Beautiful 18th century family house with large barn and 7428 sqm of land.

This charming property consists of a large main house, a huge barn on the other side of the courtyard, an old bread oven, and a delightful garden of nearly two acres. The renovation has been done by local craftsmen, with the aim of keeping original features, such as terracotta floor-tiles, beams, parquet floors, fireplaces etc) while the layout has been improved,. At ground level are the cellars, and the living area is above. First a covered external balcony, with a fine wisteria and with steps at either end, then the interior which has an entrance hall leading to two downstairs bedrooms and a bathroom/WC but is dominated by the splendid light kitchen, with windows on three sides and a fine stone fireplace, a large table for receiving guests standing in the middle. The salon is more intimate in feel and has a wood-burning stove and a good wooden staircase leading upstairs. On this floor, once attics, two more bedrooms at either end with windows overlooking the lovely view, and between them a landing and another bathroom/WC.
The house faces South, and its roof in traditional "flat" tiles has had three dormer windows inserted. The large garden is to one side of the property, while two wrought-iron gates open into the courtyard in front of the house and also to the rear courtyard separating the house from the barn. There are dry-stone walls enclosing some of the buildings, and the garden is prolonged by a meadow.

An ideal property for a large family, located in a rural setting, about twenty minutes from Cluny and less than five minutes from a large village with shops.
