This characterful Ardèche property is generous by nature.

For lovers of space, where water also flows before our eyes in many ways, this estate awaits you in the countryside in the heart of the Ardèche, at 700 m altitude. Made up of ponds and streams, various species of wood and meadows for horses, this 10-hectare natural park suggests autonomy and a more-than-family welcome. In 2007, a number of annexes were added to the property, and the new, larger and more contemporary structure was designed between the preserved stonework of the solid buildings. Under the guidance of an architect, the 215 m2 of living space has been renovated to create a bright, atypical setting. He reorganized the volumes and their access, creating an entrance hall to give rhythm to the sense of space and lead to the different living areas. From here, a staircase rises to serve a mezzanine office, the only living height. The main living space is located on the first floor, which is slightly elevated and has a surprising layout. It offers 4 showers, 3 baths and 4 toilets to 4 bedrooms, one of which is slightly duplex. At the heart of the house, the 36 m2 winter garden offers much more than a passageway to the terrace and pool. A large and a small living room in a row, enjoy the fire of the fireplace and their bay windows oriented South/East lose our view on its raised ground and its amenities. The kitchen invites the dining room to share a beautiful space, open to a table in the garden. A basement supports part of the house, also accessible from the outside, and features a boiler room, laundry room and vaulted wine cellar. In addition, there’s an independent gîte of over 50 m2 in need of refurbishment, 2 lean-to buildings and an awning, for a total floor area of over 400 m2. This very tranquil setting is accessed via a driveway leading to a large outdoor parking area. Once you’ve left the road, you’re just 8 minutes from the town of Lamastre, 35 minutes from Valence and 1H40 from Lyon. Its enclosed, adjoining grounds guarantee the absence of any nuisance. This property already meets so many of your selection criteria, it’s just incredible and rare.
