This 250 m2 house combines history and historic features with modern comfort thanks to a comprehensive renovation program carried out by the current owners.
A new roof, insulation, double glazing, and renovations have been completed to create a magnificent 6-bedroom, 2-bathroom property with a custom-made blond oak staircase sourced from the Tronçais forest. The immense open fireplace in the nearly 50 m2 triple-aspect living room, with its original bread oven, creates a magnificent 18th-century feature. A pellet stove heats the 45 m2 dining room, which serves the entire house. Underfloor heating is also provided throughout the ground floor, adorned with magnificent travertine and historic terracotta tiles reclaimed from the region.
On the ground floor, the entrance hall and cloakroom open onto a bedroom and a bathroom with a separate WC. The hall also leads to the large dining room (with stairs leading upstairs), with an open-plan kitchen opening onto a boiler/laundry room. The dual-aspect dining room is equipped with a corner pellet stove installed this year and leads to the large triple-aspect living room.
On the first floor, a beautiful staircase leads to two adjacent spaces, which could be used as an office/library and a games area. There are five large, beautifully decorated bedrooms, a family shower room, and a separate WC. Another 18.6 m2 room, converted into a storage room with a low ceiling, provides attic space but could easily be converted into a seventh bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. The front bedroom opens onto an external staircase, characteristic of the barn's historical use.
Outside, the flat garden of almost 9,000 m2 is enhanced by beautiful trees and a building comprising several storage rooms, a fenced terrace (formerly a pigsty), and an above-ground swimming pool at the rear. In front, another 14,500 m2 field is used for hay and its southern exposure offers magnificent views. Situated at an altitude of approximately 160 m, the property is elevated, offering stunning views over the rolling countryside south of the Cher and north of the Allier.
