Charming house with a barn and gardens

Nestled in the heart of a traditional Burgundian village, with a picturesque view of the Radiant Gothic Church dating from the 11th century, this exceptionally appealing and enchanting residence is ready for immediate occupancy and has undergone recent renovations. It showcases character-rich living spaces adorned with original decor, complemented by two more modern bedrooms and a bathroom.

A courtyard entrance provides access to gardens that overlook both the village and the surrounding countryside. Significant attention has been devoted to the renovation process to preserve the historical essence of this property.

Previous owners and occupants have mentioned that this property was formerly part of a group of buildings linked to the nearby Gothic church, functioning as a communal dining area or refectory for priests, labourers, and senior clergy members. The precise year of construction remains unclear, but the architectural style of the ground floor rooms suggests they may predate the 18th century. These rooms are in excellent condition, with recent enhancements increasing their appeal

Access to the property is via a gravel courtyard, offering private parking for several vehicles. The barn and stable can also be accessed through this courtyard. The gardens on the sides and back of the house are reachable from both the house and the courtyard. There are three access doors: one opens directly into the kitchen and day room, another leads into the charming salon, and a third connects the day room to the gardens

House

Ground floor: A spacious sitting room of 44m2 features numerous original characteristics, including a Burgundy stone floor, an impressive stone fireplace with a wood stove, wood and stone accents, exposed oak beams, and stone walls that incorporate visible stone sections alongside a traditional plaster finish. This room originally functioned as the church\'s refectory

Kitchen and dining: consists of built-in wall and floor cabinets, integrated appliances, shelving, and ceiling lighting. This area also boasts an additional stone fireplace, originally serving as a bread oven, now equipped with a wood-burning stove. Located behind the kitchen is a day/sitting room that overlooks the gardens

The upper floor is accessible via a lovely oak staircase that spirals up to a long hallway connecting two bedrooms, both featuring exposed beams, as well as a toilet and a bathroom with a bathtub and walk-in shower. This level, which was once the attic, has been remodeled to increase headroom from the original beam framework. Roof insulation was also added during this renovation

The courtyard is divided into two sections; the first section, located by the roadside, allows neighbors access to their properties, while the second section, Plot number 592, is reserved as private for this property

Gardens: a gravel area in the garden featuring a water well winds around to the back of the house, providing access to a garden storage shed and connecting to two distinct garden plots. One plot is designated for vegetable cultivation and includes a patio for outdoor dining and relaxation, while the other comprises a lawn and vibrant, well-maintained borders of flowers and shrubs. A paved path separates these gardens, both of which offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside
