BESANCON, Franche-Comté 25000

Your SIGNATURE advisor invites you to explore this former winegrower's house from the early 19th century, located in the commune of CHOUZELOT, a charming little picturesque village by the Loue, benefiting from all the amenities offered by the neighboring town of Quingey, 20 km from the gates of Besanon and its hospital, and 5 km from the nearest train station. A PLACE FULL OF HISTORY The vaulted cellar, with a remarkable volume and quality, immediately indicates the building's wine-growing origins, part of which was already intended for habitation, evident from the still-present sink on the upper floor and a fireplace that could not be preserved during the renovation in 2003. In the same family since 1874, family stories suggested the existence of a well at the heart of the house, a well that was synonymous with access to drinking water, which was of crucial importance at the time. This is why the highlighting of this well became a central element of the renovation and is now a true centerpiece of the house. Finally, the black soil of the garden seems to confirm the hypothesis of the presence of the town's public oven, which will now delight accomplished gardeners. A MAJOR RENOVATION Once past the gate, the jointed stone faade sets the scene; the house, which does not attract attention from the street, has indeed undergone a complete renovation! From floor to ceiling, everything has been redone from A to Z. This is evident in a reinforced structure, the creation of 3 slabs, two of which are equipped with underfloor heating in the living areas, the complete renewal of the roof, the replacement of all doors and windows, the installation of a central heating system combined with a wood stove, and the implementation of enhanced insulation achieving an energy rating of C, a genuine performance! The interior accommodates modern living while still reflecting the remnants of the past, such as the stone sink and the well. A particular effort was made to use local materials, such as solid hornbeam and acacia floorings. GENEROUS VOLUMES On the ground floor, you will find a living room of 45 m, a laundry room with a window and shower of over 10 m that can be transformed into a bedroom if needed, a separate toilet, and access to the vaulted cellar. Upstairs, the mezzanine of over 20 m directly leads to an open area of 18 m with a view of the Loue, arranged as a second dining room and can serve as an office or be partitioned into a fourth bedroom, along with 3 bedrooms of 11, 15, and 16 m, a bathroom with an Italian shower and bathtub, and a separate toilet. ANNEXES WITH POTENTIAL With a comfortable current area of 162 m, the size of the house can be increased by about 100 m thanks to the convertible attic, accessible via an opening in the upper slab. The vaulted cellar of approximately 35 m, accessible at ground level from within the house, also offers great potential and multiple possibilities (tasting room, billiards, spa, ...). Finally, a large workshop and a garage that can accommodate up to 3 cars complete the tour of this charming property. Have you been charmed by this exclusive and rare property for sale?
