This authentic old farmhouse in the Ardèche mountains is set in over 6 hectares of meadows,, at the foot of Mont Mézenc, the nearby ski resort and forests of fir and beech trees. Built in the 16th century, it has all the building features of that era: thick ashlar walls, wooden ship frame, slate roofs and rough stone floor tiles. Over the years, it has been preserved, extended and maintained in its original style. The current owners have continued to refurbish it, renovating every stone and every space with local craftsmen, guardians of a very specific know-how. As soon as you enter this superb large reception room, with its perfectly preserved stone floor, the atmosphere is set. It's a warm, friendly place, with a large, perfectly preserved freestone fireplace, where large wood fires crackle during the winter months and cosy evenings. From here, reserved for the preparation of meals for this long-established table d'hôtes, there is a fully-equipped kitchen with a scullery. A beautiful wooden staircase leads to the bedrooms on the 1st floor. Each bedroom, with en-suite shower room and WC, is furnished and decorated in a warm, comfortable style reminiscent of mountain chalets. Above, on the 2nd floor, the entire surface area of the building is used as an attic, for storage and could be converted into a surface area of around 250 m2. At the entrance to the estate, a charming little detached stone house measuring 55m2 is currently used as the owners' living quarters. The original roof has been restored in the style of these local farmhouses, using beautiful slate roofing tiles. To complete the ensemble, there is also an independent artist's studio, a 50m2 garage, a bread oven, a fountain and a large garden, a bread oven, a waterfall fountain, a small swimming pool and a spring that feeds the house. All perfectly maintained. It's a peaceful place to contemplate this natural setting with a superb 360° view. Now approaching retirement, the owners wish to pass on this heritage. The property, which has been successfully run as a gite and bed and breakfast for 10 months of the year for several years, can also be used as a place to live, with its own separate units. Depending on your plans, it could be developed into a venue for exhibitions, shows or seminars, or simply into a large family home. Video available on request.
