Located at an altitude of 450 meters on the southern slope of Cham du Cros, this 18th-century stone farmhouse overlooks a protected environment in the heart of the Monts d'Ardèche Regional Natural Park. The house boasts a beautifully landscaped and flower-filled garden of 6,145 sqm, a true haven of greenery where Persian beech, silver linden, tulip tree, and magnolia grandiflora, among others, flourish. Gardening enthusiasts will also find a vegetable garden ready to welcome their bountiful harvests. And to cool off on sunny days, the 10 x 4 m saltwater swimming pool, discreetly nestled away from prying eyes, promises delightful summer days. It is surrounded by a coping of Italian Luzerne stone, renowned for its durability, and features an outdoor shower and a semi-underground technical room. Three large rainwater harvesting tanks and numerous water and lighting points facilitate garden maintenance and daily life. A useful woodshed is also located on the property. Inside, this stone building, arranged over three levels, has been carefully renovated, preserving its authentic proportions and charm while incorporating new amenities. The garden level features a kitchen with a Montpellier stone sink, opening onto a small vaulted summer lounge, as well as a shower room with toilet, a pantry, and an adjoining workshop. A beautiful ash staircase, crafted by a local artisan, leads to the first floor where a large, bright, air-conditioned living room with a breakfast bar and sink enjoys a superb, unobstructed view of the Cham du Cros mountain and its 1208m summit. A Bruno wood-burning stove adds to the cozy atmosphere. A comfortable bedroom with a private terrace and en-suite shower room, as well as a toilet, complete this level. On the top floor, accessible via an elegant elm staircase, two adjoining attic bedrooms with whitewashed walls and solid fir parquet flooring create a cozy atmosphere. A large, insulated attic, currently used for storage, could be converted into a children's playroom. Technically speaking, the property benefits from high-performance double-glazed aluminum windows, reinforced wooden shutters, reversible air conditioning on all three levels, and a double-flow ventilation system. Eight photovoltaic solar panels are also a welcome addition, significantly reducing energy bills. The surrounding area is sure to delight nature lovers. Hiking trails start directly from Rocles, a small village in the Ardèche Cévennes, including the famous Tour du Tanargue. A grocery store/bakery, a restaurant, and a local brasserie are also within walking distance of the house. And to stay connected despite this idyllic setting, fiber optic internet is coming soon! This exceptional farmhouse would be equally appealing as a primary or secondary residence. An exceptional living environment just half an hour from Aubenas.
