Between Tours and Vendôme, a fully renovated former mill, with outbuildings and 1.3-hectare tree-filled grounds. From the centre of the village, a narrow street leads to the property. 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.

Just 1 hour and 30 minutes from Paris, in the small Sologne region, an old wine estate has been redeveloped within an 1.8-hectare park overlooking the vineyards. The access to the property is preceded by vast expanses of forests, ponds, and vineyard plots. The estate, located on a gentle hill, overlooks the vineyards. Three distinct entrances marked by double gates lead to the main house, the park, and the outbuildings. A driveable path gradually ascends towards the houses through the well-kept park, planted with tall stems of various and colorful species, revealing some resting areas with seating and ornaments, vases, and stone statues. The main house is bordered by a stone terrace on its north façade. Small brick walls delineate floral flowerbeds. Close to the wine cellar, there stands an old icehouse buried under vegetation. A delicate place that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. Several outdoor locations, covered with stone paving, allow for full enjoyment of the site.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A renovated village house with authentic charm, a guesthouse and a tree-dotted garden full of flowers, nestled in the south of France’s Touraine province. The property’s two houses share a courtyard and garden on a walled plot that covers around 1,100m². From a village road that runs alongside the main house, a low wooden gate leads onto a drive that takes you to a courtyard between the two dwellings. From a village square, a second gate, which is tall, made of wrought iron and framed between tuffeau stone pillars, leads onto a gravelled driveway that takes you into the garden. The different buildings are separate from one another. They face east and west. There is a main dwelling, a guesthouse and a small outbuilding. Exposed stonework forms the elevations, dressed tuffeau stone forms the window and door surrounds and flat tiles cover the roofs. Each building has a terrace. In front of the guesthouse, there is a lush lawn embellished with many clusters of flowering plants and dotted with trees.

A renovated 15th-century manor, with an outbuilding and 1.5-hectare grounds, located near the birthplace of Ronsard in the Loir River Valley. Dating from the Renaissance, the property, neither a national or regional historical monument, is currently located in a protected area and originally formed a hamlet with the surrounding enclosed properties. From a small country lane, a drive leads to one of the property’s five separate entrances. Once past the main entrance, there is a small pavilion, which was converted into a guesthouse, followed by the two-storey, rectangular manor house. Originally from the 15th century, its central building is topped with a local tile gable roof and punctuated by tall cross-windows. Flanked on one side by a stairway tower with a modillion frieze and a slate roof, on the manor’s other gable end, stands a more modest one-storey building topped with an ancient tile roof. With plaster-coated walls, the manor is decorated with an ashlar stone cornice under the eaves as well as tuffeau stone window and door surrounds. In addition, the frames for the house’s single- or double-glazed cross-windows have all been replaced and are safeguarded by interior shutters. Behind the house, 14 cellars have been hollowed out of the hillside, some of which once contained mushroom beds of varying depths. According to local legend, they also once communicated with the nearby Possonnière manor house where Pierre de Ronsard was born. Lastly, the property’s grounds also include a formal garden, an Italian-inspired garden, a landscaped garden, pinewoods, a dry riverbed and a pasture.

A charming village dwelling with an interior courtyard, farmhouse and garden, along the banks of a river, in a lively village not far from the chateau of Chambord . Located in the middle of a village, but well enough set back in order to be immersed in total peace and quiet, the property, enclosed by old walls and hedges, is sheltered from view and completely invisible from the street. Turned towards its interior courtyard with an annexe farmhouse, followed by a garden, which descends towards the Beuvron, the famous river of Sologne, the house is accessible either directly from the street or via a pathway – with a deed of easement – through the next-door property, which leads to the interior courtyard. As for the main dwelling, with a floor area of approximately 192 m², it is built out of stone and covered with an old tile roof, while the courtyard, with nearly 400 m², includes several annexe buildings, such as a woodshed, storage rooms, a climate-controlled wine cellar, as well as a farmhouse with approximately 110 m² that faces a landscaped garden. It should be noted that all of the buildings are in excellent condition and still bear many of their ancient decorative details. In addition, another building, located on the other side of the street and facing the main dwelling, is large enough to accommodate several vehicles, while an upstairs floor of approximately 60 m², awaits its reconversion.

A 19th-century chateau with outhouses, a chapel and a lake, nestled in 30 hectares of grounds in the south of France’s Touraine province. The seigneurial home that was built here on the ruins of a medieval mansion, of which no vestiges remain, was endlessly redesigned until it collapsed in 1860. In 1890, the decision was made to rebuild the edifice on the site. A renowned architect, Louis-Alfred Trolliet, a specialist in the reconstruction of chateaux, was entrusted with this task. He was responsible for the edifice you can see here today. Trolliet was nicknamed ‘the Viollet-le-Duc of the Berry province’ in a nod to the famous 19th-century French architect Eugène Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc who restored many medieval monuments. Trolliet won his spurs as a leading figure of the Troubadour style in French architecture with his restoration of the Château de Romefort in the town of Ciron. To rebuild the present property, he did not adopt the Troubadour style but rather the style of the Loire Valley chateaux that was also in vogue at the time. Trolliet opted for a long rectangular dwelling crowned with tall hipped roofs of slate tiles recalling the Château de Chenonceau and the Château d’Azay-le-Rideau. The grand edifice comes into view once you have gone through the entrance gate and made your way up the long central drive punctuated symmetrically with topiary box shrubs neatly clipped into cones. The château faces east and west. Its main section has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. The adjoining square tower has a third floor in its roof space. The symmetrical elevations are rendered and punctuated with large small-paned windows fitted with wooden louvred shutters that are painted sky blue. Gabled dormers punctuate the roof of the main section and that of the square tower. Beyond the château, the drive crosses dense woodland on this estate, which covers around 30 hectares and includes a 1.2-hectare lake. Trolliet also decided to build two large lodges as foreparts of the château exactly opposite it. These two buildings are rectangular. They have a ground floor and a first floor. A third lodge stands at a right angle to one of them. This third structure has an eclectic style and recalls a train station. On the south side, a circular dovecote with a cone roof of terracotta tiles adorns the grounds. On the east side, there is a heated swimming pool. Behind the outhouses, a secondary entrance leads to a gravelled car park. Lastly, on the north-west side, there is a private lake. In the middle of this lake there is a small tree-dotted island.

A stately 18th-century property with outbuildings, a swimming pool and landscaped grounds, in a residential neighbourhood on the outskirts of Tours. Nestled within a residential neighbourhood in a town along the banks of the Cher, the dwelling is situated on carefully maintained landscaped grounds of nearly 4,500 m², planted with plenty of trees and flowers, which includes a large covered patio, swimming pool, greenhouse and two outbuildings. From the street, the property is accessible via a wrought-iron gate supported by two stone pillars, which opens onto a gravel drive that runs alongside part of the grounds and one of the dwelling’s wings, in the direction of the two outbuildings used for vehicle parking. As for the U-shaped, two-storey dwelling, composed of an 18th-century central building framed by two wings, it surrounds, in the back, a grassy courtyard, scattered with pruned box trees, and accessible via an opening flanked by two tuffeau stone pillars on either side, which are then extended by low stone walls. With tall rectangular, small-paned windows, the house’s tuffeau stone exteriors are topped by a slate gable roof, which is, in turn, crowned by gable dormer windows, whereas its eastern wing includes a large picture window, in the same style, as well as several additional rectangular windows. Last, but not least, the dwelling’s interior has been well conserved with hardwood floors, fireplaces, wood panelling and tuffeau stone walls, while the eastern wing’s gable end has been converted into a garage, the plaster-coated rubble stone exterior of which is accessible via wooden double doors.

