luxury real estate for sale Cercy-la-Tour, France

A Timeless Estate in the Heart of Nivernais 55 hectares • 16 ha pond • Historic mill • Restored house • Old mill. Outbuildings Imagine waking up to the sound of birds, facing a mirror pond of 16 hectares, in a property where every stone tells several centuries of history… Nestled in a secret valley of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, this exceptional estate encompasses 55 hectares of everything nature lovers, hunters, and those seeking an authentic life could hope for: a historic mill with red brick facades reflecting in the calm waters of a pond, a fully restored house with all modern comforts, and a green setting where woods, meadows, and streams succeed one another infinitely. Ideal Location — Accessible, yet at the End of the World Just 9 km away, the Cercy-la-Tour train station allows you to reach Paris in 3 hours via the Lyon station. Decize, 17 km away, concentrates all shops and services. Here, isolation is a luxury, not a constraint. A Sanctuary for Nature and Hunting Lovers 55 hectares in one block — it’s a whole territory that opens up to you. An alternating landscape of century-old woods, open meadows, and wetlands, majestic oaks, and century-old chestnut trees punctuate the park with remarkable biodiversity. At the center, the 16-hectare pond fed by several streams — including the Cressonne — is a true haven for fishermen and lovers of wild nature. The old fishery, still operational, with its main basin and fish reservoirs, testifies to a nourishing tradition passed down through generations. The icing on the cake: an engineering study has revealed that the site has an estimated hydropower potential of 3 kWh per day — a real path to energy autonomy. The Buildings: Authenticity and Comfort at the Rendezvous The Main House — 109 m² Fully restored in 2009, it combines the charm of the old — lime walls, exposed beams, functional stone fireplace — with modern comforts: underfloor heating (with water/water heat pump), double insulation, equipped kitchen. It offers a bright living room, kitchen, a bedroom, and a shower room on the ground floor; upstairs, two additional bedrooms under the beams and a bathroom. A warm home, ready to welcome a family or guests. The Mill — The Jewel of the Estate - a bedroom It steals the show. Its red brick facades reflect in the pond it borders, creating a scene worthy of the most beautiful postcards of Burgundy. Three habitable levels, period octagonal tiles, a wood stove, a bedroom with a fireplace… and, at the top, a spectacular frame known as "à la Philibert Delorme," shaped like an upside-down ship hull — an architectural feat from the 16th century, extremely rare. The Outbuildings — Unlimited Potential The stone barn (200 m²), the old pigsty (45 m², 5 rooms of which 3 are already converted into a laundry room, food storage, office), the woodshed (30 m²)… so many raw spaces to convert according to your ambitions. Here, space is not lacking. This Estate is Meant to Be Lived In — and Exploited An exceptional primary or secondary residence, but also a true heritage tool with high potential. Here are some ideas among others: Premium cottage or tourist accommodation The mill and the house are ideally suited for high-end guest accommodations. The exceptional natural setting, the pond, the bucolic landscapes: everything is in place to attract clientele in search of authentic escape and total disconnection. Prestigious Event Venue Country weddings, corporate seminars, creative or spiritual retreats, private events… The site — with its monumental barn, outdoor spaces by the pond, and out-of-time atmosphere — offers a dream backdrop for unforgettable events. Swimming Pool — An Evidence The generous and well-exposed land is perfectly suited for the installation of a swimming pool that would complement the leisure offerings of the estate — for personal use as well as for tourist exploitation. Energy Autonomy The identified hydropower potential opens the door to green energy production on site. A differentiating, rare, and precious asset in a time that values autonomy and sustainability. Properties like this one are practically non-existent. Not simply because it is beautiful — which it undoubtedly is. But because it is whole: a territory, a history, a soul. It does not await transformation; it simply awaits the right project, and above all, the right people to give it a new life worthy of what it is.

