THE PRIORATE OF L'ÉTOILE ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF LONS-LE-SAUNIER Just a few minutes from the town center, in a preserved setting, this 18th-century priory showcases carefully restored stone architecture. The rooms open onto a wooded park dotted with ancient trees, a pond, and serene views. The house is equally suited to family life and entertaining, supported by a warm and inviting atmosphere. AN ANCIENT PRESENCE, ROOTED IN THE LANDSCAPE In the heart of a quiet village in the Jura, Le Prieuré is part of a historical continuity that is evident from the moment you approach. The stone, weathered by time, captures the light and reveals facades with balanced proportions. The whole is organized with clarity, in a slightly commanding position, open to the surrounding nature. Inside, the materials interact. Old hardwood floors, terracotta tiles, beams, and generous ceiling heights create an atmosphere where each space seems to extend a memory. The floor-to-ceiling windows allow light to flow from east to west, accompanying the rhythms of the day. A HOME FOR LIVING AND SHARING The rooms flow seamlessly around a spacious living area, designed to welcome guests. The layout invites both gathering and privacy, with living rooms, bedrooms, and more intimate spaces. In the billiard room, a unique feature catches the eye and seems to freeze time: a rare 18th-century frieze, of which only a few examples remain in the world, unfolds its patterns with delicacy. It lends this space an almost museum-like quality, without disrupting the home's lively harmony. A bedroom on the ground floor extends this sense of immediate comfort, while the upper floors suggest multiple uses, ranging from family life to entertaining. Set apart, the spaces dedicated to well-being extend the experience. A heated indoor pool occupies a separate area, accompanied by a sauna and a summer kitchen that opens onto the stone terrace. Here, the seasons are experienced differently, in a gentle continuity between indoors and outdoors. A LIVING PARK, BETWEEN BREATHING SPACE AND ROOTS The nearly one-hectare lot unfolds with simplicity. Centuries-old trees create zones of shade and light, punctuated by an ornamental pond and open vistas. The orchard and grassy areas complement a lifestyle oriented toward the outdoors, balancing contemplation with daily living. Just minutes from amenities and major thoroughfares, the property retains a sense of seclusion, maintaining just the right distance from the world. It appeals to those seeking a place to call home as much as a place to envision their future, striking a balance between deep roots and a sense of freedom. AGENCY'S OPINION This priory house combines history and quality of life in a rare balance. The use of stone, the spacious volumes, and certain unique decorative elements come together to create a place designed to endure, welcome, and pass on a legacy.

RENOVATED OLD FARMHOUSE ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF ORNANS In the heart of the Ornans region, this old farmhouse dating from 1734 showcases a renovation that respects its original character. Behind its stone walls, generous rooms, open spaces, and natural materials come together to create a home where you can rediscover the joys of country living. The separate apartment, outbuildings, and potential for expansion open the door to numerous possibilities, ranging from a family home to a vacation home or a guesthouse. THE AUTHENTICITY OF A COMTOISE FARM, REVISITED Just a few minutes from Ornans, Chassagne-Saint-Denis embodies the gentle charm characteristic of the villages on the first plateau. Tucked away at the end of a discreet cul-de-sac, this former farmhouse, built in 1734, blends seamlessly into the landscape. The renovation has preserved the soul of the place. The exposed stone walls evoke the building's history, while the open, airy spaces offer a more contemporary interpretation of the layout. The living room features high ceilings, extended by a mezzanine that channels light into the heart of the home. The fireplace and authentic materials create a warm atmosphere where every moment becomes an immersive experience. The 192 m² of living space includes four bedrooms, one of which is on the ground floor, two bathrooms, and two kitchens, allowing for a variety of lifestyles?whether for family life or extended stays. SPACES THAT INVITE YOU TO IMAGINE NEW PROJECTS This property also stands out for everything it offers beyond the main residence. The adjoining barn, workshop, wine cellar, garage, and nearly 100 m² of convertible attic space present significant potential for future development. The existing spaces allow for both expanding the living area and creating new spaces dedicated to leisure or a business venture. The separate two-bedroom apartment serves as a natural extension of the property. It currently accommodates family and friends with complete independence and also opens up the possibility of operating it as a vacation rental?a particularly fitting option in this region, which is sought after for its landscapes, heritage, and quality of life. Each outbuilding thus contributes to the richness of the property without ever detracting from its character. A LIFE CENTERED ON NATURE ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF ORNANS Outside, the 1,389 m² landscaped garden extends the home. The spacious stone terrace is perfect for sunny days and offers an ideal setting for sharing meals or simply enjoying the tranquility of the countryside.

