Superb 17th-century farmhouse on the edge of the Ardche, whose authenticity and renovation are a delight to behold a setting with a breathtaking view of Mont Bouquet, the Cvennes foothills and Mont Lozre. This residence, nestling in a green setting where cedars, olive trees, cypresses, hackberry trees, an orchard and a rose garden all contribute to preservinga lush natural environment, is made up of several buildings - like a hamlet - linked by a calade (cobbled lane). Calm, space, light and a gentle way of life are the watchwords here.On the right as you enter the property, the first building houses two spacious bedrooms (32 m and 37 m) carefully renovated in a sober, elegant style. Both have en suite shower rooms and a large, south-facing stone terrace above the 75 m saltwater swimming pool, with its perfectly landscaped surrounds.The main building features a genuine 70 m duplex suite (with independent access) with two large bedrooms and a bathroom, all superbly renovated, and extended by a west-facing stone terrace. The living room, from which you can admire the panoramic view thanks to a magnificent steel window and terrace, is elegantly separated from the fully-equipped kitchen by a glass roof. A comfortable lounge with its library and monumental fireplace, three bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor complete the central house.A shaded patio creates a charming transition to the final 46 m building, featuring a terrace, living room, open-plan kitchen, bedroom and shower room bathed in light.Vaulted cellars, a well and a natural spring, guaranteeing a sustainable water supply, add to the high quality features of this unique property, a perfect blend of preserved old features and modern comforts.
