Built into the ancient village ramparts, this unique stone house enjoys an exceptional setting overlooking the river Cesse and its natural swimming area. Delightfully full of character, with thick stone walls and charmingly irregular lines, it offers an authentic and atmospheric riverside lifestyle.
The property benefits from a rare and ancient right whereby ownership extends from the house to the middle of the river. Historically believed to have been the first tobacco house in the village, the south-facing riverside terraces were once used to dry tobacco leaves, while sales took place from the front onto the picturesque village square.
The house is compact yet liveable, with balconies directly facing the river and lovely views over the water. A newly created 15 m2 terrace on the riverbank allows you to swim, return directly to the property, and relax by the water - perfect for sunbathing or enjoying a drink. The cellar space behind, traditionally designed to accommodate occasional river swell, has been lightly refreshed and lends itself beautifully to use as a seasonal riverside leisure area.
While some updating would enhance the property further, its location - river at the back, village life at the front - offers exceptional lifestyle appeal and strong potential for those seeking a truly unique project in a magical setting.