Here, the landscapes of the Ornans region offer a succession of valleys, forests, and charming villages, while local shops are just a few minutes away. Besançon, its TGV station, and major transportation routes provide easy access to this secluded retreat. This renovated former farmhouse is equally suited to serving as a primary residence or as a country home for weekend getaways. Its separate apartment and outbuildings also make it well-suited for a tourism venture or as a family heirloom to be passed down through the generations.

Behind its stone facade, it offers a nature-oriented lifestyle, generous living spaces, and genuine potential for expansion thanks to its outbuildings and separate apartment. A property full of character, in the heart of the Ornans region, where each season creates a new backdrop.

STONE HOUSE IN PORT-LESNEY In Port-Lesney, a charming village nestled in the Loue Valley, this stone house embodies a way of life where heritage blends seamlessly with contemporary comfort. Spanning nearly 205 m², it comprises a family home, a separate apartment, a vaulted cellar, a barn, two workshops, and a tree-lined garden opening onto the river. The traditional materials, generous spaces, and views of nature come together to create a place designed as much for family life as for hospitality, just a few minutes from Arbois and the Mouchard TGV station. STONE AS HERITAGE Stepping through the property's entrance is like entering a different rhythm?that of the Jura villages where stone facades have lined the Loue River for generations, where every house seems to hold a story. Built in the early 19th century, this home is fully in keeping with that heritage. Restored with care to preserve its identity, it offers nearly 205 m² of living space across three levels. From the moment you step inside, the cut stone, oak beams, Burgundy flagstones, vaulted ceilings, and wooden trim create an authentic and warm atmosphere. The separate, fully equipped kitchen retains the spirit of the place while meeting modern needs. The living areas flow naturally into one another. Each room has its own distinct character. Upstairs, the bedrooms invite tranquility, while a spacious open-plan area of approximately 100 m² opens up new possibilities: expanding the home, creating a space dedicated to a specific activity, or adapting to the changing needs of family life. Geothermal heating, supplemented by two wood-burning stoves, provides sustainable comfort and controlled energy consumption, offering energy efficiency that is rare for a home of this era. A LIVING SPACE WITH MANY POSSIBILITIES This property goes beyond its role as a family home. Its layout naturally lends itself to a variety of uses. The separate apartment features a living room with a fully equipped kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom. It can comfortably accommodate family and friends with complete independence or serve as a rental unit in a sought-after area of the Loue Valley. The 46 m² vaulted cellar is one of the property's most distinctive spaces. Its rustic, stone-walled interior lends itself equally well to meals, wine tastings, or entertaining. The barn and two workshops further expand the possibilities for conversion. Whether used as an artisan's studio, a creative space, a garage, or storage, these areas offer true freedom of use while preserving the property's character. Outside, the enclosed, tree-lined garden, dotted with fruit trees, flows from the paved terraces all the way to the banks of the Loue. The river marks the passing of the seasons and enhances the sense of space that characterizes this property. A LIFESTYLE AMIDST THE RIVER, VINEYARDS, AND HERITAGE In Port-Lesney, daily life unfolds as much within the home as it does in harmony with its surroundings. Straddled by the Loue River, the village brings together heritage, nature, and local craftsmanship within a vibrant landscape. Shops are within walking distance. The Mouchard TGV station provides quick access to the Jura, Paris, and Switzerland. Arbois showcases its wine cellars and vineyards, while the Royal Saltworks of Arc-et-Senans, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, bears witness to the region's cultural richness. Hiking, bike trails, canoeing, fishing, and exploring the vineyards are part of daily life and contribute to a lifestyle centered on nature. This house is equally suited to serving as a primary residence, a country home, or a guesthouse, thanks to its separate apartment and numerous outbuildings. THE AGENCY'S OPINION Some homes captivate with their architecture. Others stand out for the way they are lived in. This one naturally combines both. We were particularly impressed by the balance between the preserved character of the old stonework, the quality of the renovations, and energy efficiency that is rare for a building from the early 19th century. The separate apartment and outbuildings expand the property's potential uses without ever compromising the identity of the place.

