Silhac, Rhône 07240

Nestled in the heart of Silhac's unspoilt countryside, 15 minutes from Vernoux-en-Vivarais and an hour from Valence, this 220 m² stone house stands on a plot of nearly 2 hectares. Entirely and tastefully renovated, it strikes a subtle balance between old-world charm and modern comfort. Several terraces, a pool area and carefully landscaped grounds create a privileged living environment, almost suspended in time. The interior boasts generous proportions, starting with an impressive cathedral-style living room with ceilings over 5 metres high. The bespoke fitted kitchen opens onto a convivial dining room, whilst a lounge with a working fireplace extends the warm atmosphere. An office or library completes this level. The sleeping area comprises four bedrooms, including an elegant 45 m² suite with a lounge area and en-suite bathroom. Two further shower rooms ensure comfort and convenience. On the garden level, a space has been fitted out as a laundry room. Outside, the south- and west-facing terraces invite you to savour every moment of the day. The pool area, boules court and shaded spots (wisteria, mulberry tree?) create a truly relaxed lifestyle. Situated in a secluded hamlet with just two other properties, the property enjoys absolute peace and quiet whilst remaining close to amenities. In terms of technical features, heating is provided by a gas boiler with a tank, and the roof was renovated in 2012. Supplied by a private spring, the house combines self-sufficiency with authenticity. A barn/workshop (10,000) and a sheepfold in need of renovation (50,000) are available as optional extras, opening the door to exciting additional projects. With its preserved character, generous spaces and potential for development, this property in the Ardèche fully embodies the spirit of unique property. An inspiring location, ideal for a life in the countryside.
