les Monts-Ronds, in the Villers-sous-Montrond area, halfway between Saône and Ornans. This location allows for a close connection to the countryside while providing easy access to the region's main centers. Saône and its train station are about ten minutes away, as are Fontain and Ornans. Besançon remains easily accessible for daily needs?whether for work or school?while the property's location also allows for easy travel toward the Swiss border. The land and outbuildings offer several possibilities for living in the house. It could become a permanent family home or a charming weekend retreat. More than just a backdrop, the vineyard, stone, and trees here tell the story of a place that has been inhabited for over three centuries. THE AGENT'S PERSPECTIVE What stands out to me here is the building's charm and the quality of the restoration work. The beautiful stonework, the original features, and the spacious rooms have preserved the house's identity, while the grounds, with their trees and a few rows of vines, extend this atmosphere outdoors. A house full of character between the Saône and Ornans, with that special feeling of a place that has stood the test of time. Sylvie du Welz

A listed medieval chateau, redesigned in the Renaissance, chapel, school and workshop, set in nearly 3 hectares of grounds, 40 minutes from Besançon. On the outskirts of the village, overlooking the fields, the chateau occupies a central position within the estate, on the site of a former 11th-century fortified castle that no longer exists. The south-western section consists of a tower and an entrance porch, where traces of the former 15th-century drawbridge are still visible. The courtyard facade was built in 1570 for Antoine d’Oiselay by the architect Hugues Sambin; both of whom were local figures. A major renovation project carried out in the early 19th century by the architect Marnotte on behalf of the de Magnoncourt family gave the complex its current layout, notably involving the raising of the roof and the creation of new interior fittings. The murals in the reception room date back to the 1980s and were painted by pupils at an art school. The building has an L-shaped layout, with a round medieval tower to the south-west and a square tower to the north-east. An outbuilding is situated to the north and is connected to it via a vestibule on the lower level. The building, comprising six storeys, includes a semi-basement housing cellars and the former kitchens, as well as an attic on the top floor. Built in the 1970s, the three-storey annexe was intended to be a school. Its converted loft houses a former cinema.

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.

The upper floors house five furnished residential units, consisting of two three-bedroom apartments, one two-bedroom apartment, one one-bedroom apartment, and one studio. All are currently rented and occupied. The variety of unit sizes allows for multiple residential uses within a single property. ESTABLISHED RENTAL INCOME Rent totals euros44,919 per year, excluding utilities, or euros3,743.25 per month, excluding utilities. The rental structure is thus supported by multiple tenants and two complementary property uses. This mix of residential and commercial space diversifies the sources of income. A LOCATION IN THE HISTORIC CENTER Rue Chifflet places the building within the urban fabric of ?La Boucle,' with the shops, services, and amenities of downtown Besançon within easy reach. The commercial space has direct access to the street, while the residential units occupy the upper floors and comprise the residential portion of the complex. THE ADVISOR'S PERSPECTIVE This building offers a configuration particularly well-suited for investment, with income generated from both residential and commercial sources. Its full occupancy, good overall condition, and individual utility meters facilitate day-to-day management. Mathieu Ardenghi

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.

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.

