luxury real estate for sale Saint-Léger-de-Fougeret, France

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.

A 14th century fortified house, outbuildings and 17 hectare estate between Châtillon-en-Bazois and Château-Chinon in the Nivernais region, on the border of the Morvan natural park. Covering an area of around 17 hectares, the estate lies at an altitude of 300 metres and enjoys a continental climate. Mainly made up of meadows with fertile soils, it includes four ponds to the south of the stronghold house, on an east-west axis that follows the slight slope of the plot. To the north, three imposing barns with rendered rubble stone façades and traditional flat tile, mechanical tile or slate roofs mark the entrance to the property. The dwelling consists of two buildings, set at right angles to each other and backed by a square master tower, mentioned as early as 1443. The latter has retained its harquebusiers in its upper section, characteristic of its first defensive use. Its four-sloped roof is made of Burgundy tiles, as are the roofs of the dwelling, and topped with two finials, while two dormer windows light up the attic of the dwelling. Access to the gravelled inner courtyard, located to the east of the stronghold house, is via a châtelet, whose porch is supported by two semi-circular arches. Adjacent to this, a more recent house now houses the boiler room and a workshop. A second tower, to the south of the main building, contains a stone spiral staircase. Between the two towers, the east and west façades of the two-storey attic dwelling featuring mainly straight windows and an oculus, are plain and rendered throughout except for the ashlar surrounds. A contemporary garden has also been laid out by the current occupants, adding to the spirit of the place. The estate has retained its medieval appearance and archival research has identified the presence of a former seigneury as early as the first half of the 14th century.

This exceptional site, a timeless treasure to be discovered, where each stone whispers the echoes of a centuries-old past. The Château de CHÂTILLON, majestically erected on its rocky spur overlooking the Nivernais Canal, is an invitation to travel through the ages. Its origins date back to the 10th century, and its current silhouette is the result of a harmonious architectural evolution. The main 13th-century residence, successively transformed in the 15th, 17th and 18th centuries, is accompanied by its 13th-century defense tower and the 17th-century ''small castle.'' The park, designed by Count LAVENNE de CHOULOT in 1830, embellished with water mirrors, a creation of the current owners, extends over 5.8 hectares and is labeled ''Remarkable Gardens.'' All this authentic heritage, tastefully renovated and perfectly maintained by its owners, benefits from a very high-end rehabilitation while preserving the charm of the place.

THE VAUPRANGES MILL IN THE MORVAN In Mhère, at the Vaupranges Mill, a road winds down into the valley floor to a property crossed by the Anguison River. The stone building stands in front of the millrace and retains part of its mechanism, which is visible from the living areas. The house comprises nine rooms, including six bedrooms, spread over four levels, and is currently used as a vacation rental. Some rooms are in daily use, while others still need to be developed. Outbuildings, land, and a swimming pool complete the property. ARRIVAL AT THE VALLEY FLOOR Access follows a road that winds down through the woods to the valley floor. The mill is situated on the edge of the millstream, in an open setting of meadows and forest edges. Built around 1650, its proportions and location place it among the hydraulic structures of the Morvan region. The building has been restored in keeping with its original structure. The woodwork has been refurbished, the doors are made of oak, the floors have been insulated, and the utilities have been updated. The entryway leads to a first living area. The living room, featuring a fireplace, opens onto the landscape and extends into a wooden veranda overlooking the garden. The estate spans 2.18 hectares. It includes meadows, wooded areas, and the riverbanks. The Anguison River flows through the property and feeds the mill race, maintaining a direct link to the mill's original operation. THE MECHANISM ROOM In the guesthouse area, the large dining room?designed for receptions and events?is equipped with a professional kitchen and also houses the mill's machinery, which is visible and integrated into the dining space. The machinery remains in place, its operation clearly visible, and directly connects the property's current use to its history. A separate kitchen allows for optimal organization and is currently used for family gatherings. Some rooms are already suitable for extended stays, while others require targeted renovations to ensure the site's long-term sustainability. Outside, a south-facing terrace provides a setting for meals. The swimming pool, situated at a distance above the millrace, creates a second relaxation area used during the season. The possibility of restoring the hydraulic system, meanwhile, ensures tangible continuity. LIVING AND EVOLVING The house features nine rooms, including six bedrooms spread across four levels, allowing it to accommodate several people and maintain the guesthouse operation already in place. Three bathrooms complement this layout. The outbuildings, opposite the house?a former grain loft and a barn?expand the property's capacity. The property, spanning over two hectares, stretches across open areas, riverbanks, and forest edges, offering practical activities such as river fishing, hiking, or outings around Lake Settons. Access to the A6 highway in fifty minutes and the Montbard TGV station in one hour allows for a balance between staying on-site and traveling.

