luxury houses with terrace for sale Epinal, France

An extraordinary living space combining the best of a loft, a villa and a reception area UNIQUE PROPERTY WITH INDOOR SWIMMING POOL AND SPACIOUS INTERIORS NEAR ÉPINAL Just a few minutes from Épinal, this property in Dogneville offers an unusual way of living. Behind the former structure of a communal restaurant, now reinvented as a loft, 645 m² create an interior landscape bathed in light, punctuated by thirteen alcoves, two landscaped patios, an indoor swimming pool, a bar area, a glass-fronted cellar and a professional kitchen. The property opens onto an enclosed plot of approximately 2,979 m², set in a leafy environment alongside a canal, featuring a suspended terrace, a glass-fronted garage and a separate apartment. A UNIQUE PROPERTY ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF ÉPINAL The property is situated in the green heart of Épinal's outskirts, about ten minutes from the centre of Épinal. The nearby canal, the unobstructed views of nature and the garden, the slightly elevated position, the tall trees and the immediate proximity to transport links create a rare balance between seclusion and connectivity. Here, the landscape complements daily life without cutting it off from the town. Épinal station is just a few minutes away, Nancy less than an hour, and Gérardmer forty minutes. This location offers the property a valuable flexibility of use, whether for year-round living, hosting guests, working, or creating a multi-faceted home. A 645 M² LOFT DESIGNED AS AN INTERIOR EXPERIENCE The history of the place immediately reveals its character. Built in 1980 and then completely redesigned in 2019, this former communal restaurant has changed its style without losing its original strength. The architecture retains the scale, the layout and the generous proportions of the spaces. It transforms them into sequences of life. A long corridor connects the rooms. Three bedrooms, all en suite, are situated on the ground floor. The 120 m² living room opens up a space designed for long dining tables, conversations that linger, the play of light on the materials, and winter evenings gathered round the stove. The professional kitchen, with its full range of appliances and mineral worktops, extends this vision of a home built to entertain to the full. Further on, a bar, a glass-fronted, climate-controlled wine cellar, a games room, a self-contained apartment, a spacious utility basement and a glass-fronted garage form a whole where each space has its own function, rhythm and character. PATIOS, WELL-BEING AND MULTIPLE USES What stands out here, beyond the physical spaces, is the way the interior interacts with air, water and greenery. The two light-filled patios act as central breathing spaces. They accompany the circulation routes, frame the views and create a very gentle sense of the indoors and outdoors. The wellness area continues this theme with a heated indoor swimming pool, a sauna and an indoor garden that introduces an almost meditative touch to the whole. Outside, the suspended terrace extends the kitchen towards the sky, whilst the enclosed garden of nearly 3,000 m² offers scope for other, freer and more seasonal uses. This unique property for sale in Épinal can thus be enjoyed as a highly expressive main residence, a secondary home for entertaining, or a hospitality venture fuelled by the site's distinctiveness, its flexibility and the presence of a self-contained apartment. AGENCY'S OPINION We love the openness of the spaces here, the light streaming through the patios, and this confident blend of entertaining, retreat and lifestyle. The property does not seek to make a statement. It offers an experience. That of a unique home, just a few minutes from Épinal, designed for those who love spaces to live in as much as to share.

A natural paradise, especially when the sun shines. An enjoyable ornamental basin (former pool) serves as a natural pool or carp pond, your choice! Straddling the river and the bridge that separates it from the road, the former mill "Badot" (that's its name), founded in title, dating from the 17th century, has been able to withstand the ages without interruption, in the shade of ancient trees and with the coolness of its river. Ancient stones at the base, which previous owners were able to revive, thanks to a complete restoration in the 1980s, where noble materials such as oak, ceramics, and local stones are omnipresent, for everyone’s enjoyment.THE INTERIORS ARE NOT LACKING IN APPEAL EITHER.

The tone is set, between authenticity, quality, and originality. This vast living space boasts generous volumes, a cathedral ceiling, solid and warm materials, and large bay windows that let in the sun at all hours of the day. It promises long moments of well-being by the fireplace, while enjoying the view of the garden, the ornamental basin, and the river. A solid oak staircase leads to a mezzanine overlooking this living room. Beyond that, a library catches your attention for a pause, and then a beautifully equipped kitchen will hold you for the evening. All these rooms, facing the garden and its terrace, invite you to enjoy the interiors as well as the exteriors.

Just ideal for friends seeking independence, or for a welcome income from seasonal rental...EXTERIORS AND INTERIORS ARE BIGGER AND MORE REAL THAN NATURE! Between the house and the river, the former pool has transformed into a pleasant ornamental basin that invites relaxation and tranquility. Here, you are lulled by the singing of birds and the sound of water. The neighboring pasture, occupied by a few peaceful horses, also encourages total disconnection. The bucolic river (La Combeauté), owned on both banks, definitely sets the dreamy scene, surrounded by unspoiled and preserved nature. A paradise for fishermen, of course. Here, nature is queen, and man has not finished taming it.AGENCY ADVICE: The absolute comfort of this old mill, with a touch of modernity, combines authenticity, spaces of over 568m², and untouched nature over 3.6ha, just 15 minutes from the charming town of Luxeuil les Bains and 5 from the first amenities of St Loup sur Semouse.
