Character house with guest room in calm country location

The property is centrally located between many popular touristic towns such as Cluny, Buxy and Tournus, and the TGV station of Le Creusot for fast trains to Lyon, Paris, Brussels and London. The friendly village of Joncy with local shops and services is only a short cycle ride away.

Enter the main house through the bright enclosed veranda, full of character from the old clay floor tiles to the beamed ceiling and a lovely place to dine. To one side is the fitted kitchen and to the other the spacious sitting room, with 2 distinct parts since it was originally separate rooms, one side with clay floor tiles and the other with parquet. It makes a beautiful living area with views on 3 sides, but of course if another bedroom were needed, it could easily be made here. From the kitchen and from the sitting room, a central hall leads to the bedroom, a modern shower room, a separate WC and a large store cupboard. From the veranda, a staircase leads to 2 loft areas which would be an even better space to add extra bedrooms. Underneath the house are a wine cellar, the former stable now used as a utility and storage room, and several smaller storage areas. Attached to the side of the house is a high barn.

A cosy guest bedroom has been made in an annex building across the courtyard, with its own shower room and a small kitchenette. In this building there is also a handy workshop and a loft space above the whole surface.

The property is in good condition, with double glazing and many renovations carried out over the last 15 years. The house is heated by a wood burning stove and some electric heaters

Over half an acre of garden wraps around the house, with many different areas including a small formal garden by the annex with its covered dining area, lawns, a ‘secret’ enclosed garden and of course plenty of room for a vegetable patch. The quiet countryside around is ideal for walking or cycling or you can just relax here and admire the views over the hills in the distance.

A year-round holiday home, with modern facilities inside old stone walls, and room for expansion.
