These Family Homes That Bring Back Our Fondest Childhood Memories
Rediscover the spirit of holidays in a family home
Sometimes, all it takes is a single image to awaken the nostalgia of childhood summers: an iron gate, a large lime tree, a row of sunlit bedrooms...
Memories of joyful family gatherings in spacious homes filled with cousins, uncles, aunts, and grandparents. Homes alive with laughter and long lunches under the trees — where every room whispered a story.
Today, Sotheby’s International Realty Lyon invites you to experience that magic again by becoming the owner of one of these exceptional properties, located in Burgundy, Isère, the Drôme Provençale or the Beaujolais region.

A Provençal farmhouse in Grignan, Drôme Provençale
With its ochre façade, blue shutters and lavender borders, this house in Grignan looks like it stepped straight out of a childhood memory. Inside, traditional materials — stone, lime, terracotta — meet open, light-filled spaces. Outside, the pool overlooks a tranquil olive grove. A dream of the South, to be shared across generations.
