In a quiet spot in the rolling countryside north of Cluny, this attractively renovated stone house is ideal for getting away from it all without being completely isolated. Two separate areas make it practical for guests or extended family. Well situated to enjoy the best parts of south Burgundy.
The property is centrally located between many popular touristic towns such as Cluny, Buxy and Charolles, and the TGV station of Le Creusot for fast trains to Lyon, Paris, Brussels and London. A traditional village shop selling fresh bread and local produce is 1.5 kms along a quiet country lane in the neighbouring village, otherwise local shops and services can be found in the larger village of Joncy at 8 kms, with a big supermarket and medical centre in St Bonnet de Joux at 11 kms.
Enter directly from the south-facing terrace into the 56 m2 living room. To one side is the fitted kitchen and dining area and the other a cosy sitting area round the stone fireplace, each with patio windows for light and access to the garden. A separate salon on the east side serves as another bedroom here if needed. A staircase from the living room leads up to an open office area or dressing room, with to one side the master bedroom and the other a modern bathroom with bath, shower, double washbasin and WC.
A door from the living room leads to the guest area, also accessible directly from the terrace. Here there is a second living room with kitchen and dining area and modern shower room on the ground floor, and a large bedroom on the first floor.
The property is double glazed and centrally heated by an efficient oil boiler, with underfloor heating in the living room and radiators elsewhere.
To the side is a former barn, used as a storage, utility and boiler room, with a small guest bedroom and a further mezzanine storage area on the first floor.
A flat garden of 1500 m2 stretches south from the house, with mature trees for shade, making it a lovely place to relax and admire the views over the Mâconnais hills in the distance. The quiet countryside around is ideal for walking or cycling and the swimming lake at Le Rousset is just a few kms away.
A year-round holiday home or main residence, with modern facilities inside old stone walls.
