Luxeuil-les-Bains, Franche-Comté 70300

Two farmhouses from the 18th and 19th centuries and a converted bakehouse, between the towns of Luxeuil-les-Bains and Le Val-d'Ajol in France's beautiful Vosges Sanoises area. A driveway leads from a country lane in the hamlet to a central court surrounded by the property's three buildings: two former farmhouses, which date back to 1764 and 1834 respectively, and a former bakehouse, which has been converted into a dwelling. The elevations are made of grey and red sandstone. Ashlar forms the door and window surrounds. The small-paned windows have wooden frames and double glazing. The gable roofs are covered with interlocking tiles. The biggest farmhouse is undergoing renovation work that needs to be finished. It offers seven main rooms and has a 330m floor area and a large garage. The second farmhouse has three main rooms, including two bedrooms. It has a 97m floor area. The bakehouse has been converted into a 70m dwelling. It has three main rooms, including two bedrooms in the roof space. Most of the ground floors in the buildings are covered with sandstone slabs. A second garage, made of timber, lies at the south end of the property, alongside the second farmhouse. A tree-dotted garden extends in the northern part of the grounds, covering around 8, 000m.
