A 13th and 16th century listed historical monument residence bordering the river and on 2.5 hectares of meadows in north-east Lot-et-Garonne. The discreet, almost mysterious residence is hidden behind a copse of trees, barely visible from the main road. The tarmac drive becomes a stony track as it winds its way between the rows of trees. After passing a pond and a bamboo hedge on the right, followed by the first evidence of the property in the form of two impressive stone pillars, the main driveway leads to two wrought-iron pillars supporting lanterns and to the dwelling. A few well-arranged flagstones guide visitors towards the entrance. The three-storey residence is set near to oak trees and a chestnut tree. To the east, the meadow bordering the garden provides some distance from a few neighbouring houses. On the south side, a meadow stretches as far as the banks of the river Lot below.

An isolated 14th and 17th century castle divided into four homes, in the middle of 34 hectares of land in the Dordogne area, to the northwest of Périgueux. This estate, in the heart of a rural and undulating environment, away from large and medium-sized thoroughfares, is spread out over more than 34 hectares of meadows, organic farmland and woods. The buildings, located in the centre of this land, are surrounded by parkland and boast an inner courtyard, gardens, patios and an approximately 1-hectare orchard. The property benefits from uninterrupted 360° views. It is made up of a main edifice with two wings in an L-shape flanked by an imposing 14th-century round tower where they join, a farm with its various farm buildings near to the passing road and, lastly, set slightly away from the rest, a swimming pool with a view overlooking the surrounding nature. The rubble stone and ashlar façades are mostly rendered, with mainly rectangular doors and windows, some of which have mullions and transoms, while the mainly gabled roofs are made up of half-round or flat tiles. The main entrance to the property is formed by a drive, lined with hundred-year-old trees and a long farm building, that leads to an inner courtyard closed by a gate. A secondary entrance runs alongside a lawned, shaded parking area to the west wing of the castle.

A Belle Epoque villa, with grounds, a swimming pool, outbuildings and a view of the village perched on the hill, at the foot of a royal fortified town in the Lot-et-Garonne area. From the country road and just a few minutes from all essential amenities, a private, 300-metre-long drive forms a lengthy spiral around the property from the north, lined by woods and tall trees, up to the property’s gate, from where the eastern façade of the elegant, late-19th century residence looms into view between the trees and shrubs in the garden. After the entrance gate, the gravelled drive widens before the stoop, allowing visitors to disembark from their vehicles, before continuing to the garages several metres further on. The approximately 350-m² villa stands out thanks to its balanced proportions and immaculate architecture, that of a bourgeois residence, in which the façades are punctuated by regular rows of windows and discrete decorative elements, revealing a carefully thought-out construction. It is made up of a vast kitchen, a lounge, a dining room, six bedrooms and four shower rooms, as well as several service rooms. It pays witness to Belle Epoque period architecture, with its brick and stone, light-coloured rendered walls, inspired by spa town edifices. The large and perfectly aligned windows are fitted with wooden, louvred shutters painted in a warm brown hue that combines well with the decorative details in brick. The gable end is dotted with decorative oculi while the gabled roof is topped by finely crafted ridge cap, giving the building a silhouette that stands out in the Lot-et-Garonne landscape, in the midst of 2.5-hectare grounds boasting tall cedars, oak and ash trees as well as flowering shrubs, in an orderly and harmonious whole. To the south of the house, the stone and wooden outbuildings are made up of a garage, a barn and stables with a riding area. To the west, there is a large patio at the end of which stands a period ornamental balustrade, followed by the swimming pool and view up to the royal fortified village.

A 17th-century charterhouse, its converted outbuildings and small hamlet of dwellings, to be restored, to the north of Périgueux, within the greater Dordogne region. Nestled within verdant countryside, the immense property, with approximately 1.7 entirely enclosed hectares, is surrounded by meadows and woods, which envelop the property within luxuriant vegetation. Accessible via a semi-circular gate, flanked on either side by fencing and supported by four stone pilasters, which opens on to a lane lined with catalpas, multi-century oaks and plane trees, the U-shaped charterhouse is located in the middle of meticulously maintained landscaped grounds planted with a wide variety of trees and shrubs. As for the estate, it also includes several annexe buildings, grouped together like a small hamlet, while the local stone walls, in a palette of white, yellow and pink, help structure the whole by sectioning off the various spaces, buttressing the large patio, demarcating the different entrances and encircling the ponds.

An authentic 18th-century manor house with 4 hectares of grounds in a village within the Chalosse region, in the south of the Landes department, 45 minutes from the ocean. With its origins harking back to the Renaissance and refurbished many times over the centuries, the property’s current group of buildings dates from the 18th century. Lined with protected multi-century trees, a drive leads to the two-storey manor house, which includes two main buildings placed at right angles to one another. Topped with tile hipped roofs, they are cadenced by Renaissance-style small-paned casement windows and flanked by two square towers.

