Chambéry, Rhône, Address available on request

Details :- Reference: SEQD-T19911. A stunning slice of history......Ideally located two minutes from the Montmelian tollbooth, ten minutes from Chambery and twenty minutes from Grenoble, this former post house offers many possibilities. <br /><br />Built in the center of the village on an enclosed plot of approximately 2100 m2, this complex consists of a former coaching inn from the 1600's renovated in the 1980's, an annex of more than 300 m2 to renovate, three garages closed and three outdoor parking spaces. <br /><br />The wrought iron gate opens onto a shaded interior courtyard, revealing a large terrace paved with old tiles and decorated with a stone pool. The old coaching inn opens onto a cathedral entrance leading to the ground floor, as well as the upper floor via a majestic staircase whose steps are covered with terracotta floor tiles. On the ground floor, an independent kitchen and its pantry are delimited by local stone walls. A door enhanced with a brick arch opens onto the old stables with vaulted ceilings supported by fine cut stone columns. This large double room of almost 80 m2, warmed by an imposing molasses fireplace, offers double direct access to the shaded terrace on the one hand and the large landscaped garden on the other. This atypical and warm space invites family gatherings and constitutes a true testimony of times gone by. <br /><br />Upstairs, the wide staircase leads to a library area then a winter garden before revealing the corridor which leads to the three large bedrooms, one of which is very bright and measures over 30 m2. A bathroom, a toilet and a laundry room/dressing room complete this level. <br /><br />On the upper level, large convertible attics. <br /><br />Opposite, on the other side of the courtyard, a huge annex formerly used as housing remains to be renovated. <br /><br />On the garden level, three beautiful brick vaulted cellars bear witness to the wine-growing activity, still housing the old press, as well as a room housing an old bread oven. On the first floor, served by an exterior stone staircase and a balcony, the kitchen opens onto the living room on one side and onto the lounge on the other. On the upper floor, four bedrooms and a living room with high ceilings. Under a roof in good condition, large attics still offer great possibilities. <br /><br />To the north, in the extension, a storage space can also be set up on two levels. <br /><br />To the south of the plot, three closed garages open directly onto the street and two of them are part of an annex on two levels which can be rehabilitated into a workshop or a home. <br /><br />The large landscaped garden reveals a vegetable garden as well as some fruit trees. <br /><br />Calm is the watchword for this property immersed in the center of the village. <br /><br />Bursting with potential, character and history, this fine period property awaits its new owners, contact us today to find out more.
