Approached by a long private drive ending in gates, this lovely stone house is set on a hillside with stunning views. To one side is a protected forest, to the other vineyards with a view over to a ruined château.
The drive continues through the gates to the front of the house. Here the front door opens into the entrance hall (12m2) with original quarry tiled floor and stone staircase.
To the right is the sitting room (28m2) with tiled floor, open fire place (with wood burner) and two windows to the front.
To the left is the double aspect dining room (28m2), again with tiled floor and open fire place (with wood burner). A door from here opens into the kitchen (24m2) – this has a wood burner, tiled floor and a range of fitted kitchen units with appliances.
There is a door from the kitchen to a rear hall – here there is a door out to the rear garden and a door to a large room (25m2) currently divided into a walk-in larder and occasional bedroom / office – a door from here opens into a downstairs shower room with wc (this also houses the oil fired central heating boiler).
The stairs open onto a bright landing (10m2) – this gives access to the four en-suite bedrooms (18m2, 18m2, 18m2 and 20m2) as well as an office area (7m2).
Behind the house there is a large workshop – and to the side is a lawn with lovely views over vines.
To the front of the house is a lawn plus a gravelled area – to one side is large open-sided barn (116m2) which has lovely views across the garden and fields to the woodland beyond. At one end of the barn a door opens into a fully fitted summer kitchen with range of units and appliances – there are also two good sized storerooms for garden furniture and tools.
To the other side of the front garden is an above-ground 8m diameter circular pool – there is also a separate barn (70m2) which could be converted subject to relevant permissions. Beyond the barn is a large field.
In all, the plot extends to just over 2 acres.
