This old stone house is full of charm and history and sits on an edge of a plateau giving beautiful views across the valley. It has private gardens and a pool providing a haven for peace and tranquillity.

The main house is beautifully decorated retaining many original features including wooden flooring, enormous beams and pointed stone walls. All the living areas are on one level.

Its entrance, via stone steps and seating terrace, has a large fireplace with wood burning stove, and is currently used as a dining room.
There are 2 double bedrooms and a traditional bathroom.
The living room has high cathedral ceilings, wood burning stove and another dinning area.
The kitchen is separated by a stud wall and could be opened up into this large room. Although small, it has plenty of storage space.

A wooden staircase leads to the cool gite that has a sitting room with an old fireplace and colonial wood burner, large bedroom, kitchen, shower room. There are some beautiful original features here such as an original bread oven in the kitchen, and a old stone sink in the sitting room.
A vine covered terrace over looks the swimming pool. (10 x 5)
A door can be locked on the stairs to make this space completely independent, or can be open to be incorporated into main living accommodation of the house.
This has been rented during the summer months, but would also make a perfect “Granny flat”.

On the ground floor there are 2 more bedrooms, living area and shower room.

There is a large barn (108m2) that could be converted to make more accommodation or even a studio and there is a garage.

There are front and side entry gates leading into a special established garden with lots of secret sitting areas, partially lawned. A truly magical spot.