IIn the heart of Faucogney-et-la-Mer?a village designated a "Cité de Caractère" (Town of Character) in Burgundy-Franche-Comté?this imposing 18th-century manor house simply awaits someone to continue its story. Behind its stone facades lie three usable levels, currently laid out as six apartments of approximately 100 m² each, revealing exceptionally rare renovation potential. The property offers a total footprint of around 550 m² to be renovated, including 275 m² of living space. Stone reassures. Wood warms. Inside, the original features still speak of the nobility of the place. The monumental stone staircase harmoniously connects the different levels, while large open fireplaces punctuate the reception rooms. The high ceilings and remarkable oak beams create a setting where every detail seems to have gracefully withstood the test of time. Here, renovation doesn't erase anything. It reveals. A prestigious family residence, characterful apartments, guest rooms, shared living space, professional activity, or event venue. The building's layout offers exceptional freedom to those wishing to give it a new purpose. The house then opens onto a discreet and secluded inner courtyard, a true natural extension of the living spaces. Two stone pyres and a magnificent vaulted cellar complete an ensemble where each building seems to converse with the others. Then comes the garden: nearly 4,000 sqm of orchard, a pond, a small stone cottage, and, even more unexpectedly, a treehouse already converted into unique accommodation. Once again... Stone builds.

FAMILY HOME IN MOREZ IN THE JURA From the heights of Morez, light accompanies every moment of the day and reveals a landscape of Jura rooftops and hills. This family home in Morez is located in a lively neighbourhood where the centre and shops are within easy walking distance. Behind its solid construction, the spaces and living areas invite shared moments, while the windows frame the mountains in the distance. The terraces naturally extend the house outwards and, on sunny days, become a real living space. Between the tree-lined garden, the panoramic view of the town and the immediate proximity of the Haut Jura landscapes, the address offers a rare balance between urban life and natural horizons. LIVING SPACES OPEN TO THE LIGHT OF THE JURA The house is organised on several levels and reveals a layout designed to accompany the rhythms of family life. From the entrance, the spaces breathe and light flows naturally from one room to another. The living spaces open up generously, offering a warm setting where days begin gently as the first rays of light appear over the Jura. The living room becomes a natural gathering place. The presence of wood, textures and the warmth of the stove create a convivial atmosphere, perfect for winter evenings or moments shared after a day spent in the mountains. The fully equipped kitchen extends this dynamic. The bedrooms are harmoniously distributed throughout the house. Each one has its own place, offering spaces conducive to rest, work or reading. The house thus accommodates the different rhythms of family life, between moments spent together and more personal moments. The current layout of the house also opens the way for other uses. In particular, it allows for the creation of a separate studio for rental. The configuration could also lend itself to a complete shared accommodation project, meeting the rental demand driven by the many students in the area. This interesting modularity allows for several ways of living in or enhancing the property over time. TERRACES OPENING OUT ONTO THE CITY AND THE HILLS Outside, the house extends onto large terraces that naturally complement the living areas. When the weather is fine, these spaces become an extension of everyday life. The eye wanders freely over the city's rooftops and reaches the gentle lines of the Jura mountains. Mornings here have a special flavour. Light gradually fills the terraces, inviting you to take the time to enjoy a coffee while admiring the landscape. Throughout the day, the different exposures accompany moments of life, from outdoor meals to sun-drenched moments of rest. The tree-lined garden provides additional breathing space. It's easy to imagine a vegetable garden, children playing or summer evenings with friends. The whole creates a simple, lively setting where indoors and outdoors interact naturally throughout the seasons. MOREZ AND THE ENERGY OF THE HAUT JURA Located in the heart of Morez, the house is part of a town shaped by the history of eyewear manufacturing and the energy of the surrounding mountains. The town centre is a hub of daily life, with shops, schools and places to live that set the pace for each day. The Jura landscape surrounds the town and accompanies its inhabitants throughout the year. In winter, the Haut Jura resorts attract lovers of skiing and the great outdoors. When the warm weather returns, the hiking trails and forests invite you to rediscover the surrounding nature. The proximity of Les Rousses and the Swiss border also opens the door to a wider territory, combining nature, mobility and economic dynamism. The house thus finds its place in a lively environment where a mountain lifestyle is cultivated, between activity and contemplation. AGENCY OPINION What we perceive here is the balance of the place. A generous, solid house, oriented towards light and the landscape. The terraces opening onto the town and the hills offer a unique perspective on Morez and the Jura.