A house steeped in history, from the 14th, 17th and 18th centuries, with a separate garden and barn, in the heart of a bastide in France’s Landes department. The old square Place Royale is picturesque on all four sides: a 12th-century fort-like church stands on one side and arcades forming galleries line rows of houses, which are mostly half-timbered. The village is full of buildings that date back to periods between the 14th and 18th centuries. Almost all of them have been masterfully restored. They are hidden among the countless alleys that form a grid leading to the square. Today, this historical square is a hub for encounters and conviviality, fostered by the presence of several restaurants and a parking ban here. Nearby, artists’ studios and a range of curiosities line medieval streets. For example, there is a Protestant church built in 1607 that has been turned into an exhibition centre. On the square, the house lies opposite the church. The dwelling is known as the most beautiful house in Labastide-d'Armagnac. It has a ground floor, a first floor and a loft that could be converted. It is nestled on the square’s north-east corner, so it has two entrances beneath its galleries: one leads in from the square Place Royale and the other leads in from a side street. The house faces south-east. It stands on the edge of the square, blending harmoniously into its architectural environment. The dwelling is crowned with a roof of monk-and-nun tiling on which a gabled dormer stands. The facade’s upper section, made of brick and lattice-patterned timber framing, rests upon a thick stone wall and solid beams and joists, which are supported by two stone pillars – part of a former gallery of shops. On the first floor, three segmental-arch windows with crosspieces stand behind wrought-iron guardrails. They are fitted with wooden shutters. At the back, on the north side, there is a small terrace on the first floor. Lastly, in line with the house, there are two small rooms in a section with an entrance from outside: a fitness room with a wine cellar and lavatory and a space with a recent oil boiler and its tank.

A renovated limestone dwelling from the 19th century, its guesthouse and barn on 4.5-hectare grounds, perched up on a hill near Tournon-d’Agenais. In the peaceful valleys and hillsides of the Lot-et-Garonne department, the property includes an architectural ensemble that blends in harmoniously with the countryside, where each building was purposefully designed to complement the surrounding landscape. According to tradition, the farms in this region are located far apart from one another, at one time separated by fields, but this property only has one neighbour, practically invisible due to its placement to the north of the grounds behind a stone wall, while, from the house or the garden, located halfway up a hill, one’s gaze is immediately hypnotised by the unobstructed views of the preserved natural landscape: pastures, a few cows, and, further on, the hills of the Pays de Serre. Around the buildings, a cluster of tall trees provides a verdant counterpoint to the stone buildings’ architecture as well as a shady respite, while the dovecote, set back from the two-storey rectangular main dwelling and built out of local stone, represents an impressive element thanks to its balanced aesthetics. As for the barn, also built out of stone, it completes this bucolic tableau in keeping with the former farm’s overall functional and aesthetic feel. Accessible via two separate entrances, each one indicated by a finely crafted gate, which lead to a gravel drive bordered by expertly landscaped Mediterranean vegetation, the property’s grounds are arranged into gentle terraces, with both sunnier and more wooded areas, as well as views of the surrounding countryside, while, in places, low stone walls crop up here and there, subtle vestiges of its former agricultural past.

A country house to be renovated with two barns and one hectare of grounds, nestled in the Périgord Vert region, near the village of Excideuil. The house was built on a hillside, next to a hamlet that spreads along the hill and over the plateau. At ground level, the property’s rear side is edged with a public track that leads to a craftsman’s barn before running along the river. On the other side of the track, a triangular plot of land offers space and light in front of the entrance, ensuring privacy from the house opposite it. Further up the track is a second barn, surrounded by two gardens. It looks over a raised terrace on one side of the house. Two old lime trees cast shade over this raised terrace, which forms an undisturbed sanctuary as it is largely enclosed by a protective ruin and a high stone wall against which an access staircase has been built from scratch. Several steps further down lies the garden level, made up of a vast terrace that overlooks a sheep meadow. Its sweeping 180-degree view takes in the valley, the river and the village. A stone’s throw away, on the plateau, a plot of orchard land that can be built upon is offered as an option. It covers around 1,300m².

