Restored character farmhouse with gîte

Located in the heart of the village of Vieu-d’Izenave, this former Bugiste farm has undergone a remarkable restoration that combines respect for its heritage with modernity. After passing around the fountain and washhouse, the building is revealed in a charming cobbled courtyard. Its façade, a subtle blend of stone and contemporary materials, immediately sets the tone for this exceptional achievement. Upon entering, the eye is captured by the harmony of materials: wood, stone, metal, and glass complement each other, creating a warm and timeless atmosphere.

The main living space surprises with its generosity and brightness: an open kitchen with a central island and high-end equipment, a convivial dining room, a living room enhanced by a Nordic stove and a monumental bay window that floods the room with light. An old counter adds a unique touch and a welcoming atmosphere.

On the ground floor, a master suite completes this first level. An elegant contemporary staircase leads upstairs, where a mezzanine serves two suites with bathrooms and dressing rooms, as well as two additional bedrooms of generous dimensions. The ensemble combines comfort and refinement. The total surface area of over 500sqm of the property has allowed for the integration of a separate 200sqm reception area. This cottage includes four bedrooms and bathroom, a functional kitchen, and a living room, ideal for a seasonal rental project or for welcoming family and friends in a preserved setting. The location adds an additional attraction: the region, rich in its natural and cultural heritage, attracts many visitors each year.

The superb Lake Nantua, the Cerdon Caves, and the Bonnet Silk Museum are among the must-sees, making this place a privileged starting point for discovering an authentic and touristy region. The 1380sqm plot, planted with trees and carefully landscaped, accompanies the building and completes this rare place where authenticity and modernity combine elegantly. Halfway between Lyon and Geneva, Vieu-d’Izenave benefits from an ideal location: a preserved natural setting ideal for hiking, while remaining only 15 minutes from the motorway access.
