Artist’s cottage and studio atmosphere in the Drôme Provençale region

Bohemian life and the raw charm of stone in the heart of a hilltop village. In the heart of Mirmande, a botanical village listed among the most beautiful villages in France, this charming 125 sqm artist’s house basks in the Drôme sunshine. Accessible via a charming stepped alleyway, watched over by an unlikely fig tree growing between two stones, this secluded dwelling rises three stories, bordered by a panoramic terrace with a commanding view over the tiled roofs and, in the distance, the Ardèche hills. From the moment you enter, a warm atmosphere emanates from the light-filled 28 sqm artist’s studio, where raw materials celebrate the character of the original structure. At the far end, a door reveals an 18 sqm vaulted cellar, serving as a boiler room, laundry room, and storage area. A first staircase leads to a workshop-style glass-roofed atrium opening onto a bright, 35 sq m living space with an open-plan kitchen warmed by a cozy wood-burning stove. Note the authentic bread oven beneath the extractor hood and the antique vegetable garden under the window, faithful vestiges of a bygone era. On the same level, a beautiful patinated door opens onto a cozy living room/bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and terracotta floor tiles. This living room is flanked by a striking shower room and an intimate terrace, a veritable belvedere suspended above the village rooftops. This secluded outdoor space promises unique moments of contemplation facing the Ardèche hills illuminated by the setting sun. An elegant spiral staircase leads to the second floor, which features a large living room/office, as well as a spacious attic bedroom with its charmingly colored shower room. This peaceful living environment does not compromise on mobility. The village benefits from a strategic location: – Access to the A7 motorway just 15 minutes away, facilitating travel to Lyon or the South. – Valence TGV train station 35 minutes away, putting Paris less than 3 hours from your doorstep. This rare and charming property invites you to relax and embrace a bohemian lifestyle in the heart of a village with incomparable appeal.
