House in Chauvirey-le-Châtel , Haute-Saône , Franche Comte

This farmhouse dates from 1758 and has many original elements. The entrance hall still has the original tiled floor and the large stone fireplace. Behind this room is the salon with an original glass cabinet and natural stone wall.
Next to the salon is a spacious kitchen/dining room, a bathroom, a bedroom and the entrance to the barn/garage.

The house has 3 bedrooms, 2 showers, 2 toilets in total 9 rooms and a floor area of approximately 170m2.
It is on 1151m2 of land of which 800m2 is a landscaped garden with a covered BBQ area / outdoor kitchen.

The whole is centrally heated by a modern pellet burner. The water heater heats on solar, with electricity as backup.
Through the house runs a central vacuum system with connections downstairs as well as upstairs and in the barn.
In 2020, the roof was completely renewed, so the house is almost completely in order except the entrance/sejour and the living room where the electricity cables still need to be channeled into the wall.
Any other work you would like to do is cosmetic and to make it to your own taste.

The “Haute Saone”, part of France-Comté, colloquially known as ‘Le Grand Est Oublié’ has now become “The New Place” to be ! And not without good reason! Not only has it, seemingly, been forgotten by Paris but it’s never top of the list for the millions of tourists who flock to the French beaches, the Alps or other popular parts of the country, during their holidays. Over the last 10 - 20 years the local climate has become micro Mediterranean but without the Mistral and the oppressive heat more and more common on the Côte D’Azur or the Atlantic. From a traveller’s perspective we are a reasonable 5 hour drive from Calais, 3 from Luxembourg and just 4 1/2 hours from Frankfurt, with Basel (2 hours) our nearest international airport with daily flights to the UK. Les Vosges, the Jura and the Alsace are no more than a 1 hrs drive and Dijon, very much the gastronomic capital of France, is just over an hour away. If you love farm lands and country side, rolling hills and a great deal of culture and history then I really recommend the Haute Saone. It’s very much possible that you’ll fall in love with this stunning and forgotten little piece of France.
