The Forests of Furtilles, Petits Bois, and Taissonnière together form a 37.22-hectare forested area in the heart of Burgundy. Overlooking the Seine Valley, this property is part of a historic wooded landscape, characteristic of the limestone plateaus of the Northeast.

Following a visit and appraisal, we have identified the following characteristics:

A forest complex comprising three closely situated massifs.
Natural regeneration is encouraged by the region's climate and the rich soil, providing the massif with conditions conducive to the development of high-quality deciduous stands.
The forest is dominated by oaks and beeches, with the presence of linden, field maple, hornbeam, and other diversified species, forming a typical mature stand of the area.
An inventory conducted in 2025 confirms the presence of a significant stock of timber, well-distributed among the massifs, along with a small future coniferous plot consisting of larches and Scots pines.
Access is facilitated by functional forest tracks: natural forest paths for Taissonnière and Petits Bois, and direct road access for Furtilles.
This property benefits from a strategic location while remaining integrated in a preserved rural environment, within the National Forest Park.
A strategic location, between Dijon, Troyes, and Châtillon-sur-Seine, in a calm and preserved setting.
A rich hunting territory, integrated into the National Forest Park, known for the quality of its game.