On the outskirts of Amboise, in a dominant position, a 17th-century manor, its outbuildings, and its park of 2.5 hectares. The manor and its park, supported by powerful retaining walls, overlook the Loire Valley. Access by car is through a monumental gate. Built in the 17th century and modified in the 19th century, the main house is preceded by a courtyard. Located in the northwest corner, the building occupies an L-shaped plan, with each wing extended by a pavilion slightly projecting. The whole is raised over two levels, topped by a mansard roof illuminated by dormer windows. The façades, rendered and adorned with stone corner chains, are pierced by large openings, protected by shutters. A few bull's-eye windows punctuate the façade. On the garden side, the openings are flanked by solid shutters or fitted with bars. The roof of the central wing is made of fibrociment, while that of the side pavilions is made of slate.In front, a set of outbuildings is backed against the rock that gave its name to the estate. A French garden extends from a terrace to a pleasure pavilion. The rest of the park has a rural atmosphere, with a pasture overlooked by a wooded area.This description has been automatically translated from French.

In Touraine, a 16th-century manor rehabilitated by J.-B. Astier de Villatte, along with its guest house, ornamental garden, and swimming pool. Accessible through a large oak door leading to a paved courtyard, the house is built of tuffeau over three levels, topped with a gabled roof of tiles and flanked on its east side by an imposing staircase tower. Built in the 16th century on older foundations, the residence underwent a complete rehabilitation at the end of the 2000s by Jean-Baptiste Astier de Villatte. The volumes have been rethought, while some openings have been modified or created to refine the perspectives and light inputs. The walls, plastered with lime, are punctually covered with enamel tiles, a signature of the decorative architect. The French-style ceilings, painted and delicately floral, converse with terracotta tiled floors, with shapes and patterns specifically designed for each room. Custom oak joinery is created, while furniture is designed, manufactured, and installed specifically for the space. At the rear of the house, on the garden side, a large tuffeau barn, topped with a slate roof, opens at the end of a paved stone path from Chauvigny. The restoration here is decidedly contemporary, with large volumes bathed in light thanks to wide openings with metal frames. The floors are laid with tomettes and the doors and frameworks are in oak. Between the two bodies of buildings, a classic-inspired garden structures the perspectives. It is planted with cypress trees, olive trees, rose bushes, and fruit trees. It organizes the transition to a relaxation space between the terrace, pool, and lawn. The property also includes two vaulted cellars, a well, and two outbuildings.This description has been automatically translated from French.

In the Berry countryside, a 16th-century manor surrounded by moats and its 22-hectare estate. From a small country road, a private driveway leads to the property, which is set away from any immediate neighbors. The house gradually reveals itself amidst meadows and ancient trees, including a towering hundred-year-old cedar. Dated from the 16th century and rising two levels topped with attics, the manor is built of coated masonry, reinforced at the corners and around the openings by frames made of barite stone, extracted from nearby quarries. The building is flanked by two towers. The entire structure is crowned with a steep roof covered with flat tiles for the main house and slate for the four-sided tower. The other tower, circular, rises two levels and is topped with a conical slate roof. Many openings are protected by painted wooden shutters. To the south and west of the manor, four outbuildings with simple volumes and two-pitched tile roofs recall the estate's former agricultural vocation. Two of them are converted into housing and a guesthouse, while the other two are used as storage or workshops. The entire manor is surrounded by moats, some of which still hold water. The estate covers approximately 22 hectares in one piece, consisting mainly of meadows, a nearly 6-hectare wood, and a pond.This description has been automatically translated from French.

20 minutes to the east of Tours, a former outbuilding, transformed into a pleasant family home with a garden. An iron gate opens from the street onto a gravelled parking area that leads up to the courtyard in front of the entrance to the house on one side and to the garden at the foot of the slope on the other side. This former outbuilding has been fully transformed and was enhanced by an extension in 2005. While outside only the brick window frames and a part of the building pay witness to its past, inside the partially exposed stone walls are well-preserved and combine with modern architecture. It has been designed as a family home, with six bedrooms ready to welcome new occupants, large west-facing windows and a vast reception room that opens onto the garden. There are three cellars in the hill slope and a flight of steps leads to a wooded area at its summit.