AN ELEGANTLY REIMAGINED APARTMENT IN BESANÇON On the second floor of a characterful building in Besançon's Chaprais neighborhood, this 95 m² apartment combines Haussmannian influences, natural light, and original period details to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Restored in 2015, it retains its original parquet floors, moldings, woodwork, fireplaces, and high ceilings. The spacious west-facing living and dining room opens onto a balcony, while two bedrooms and a versatile third room allow the layout to adapt to different needs and stages of life. A private cellar and attic provide additional space, in a neighborhood where shops, daycare, and schools are all within easy walking distance. CITY LIVING, THE CHAPRAIS WAY Some apartments reveal their character the moment you step inside. Here, it comes through in the high ceilings, finely crafted woodwork, original parquet floors, and natural light that changes as it moves through the rooms over the course of the day. The apartment occupies the second floor of a 19th-century stone building in the heart of Besançon's Chaprais neighborhood. Behind its recently restored façade, the building has an intimate feel, with just two apartments on each landing and three floors in all. At the rear, a courtyard creates a quieter, more secluded setting and reinforces the residential feel of the property. Much of daily life can be enjoyed on foot, with shops, supermarkets, daycare, and schools nearby in a lively and convenient neighborhood. PERIOD CHARACTER WITH A CONTEMPORARY TOUCH Fully renovated in 2015, the apartment spans approximately 95 m², with original features setting the tone throughout. Parquet floors, moldings and cornices, woodwork, fireplaces, original doors, and stained glass incorporated into the double-glazed windows keep the apartment's history very much present. Carefully chosen patterned wallpaper adds a contemporary counterpoint to these period details. At the heart of the apartment is the 36 m² living and dining room. Facing west, it brings both areas together in a generous space that extends through a French door onto a small balcony. As the afternoon unfolds, light moves across the parquet, highlighting the moldings, large built-in cupboards, and decorative details. The separate kitchen is fully fitted, with a layout that remains in keeping with the character of the apartment. Throughout the home, restored original cupboards blend seamlessly into the woodwork and form an integral part of the interior architecture. A LAYOUT THAT ADAPTS TO EVERYDAY LIFE A central hallway connects the rooms with an easy, natural flow. Two well-proportioned bedrooms measure 13 and 15 m², while a third room can evolve with changing needs, serving as a child's bedroom, home office, or dressing room. Between the two main bedrooms are a bathroom with a walk-in shower and a separate toilet with a hand basin. A storage room on the landing provides additional storage, while a private cellar and attic, each approximately 15 m², offer further space. The building's former washhouse now serves as a spacious shared bicycle room, preserving a subtle connection to its past. An individual condensing gas boiler provides heating and hot water, while double-glazed wood-framed windows and mechanical ventilation complete the practical features. The condominium comprises eight owners, all of whom live in their apartments. THE ADVISOR'S PERSPECTIVE ?What I love about this apartment is how naturally everything comes together, with every original detail seeming to be exactly where it belongs. The proportions, parquet floors, moldings, and woodwork give the rooms real depth, while the renovation, carried out with great care and elegance, allows the apartment to work beautifully for contemporary life. The west-facing living and dining room is probably the space that stays with you most: generous, bright, and full of life, it immediately makes you picture spending the end of the day here.'

FAMILY HOME WITH POOL IN BESANÇON Set in the elevated Montboucons neighborhood of Besançon, this family home is defined by its connection to the outdoors. Renovated in 2021, it features five bedrooms and a generous living space designed around the garden. Large glass doors open onto a cumaru wood terrace, the pool, and tree-filled grounds with a south-southeast exposure. Through the foliage, Besançon comes into view below. Inside and out feel naturally connected here, making the garden as much a part of everyday life as the rooms themselves. A LIVING SPACE DESIGNED FOR EVERYDAY LIFE The ground floor is open and cohesive, with polished concrete flooring running throughout and setting off the stone wood-burning stove and understated kitchen. The kitchen island sits at the heart of the space. It is where mornings begin over coffee and where everyone naturally gathers as dinner is prepared at the end of the day. Beyond it, expansive glass doors fill the room with natural light and keep the garden, terrace, and pool constantly in sight. Once the doors are opened in summer, indoor and outdoor living become one. This level also includes a bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs, four additional bedrooms, a shower room, and a walk-in closet create a more private floor. A mezzanine adds a flexible space that can easily become a home office, reading area, or play space as the family's needs change. OUTDOOR LIVING, FROM TERRACE TO POOL Step outside and the cumaru terrace immediately extends the living space into the garden. Its warm brown tones soften the exterior and provide a natural setting around the pool. This is where the house comes into its own in warmer weather. Meals move outdoors and linger, children go back and forth between the garden and the pool, and evenings stretch into the last light of the day. The tree-filled grounds follow the gentle slope of Montboucons, creating changing sightlines through the property. Besançon appears between the trees, visible below without ever feeling close. Whether viewed from the terrace or from the pool, the city remains a distant presence beyond the foliage. The result is a garden that feels like another living space, changing character throughout the day and from season to season. A buried 10,000-liter rainwater collection tank helps with its upkeep. MONTBOUCONS: BESANÇON WITH A SENSE OF SPACE The setting offers an appealing balance: all the convenience of living in Besançon, combined with the openness of its higher ground. Schools, shops, and healthcare facilities are nearby, with Clinique Saint-Vincent, CHU Jean-Minjoz, and Polyclinique de Franche-Comté all just a few minutes away. Practical spaces are equally well considered. The basement includes a two-car garage, laundry room, storage, and a finished wine cellar, while a carport provides additional parking outside. Radiant floor heating serves the ground floor, and the upper level is equipped with reversible air conditioning. Yet these features are not what ultimately defines the home. Its character comes from the way the spaces flow, the abundance of natural light, and a garden that is always part of the view. THE AGENT'S PERSPECTIVE ?What stands out to me is the balance this home offers. Besançon is right there when you need it, yet once you're home, there's a real sense of space and separation from the city. The living area flows naturally onto the terrace, pool, and garden, with views appearing through the trees and changing throughout the day. I can easily see a family making this home their own, especially because the spaces are flexible enough to adapt as their needs evolve over the years.' Sirine El Beggar
