Six centuries of Mâcon stone
in the heart of the Burgundy vineyards
In the locality of "Le Martoret," north of the wine-growing village of Igé, the Domaine des Roches stands as a discreet yet magnificent testament to medieval Mâconnais architecture. Built in the 15th centuryand renovated in 2015, this Burgundy stone residence combines the authenticity of a centuries-old heritage with the comfort of a fully habitable manor house. All around, the vineyards create a bucolic landscape unchanged for centuries. A 10th- century overlooks the estate from Mont de Mande—the highest point in the Mâconnais region—like a silent blessing upon this timeless place.
The main house comprises 17 rooms, including 10 bedrooms, 2 kitchens, 5 bathrooms, 6 toilets, and 2 laundry rooms. Its ground floor houses a magnificent medieval vaulted cellar —a rare architectural feature that few houses of this period have managed to preserve. Upstairs, a covered gallery provides access to all the rooms—a typical Mâcon feature that is both an aesthetic signature and offers unparalleled ease of movement. Access from the rear of the house is at ground level, providing remarkable convenience for a building of this size.
The estate extends beyond the main house. A separate 68 m² apartment —ideal for a caretaker, a family, or seasonal rentals—is located at the entrance to the property. A 55 m² kitchen and dining room suitable for groups allows for receptions, seminars, or guest activities. A 31 m² office completes the accommodation. The spacious and versatile outbuildings offer the potential for equipment storage, horse stabling, or any other agricultural or craft activity.
At the rear of the house, a secluded and secluded garden features an 8 x 4 m swimming pool with a heat pump and telescopic cover, a barbecue, a bread or pizza oven, and a summer kitchen —all elements that make this outdoor space a haven of peace in the heart of the Mâconnais countryside. Four garages complete the picture. All of this is situated on a 1.5-hectare plot, to which 5.3 hectares of meadows are included in the sale —making a total of nearly 6.8 hectares in one contiguous block.
This property is offered for direct sale between private owners, without intermediaries or agency fees. At this price point in the Mâconnais region, the savings for the buyer are substantial. The property represents a rare opportunity in a market where properties of this type, period, and size are virtually impossible to find—especially for direct sale.
Igé is a wine-growing village of 897 inhabitants nestled in the hills of the Mâconnais region in Saône-et-Loire. It belongs to one of the most sought-after areas of southern Burgundy —a land of renowned vineyards, villages of golden stone, and exceptional medieval architectural heritage. Just a few kilometers away, Cluny and its 10th-century Benedictine abbey, a major center of medieval Christianity, attract visitors from all over the world and give this area a leading cultural and touristic appeal.
The Mâconnais region boasts a distinctive property market, driven by demand from Paris, Britain, Belgium, and North America seeking authentic homes in a preserved setting. The Mâcon-Loché TGV station, just 15 minutes away, puts Paris within a 1 hour 40 minute journey—a decisive advantage for non-resident buyers. Access to theA6/A40 motorway in the same area provides exceptional road connections to Lyon, Paris, and Switzerland.