A unique, 18th-century mill, with a fully restored house, outbuildings, more than 55 hectares of grounds and a 16-hectare fishing lake, in the countryside of the former Nivernais province. The property stretches over 55 hectares on either side of a vast, approximately 16-hectare lake through which flows the River Cressonne. This water mirror forms the natural crossroads of the estate, around which the different buildings are set. A drive winds through the grounds up to a two-storey, fully restored manor house with a cellar. The limewash rendered façades are dotted with regularly shaped windows on either side of an elegant south facing entrance that can be reached via a central, double-flighted set of stone steps. To the north, the main entrance onto the garden level stands opposite the former pigsty, a witness to the estate’s rural past. The edifice is topped by a sober, dark, slate roof. A former barn stands slightly set back to the northwest. The mill building stands below the house, to the south. Its red brick façades reflect in the water of the lake on whose shores it stands. It was constructed as a grain mill and previously figured among the Nièvre area’s many water-powered buildings, whose activity was gradually abandoned with the rise of industrialisation. Its distinctive feature is its roof frame like an upturned ship’s hull. The structure is made up of light pieces of flat wood assembled using an ingenious wedge system and did not require the use of large lifting machines. It is covered with small, flat terracotta tiles that are typical of the region. This type of roof frame, known in France as a ‘Philibert Delorme’ roof frame after the architect whose technique became widespread in the 16th century, is directly inspired by the shape of a ship’s hull and enabled the entirety of the attic space to be used for storage of commodities. The waterwheel is no longer in place but it is still possible to see the tailrace and the where the water previously passed.

Listed as a Historic Monument, this exceptional château is located at the gateway to the Morvan, within a site inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Set within nearly 6 hectares of remarkable parkland and gardens, it was originally built in the 13th century on the remains of a medieval fortress, and later remodelled and expanded in the 15th and 17th centuries. The estate comprises the main château, restored 17th-century outbuildings known as the “Petit Château,” a circular tower converted into a prestigious private apartment, and extensive reception areas. The property offers numerous en-suite bedrooms, elegant lounges, libraries, historic and professional kitchens, as well as wellness facilities including a heated swimming pool and a hammam. The landscaped grounds, featuring a formal French garden, ornamental ponds, a kitchen garden, and direct access to the Nivernais Canal, enhance this outstanding architectural heritage, which has been meticulously restored and is protected under Historic Monument status.

On the edge of Morvan, in Nivernais, between Châtillon-en-Bazois and Château-Chinon, a fortified house from the 14th century, its outbuildings, and its estate of 17 hectares. Spanning an area of about 17 hectares, the estate is situated at an altitude of 300 meters and enjoys a continental climate. Mainly composed of fertile pastures, it has four ponds located to the south of the fortified house, aligned along an east-west axis that follows the slight slope of the land. To the north, three imposing barns, with facades made of plastered stones and roofs of traditional flat tiles, mechanical tiles, or slates, mark the entrance to the property. The residence consists of two buildings arranged at a right angle and adjoined by a square plan main tower, mentioned as early as 1443. The tower has retained its gun loopholes in its upper part, characteristic of its original defensive use. Its four-pitched roof is covered with Burgundy tiles, like the roofs of the residence, and is topped with two ridge finials while two dormer windows light up the attic of the residence. Access to the gravelled inner courtyard, located to the east of the fortified house, is through a small gatehouse whose porch is supported by two rounded arches. A more recent house, attached to the gatehouse, now houses the boiler room and a workshop. Finally, a second tower, to the south, attached to the main body of the residence, contains a spiral stone staircase. Between the two towers, the east and west facades of the dwelling, which has two levels under the roof, pierced by mainly straight openings and an oculus, are quite sober, covered everywhere except for the stone framing. Another character element contributing to the soul of the place is a contemporary garden created by the current occupants. The estate has retained its medieval appearance, and archival research has identified the presence of an ancient lordship from the first half of the 14th century.This description has been automatically translated from French.
