Description
Its garden, also classified as remarkable, stretches across a 6,950 m² plot, offering a true haven of greenery in the very heart of Chazelles-sur-Lyon.
It is undeniably part of Chazelles’ heritage as it was once the home of a hatmaker patron:
Georges Fléchet, grandson of Gabriel Fléchet, whose name would later become the sole historic brand of French hatmaking.
With approximately 450 m² of living space, this property is spread over three levels and includes a full basement.
Naturally, it boasts generous volumes and spaces full of character.
Upon entering, you are welcomed by a grand hall (featuring a stunning ceiling!) that leads to the main living areas:
an elegant dining room, two bright lounges, and a fully equipped kitchen.
Upstairs, you’ll find six comfortable bedrooms, perfect for hosting family and
friends, along with three bathrooms, several toilets, an office, a laundry room, and a walk-in closet.
The top floor features an attic that can be converted according to your preferences, with its vaulted concrete roof structure sure to
impress.
The full basement is a considerable asset, including a large garage, storage space, a laundry room (with an original washbasin), a boiler room, a wine cellar, an annex, and even a salting room.
Outdoors, the landscaped garden is a true haven of peace, divided into several charming areas: a rose garden, a wooded section, flowering zones, a large grassy area perfect for planting your own creations, and a stone well that adds an authentic and practical touch.
Built entirely of concrete using high-quality materials, the house has stood the test of time without losing its charm.
Its original state makes it a true testament to the 1930s, perfectly livable today, while also leaving room for some work to optimize energy efficiency and
refresh certain rooms.
Located just a short walk from the town center, it combines tranquility with convenient access to local amenities.
A unique property, rare on the market, ideal for lovers of history, authenticity, and wide-open spaces.
While not officially a castles, this house is commonly referred to as one of Chazelles’ castles.
You’ll quickly understand its popularity and its deep roots in local history
