Luxury architect houses for sale Lancié, France

An old outbuilding rehabilitated into contemporary living quarters. The dwelling, built following an L-shaped plan, is situated at the entrance of the triangular land that extends to the nearby stream. It has retained the features of 19th-century outbuildings, with significant eaves that protect the earthen walls, coated with light lime. The gabled roofs, covered with terracotta canal tiles, highlight the pediment that tops the tall central bay window. Probably resulting from a dual use, of agricultural activity and as the caretaker's residence, the house, now renovated, must have once included a protection area for horses, as well as another for the carriage drivers. The two spaces have been opened and unified by an architect in the 2000s to create a contemporary living farm with an area of 247 m². In the grassy area planted with large trees, beyond the well, there is a small building for storing equipment and garden furniture.This description has been automatically translated from French.
