An 18th Century Private Mansion With A Courtyard And Garden In The Upper Districts Of Autun, 2

An 18th century private mansion with a courtyard and garden in the upper districts of Autun, 2 hours from Paris

. The estate is located in a quiet street lined with private mansions, a stone’s throw from Saint-Lazare cathedral. Built according to the rules of classical architecture, the property is laid out around a central courtyard bordered to the south by the main dwelling, with its pure lines directed to catch the southern light. The eastern wing, set at right angles, still bears traces of its original purpose. The former outbuildings reveal three semi-circular vaults, one of which is still visible from the courtyard. The small outbuildings to the south complete the composition, closing off the courtyard area. The property cultivates the art of discretion, concealing a vast, leafy garden to the east, invisible from the street. There are three entrances: the main entrance via a double gate opening onto the courtyard, a foot door opening onto the street - a former service entrance - and a garden entrance adjacent to the three garages which are accessible from a back alley.
