Charming Village House With Great Extension Possibilities

In the heart of the village of Menthon-Saint-Bernard, sheltered from prying eyes and the hustle and bustle, this 18th-century residence reveals behind its discreet facade superb volumes steeped in history. From the entrance, time seems to slow down: stone, ancient wood, and authentic materials create a soft, peaceful, and deeply warm atmosphere. The house is organized around beautiful living spaces, where every detail tells a story from a bygone era. On the ground floor, the entrance paved with ancient stones welcomes an elegant stone staircase, the true backbone of the house. A workshop room, currently a creative space, could easily become an office or a future bathroom. The living room, with its open kitchen and dining area, opens onto a charming 28 m² paved courtyard, intimate and protected, a true outdoor haven for sunny days. A more subdued lounge area and separate toilets complete this level. Upstairs, two large bedrooms of 17 and 15 m² offer distinct atmospheres: one warmed by an ancient fireplace, the other extended by a balcony overlooking the village. A contemporary bathroom harmoniously integrates into the whole. This level also features an unrenovated part, remaining in its original 18th-century state: a spacious room with an old parquet floor, full of character, offering magnificent renovation prospects. The attic, consisting of two large attics, further opens up possibilities, allowing for extensions or additional living spaces. Outside, the large paved courtyard, completely sheltered from view, is enhanced by a charming mazot, adding a rare soul to the place right in the village center. Ideally located, the house allows for easy walking access to shops, schools, and the shores of the lake. Already carefully renovated in the late 1990s (plumbing and electricity), it offers a particularly warm living area while retaining strong potential for evolution. The double-glazed wooden windows, replaced in 2019, ensure thermal and acoustic comfort, especially on the street side. Authentic, adaptable, and full of charm, this village house will appeal to lovers of beautiful stone, restoration projects, or anyone seeking a unique living space, steeped in history and tranquility.
