Manor Azay-le-Rideau (37)

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.

Castle Aubigny-sur-Nère (18)

Ref.4341: Beautiful property for sale in the french Centre area. On the borders of the Sologne and Pays-Fort Sancerrois regions, in the department of Cher, stands the silhouette of this beautiful 19th-century masterpiece. Strategically located in the centre of France, it is within easy reach of the capital (185 km), the first ski resorts (Clermont-Ferrand, 230 km) and Switzerland (Geneva, 410 km). More locally, towns such as Aubigny sur Nère have all the shops and services you need. The town also has a bread depot. The pleasant town of Aubigny sur Nère boasts a rich historical past, as evidenced by its castle, which earned it the name of ‘City of the Stuarts’. It was in 1421, following a Franco-Scottish victory at the Battle of Baugé, that the Dauphin, the future King Charles VII, donated the seigneury of Aubigny to Lord John Stuart of Darnley to thank him for lending him a helping hand. Later, his descendant Robert Stuart built the castle that bears his name, which today houses the Auld Alliance Interpretation Centre. This handsome castle, with its imposing stance, reveals living spaces that are human in scale and easy to use. Facing north-south, it comprises a central body built of brick and dressed stone chainwork topped with a slate gable roof, flanked on either side by two symmetrical pavilions of the same style. With almost 900 sqm of living space, the castle comprises two stories over a basement, with an attic that can be converted as follows: Ground floor: a vast hallway of approx. 60 sqm with 3.8 m (9.9 ft) high ceilings leads to a dining room with a fireplace to the east, followed by a lovely, luminous kitchen. To the north is a study and to the west, a billiards room and a lounge. A dressing room, wc and two stairwells (main and secondary) complete this first level. On the first floor, a long corridor leads to 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms or shower rooms, some with wc. Attic above. Full basement with games room, fitness room, cinema room, boiler room, laundry room, swimming pool room, woodshed and storage space. The outbuildings: To the south-east of the château, with private access, a house of around 300 m² offers interesting potential. Now divided into 3 dwellings, it is currently being renovated: A first flat on the ground floor with a large living room, utility room and bathroom. A second flat on two levels with a living room with open-plan kitchen, utility room and toilet on the ground floor, and 4 bedrooms, a bathroom and toilet on the first floor. A third and final flat on the first floor with a living room and open-plan kitchen, 3 bedrooms and a shower room with toilet. To the north is a large hangar of approx. 300 m² used as a garage, which could also be used for other projects. Finally, to the east, an 11x5 m heated chlorine swimming pool with a pleasant pool house equipped with a kitchenette/bar, sanitary facilities and a terrace promises pleasant moments of relaxation. In a quiet, discreet setting, in the heart of 32 acres of grounds, the château enjoys a dominant position with uninterrupted views over the countryside. To the south of the chateau is a beautiful English-style parkland, perfectly maintained and planted with numerous trees of varying species. To the north, a forest has been converted into a racetrack and a young plantation of 1,000 vines completes this homogeneous ensemble. All of this forms a natural ring around the château, separating it from the neighbouring cereal crops and meadows and giving it all the privacy expected of such a residence.

There is a ground floor, two upstairs floors with corbelling and a third floor in the roof space. A spiral staircase links the levels together. Apart from the top floor, each level is taken up by a single room. On the ground floor, there is, on one side, a large front window – the token of a former shop here. And on the other side, there are two studded wooden entrance doors: one leads straight to the house and the other one leads to a corridor that takes you to the neighbouring house at the back. Small-paned casement windows, probably enlarged in the 18th or 19th century, bring natural light into the upstairs floors. On the third floor, two gabled dormers frame a hipped dormer, which is bigger, upon a slate roof. The back windows look out at the court of a neighbouring townhouse.

House Maintenon (28)

1 hour and 15 minutes west of Paris, between Chartres and Rambouillet, a restored 17th-century village house and its enclosed garden. The street-facing facade, made of dressed stone, limestone rubble, and flint, is two stories high under a gabled roof with flat tiles, pierced by a hanging dormer. Invisible from the street, another zinc roof extends over the rest of the house. Two openings protected by green wooden shutters punctuate the facade on the elevated ground floor, sheltered from view due to the slope of the street. A small semicircular wooden door leads directly to a vaulted double cellar, while another, larger, oak-panelled door conceals a small walled garden where the entrance to the house is found.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Castle Valençay (36)

Located 2.5 hours from Paris, in the land of Talleyrand, a completely restored manor, its heated pool, and its garden. A poplar avenue leads to the manor, surrounded by meadows and woods. Dating from the 15th century, it features the characteristic silhouette of typical Berry dwellings. The building is two stories high, under a steep roof of flat tiles. On one side, a square tower with a four-pitched roof has been recently added, in keeping with the rest of the building. On the opposite corner, a round tower topped with a pepperpot roof is original. A veranda connects the main body to a lower return wing. The courtyard facade, coated, is pierced with small-paned cross windows. A bay window with angled glass precedes the central door. The entire property, currently operated as guest rooms, has been carefully restored. The pool is next to a pavilion with a living room and kitchen, as well as a summer dining room. The park of approximately 1.3 hectares is open to the surrounding countryside.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Castle Blois (41)

A manor with holiday cottages, reception rooms, all fully renovated, in landscaped grounds, 15 minutes from Blois, in the middle of the countryside. This vast complex of buildings, set in an enclosed park covering 8 hectares, has recently undergone a complete and high-quality restoration. The Renaissance manor, which is dominated by its staircase tower, has retained its original character. Set perpendicularly, there is a long series of outbuildings housing three holiday cottages. A barn has been converted into a reception room, as has a nearby modern, glazed greenhouse with a roof. Two other holiday cottages complete the considerable accommodation capacity of this property. The swimming pool to the rear is set in a fenced in area. Slightly further away, exhibition spaces have been created in glazed metal modules. They form a modern cloister, which could easily be repurposed, particularly for receptions. The grounds are partially enclosed behind high walls and towers, of which the walls are listed as a historical monument. The wooded grounds include shaded trails.

House with pool Anet (28)

One hour west of Paris, on the border of Eure and Yvelines, there is an impressive contemporary manor and its garden spanning over 1 hectare. Built at the center of the park, at the end of a path lined with apple trees, the residence consists of a main body and two asymmetrical wings returning at right angles. Raised over two levels and flanked by two square towers, the dwelling is punctuated by numerous windows and dormer windows. The building is organized around a courtyard paved with large slabs, where a heated swimming pool has been set up. The roofs are made of flat tiles, topped with glazed ceramic finials representing animals. These ornaments come from the potteries of Mesnil-de-Bavent, a renowned Norman factory. The façades are made of fieldstone, enhanced with Vosges sandstone around the window frames and at the corners, while the gutters and downspouts are made of copper. Some of the construction materials come from the old farmhouse that once occupied this land: the stones, tiles, and framework have been salvaged, sorted, and reused. The north wing includes a barn of about 100 m², with an automatic door. In the garden, near the bank, a brick house of about 50 m², raised over two levels, currently serves as a storage place.This description has been automatically translated from French.
