Charming silkworm farm with view, swimming pool and large wooded grounds

This characterful 262 sqm semi-detached 18th-century silkworm farm stands out within a 25,000 sqm plot of land clearly divided between terraces and contiguous woods. Here you are surrounded by nature, just minutes from the main shops and essential services of the village of Rosières, while being close to the tourist wonders of the Ardèche. An intimate paved interior courtyard houses a bread oven and a small covered terrace with a wooded area and technical room. The building is built on vaulted cellars with lime-pointed stones. On the ground floor, these cellars house a room with underfloor heating dedicated to relaxation, an adjoining jacuzzi, a small lounge, and a soothing bedroom with its own bathroom and toilet. A workshop and boiler room are also included. A summer kitchen provides access to a beautiful relaxation area, delicately designed and planted around the vast 12x5x7.5m swimming pool with its diving board. A contemporary extension topped with a green roof terrace reveals a bright master suite clad in polished concrete and opening onto a bamboo terrace. A stone staircase, weathered by time, leads to the first floor with its attractive covered terrace overlooking Mont Lozère! The entrance to the beautiful 51 m2 living space features a well-designed and equipped kitchen with a pantry opening onto a dining room and a charming lounge with a cocooning feel flanked by an efficient wood insert. A bedroom with independent access, shower room and toilet is also on this level and is ideally suited for use as guest rooms like those described above. Two other bedrooms with their solid parquet floors have a shared shower room and toilet. The top floor offers an interesting space under the roof where there is a bedroom, a bathroom with toilet, an office area and a games room. This property with many assets has good energy performance enhanced in particular by the contribution of photovoltaic and thermal panels. Two solar water heaters of 400 and 300 liters, double-glazed wooden windows, aluminum bay windows with electric blinds, rigorous insulation under the roof reinforce the comfort. Air / water heat pump, fuel and wood meet the heating needs. A source captured for the complete use of the house and the recovery of rainwater via a gour and a well make it possible to do without the existing water network of course. The exteriors are delicately maintained with the help of complete agricultural equipment stored under a useful outbuilding. The land includes beautiful terraces dotted with olive trees in production and many other fruit trees, all with automatic watering. Two plots are dedicated to the delicate cultivation of saffron. Expertly chosen relaxation areas, a regulation pétanque court for accomplished athletes, and a large shaded outdoor parking lot with a socket for recharging your electric vehicle punctuate the peaceful surroundings. You will undoubtedly be won over by this property, ideal for letting go and immediately reconnecting with nature without being cut off from the world, just an hour from the nearest TGV station.