2 h 30 from Paris, an elegant 18th-century maison de maître, its outbuildings and park overlooking the Canal du Nivernais. The landscape is shaped by the confluence of several rivers and the flat towpaths that follow them, a bocage countryside of hedgerows and wooded banks. The property lies near the foothills of the Parc Naturel Régional du Morvan, where woodland gives way to elevated positions with far-reaching views. The village climbs steeply, its narrow stone-lined streets rising to a broad square at the summit, where an 11th-century church, listed in the catalogue of historic monuments, stands opposite the house. Built around 1750 and set behind an ornate gateway, the maison de maître faces west. A enclosed courtyard, flanked on one side by a woodstore and on the other by two outbuildings housing a workshop, a boiler room and a garage, provides vehicle parking. To the south, a walled and planted park overlooks the Canal du Nivernais, including a heritage orchard and a habitable longère. To the north, facing further outbuildings — a small house, shelters and former rabbit hutches — a well-tended kitchen garden extends alongside. A path leads directly to the inner courtyard. A stone well over 25 m deep, fed by a natural spring, supplies water year-round. The maison de maître rises over three levels, its facade enlivened by numerous windows framed by semi-louvred timber shutters. The main entrance is marked by a glazed timber door with a glass fanlight, approached by a small stone perron. The roof, laid in traditional Burgundy flat tiles and restored in 2016, carries several chimney stacks. The ground floor holds the main reception rooms and a first bedroom; the upper levels concentrate the sleeping accommodation: five bedrooms on the first, with three bathrooms or shower rooms, and one very large bedroom with bathroom and dressing room on the second, within the converted upper level. The outbuildings, in stone or brick under traditional or interlocking flat-tile roofs, form a coherent and substantial architectural group.

In the heart of the Morvan region, just minutes from Decize and its amenities, this elegant manor house built in 1776 has weathered the centuries while retaining all its original character. Once home to the director of the ceramics factory that gave the village of Fours its name, the property also served as a military hospital during the First World War. This rich history is still visible in every stone: a massive studded wooden front door adorned with an 18th-century-style bronze knocker, original wooden window frames and shutters, a slate roof, and brick walls. From the through-hall entrance, with its 3-metre ceilings and terracotta-tiled floor, the tone is set: authenticity and volume. The main house roughly 3,900 sq ft of living spaceun folds over two floors of generous reception rooms — including a dining room with an octagonal terracotta and parquet floor, a marble fireplace, and a trumeau mirror — along with 8 bedrooms featuring parquet floors, terracotta tiles, and fireplaces. The property runs an active bed-and-breakfast business, complemented by one independent cottage, for 10 bedrooms in total: The main house has 8 bedrooms, 2 of which form a self-contained guest suite on the ground floor (independent entrance, kitchen, shower room). An independent cottage with wheelchair access, set in a pre-1948 building about 774 sq ft, offers 1 accessible bedroom, a living room, a fitted kitchen, and an adapted shower room. The estate also includes a barn with hayloft (stable, garage, cattle shed), fine vaulted cellars — one fitted out for wine tastings, accessed through a 15th-century door — a barn/shed, a hen house, a fenced 12 x 5 m swimming pool, a terrace, and pergolas covered in vines. The grounds cover approximately 3.2 hectares (about 7.9 acres) of parkland, including 4.2 acres of meadow and roughly 2 acres planted with ornamental trees and an orchard. Two ways to acquire this manor house: With the bed-and-breakfast business up and running — €550,000 The house alone, free of any activity — €460,000
