Nature enthusiasts and amateur beekeepers (hives on site but well away), Elisabeth & Dominique open the doors to an authentic 19th century winegrowers' residence, carefully restored in an eco-construction spirit, nestled in the peace and quiet on the hillside, a stone's throw from the vineyards, in a peaceful residential area overlooking the village. Nestled on the banks of the famous Canal du Centre in the hollow of the Dheune valley ("the ceramic valley" steeped in history), with many small shops (including a supermarket), a river marina & notable heritage (11th century Romanesque church, old tile factories, etc.), the village benefits from a superb preserved setting mixing vineyard hillsides, bucolic hedged meadows & beautiful wild forests, adjoining the sublime Couchois & Maranges vineyards, very close to Mont Rome (546m), a renowned climbing site & superb belvedere. Spacious, comfortable gîte (former winery). Large living room. Warm, "country chic" style enhanced by the soul of the building (beams and ceilings, stone walls and lintels, molded wooden doors... original). Enormous charm and character. Ultra cozy and comfortable. Large exposed balcony-terrace. "Reserved" garden space on a very pleasant 4000m² property, landscaped in a natural and ecological spirit, bordering a mini pasture welcoming "dwarf horses" in season, with a permaculture vegetable garden and a fruit orchard (plum, cherry, apple, peach trees... / picking possible with owners' agreement). Composition: Gîte in the owners' house (complete independence). Wi-Fi (fiber). Heat pump heating + wood stove. Air conditioning. Raised ground floor (4 steps): living room-kitchen-lounge, 2 bedrooms (double bed 140x190cm / 2 single bunk beds 90x190cm), bathroom (shower), separate toilet. Balcony + balcony-terrace + small garden (reserved space on 4000m² shared property) + bicycle storage + private parking. Small shops and supermarket 1 km away.
