Abitare Un Luogo Singolare Carico DI Storia

Living in a unique place steeped in history Renovated bourgeois residence in the heart of Val d’Argent At 650 meters altitude, on the edge of a forest, this property built in 1906 unfolds facing the landscapes of Val d’Argent. Its half-timbered silhouette, deep roofs, and distinctive turret create an immediately recognizable architecture. Once linked to a notable family of the valley, the house still bears traces of this history today. Set in a preserved natural environment, the property offers nearly 450 m² of living space. The estate combines a main residence and several independent guest areas, allowing for everyday living on site while hosting visitors. Around the buildings, nearly ten hectares of land extend the domain into an open landscape. Meadows, forest edges, and Vosges hills create a calm and open setting where the house seems to naturally find its place. Now known as ”La Tourelle,” the property has evolved over time. It has become both a lived-in home and a welcoming space, without losing the spirit of the original residence. LIFE IN THE HOUSE You enter a house that has stood the test of time. The old walls, generous volumes, and vaulted cellar recall the historic character of the place. The kitchen structures the ground floor. Designed as a central space, it naturally brings together residents and visitors. Light flows through the openings, revealing exposed beams and bright surfaces. The 45 m² living room extends this atmosphere. The windows frame the surrounding landscapes and let in the changing light of the Vosges. Adjacent to it, a slightly elevated wooden terrace opens the view onto the meadows and wooded slopes. Upstairs, three bedrooms and two bathrooms allow for a separate private area when hosting activity intensifies. An independent wing of about 120 m² welcomes visitors with an autonomous rhythm. The volumes are simple and bright, with separate entrances and a 50 m² terrace facing the landscape. The apartment accessible via the turret is one of the most distinctive elements of the property. This vertical entrance marks the architectural identity of the house and recalls its history. Thus, the house does not just juxtapose functions: it simply allows living and hosting in the same place. AN ESTATE OPEN TO THE LANDSCAPE The property is set in rolling terrain that widely opens the views. From the house, the view embraces wooded ridges, meadows below, and scattered hamlets of Val d’Argent. This dominant position provides a sense of space and perspective. The adjoining lands cover nearly ten hectares, mostly meadows, complemented by about two hectares of forest. A vegetable garden is already in place. A well and several springs, including two exploited ones, contribute to the site’s balance. Outbuildings cover about 800 m² and complete the ensemble: barn, shed, workshop, cellar, and garages. Three covered parking spaces are also available. Heating is provided by a wood chip boiler, fueled by forest chips, naturally integrating into this wooded environment. Here, the buildings and landscape work together. VAL D’ARGENT Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines is located in the heart of the Vosges massif, in Haut-Rhin. The Val d’Argent territory alternates deep forests, open meadows, and ridge lines. At this altitude, the air is clearer and silence more present. The light changes with the seasons and highlights the reliefs. The valley remains lively and dynamic while maintaining a true quality of calm and nature. AGENCY OPINION This property combines characterful architecture, vast natural spaces, and hosting potential. The emblematic turret, interior volumes, and dominant position give the place a strong identity. A rare property for a buyer wishing to live in a place rich in history while developing a hosting activity, in a preserved environment. Marion JULLY (EI) Commercial Agent - RSAC Number: - .