Located 1 hour and 30 minutes from Paris, in a village in the northern Loiret, a fully renovated character house, its garden, and its outbuildings. Built in the 19th century, in 1850, the property bears witness to an ancestral agricultural tradition, focused on vineyards and saffron. In the village, several homes with monumental doors evoke life from times past, before the rise of cereal and fodder crops. Access to the house, situated on a small square set back from the main street, is through one of these imposing porches or through a door that opens directly into the living house. The porch serves as a link between this house and two outbuildings, forming an L-shape on a plot of approximately 600 m². A small terrace, an enclosed garden with walls, and a perfectly functioning well complete the property. The facade was built with stone rubble joined with lime. Its wooden semicircular windows are placed on decorative columns topped with capitals. Approximately 180 m² in size, it is raised over two levels topped with attics under beams, shaping an L at one corner of the lot. A lower extension is occupied by a kitchen. The interior has undergone careful restoration in recent years to provide comfort and modernity, with home automation for heating and alarm, while preserving old elements: exposed stone and beams, stone fireplace, cast iron radiators.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A château and outbuildings with potential for 50 bedrooms, in the heart of the châteaux of the Loire Valley, 2 hours from Paris. Close to the surrounding walls, the property begins with its imposing 17th and 18th century château, which is extended by a 16th century wing with a chapel attached to it. The outbuildings, grouped around a vast shaded courtyard, consist of a large number of buildings which were either renovated or rebuilt in 1968. From the château, the view stretches first down into the grounds and then, beyond the surrounding wall, to the River Loire. To the side of the château, a vast grassy area extends into the woods, towards the ancient castle mound. There is a vast vegetable garden below. The grounds cover a total of 17 hectares.

A chateau made of tuffeau stone, with outhouses, a swimming pool, a tennis court and almost 4.5 hectares of grounds, just a few minutes from the city of Tours. From a narrow one-way road, an iron gate between two tuffeau stone pillars leads onto a driveway. This drive runs through a wood to a parking area beside a vast lawn. On one side stands the south-facing chateau. The first references to the edifice date back to the 15th century, but the chateau in its current form dates back to 1720. The chateau was severely damaged in the Second World War, but was later rebuilt. It is made of tuffeau stone. The edifice has a central main section with a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. This main section has a huge triangular pediment with a bull’s-eye window in the middle. It is crowned with a hipped slate roof. On the garden side, the roof has four arched dormers with volute ailerons. And on the other side, there are three gabled dormers facing the inner courtyard. On the south side, a flight of steps leads up to a broad terrace edged with finely crafted stone balusters. The east wing is made of rubble stone coated with rendering. It has a ground floor and a first floor in the roof space. The roof is a mansard slate roof. On its garden side, this roof is punctuated with dormers that are identical in style to those on the main section’s roof. On its courtyard side, it has two dormers with triangular pediments between two arched dormers. The other windows of the east wing are of different shapes and sizes and are fitted in tuffeau stone surrounds. A large covered entrance area with a paved floor leads to the inner courtyard. Opposite, there is a west wing: a single-storey structure made of tuffeau stone. Its facade is punctuated with three wooden double doors. This wing has a three-slope slate roof. At the back, the inner courtyard is framed between two wings. This outdoor space extends, over different levels, across a terraced garden up to two small towers: a chapel and a former dovecote. The grounds cover almost 4.5 hectares. They are dotted with trees of different varieties. Paths lead to the swimming pool and outhouses on one side and to a tennis court and a small log cabin on the other side. There are several bubble-like treehouses in the trees.

