The mas, beautifully renovated in 2015 with respect for the site and materials, offers a generous living area of 233 m2. On the ground floor, the living spaces have been opened up to enjoy spacious areas with a 54 m2 living room and a 27 m2 kitchen facing due south. A large entrance, a laundry room, and a garage complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, an office with a high ceiling under the roof and a corridor leading to 4 bedrooms and 3 adjoining bathrooms, all fully redesigned to meet modern comfort standards.
The property has been equipped for less than 2 years with 2 pellet stoves, one ceramic and the other an insert in the existing fireplace. Heating is supplemented by electric radiators in each room. In January 2024, the owners installed photovoltaic panels that generate near electrical self-sufficiency.
The north facade and the attic were insulated more recently in 2017, and all windows throughout the house are double-glazed.
Outside, a nearly 50 m2 swimming pool fits perfectly into the enchanting setting near the former horse stables, now serving as a pool house. The park, planted with century-old plane trees and lindens, is perfectly maintained.
