A33485NIL09 - This is a superb property full of charm. Completely renovated with care and the finest materials over a period of 10 years, the wo houses have preserved the character of mountain architecture, with their superb stonework and slate roofs, and a comfort and atmosphere that give them a very ‘family home’ feel.
Very well exposed, with a most bucolic garden and simply superb mountain views, they allow you to enjoy the best aspects of the mountains without being isolated. There's a magnificent stone swimming pool, a sauna, a boule court, a barbecue area and a very pleasant firepit. All these spaces make it easy for everyone to find their place.
