Les Jardins du Bourg in Eysins – Balancing Heritage and Thoughtful Development in the Heart of the Village

A Rare Opportunity in the Heart of Eysins

The Les Jardins du Bourg project originated through a local real estate broker, who introduced us to a unique property ideally located in the center of the village of Eysins.

The site consisted of three main elements:

A listed manor house (Grade 2), still occupied by one of the heirs,
An adjoining annex of more modest size,
An orchard of nearly 3,000 m², divided between the village zone and a medium-density residential zone.

The main residence, approximately 600 m² in size, was no longer suited to the needs of its occupants. The heirs were considering the sale of the entire property, creating an opportunity for a project that combined heritage enhancement with targeted residential development.

A Carefully Structured Acquisition

Discussions with the sellers took place over a period of approximately 18 months, allowing expectations to be aligned, particularly regarding the property’s future and enhancement.

Through ongoing dialogue and a constructive approach, an agreement was reached.

This acquisition enabled NewHome Services to:

Redefine the property boundaries in a coherent and functional manner
Place the manor house on the market in its existing condition, allowing a future owner to renovate it according to their preferences
Develop two contemporary residential buildings integrated into the landscape, with a shared underground parking facility.

A Project Developed in Close Coordination with the Municipality

From the earliest stages, proactive discussions were initiated with local authorities, particularly the municipal council, to ensure the project’s successful integration into the existing environment.

This collaborative process made it possible to:

Adapt the building volumes and architectural language to municipal expectations
Encourage local acceptance of the project
Accelerate the building permit process, obtained in less than 12 months, a notable achievement for an operation of this nature.

Successful Delivery and a Validated Strategy

Construction was completed within the planned timeframe, without any significant issues.

At the same time, the manor house was successfully sold before construction began, confirming the relevance of our decision to market the property without prior renovation.

A Balanced Development

This project reflects NewHome Services’ ability to deliver developments with a strong local foundation, balancing heritage preservation, public consultation, and well-managed development.
