Description
A44835SAL58 - This attractive late 19th century property combines generous proportions, period charm and versatile outbuildings in a peaceful hamlet setting close to Clamecy. Offering four generously sized bedrooms, two reception areas, enclosed gardens and substantial detached barns, the property provides flexible accommodation suitable for family living, holiday use or a hospitality project.
The house retains many original architectural details while benefiting from modern practical comforts including village gas central heating, fibre internet and double glazing throughout.
Ground Floor Accommodation
The main entrance door opens directly into the lounge measuring approximately 19.6m² (5.30m x 3.70m). This is a bright and welcoming reception room with high ceilings, large windows and an original decorative fireplace forming the focal point of the room. The proportions of the space allow for both comfortable seating and entertaining.
An opening leads directly through into the dining room measuring approximately 14.2m² (3.90m x 3.65m). Positioned between the lounge and kitchen areas, this room creates an excellent flow through the property and works particularly well for family dining or entertaining guests. This room also has direct access to the outside courtyard area creating a secondary main entrance.
From the dining room, access is given to the central hallway containing the original staircase and decorative banister leading to the first floor. The staircase remains one of the standout character features of the property.
The kitchen measures approximately 19m² (4.75m x 4.00m) and is arranged in a practical square layout with room for a large dining table at the centre of the space. Modern fitted units blend comfortably with the traditional style of the room while the original decorative fireplace and patterned tiled floor retain the character expected from a property of this period.
Natural light enters through large windows, helping create a bright and sociable atmosphere ideal for everyday use. There is also direct access to the outside courtyard from the Kitchen.
Next to the kitchen is the utility room measuring approximately 9.6m² (2.40m x 4.00m). Currently used as a butler’s pantry and utility area, this room provides valuable storage, a sink, and workspace. It also contains a laundry cupboard suitable for both washing machine and tumble dryer installation.
A separate downstairs WC is located adjacent to the utility room.
From the utility room there is direct access onto the rear courtyard, allowing practical access between the house and outdoor entertaining areas.
The cellar (“cave”) occupies a substantial footprint beneath part of the property and benefits from notably good ceiling height, making it highly usable for storage as well as wine keeping.
First Floor Accommodation
The staircase rises to a spacious landing measuring approximately 13.8m² (3.72m x 3.72m at maximum dimensions). This central landing gives access to bedrooms and bathroom.
Bedroom 1 measures approximately 16.3m² (4.95m x 3.30m). To the front of the house, this spacious room benefits from good natural light and generous proportions suitable for a principal bedroom. It also has french doors leading out onto a stone staircase giving it direct access from outside. There are also doors to the stone case that leads to the large attic.
Bedroom 2 measures approximately 19.8m² (5.35m x 3.70m). Leading off of bedroom 1, this room offers excellent floor space. It has one large casement window and a set of patio doors overlooking the front of the property, and leading onto a balcony.
Bedroom 3 measures approximately 18.3m² (5.15m x 3.55m). Positioned towards the rear of the property, this room benefits from pleasant outlooks and comfortable proportions with patio doors leading to a Juliette balcony overlooking the courtyard.
Bedroom 4 measures approximately 16m² (4.00m x 4.00m). With dual aspect window both overlooking the courtyard to the rear of the property.
The family bathroom measures approximately 14.6m² and includes a large bath, separate shower and wash basin.
A separate WC is located independently from the bathroom, accessed directly from the landing.
Character Features
The property retains numerous original details throughout including:
decorative marble and stone fireplaces
original bannisters and staircase
patterned floor tiles
high ceilings
traditional internal doors
large windows
bright dual-aspect rooms
These features combine with the current decorative style to create a property with warmth and authenticity while remaining practical for modern living.
Gardens and Exterior
The property stands within approximately 1075m² of enclosed grounds arranged across several distinct areas.
To the front of the property is a landscaped enclosed garden bordered by wrought iron fencing. This area creates an attractive and secure approach to the house while enhancing the overall presentation of the façade.
To the side and rear of the property is a paved enclosed courtyard enjoying morning to mid afternoon sunshine. This sheltered space is currently arranged around a jacuzzi area and offers an excellent environment for outdoor dining and entertaining.
A gate leads to stone steps rising from the courtyard into the upper garden area which has a softer and more natural atmosphere with mature planting, trees and hedging providing additional privacy.
The combination of courtyard and garden spaces allows both low-maintenance outdoor living and more traditional garden use.
Barns and Outbuildings
The property includes two substantial detached barns positioned separately from the main house. Both barns benefit from large access doors suitable for larger vehicles including campervans.
These buildings provide significant additional potential for:
workshops
hobby spaces
secure storage
artist studios
guest accommodation conversion
tourism projects
classic vehicle storage
Please be aware that the roofs of both barns would benefit from repair works.
Local Area
The property is situated in a small and peaceful hamlet within easy reach of Clamecy, a popular canal town known for its summer atmosphere, restaurants, local markets and year-round amenities.
The surrounding countryside offers forests, walking routes and access to Burgundy’s natural landscape while remaining accessible from Paris by both road and rail in under three hours.
This is a spacious and versatile property offering immediate comfort together with long-term development potential in an increasingly sought-after area of rural Burgundy.
