Informations sur le fournisseur
<p>Built in <strong>1783</strong> , during the reign of <strong>Louis XVI</strong> , the <strong>Château du Buisson de May</strong> is an elegant neoclassical residence that combines balanced forms with refined materials. Located in the Eure department, this château is distinguished by its <strong>atypical architecture</strong> : two of its façades are made of <strong>white stone</strong> , simple and luminous, while the other two feature <strong>red brick</strong> , giving the whole a unique and harmonious visual identity.</p><p> The park, designed <strong>in the English style</strong> , is structured around <strong>two semicircles</strong> and carefully planned <strong>long vistas</strong> , offering unobstructed and romantic views reminiscent of 18th-century landscape gardens. Majestic trees, winding paths, and open spaces interact in a skillfully controlled natural composition.</p><p> The estate reflects the French art of living on the eve of the Revolution, a blend of aristocratic tradition and the modern tastes of the Enlightenment. Today, it is a preserved and unique place, where one can still feel the calm and elegance of a century in transition. A perfect stop for lovers of architecture, history, and gardens.</p>
