A 17th & 18th century manor house, outbuildings and parkland, set in almost 2 hectares of land near Azay-le-Rideau, in Touraine. At the end of the village, a lane winds through the countryside to the property entrance. A wrought-iron gate, supported by two tufa stone pillars, opens onto a driveway that crosses the parkland in front of the residence and leads on to the outbuildings. Originally a simple hunting lodge, the dwelling was probably built in the 17th century, then extended in the 18th century and later. It is in an asymmetrical shape and is oriented east-west. The main west-facing façade features tufa-framed windows with cornices under the roof and a stringcourse over a tower wing. The carved wooden entrance door on the central section is off-centre. To the east, French windows lead from a grass terrace into the house. The slate roofs are adorned with zinc finials. The central double body, with a single storey under the eaves, is topped by a small square tower and flanked to the north by a rectangular tower lodge, also two storeys’ high under the eaves, and a single-storey building to the south. The rendered stone façades, with tufa stone quoins, have various sized windows, with small or large panes and tufa stone surrounds. The slate roofs have triangular pediment dormers in the central section. The interiors still have some of the old features, such as parquet flooring and tufa stone fireplaces in the reception rooms. The six bedrooms are spread over the three floors of the house. Extensive wooded parkland surrounds the manor house, covering almost 2 hectares, with terraces, gardens and undergrowth. There are also rock cellars, a swimming pool in need of renovation and three outbuildings on the estate.

This estate is in a wild, wooded setting, with a view over the surrounding countryside. It is reached via two driveways, one reserved for visitors and the other for tradespeople. The first is a long avenue, with woods and meadows on either side. It is barred halfway along by gates, flanked by tall pillars, and is dotted with old streetlamps, lighting the way to the entrance courtyard in front of the castle, with the keep looking on. It precedes the old chapel, the top section of which is now converted into a bedroom, followed by a house that could be used as a caretaker’s cottage and, lastly, the castle. Driveways lead from the entrance courtyard to the rear where there are carparks and meadows, delimited by hedges. A pathway gives access to the south-facing, swimming pool area, surrounded by safety fencing and partially enclosed by old walls.

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.

There are two entrance gates, one to the front and one to the rear of the buildings. The first opens onto a parking area and a car port where two vehicles can be parked. A drive runs through part of the grounds, through which the River Brenne flows, and leads around the former mill to a patio enclosed by a wooden fence with a gate in front of the building, which is made up of two edifices and was built with rubble stone covered with rendering. The different sized windows have brick frames, which is typical of the region, and the large patio doors on the ground floor let light stream generously into all the rooms. A former lean-to standing against the gable end has been transformed into a summer kitchen and is glazed on three sides. Five bedrooms and a vast office space are spread over the first two floors. The attic level forms a single room and the whole building has recently been fully renovated. Next to the mill, an outbuilding with a bread oven could be converted, as could the brick outbuilding alongside the narrow street. Opposite the mill, a barn is used for storing gardening material and also serves as a workshop. The banks of the mill race have been planted with flower beds and the grounds are very well kept, with a variety of trees, a range of landscaped spaces, lawns and a vegetable garden.

In the middle of the village, the edifice, listed as a regional Historical Monument and in all likelihood dating back to the 14th century, was once the residence for a Benedictine abbey, whose 18th-century buildings still stand directly opposite. With three storeys, the dwelling features a tall and wide gable end, facing the street, with stone edging, as well as a 'Montpellier squinch' with stone corbels, while its slate roof is typical of buildings from the 15th and 16th centuries. As for the main façade, perpendicular to the street and overlooking the garden, the latter of which is accessible via a gate and bordered by a small canal, it boasts a number of various size windows as well as two square turrets on either side, including one topped with a slate hipped roof, whereas on its street side, an ancient wing, built out of ashlar stone, is topped with a flat tile single-pitch roof. Last, but not least, the dwelling’s northern side and western gable end, facing the canal and also crowned with stone edging, were visibly adjusted in the 17th century with the addition of three large windows on each floor in order to make them blend in seamlessly with the 'new' perpendicular wing from the same era, which is now a separate property.
