Grézels, Midi-Pyrénées 46700

Located near the river, in the Lot valley between vineyards and hills, this property is a true invitation to travel back in time. This old winemaker's house is a jewel of authenticity with an atmosphere faithful to its era respecting the original style. With its exposed beams, high ceilings, oak and poplar parquet floors and generous volumes, it has retained all the charm of the period. An elegant entrance way from the garden courtyard to a central corridor serves as the axis of circulation from which all rooms radiate offering a sense of symmetry, flow and privacy. This functional design allows natural light to reach each room while maintaining a harmonius circulation throughout the house.  The generous sized kitchen/dining room features a 'cantou' fireplace and wood burning stove, an old stone sink, oak parquet floor, a central island and double aspect large windows looking out over the garden. Magnificent views from the sitting room with poplar floor and french windows opening onto a secret garden and terrace overlooking the valley and the wooded hills. Two spacious bedrooms, both with double aspect windows and a large bathroom with a view complete the living accommodation.  Entirely built on cellars of around 80m2 and with an attic suitable for conversion of 130 m2 accessible by a beautiful and comfortably large and solid staircase.
