Renovated farmhouse near Dole In Vriange, in the heart of the Jura countryside, an 18th-century stone house exudes timeless character. Formerly owned by the Lord of Dortan, it has gracefully stood the test of time, offering a living environment where history blends with the gentle landscapes. Surrounded by orchards and bordered by the Serre forest, it is located in a preserved environment, a few steps from hiking trails and not far from Dole. The interior, renovated with respect, combines exposed beams, period woodwork, and the warmth of fireplaces. Outside, terraces, a wooded garden, and a swimming pool blend into the natural surroundings. A place designed for family life, a vacation rental project, or simply the search for rare authenticity. Spaces steeped in history From the entrance, the old stone and wood engage in a vibrant dialogue. The oak ceilings, central staircase, and woodwork tell the story of generations of old inhabited stones. Two period fireplaces warm winter evenings, while the terracotta tiles and parquet flooring bear the marks of time. The light, filtered through large openings, reveals the golden hues of the stone and highlights the softness of the volumes. The renovation has been carried out with respectful fidelity: a warm kitchen, a generous living room, and welcoming bedrooms extend the history while offering contemporary comfort. Each space lends itself to family life, entertaining friends, or a bed and breakfast project. Here, authenticity is never static: it is experienced every day, in the simplicity of a wood fire or a breakfast bathed in morning light. Nature as your horizon Around the house, the countryside paints a changing picture. An old orchard fills the air with fragrance in spring, the tiled terraces invite you to enjoy summer meals, and the pool opens onto the nearby forest. The gently sloping grounds offer an intimate yet unobstructed view of nature and the village church. Each season writes its own story here: light autumn mist, bright winter light, summer shade under the trees. The outbuildings, discreet but valuable, complement the life of the house. A workshop for creative projects, a vaulted cellar for Jura wines, spaces ready to welcome new uses. Here, nature is not a backdrop: it is a daily companion, a breath of fresh air that connects this country house, close to life in Dole, to its surroundings. An area to explore Vriange is nestled in a gentle countryside, between orchards and forests. The Serre trails offer endless walks, leading to caves and clearings steeped in mystery. The village, bustling with its schools and community life, retains the spirit of a welcoming community. A few kilometers away, Dole reveals its canals, its listed heritage, and its gourmet markets. Further afield, the Jura vineyards, lakes, and plateaus invite you to make further discoveries. Major roads, Dole airport, and TGV stations provide easy access to neighboring cities.
