Ref.4346 : French house for sale 7 km from the centre of Tours (Loire Valley).
In the heart of a popular residential area this family home offers access to all the amenities required for comfortable living today.
With origins from the mid 19c this period « farmhouse » has seen the development of the once surrounding rural fields into a well-appointed and popular residential area in the suburbs south of Tours. With excellent access to all local amenities and Tours centre a short 7km tram ride away this home is ideally located for a family requiring all the necessities of modern life whilst retaining the charm of an older home.
Entrance via the conservatory provides a choice of doors to the entrance hall, wine cellar or kitchen. Steps down to the underground wine cellar, 28sqm storage space ready for that collection. The kitchenwith its fireplace, tiled floor and exposed ceiling beams is triple aspect with separate breakfast area and views over the gardens to the front. A WC and laundry room adjoin leading us into the hallway with cloakroom and double aspect corner study (circa 10sqm) with library shelving and views over the garden. The large, 38sqm main room has a natural division between soft lounge and formal dining with tiled floor, feature fireplace, original beams and stairs to the first floor. The ground floor continues into another split room, this time used as the main bedroom with ensuite bathroom and a 2nd set of stairs to the first floor. This 33sqm double aspect room could easily become a TV room or main lounge depending upon requirements. The third side of the square, completing the ground floor of the main house has two interconnecting rooms of 18sqm and 14sqm with a further shower room with wc (which also can be accessed from outside via the boiler/pool pump & technical room for use after or before the pool). This part of the house could potentially become independent from the rest .. a future separate apartment perhaps.
1st floor: taking the main stairs from the lounge to the first floor we find 3 double bedrooms and a bathroom with wc and via a “hidden passage” a mezzanine (with stairs down to the current ground floor bedroom) and attic/storage space.
Total living area: approx. 280 sqm.
An outbuilding is located opposite the main residence and is divided into 3 sections on the ground floor. The first of 45m² is used as a reception room for family events with tiled floor, fireplace, original hay rack and manger and staircase leading to the first floor. The second (46sqm) is used as a garage/storage area and the third measures 54sqm.
Upstairs there are two attic bedrooms (approx. 100sqm and 45sqm).
There is an adjoining 11sqm workshop with a hand-made stained-glass window.
Just over 1 acre (4165sqm) of enclosed garden. Both sets of gates are electrically operated. The formal gardens surround the house and courtyard on all side offering shade under the mature trees and plants, relaxation and play areas, as well as flower beds and potentially vegetable patches. The heated swimming pool measures 12m x 5m and has a retractable hard conservatory overhead. There’s plenty of parking space within the internal courtyard.