A restored 18th-century residence with outbuildings, on 11 hectares of land, like a Provence fortified village, near Agen. A limestone track branches off from a country road and leads on for approximately 150 metres, lined on one side by overhanging crags and on the other by alternating dense foliage as well as meadows below. The narrow, one-way lane splits as it reaches the buildings, with one leading to the residence, while the other curves round to rejoin the road further on. The entrance to the property is marked by a first wrought iron gate, while a second, more imposing, 18th-century one welcomes the visitor opposite the house’s enclosed courtyard. The main façade can be seen behind a small wall topped with wrought iron railings. The two-storey residence is made with ashlar and has been rendered with lime on the southern wing. The hipped roof made of Romanesque tiles is underlined by a double or even triple genoise corbel as well as rainwater gutters. The arrangement on each level of an odd number of windows is symmetrical in its positioning: the ground floor is bathed in light through wide, small-paned windows, while the first floor is dotted with half-moon windows. The window frames are underlined in ochre-coloured tones and fitted with grey painted wooden shutters, providing discrete sophistication to the building as a whole. The main section forms an L-shape with the west wing and boasts a sober and elegant façade at the end of the courtyard. On the ground floor, two windows flank the period, solid wood, 18th-century entrance door. The outbuildings can be found to the east. Over the last twenty years, the current occupants have graced the estate with abundant vegetation that has shaped its character. Following a southern French spirit, Provence cypress, olive, pittosporum and other evergreen trees seem to have belonged to the landscape since time immemorial. They combine with ponds, fountains, statues and other garden ornaments as well as stone walls. A swimming pool has been harmoniously incorporated into the garden.

A small 16th century private mansion, redesigned in the 18th century, with a walled garden, in the heart of the historic market town of Port-Sainte-Marie, in Lot-et-Garonne. A few areas of the medieval town remain, with their half-timbered houses and mullioned windows. Built along the main road that runs upstream along the Garonne, on the city's ancient ramparts, the town centre is carefully maintained by a variety of urban developments designed to unify the architectural heritage. The house is a small private mansion with three storeys on the street side to the north and four storeys on the courtyard side to the south. Opposite the main entrance, a wide terrace runs the full length of the façade, joined by two original, timber-framed walkways overlooking an enclosed, flower-filled garden. The east gallery has a Moroccan-style lounge set in a small flat, which has three large windows; the west gallery, which is entirely open to the outside, leads to a summer dining room. The garden is closed off by a garage that can be easily accessed from a side street. Finally, two passageways under the house lead to cellars and an underground passageway, which was recently closed up. The front façade, accessible from the main street and in dressed stone, was probably standardised in the 19th century. It is open, with its ten large windows and four small ones full of little panes, or its wooden shutters painted in light green that surround an ancient entrance door, also wooden. On the courtyard side, the rear façade features a large cross window on the first floor and pink brickwork on the east side, while the west side features pointed ashlar throughout. On the ground floor, the façade is rendered white. From the terrace, a stone staircase leads down to the garden, both the terrace and stairs have simple wrought-iron railings. The building is semi-detached on its west side, and opens onto a lane via another door with access to the cellars on the east side. All parts of the house are covered with single or double-sloped interlocking or canal tile roofs.

A 300-m² sumptuous flat in a 19th-century Italianate palace, with exceptional views of the Pyrenees Mountains, in the capital of the historical region of Béarn. The palace, built out of stone between 1880-1886 and rectangular in shape, faces south and is flanked by a tower to the west as well as an immense greenhouse to the east. Italianate in style and influenced by neo-Renaissance architecture, like the Osborne House, a summer residence for Queen Victoria, the central building has four storeys, while the tower has five. With a colonnade running along the top storey of the central building’s southern and northern exteriors, it is topped with a rooftop terrace safeguarded by a stone balustrade. As for the southern exterior, facing the garden, a double staircase (added in the 1910s) in Carrare marble, provides access to the peristyle terrace, supported by four caryatids depicting the seasons. Completely symmetrical in appearance and cadenced by tall rectangular windows surrounded by ornately sculpted décor, as well as columns, pilasters, friezes and other types of exuberant ornamental details, its southern exterior also features a gently protruding central row of windows, preceded by the peristyle. Originally with 4.6 hectares, the estate is enclosed by tall stone walls and accessible via two immense gates – one of which is decorated with bronze statuettes – each one located next to a caretaker’s cottage. Between 1902 and 1905, the architects Martinet and Rigault added a couple of follies throughout the property, such as an artificial spring and a temple to Diane, built out of reinforced concrete, whereas, in 1954, the grounds were divided up in large part in order to create a housing estate, the villa was split into magnificent flats and its garden was reduced to 8,200 m². Among these flats, the property in question, located on the first floor, is extended by a terrace and a balcony facing south and includes an entrance hall, four bedrooms, two living rooms, a study, a kitchen and two bathrooms, all featuring noble materials and meticulously decorated in a one-of-a-kind style, from the floor to the ceiling. Last, but not least, the common areas mainly include an entrance hall and a massive staircase in Carrare marble, with balustrades and columns also in white marble.

