Near Autun, a late 18th-century residence and its wooded park of over 9,000m². Located on the site of 'La Verrerie,' the property dates back to 1752 when Gaspard de Clermont-Tonnerre founded a glass workshop that produced bottles for the wines of Burgundy and Champagne. In 1830, a building was constructed on the site to accommodate the factory director. The entrance to the park, where some of the workshops used to be, is marked by two columns supporting a wrought-iron gate. To the right of the gate is a small house from the 18th-century, and to the left is an old orangery.
The park unfolds around the remains of a circular body of water and was transformed into an acclimatization garden in the 19th century. It features remarkable specimens of plane trees, maritime pines, blue spruces, pagoda trees, and two rows of linden trees that frame a terrace with sweeping views of the surrounding landscape.
The residence is very wide, spanning two levels topped with attics and made up of two parts: from the left, a small, square building with a flat roof due to a later architectural modification, followed by the main body, very elongated, with a two-pitched roof and harmoniously structured with regularly spaced windows and entrance doors across the facade, all of which open onto the park. The 'director's house' adopted the typical architectural model of the adjacent old workers' settlement. As a result, the building with windows grouped two by two gives the impression of being composed of numerous small houses attached to each other. The overhanging roof with mechanical tiles and the plastered walls with faux rustication allowed it to blend seamlessly with the glass workshop buildings. Nevertheless, it was indeed a bourgeois residence, featuring both a main entrance and a service entrance.
The house only has windows on its west facing facade as the architect designed it as a series of interconnected rooms. Despite this, the abundance of openings allows for plenty of natural light inside.
The entire property is enclosed by walls facing the street and by hedges elsewhere, ensuring the occupants' tranquility.