Between Dijon and Besançon, within a 1 hectare park, a maison de maître, guest house and outbuildings with an industrial past.

To the front, the maison de maître stands before a group of outbuildings arranged around an intimate square courtyard, centred on a tall horse chestnut. Adjoining the house, a long building contains wooden grain silos, reminders of the trade once plied here: the occupants were millers. On the opposite side of the courtyard, a second dwelling — the guest house — shares a party wall with a barn raised above large cellars, which attest to the farming history of the estate. At the far end of the courtyard stands a small outbuilding that formerly housed the facilities. Beyond lies a large garage dating from the 1930s. The park, extending to over 1 ha, is laid out in the English landscape style, with 90 ares given over to an orchard.

Haussmann-style apartment in Besançon Hidden from view at the back of an 18th-century mansion, this Haussmann-style apartment has a rare presence. Here, the city center feels intimate, almost hushed. The rooms are impressive without being overwhelming, the high ceilings set the tone, and the old parquet floors and fireplaces recall a time when architecture was as much about status as it was about lifestyle. Completely redesigned to meet contemporary needs, this space combines the restrained splendor of the past with the comfort of a high-quality renovation. An apartment with character, for those looking for more than just an address: a living experience. An interior shaped by history The apartment is organized as a series of living rooms, designed for both entertaining and privacy.

The fully equipped kitchen has a modern, understated style that blends perfectly with the spirit of the place. A rare balance between heritage and practicality, without compromise. The backyard as a refuge Located at the back of the courtyard, the apartment enjoys a unique location: protected from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet anchored in its lively heart. This backyard, characteristic of Besançon's mansions, creates a precious distance from the street. Here, time is perceived differently, slower, more hushed. The views open onto the surrounding architecture and the Citadel, a discreet but constant reminder of the history of the place. Here, there is no spectacular garden, but a rare feeling of seclusion in the city center: that of living in a preserved space, originally designed to last. This location reinforces the feeling of exclusivity. The apartment does not reveal itself immediately; it is something to be discovered. This is a quality that has become precious, almost impossible to find, in a dense urban fabric. A world within reach Living here means embracing a demanding urban lifestyle.

The agency's opinion: This apartment perfectly embodies what we look for at Arrière-Cour: a confidential address, remarkable architecture, and a subtle balance between heritage and modernity. Its location in the rear courtyard of an 18th-century mansion makes it a rare find on the Besançon market.
