Le Puits Carré is a large property located in Bourron-Marlotte, a quiet small town on the edge of the  Fontainebleau forest, a short 8 minutes drive from INSEAD.

It harbors a Mansion, to be shared between Insead students/couples, that has 8 individual appartments and lavish main rooms including a large kitchen, dining room and living room with a large open fireplace. It also has two Cottages, fully self contained and each suitable for a couple or a small family.

Most shops and services are within 300 meters from the property, removing the need –all too frequent outside Fontainebleau– to take a car for day-to-day shopping. These include a bakery, a supermarket called "Huit à huit" (open 7 days a week), a butcher, a hairdresser, the post office, a drugstore/pharmacy, a newsstand, a popular restaurant "Le Bistro du Broc" and a garage; the train station in Montigny sur Loing (2mn drive or 20mn walk) has direct hourly service to Fontainebleau and Paris.

The forest is less than 1 km from the house, allowing for scenic bike rides or restful walks. The sports complex, in the center of the town, is less than 10mn walk or 2mn biking, and has tennis courts as well as a large gymnasium offering numerous individual or team sports opportunities. Near the sports complex are the kindergarten and primary school.

Taking a car, one can drive to Fontainebleau discount store ED (15mn), or to the popular Carrefour mall (20mn).