In the center of Tours, between courtyard and garden, a 19th-century townhouse and its converted annexes. The building dates from 1850. Located on a one-way street, it is built over three levels, including a converted attic, on a cellar. To the west, on the street side, the facade made of light brick and tuffeau decorations features six rectangular openings. At the first level, they frame a double arched wooden carriage door and an opening with a triangular pediment supported by sculpted consoles. At the second level, protruding from the carriage door, a corbelled balcony with a wrought iron railing adds rhythm to the facade. It is complemented by a cornice with dentils and corbels, beneath a slate roof. At the third level, two dormer windows with curved arches punctuate the roof. On the garden side, the annexes are covered with wooden cladding, and the roofs are made of zinc and slate. The interior spaces are bright, with light wooden floors and white walls. The house at the back opens onto a landscaped courtyard with converted annex buildings and a small garden.

A 16th-century, three-storey house, exuding understated elegance, in the historical city centre of Orléans. The house was built in the 16th century on a street next to the Orléans Cathedral. Over the years, shops, taverns and neighbourhood boutiques have been transformed into dwellings, while the street on which the house stands was one of the first streets in Orléans to be paved and pedestrianised. Today, you can park a vehicle beneath the cathedral, less than 50 metres away. As for the rectangular dwelling, which stands on the corner and is topped with a slate gable roof, it has kept its original architecture and features four storeys over a vaulted cellar. Facing east and north, its understated and partially asymmetrical exteriors are covered in plaster with ashlar stone window/door surrounds and quoins, whereas an old wooden door and rectilinear windows, in an array of sizes, fitted with colourful stained glass or small panes, cadence the first three floors of the dwelling.

In Touraine, on a wooded estate of 45 ha with a pond, a long house to restore, and its outbuildings. At the edge of a wood, an avenue leads to the house, hidden behind large trees. Facing south, the main facade is rendered, with stone chainings and a two-sided slate roof, pierced by four Jacobin dormer windows. The ground floor windows and French doors, framed with small-paned joinery, are protected by wooden shutters. Two garages are closed off with wooden doors, partially glazed at the top, topped with slate cladding. On the north side, ventilation dormers or doghouse windows provide additional lighting. The interior needs complete reorganization. On the side, an outbuilding closes the courtyard. An old well is still visible. The estate covers approximately 45 ha, primarily wooded, surrounded by neighboring fields. A 1.5 ha pond occupies one end of the estate.This description has been automatically translated from French.

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.

Just 20 minutes from Tours and a few kilometers from a sought-after town, an 18th-century longhouse and its outbuildings, on nearly 5 hectares of land. A path leads to the property between meadows and wooded areas, away from other homes but close to two lively towns. A long tree-lined driveway crosses a meadow to the barn's porch. The longhouse then reveals itself, behind a vast green courtyard that serves three buildings. A typical construction of the Touraine region, the main house, made of rubble under a tiled roof pierced with dormer windows, is raised over two levels. The spacious reception rooms on the ground floor have retained their original features, while four bedrooms and two bathrooms occupy the attic. A guest house includes two rooms and a shower room. A barn is divided into two spaces.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Near Loches, in a historic town of Touraine, an old abbatial residence listed as a historical monument (MH), along with its enclosed garden and canal. At the center of the town, the MH-listed house probably dates back to the 14th century. It served as the residence of a Benedictine abbey, the buildings of which from the 18th century still face it. Raised over two levels, the structure features a tall and wide gable with roundels, adorned with a "trumpet of Montpellier," and its stone corbel. The slate roof is characteristic of constructions from the 15th and 16th centuries. The main facade, perpendicular to the street, opens onto the garden, accessible through a gate. The openings vary in size, and two square turrets flank the building, one of which is topped with a slate roof with four slopes. On the street side, an old wing is constructed of dressed stone masonry, under a single-slope roof with flat tiles. The north facade and the gable facing the canal, also with roundels, have clearly been modified in the 17th century, with the creation of three large openings per level, in an effort to harmonize with a "new" wing from the same period, which is now a separate property. A small canal runs along the property.
