Just over the border from Burgundy into the department of the Loire, this old farmhouse has been entirely renovated to a high standard, bringing in quality modern attributes while leaving a flavour of the past in the old bread oven that has become a feature of the new living room.
On the ground floor the kitchen has been newly fitted giving plenty of cupboard space. In addition there is a laundry room. The living room is bright and light and an attractive staircase leads up to a mezzanine reading room and to four bedrooms with fitted wardrobes. The bathroom offers a touch of luxury with twin washbasins, a corner bath and an Italian shower. There is a separate toilet. The doors and window frames, beams and roof are all new. The house has hot air central heating and the attached garage has an electrically operated door.
Surrounding the house is approximately 1200m² of land just waiting for a keen gardener to take it in hand. Features already there include an orchard and a well and wonderful views over the green countryside.
The property is close to the little town of Vivans, near to the Forêt de Lespinasse and about 1hr 30 minutes from Lyons where the TGV will get you to Paris in 2hr 30 minutes. © |
