manor for sale Aubepierre-Ozouer-le-Repos, France
Manor Aubepierre-Ozouer-le-Repos (77)
70 kilometres southeast of Paris, in the Seine-et-Marne department, an elegant Anglo-Norman style manor and its grounds. Hidden from view, the only glimpses of the elegant building from the street are its roof and two tours decorated with terracotta finials. Once through the wrought-iron gate framed by two pillars each crowned with a Medici flowerpot, a driveway leads to the entrance of the building, which stands in the centre of the grounds planted with high-branching trees and benefits from full sun throughout the day. To the south, a patio opens onto a lawn and the rest of the grounds. The construction, organised around a main building characterised by its Anglo-Norman style, is framed to the east by a round tower, to the west by a square tower, and has three floors built over a basement level. The façades are adorned with half-timbering and brickwork patterns, while the roof consists of small flat tiles.

Manor Presles-en-Brie (77)
45 kilometres southeast from Paris, a 12th-century manor, entirely restored, with its moats, outbuildings and 4 7-hectare grounds. Behind the wrought-iron fence, the property is revealed in all its splendour. To the left, the former watchtower, once defensive in nature, seems to welcome visitors today. Across from it, the manor stands facing a vast lawn. Behind it, a paved patio looks out on the former moats, partially encircled by stone ramparts. To the northwest, an apartment located in a semi-detached barn completes the whole. Two driveways provide access to the grounds. The group of buildings harmoniously blend together thanks to their pointed exposed stone façades, pierced with rectangular or arched windows and embellished with wooden window frames and doors. The window surrounds are in ashlar stone, which match the colour of the plaster. The flat-tile gabled roofs are perforated with pedimented hayloft dormer windows. Corner and façade wall ties are in white or grey ashlar stone. The first vestiges of the manor date back to the 12th century. Subsequently and through the unification of several fiefdoms and domains in 1787, the construction started to resemble “a fortified house consisting of a group of dwellings and large moats of water”. The manor still contains many elements that bear witness to its long history.
