Burzet, Rhône 07450

Situated at the foot of the Ardèche mountains, this former small mill, built from local stone, offers an idyllic and bucolic setting, lulled by the murmur of a stream. A unique place, brimming with charm and authenticity, ideal for lovers of nature and carefully curated vintage décor. This unique property offers real potential as a family home, a tourist accommodation or a hybrid lifestyle project in the Ardèche, like an invitation to slow down time in this inspiring atmosphere. Currently divided into three separate living units, the building offers complete flexibility: the different spaces have independent access and can very easily be combined to form a single, large family home. The owner's main residence comprises a large, cosy living room with a fitted, fully equipped open-plan kitchen, a master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, and a small terrace. The holiday cottage, which is highly rated and well-reviewed by holidaymakers, is a self-contained unit comprising a living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms, a bathroom and its own private terrace with a lovely, peaceful and relaxing view of the garden and the village. Ideal for immediate rental income with the option to purchase the furniture. The third property, currently being renovated, is a self-contained flat to be finished to your requirements (accommodating guests, extending the holiday let or as an artist's studio). The grounds and terraces surround the house and enjoy a privileged dual aspect, with a beautiful, unobstructed view overlooking the village. There are spots for relaxing and unwinding at the rear of the building and by the stream, spanned by a small wooden bridge, offering a variety of spaces that provide a lovely sense of privacy. The garden, known as a 'Faïsses' (in the local dialect), is dotted with fruit trees and features a lovely natural spring with its traditional pond, which could be used to water a vegetable garden. The house is connected to mains drainage the heating systems are independent, comprising reversible air conditioning, electric radiators and wood-burning stoves. Burzet is a lively village all year round. The school and local shops are a two-minute walk away, and there are superb wild swimming spots for the summer in the gorges of the Bourges, a river with pure, cool waters, right on the doorstep. Just 25 minutes from Aubenas and Vals-les-Bains. A property full of character, somewhere between a family home and an inspired retreat, where the authentic spirit of the Ardèche seems to have found its most beautiful setting.
