A vast brick and stone mansion with a 20th-century extension, in the middle of a small town in the Hauts-de-France region, 8 km from the Belgian border. The mansion, which takes its name from a former mendicant order in Syria, was initially built as a convent. Construction work on it began in 1724 and was finished in 1729, thanks to funding obtained by the nuns from Duchess Marie-Célestine de Holstein-Rethwisch. In 1792, in the fury of the French Revolution, the outside chapel and part of the cloisters were destroyed before the buildings were rented, between 1801 and 1863, by a private owner to the local authorities to host the police services and prison. It was then purchased in 1927 by the municipality and transformed into a hospice which was officially inaugurated in 1933. In the meantime, between 1873 and 1885, it was revamped as a stately home for the Moreau de la Tour-Godard-Desmaret family. Lastly, from 1979 to 1983, as well as in 1989, the building was modernised with an extension to the south, part of which was demolished several years ago. An entrance porch with a slate roof leads into the grounds in front of the mansion to the east. The main façade, with three storeys, stands out thanks to its brick and stone settings as well as the symmetry of its central section. In the second half of the 19th century, a scroll pediment and two balconies were added to the initial construction of 1724, on the western façade. Additionally, the main section has a half hipped slate roof dotted with hipped dormers and a chimney stack. To the north, there is a wing with a square tower topped by a slate pavilion roof with a zinc ridge cap, while to the south there is a wing with a similar roof. To the west, two flights of stone steps lead down into the grounds, which spread around the mansion over approximately 7,000 m² and include lawns and copses as well as almost 1,000 m² which can be built upon.

Located near Valenciennes and less than 45 minutes from Lille, in the heart of the ancient town of Le Quesnoy and its historic ramparts, this family home, dating back to the late 17th century, comprises 12 main rooms, including 8 bedrooms, spread over 3 floors with a total surface area of approximately 335 m². Built on a plot of nearly 3,000 m² with centuries-old trees, it offers the pleasure of a peaceful and tranquil setting in the immediate vicinity of a lively and touristy town. Requiring some refurbishment and upgrading to energy standards, it could be used for a variety of projects, from conversion into a large family home to the creation of guest rooms, for which its layout and location in the town center would be particularly suitable.

Probably one of the most beautiful chateau in northern France, this magnificent building is located near Avesnes sur Helpe, in the heart of the Avesnois Regional Park, a few kilometers from Belgium and less than an hour from Lille and Brussels. The first traces of its eventful history date back to the 12th century, but it was around 1710 that the architect of the King's Buildings, Chevalier Pierre Bady, Lord of Aymerie, built the modern version. Heavily damaged and partially abandoned after the Revolutionary Wars, it was restored in the 19th century by its then owner, the Marquise de Nédonchel, who added an English-style park and made it her country residence. Today, remarkably restored and set in the middle of an estate of over 18 hectares consisting of woods, meadows, and ponds, it offers its character and charm to lovers of peace, nature, and space. With a living area of 2,000 m², the main body of the chateau is spread over three floors and a large basement, all served by a lift. The ground floor is dedicated to welcoming guests and entertaining, with its entrance hall, large dining room, veranda-living room, library, piano room, billiard room, and club-style lounge bar. The kitchens, the breakfast room or everyday dining room, the pantry, the wine cellar, and the technical rooms are located in the basement. The first floor is divided into four independent suites, each comprising a bedroom, bathroom, and small living room, as well as a children's suite, all arranged around a large central hallway. The second floor consists of the current owners' apartments, which open onto open-plan living areas with high ceilings, and also includes a gym, a jacuzzi, and a sauna. Outside, outbuildings and an old farmhouse offer plenty of space for conversion, as well as stables, several workshops, and a garage for storing classic cars, completing the property. The grounds in front of the chateau feature a helicopter landing pad. In conclusion, this chateau, listed as a Historic Monument, is much more than a residence; it is a way of life, an invitation to luxury and tranquility, at the crossroads of France and Belgium. A unique place where prestige, comfort, and serenity come together, ideal for an exceptional private residence, a high-end hotel project, or prestigious events.
