5 bedroom house with guest house and pool

Imagine a charming 5-bedroom house + guest house nestled between the picturesque vineyards of the Couchois region and the rolling Charolais fields, only 30 kms from Beaune and 20 mins from the T.G.V. station direct to Paris (1hour 20 min to Gare de Lyon). This beautifully renovated home (originally dating from around 1600) boasts a cosy main house with a large open-plan living room featuring two inviting seating areas—one with a fireplace just perfect for winter afternoons, and the other, a den looking out onto the courtyard side half a floor down - great for a quiet bit of reading or a nap. The terrace at the rear of the house offers a stunning view of the garden and pool and the local countryside (think of a glass in your hand and a spectacular sunset) while the front terrace is great for breakfast. The kitchen is fully equipped and ready for you to start cooking your favourite meals. In addition, there is a comfortable lounge with dual aspect windows. The cloakroom is conveniently situated right next to the main entrance. The ground floor of the house is heated by the central heating boiler

Access and Layout

From the lower-level den, there is straightforward access to one of the 3 barns/garages, making grocery acquisition convenient.

On the upper floor, the home is equipped with an HVAC system that services the landing area as well as each of the five bedrooms. Among these is a spacious master bedroom that includes an en-suite shower room and toilet, complemented by two additional double bedrooms with their own en-suite shower facilities. In the center, a family suite consists of a large bedroom along with a smaller children's room, all linked via the landing. Directly across the landing, there is a generous family bathroom featuring a bath, shower, double washbasins, and toilet. Currently, the most expansive portion of the landing is utilized as an office space, including a day bed for relaxing. There is ample storage available on the landing and behind a curtain in the children’s bedroom.

Guest House

Connected to the main residence but with its own entrance is the guest house. The lower level features an open-plan living room that includes a spacious kitchen area. A bathroom with shower and toilet is adjacent to this space. A back door provides easy access to the swimming pool. Upstairs, there is an attractive double bedroom, along with a children's bedroom featuring three beds. This guest house is equipped with electric heaters and is being sold fully furnished and ready for immediate occupancy!

Cellars and Utilities

Both residences are built above vaulted cellars, with one allocated for wine storage and the other for general storage purposes. The cellar at the back of the main house accommodates the laundry and central heating boiler while providing additional storage, and another cellar is dedicated to pool treatment systems. The house underwent a complete renovation in 2014 and boasts excellent insulation, holding a C label energy report for the main house and a D label energy report for the guest house. Both residences are connected to mains drainage, with rainwater collected in reservoirs.

Outdoor Features

From the terrace, one can take in the stunning views of vineyards-covered hills. The pool is heated and equipped with an automated saltwater chlorination system. Located next to the pool, the pool house includes a summer kitchen and storage space. The garden, planted with numerous fruit trees, is designed for minimal maintenance. The front courtyard provides ample parking space for you and your guests.

The property also includes 3 barns/garages. Across the courtyard lies a vegetable garden complete with a water well.