A noble Renaissance-era dwelling, its holiday cottage and outbuildings in a 2-hectare enclosed park overlooking the valley, within the Périgord Blanc region. Dating from the 15th, 16th and 18th centuries, the property stands on a hillside, protected by woodlands to the south and overlooking the valley to the north and west. The high north end walls of the main edifice, with sparse openings, the buttresses and the round tower of the current guest house testify to the fact that this was once a fortified castle. A tree-lined driveway leads from the entrance gate to the noble residence, while a track running alongside the tennis court meets the outbuildings and a swimming pool at the bottom of a slope. A barely visible lap pool is perfectly embedded in the park surrounding the complex. The residence is framed by two enclosed spaces, each offering a breathtaking view: the courtyard where the main entrance is located, a well topped by a pyramid-shaped roof, an outbuilding used as a garden shed, a hangar for vehicles, as well as a pool facing a low pilaster and dressed stone wall. All of these are accessed via a carriage gate, a pedestrian gate and a recently installed gate. On the other side of the residence, the lawned garden with bountiful flowers features a summer dining area under a covered patio.

A medieval dwelling, listed as a Historical Monument, with a swimming pool and tennis court, near an 18-hole golf course and surrounded by 112 hectares, including 7 hectares of Protected Designation of Origin vineyards, near Saint-Emilion. Extending on from the Saint-Emilion plateau, the property is located in the heights of the Castillon-Côtes-de-Bordeaux appellation region, overlooking the Dordogne valley. Set back from the village, it takes advantage of its privileged position, which ensures great privacy as well as views of the valley’s remarkable environment and the surrounding vineyards and meadows. At the end of a village, the property is accessible via a private road bordered by vineyards, which then branches off into two lanes, providing access to the large wine storehouse off to one side, built during the Second French Empire, as well as, on the right, a small tenant farmer’s house, followed by several outbuildings, mostly grouped around an open courtyard, near a swimming pool and a tennis court. As for the property, it extends over more than 112 hectares of land, vineyards and forests, while vast landscaped grounds surround the medieval chateau. The latter’s partial inclusion on the list of historical monuments mentions the protection of the 14th-century dwelling, its four towers, entrance pavilion with its staircase turret, exteriors and rooftops of the other buildings that compose the edifice as well as those for the Second Empire wine storehouses, with the exclusion of the outbuildings to the west. Lastly, the contiguous vineyards guarantee great regularity for the estate’s wine production. Exclusively planted on clay-limestone hills, they benefit from natural drainage and excellent sunlight thanks to their mostly southwest exposure.

An estate to be restored, with outbuildings and 4.5 hectares of meadows and vines, 45 minutes from Bordeaux, on the outskirts of a village in the Gironde area. The estate is located in the heights of the village of which it is part, near to a street that runs past it. However, it is sufficiently far from any form of noise pollution. An earthen drive running past an hedge of hornbeams leads directly to it. The property is not fenced or walled, which would be superfluous, given the location set back from the road, the natural protective screen formed by the vineyards as well as the peace and quiet of the area. It is located in a semi-rural area, on mainly flat land, as is the case for the surrounding villages, standing between the Garonne River and its canal. This massive and noble stone residence with a tiled roof can be seen from the road, partially hidden by the estate’s rows of vines. It is made up of a rectangular main building with an adjoining, one-storey outbuilding set at a right angle to it, to the right-hand side of the house, on the eastern side, which is used as a store and a garage. Opposite, a hut houses the water pumping system, very near to the well. The grounds, including several hundred-year-old trees and notably a cedar planted in 1875 as well as copses of more recently planted shrubs, is made up of lawns stretching from the walls of the house to the vines to the northeastern side of the property. They account for approximately a third of the 4.3-hectare estate. The rest is made up of two plots of cultivated vines, separated by a tarmac road. The property has been in the same family since 1844 and is a recognised element of the region’s heritage, as proved by its classification as a picturesque site for the last 50 years by the local authorities.

A medieval castle rebuilt in the 19th century, with a historical wine estate, near Bordeaux, in a village in the Côtes de Bourg sector. The property is dominated by the chateau, which is the main building on the estate and which stands out thanks to its emblematic tower. It is accompanied by several houses, which are conducive to a wide variety of uses and suitable for residential or hospitality projects. The estate also boasts comprehensive infrastructures, with a winery, blending cellar, a vat house equipped with concrete vats, a barrel cellar and storage cellars. Agricultural buildings, warehouses and workshops complete this coherent property, enabling immediate transmission of wine-making activity. The thriving and well-maintained vineyard has been recently replanted and boasts a terroir conducive to environmentally friendly wine-making. The entire estate has plenty of wine tourism potential, in a peaceful and lush setting, ideal for developing accommodation solutions, tasting facilities or zones dedicated to the Bordeaux lifestyle.
