An 18th-Century Manor House in Burgundy’s Wine Village of Givry

Listed for €1,950,000 with Arrière-Cour Immobilier, this 18th-century manor house stands within the historic wine village of Givry in Burgundy’s Côte Chalonnaise.

The residence was formerly used as a summer home by regional bishops and occupies a discreet position within the village core. Long associated with Pinot Noir and reputedly favored by Henry IV, Givry forms part of Burgundy’s established wine corridor south of the Côte d’Or.

Set on approximately 7,100 m² (1.75 acres), the property extends to over 800 m² (8,611 ft²), comprising 15 principal rooms including seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms. Its scale distinguishes it from the smaller vigneron houses more typical of the area.

Behind 18th-century stone façades, a sequence of reception rooms unfolds en enfilade, retaining original fireplaces, parquet floors, stone vaulting, and tall windows opening onto the courtyard. The historic detailing remains intact, complemented by fibre internet, reversible air conditioning, and a fitted kitchen.

Several bedrooms function as independent suites with private bathrooms, reflecting the building’s historic use for both private residence and hosted guests.

The enclosed grounds form a private park within the village perimeter. Pale Burgundian stone terraces overlook formal lawns and mature trees, including a lime tree estimated to be approximately four centuries old. A heated swimming pool, gym, and ornamental potager are integrated into the landscape.

Compared with the Côte d’Or to the north, property values in the Côte Chalonnaise remain comparatively moderated while sharing the same limestone slopes and appellation structure. Access to Beaune, Chalon-sur-Saône, Lyon, and Paris (TGV approximately 2 hours 30 minutes) situates the village within practical reach of larger urban centres.

Properties of this scale within the historic core of a Burgundy wine village remain limited, particularly where preserved 18th-century architecture coexists with substantial parkland and modern infrastructure.
