This 19th century farmhouse nestles discreetly in its green setting, hidden from view. We are just a stone’s throw from the beautiful Gard town of Barjac, renowned for its incredible market, and also close to the dynamic Ardèche villages of Vans and Joyeuse. The Orgnac sinkhole, the Chauvet Cave and the Ribaute artistic space will no longer hold any secrets for you. This stone farmhouse, formerly dedicated to sericulture, has been restored according to the rules of the art. We appreciate its lime-pointed facades. On the ground floor, two spacious, beautifully appointed vaulted bedrooms each have a private shaded terrace and a shared pétanque court not far from the bucolic Claysse, a river that winds along the property. Both are equipped with a separate bathroom and toilet. The thickness of the walls guarantees healthy and appreciable thermal comfort. Beautiful vaults, well-chosen Provencal terracotta tiles on the floor and pastel wall colours welcome us on the upper floor in the living space. The latter sees an inspiring kitchen equipped with bleached wood, a small living room with its comfortable fireplace and a large living room in which we combine all the virtues of cocooning while being immersed in a captivating novel by John Irving. Double glazing, efficient wooden shutters and mixed heating combining electric inertia radiators and a Godin wood stove optimise the comfort of this building. A beautiful staircase judiciously combining wood and wrought iron invites us to a landing cleverly distributing the 2 bedrooms with their bathroom and toilet as well as an office easily convertible into a small artist’s studio. One of the two bedrooms can be used as a guest room and benefits from an independent entrance with its terrace thanks to an external staircase. This entire sleeping area has a beautiful parquet floor patinated by time. A final bedroom and its adjoining bathroom are cleverly housed under the roof and will delight the children. The presence of an annex building makes it possible to bring together the laundry area, the workshop and the nicely hidden cellar. A greenhouse ideally completes the open-field vegetable production. The exteriors are not left out, quite the contrary since the property can count on 26,000 m2 of land. Four terraces overlook the house and are home to oaks, butcher’s brooms, olive trees and juniper berries. It is easy to imagine planting olive trees or truffle oaks on the terraces combined with a tourist reception activity such as a yurt on the flat parts. One of the assets of this property is the invaluable presence of two wells and a borehole on the property. The superb infinity pool cleverly designed with its Douglas pine terrace blends wonderfully into the wooded landscape. We are certainly in a privileged place in the Ardèche to bring together a whole family, friends or guests at a reasonable distance of one hour from the motorway accesses of the Rhone valley and a TGV station.
