This 5-bedroom barn conversion manages to strike the perfect balance between the traditional and the contemporary. The property is arranged as two separate dwellings: the main house and an independent gite. There’s a pretty garden, lovely countryside views and a large barn and workshop.  
Main house: 

The main house has generous living spaces and a south-west aspect. Curved walls and arched openings create a natural flow between rooms. The entrance hall is bright, with a fountain feature, and opens onto a double-height dining hall. 

The modern kitchen is designed as a sociable space for cooking and dining and there are three separate reception rooms. 

The ground floor also includes a WC, utility room, storage and service room, plus a temperature-controlled wine cellar and pantry.

Upstairs are two bedroom suites, located at opposite ends of the house. Each has its own bathroom and WC. The main suite also includes a large walk-in wardrobe.

There are two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom, a separate WC, and an additional room suitable as an office or nursery.

The house has double glazing on the east side and triple glazing on the west. Central heating is provided by an oil burner, with radiators individually controlled remotely via a Honeywell system. Hot water is supplied by individual electric tanks.

Gite: 

The gite (guest house) is single-storey with a more rustic feel. A galley kitchen, located in the former stables and forge, leads into a comfortable living and dining area with original beams and a wood burner.

The layout includes an office area, a combined bathroom and WC, and a spacious double bedroom with built-in storage and exposed beams. 

The gîte is centrally heated and fully double glazed.

Outside

The total plot measures about 0.7 of an acre and consists of a grassed area with a covered terraced area, perfect for al fresco dining. 

A hangar offers parking for two cars, along with extensive storage and a closed workshop area. 
There is also a separate large workshop with its own access and yard. 

Location: 

The property is set in a small hamlet in the southern Loire Valley, with open farmland views and a peaceful rural setting. Saumur, with its historic centre and château, is around 30 km away, while Montreuil-Bellay is approximately 20 km away.

Three international airports with low-cost flights are within an hour and a half by car, and rail services connect to Saumur.

The nearest village is 3.4 km away and offers everyday amenities including a small supermarket with bakery, post office services, pharmacy, doctor, hairdresser and primary school.
