Beautiful renovated Briarde house in the heart of the Petit Morin valley

Belle maison briarde rénovée au coeur de la vallée du Petit Morin

9km from La Ferté sous Jouarre, this beautiful and bright Briarde house of 222m2 on three levels is built on enclosed and landscaped grounds of 1755m2 in the heart of the Petit Morin valley. In its forest setting, a dead end leads to this light-coloured stone briard. The house, facing east-west, bordered by a forest and deploys its spaces and levels in a very atypical way. The interior has been completely renovated with quality materials. The old elements have been preserved, restored and judiciously integrated. Emphasis has been placed on large volumes and the marriage of classic and contemporary is truly successful. The whole exudes a charm that seduces quickly. The ground floor is all stone, brick and exposed beams, and covered with beautiful checkered tiles. You enter through the fitted and equipped kitchen, where a beautiful old fireplace sits with its retro-looking wood stove and its bread oven. A door opens onto a large living room with a dining area and its warm wood and brick bar, separated by a few slate-clad steps. A lounge area embraces the room. A bathroom and its sanitary with laundry area complete this level. A wooden staircase leads to the first floor, entirely dressed in solid parquet, stones and exposed beams, old rounded wooden doors. It consists of a large space with more than four meters under the ceiling where an office-library, a billiard room and two lounge areas have been fitted out. The bay windows overlooking the garden reveal its trees, flowers and bushes. Continuing the ascent, you reach a landing which is now used as a painting studio and which itself opens onto a beautiful attic room with exposed beams. In the billiard room, a rounded door leads to a second stone staircase which leads to split levels. Upstairs, a large double-exposure bedroom with a beautiful dressing area and a mezzanine. Downstairs, a pretty and bright bathroom that embraces the garden. Next to it, a large bedroom with its oak slab parquet floor and beams. Attached to the house, a vast barn of two levels serving today as a garage offers numerous possibilities of development. The second level has more than seven meters at the top. The English garden is a little paradise. Enclosed by walls, it is tastefully furnished and reveals itself as you explore it. It offers its visitor various rest areas: first, adjoining the kitchen and the living room, a beautiful wooden terrace and its stone wall transformed into a bench, then, a fish pond, a vegetable garden with greenhouse and sheds charming, several terraces, rare essences such as a beautiful specimen of araucaria, groves of lavender, cherry trees, apple trees, all in a skilful play of shadow and light through which the house and the valley of the Petit Morin appears. At the far end, a gate opens onto a forest path. All amenities are in the immediate vicinity and La Ferté sous Jouarre, close, allows you to benefit from the advantages of a city. This house is a jewel in a pretty setting and will delight a family looking for their new home or city dwellers looking for a nice getaway away from the noise of the city.
