Description

Nestled in a small peaceful hamlet and enjoying stunning uninterrupted views over the surrounding countryside, this elegant Maison de Maître offers 258 m² of living space, full of charm, character, and excellent potential for further development and extension.

Ground floor: a beautiful entrance hall welcomes you with original stone floor tiles and a magnificent original staircase, immediately setting the tone for this character-filled home. The spacious 34 m² living room, also featuring beautiful original stone flooring, is enhanced by an impressive stone fireplace with a wood-burning insert, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The fitted kitchen of 20.65 m² includes a convivial bar area, perfect for informal dining and entertaining. A tiled utility/back kitchen with direct access to a large south-facing terrace provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining with family and friends. A generous 10 m² pantry offers excellent practical storage space for everyday living.

To the rear of the house, an in-ground 12 x 7 metre swimming pool awaits restoration and offers fantastic potential for creating a beautiful outdoor leisure area.
