Herment, Auvergne 63470

Dwelling:A former coaching inn within the same family for generations, this residence with its preserved character is located in the heart of the small village of HERMENT with the first amenities.Crossing from east to west, it is a solid stone building built by the companions which faces the village collegiate church. On the garden side there is a view of the Sancy chain and the Banne d'Ordanche.The house is built on cellars and accessible from the interior or from the garden below. It backs onto a barn of about 130 m itself built above the original stable. .The ground floor is composed of large stone slabs, a large entrance leading to a main room with kitchen area and typical fireplace, a charming living room and two bedrooms. Two rooms used as a kitchen and sleeping area with a footprint on the barn make it possible to develop an independent and single-storey dwelling. On the 1st floor, previously used as a complete apartment, there is a large room with kitchen area, a living room, two bedrooms and a powder room.Above, a large attic allows you to consider an extension of the existing volumes which represent about 240 m.Land:Built on a plot of 1860 m, the house benefits from a pleasant walled garden planted with tall trees.Accessible from the back of the house by an overhanging porch, it is also possible to access it via a gate from the street.Until the first half of the 19th century, this allowed travellers to leave their horses in the stable located under the barn before going to rest in the rooms. Above the lintel of this stable is still the family coat of arms, of ecclesiastical origin.Additional information:The building retains an undeniable character due to its many fireplaces, original parquet floors, old vat rooms, molded doors.Restoration work (electricity, frames, heating, insulation) will be necessary to restore it to its former glory, but it is a set that has not been distorted over time, which will appeal to lovers of authenticity. Ideal for tourist reception projects, the development of commercial structures (tea room in the stable, courses, training, receptions in the barn...) but also for families or collective housing vocations who are committed to living peacefully in an environment preserved from all nuisances!Safer's mission and challenges on this property- Supporting local developmentTo find out the general terms and conditions of intervention of the Safers, please click on the Consult the agency's rates button below or go to our rural properties portal.
