House in Bourbonne-les-Bains , Haute-Marne , Champagne Ardenne

This Manoir breathes history in every room you enter. The sellers who have owned it since 2008 have done everything possible to keep the property original.
Apart from a lick of paint here and there, there is no lack of maintenance, all windows and doors have been renewed and double glazed and 2 years ago the central heating boiler was replaced by a heat pump.

It offers a small cosy entrance room, 2 living-dining rooms, 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 toilets and a kitchen.
The house is connected to the mains drains.
There is central heating by modern heat pump.

There are several outdoor terraces and the house stands on 13,492m2 of land. It is situated on a hill and therefore has an unobstructed view over the valley.

The house is full of antique furniture that will be auctioned after the sale but the sellers give the buyer a first right of purchase.

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.
