Old farmhouse and its poetic garden
Old farmhouse and its poetic garden
UNDER OFFER TO PURCHASE-ESPACES ATYPIQUES EXCLUSIVE
Located just 10 minutes from La Rochelle, in the heart of a town with shops and schools, this charming property that was part of an old farm is a unique and singular place.
The styles blend together perfectly, and the masterfully maintained garden enhances the whole. Almost unsuspected from this quiet street with equally old houses, the entrance is through the garden. Discovering this green setting is a real pleasure for those who appreciate vegetation in all its diversity.
It is at the bend of a plane tree that the two facades of the house meet to form a single-storey house in the shape of an “L”. The large glass roof immediately catches the eye, allowing you to discover the living room of the house with its various facets: sometimes a dining room, sometimes a painting studio with a contemplative view. In its extension, the kitchen with its slate worktop and imposing dresser is accompanied by a pantry. Between the two living rooms, the kitchen also opens onto the living room. The latter is decorated with a stone fireplace highlighting the high ceiling, and it benefits from beautiful light coming from its southern exposure. The next room is the original entrance to the house, offering a few cupboards as well as the legendary mirror that belonged to the different owners over the decades. Located on this side of the house, a large bedroom with old parquet flooring has its own shower room.
On the other side, adjoining the living room-veranda, the two other bedrooms of the house again have a large volume. It is highlighted by the exposed beams and the high stone walls. Each of them has a French window onto the garden.
Between these two bedrooms, a family bathroom with shower and bathtub proudly displays its earthenware tiles made from old swimming pool tiles. This sleeping area is completed by a dressing room with storage units found and diverted from their original furniture.
A workshop of more than 45 m2 completes the property. It communicates both with the house and with the garden for an independent entrance. The possibilities are numerous (additional bedrooms, artist’s studio, music room, storage, etc.).
In the calm and peaceful garden, the varieties of plants and trees are incredibly rich. In addition, a vegetable garden area allows you to grow your own food, and a small swimming pool allows you to cool off on sunny days.
Two private parking spaces complete the property’s services. All shops and amenities are within walking distance.
To get to La Rochelle, allow 10 to 15 minutes by car. The cycle paths also allow you to get there in 20/25 minutes.
