THE PROPERTY
The entrance opens directly into a spacious and welcoming sitting room, where an attractive original fireplace provides a lovely focal point. The adjoining kitchen and dining room is a generous space for family meals and entertaining. Large sliding glass doors connect this room directly to the terrace and garden, creating an easy flow between indoor and outdoor living during the warmer months.
A corridor leads from the sitting room to a hallway with useful storage, a separate laundry room and the staircase to the first floor. This part of the house also provides access to the substantial former wine stores and garage buildings.
Upstairs, the layout is particularly interesting. A generous second sitting room provides an additional living space, with lovely views across the garden and surrounding vineyards. A few steps lead to the principal bedroom, which benefits from a spacious private shower room. Two further bedrooms, each with their own dressing area, are served by a second large shower room with WC. The arrangement offers flexibility for family life and visiting guests.
OUTSIDE AND OUTBUILDINGS
The property stands in an attractive enclosed garden, with mature trees and established shrubs providing shade and a pleasant sense of space. A terrace offers an ideal setting for outdoor dining, while the elevated views across the surrounding countryside and vineyards are a particular pleasure. Electric entrance gates open onto a private parking area.
One of the property's most interesting features is the extensive range of attached outbuildings, formerly used as wine stores and garages. Accessible directly from the house, these substantial spaces offer considerable scope for a variety of uses, whether as garages, a workshop, storage, hobby rooms or potentially additional project space, subject to the necessary permissions. For buyers looking for more than just a house, these buildings offer an exciting opportunity to make the property their own.
