Renovated character farmhouse with gîtes, swimming pool and artist’s studio

Peacefully located in the Ardèche residential hamlet of Chassiers, a listed village of character with its listed churches, this 18th-century stone farmhouse seduces with its careful renovation, its artist’s studio, and its rental services available in two gîtes. The building, with its old cellar and four cellars, is located within an adjoining plot of land potentially suitable for construction, anchored in the Monts d’Ardèche Regional Park. Two entrances, one of which is on the ground floor, provide access to the heart of the main house, clearly divided over two levels. The main entrance via the staircase attached to the house leads to a bright, south-facing covered terrace. The latter facilitates entry into the open kitchen equipped, among other things, with a beautiful custom-designed central island and an efficient stove. This dual-aspect space opens onto a comfortable living/dining room, which also has an outdoor terrace with views of the village. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two toilets punctuate the sleeping area. The cleverly organized upper floor under the roof reveals a mezzanine area with a reading corner opening onto a large living room, a bedroom with an office area and toilet. A relaxation activity could easily see the light of day on this level. Two other buildings are cleverly connected to the farmhouse: -On the one hand, an old agricultural outbuilding recently renovated on both levels and successfully converted into a reception activity offering rentals in F2 and F3 type gîtes. A small workshop is also listed on the ground floor with rental potential. -On the other hand, a bright, heated and well-insulated 70m2 artist’s studio is cleverly housed under the terrace of the main farmhouse with a beautiful cladding in cut stone and Douglas fir cladding. It is easy to imagine the conversion of this space dedicated to artistic inspiration into a third gîte. This recent extension also fits wonderfully into its environment. It is also worth noting the good thermal insulation of the entire building with natural materials, the judicious application of breathable lime plasters and the presence of chestnut wood and double-glazed aluminum frames. Heating is largely provided by a high-performance wood pellet boiler housed in one of the vaulted cellars. Thermal solar panels guarantee the production of domestic hot water. The exteriors devote a beautiful recreational space around a secure 4X3m swimming pool with paddling pool and exposed concrete beach; Private parking spaces are of course provided within the property for gîte guests. A large plot of 4500 m2 organized into terraces and protected from view adjoins the farmhouse and its summer kitchen. It accommodates the numerous fruit trees, the vegetable garden, a garden shed and a chicken coop. A precious, perennial, captured spring provides water for the green spaces, the swimming pool, and the toilets in the main house. You are undoubtedly in the heart of a privileged location in the Ardèche, not isolated and easily accessible from the Rhône corridor. Essential shops are just a few kilometers away. The existing commercial activity generated by the gîtes will be an undeniable asset whatever your acquisition project.
