Midi-Pyrénées, Aveyron, Sauveterre-de Rouergue, France

Between Rodez and Villefranche-de-Rouergue (just 10 minutes from Rieupeyroux and 15 minutes from Baraqueville), this former stone mill harmoniously combines comfort with the privilege of a preserved natural environment. Nestled amidst woods and small meadows, the property offers a bucolic setting where you might occasionally encounter cows or horses. A charming stream, with its own water rights, runs alongside the main garden and contributes to the peaceful and inspiring atmosphere of the place. Located at the bottom of a valley, the house benefits from an ideal location: sheltered from cold winds in winter and heatwaves in summer, while still enjoying plenty of sunshine throughout the day. The house comprises a living room with a new open-plan kitchen, a large bedroom, a second bedroom with an office area, a very spacious bathroom, and a cellar. Comfort is ensured by an efficient heating system (hydronic stove supplying radiators), providing gentle and pleasant warmth. The insulation is of very high quality, guaranteeing a fairly stable indoor temperature in all seasons. Only additional insulation under the living room/kitchen floor is needed for optimal comfort. This is an eco-friendly home, equipped with a spring supplying the house, dry toilets, and a constructed wetland wastewater treatment system. A fully renovated annex completes the property, offering excellent potential for a professional space, workshop, or independent reception area. At the rear of the house, several garden areas remain to be developed. A rare property with great potential, ideal for nature lovers and those seeking authentic charm.
