Renovated farmhouse to look at life through green-tinted glasses

In La Proiselière-et-Langle, this renovated 217 m² former farmhouse is set in an environment where nature truly reclaims its space. Surrounded by fields and forests, and situated on a plot of nearly 40 ares (approx. 4,000 m²)?with the nearest neighbors about 600 meters away?it offers a sense of tranquility that has become increasingly rare. It is a preserved setting, yet not entirely isolated; essential shops are accessible in less than 10 minutes, and the town of Luxeuil-les-Bains is about 20 minutes away.

Inside, the renovation has preserved the building’s original soul, giving pride of place to stone and wood. The ground floor houses the primary living areas, centered around a kitchen with direct access to the outdoors, which flows into a dining room that opens partially onto the living room. A wood-burning stove, installed within the original chimney flue, contributes to the warm, inviting atmosphere. This level also includes a shower room, a separate toilet, and several utility spaces for storage, laundry, and the boiler room.

In the entrance hall, a second wood-burning stove draws the eye with its unique design. Crafted from stone, it functions as a heat-accumulation unit?storing warmth and releasing it gradually over a period of up to 24 hours, depending on usage. This feature perfectly embodies the spirit of the home, where traditional materials exist alongside solutions designed for modern, everyday comfort.

An open staircase, combining glass and wood, leads to the first floor. This level houses five bedrooms: one room connects to an adjoining second room, followed by three additional bedrooms. A space currently used as a dressing room could easily be repurposed as a bedroom, depending on one’s needs.
The house features two shower rooms in total?one of which is located on this floor?along with a separate WC, ensuring a practical layout for daily life.

The second floor offers an entirely different atmosphere. Beneath an exposed timber framework, a vast, open-plan space spans the entire level.
Its generous volume, visible structure, and lack of interior partitions give it a unique character?reminiscent of both a loft-style aesthetic and architectural influences from the 1970s. Whether used as a recreation area, studio, office, or additional living space, this area offers great flexibility and stands out as one of the property’s most striking features.

Outside, the flat, enclosed, and tree-lined grounds naturally extend this sense of spaciousness. An unobstructed view opens up over the surrounding landscape?a mix of meadows and woodlands?while the trees provide both shade and privacy.
An outbuilding, currently used for storage, complements the existing facilities and offers potential for future development. An old well, currently sealed, could also be brought back into service.
Additionally, the property includes approximately 10 ares (about 1,000 square meters) of agricultural and forest land.

This former farmhouse is defined by more than just its 217 square meters of floor space or its characterful materials. Above all, it offers a different way of living: one that embraces tranquility, expansive horizons, and nature on a daily basis, while remaining within reasonable reach of local services and shops.
It is a truly unique setting, where the authentic charm and generous proportions invite you to imagine a life that unfolds in harmony with the changing seasons.
