A confidential access path leads you to this atypical contemporary single-storey house nestled against an old stone outbuilding from the 18th century. You are here in the heart of the Ardèche countryside in the heart of a green, calm environment, not overlooked and essential protected from the northern winds. Local shops and a famous weekly market are only a few minutes away. The Nîmes or Montélimar stations are an hour and a half drive away. This stretched construction has skillfully taken advantage of land spread over old agricultural terraces formerly planted with vines, olive trees and almond trees overlooking a bucolic stream. An entrance hall crossing from north to south immediately invites you into a comfortable, bright and air-conditioned living space where a living room, a kitchen-dining room and a bedroom can be transformed into a small artist’s studio or office with an adjoining bathroom and toilet. All these rooms have large bay windows which open to the southwest onto the beautiful swimming pool nestled in its plant and mineral setting, sheltered from view. Thermal comfort was prioritized with the choice of beautiful aluminum frames with high-performance double glazing and electrically controlled rolling steering wheels. The living room with its respectable ceiling height houses an efficient natural stone pellet stove. The latter is a real piece of decorative furniture in itself with its serpentine facing. The contemporary-inspired kitchen is decorated with beautiful pieces of artistic ironwork and opens onto a dining room crowned with an attractive glass roof, a real well of light where the outside invites itself into the dining space. Four other elegant bedrooms equipped with reversible air conditioning, including two master suites, are judiciously arranged on the north-eastern sides of the house within two perfectly independent sleeping areas. They can count on beautifully crafted bathrooms. Two cellars, toilets and a useful workshop also occupy the space dedicated to the basement. The wooded, flowery and very neat exteriors give pride of place to olive trees, fig trees, laurels and other intoxicating jasmines. A discreet vegetable garden has even taken up residence along the peaceful local stream. The clever creation of several shaded terraces around the house was designed according to the different lights of the day. Everything has been designed for letting go and the divine pleasures of the table around friendly exchanges. It is clear that all these elements come together perfectly, giving charm and functionality to this resolutely unique house, ready to welcome a new family.
