House
Ground floor :
A few steps lead up to the entrance hall, which opens onto the staircase and a central hallway.
To the left, the hallway leads to a bright and spacious 33.5 m2 living room with an open-plan fitted kitchen and dining area.
The room features a wood-burning fireplace insert fitted into a lined chimney, with a heat distribution system supplying the rooms above.
Original built-in cupboards have been carefully preserved, as has the original stone sink. The exposed stone partition wall adds both character and excellent thermal mass.
On the opposite side of the hallway is a bright 20 m2 sitting room.
To the rear of the house are a large separate WC, suitable for use by a person with reduced mobility, and a spacious 8.5 m2 shower room with shower cubicle, double washbasin and a large window overlooking the surrounding countryside.
First floor :
On the south-west side are a large 19.1 m2 bedroom, a shower room with WC and a second bedroom of 17 m2.
To the north-east are two further bedrooms of 17 m2 and 13.5 m2.
This floor also benefits from direct access to the rear of the property and the adjoining pasture.
Attic :
Above the bedrooms is a single open attic of approximately 77 m2, offering generous space, a sound roof structure and excellent conversion potential.
Cellar :
The cellar, accessed directly from inside the house, comprises three dry storage rooms of 14 m2,17.5 m2 and 17 m2. It also benefits from an external access on the north side.
Outbuildings
Barn 1 :
Set slightly below and offset from the house, this impressive barn offers approximately 214 m2 of ground floor area over two levels. The roof structure and roof are in good condition, having been well maintained throughout. The lower level, formerly used as the cowshed, retains attractive original features, including a fine row of timber posts and beams.
Barn 2 :
A smaller and older barn of approximately 90 m2 footprint requires structural renovation but still retains an attractive original timber frame.
Bakehouse and bread oven :
A charming outbuilding of approximately 80 m2 footprint, originally believed to have been a bakehouse, extends over two levels. The traditional bread oven remains in good condition, with its original vaulted chamber intact.
Although the building requires complete renovation, it retains many attractive original features, including a built-in cupboard, stone flooring and an impressive timber roof frame.
