Une Grange à Dîmes Du X Ve Siècle Et Sa Distillerie Du XI Xe Siècle, à 10 Kilomètres Au Nord De Fontainebleau

A 15th-century tithe barn and its 19th-century distillery, 10 kilometres north of Fontainebleau and 55 kilometres south of Paris. Only ten kilometres from Fontainebleau, the distillery, thanks to its location, environment and architecture, acts as a genuine link between country and city life. Located on a fertile plain where a few grazing horses provide a bucolic touch, it is bordered on one side by market garden fields, whereas, on the other side of the building, protected majestic trees, filtering the morning light, create a warm and intimate atmosphere around the stone constructions. Built out of buhrstone in the 19th century, the distillery, which contains four storeys of approximately 100 m² each, is inundated by light thanks to its large rectilinear windows, while from the building’s upper floor, the view extends over farmland, which provides a shimmering spectacle at sunset.

Adjacent to the distillery and the seigniorial farm known as the “Fromagerie” or “Dairy”, built in the 15th and 16th centuries, the 260-m² barn with traditional wooden rafters and king post trusses, is 26 metres in length and has a floor-to-roof-ridge height of 10 metres, which makes it possible to create several additional levels here.

Facing the distillery, the 125-m² loading dock with its metal structure and stone foundation, represents the last edifice on the property. In addition, the property is located in a Ubb1 area zoned for building, making it possible to come up with a variety of conversion projects for the three edifices already existing on the land registry.

With all necessary utilities, such as water, electricity and gas in each of the buildings, the distillery’s roof, clad in local tiles, was redone in 2017, the ancient plaster on its courtyard-facing exteriors was removed and four floors were created with pockets for drainage and electrical purposes. Recognised as “remarkable”, this property’s industrial buildings represent considerable historical interest for both the town and the surrounding area.
