Full Description


This superb manor house - formerly a farm belonging to the Cistercian monks of Mazan Abbey - has managed to survive the centuries while retaining all its splendor. Located near Aubenas in a protected setting in the heart of the Monts d'Ardèche Regional Natural Park, this property comprises three sandstone buildings set within a large plot of over five hectares, offering excellent development potential. The main house, measuring 330 sqm, sits atop beautiful vaulted cellars, which include two wine cellars, a laundry room, the original medieval kitchen, the pool equipment room, and a convenient shower room with Wc after sunbathing. A wide external staircase leads to the living areas on the first floor. A fully equipped kitchen opens onto an elegant living room featuring a beautiful fireplace, a French-style ceiling, and 12th-century flagstone flooring. A charming family bedroom with its own bathroom and Wc completes this level, which opens onto a shaded terrace adjoining the property's heated and secure swimming pool. A grand internal staircase leads to the upper floors. This leads you to the second floor of the house, where a hallway provides access to three spacious and bright east-facing bedrooms, each exquisitely furnished with meticulous attention to detail: solid wood floors, decorative marble fireplaces, and carefully chosen ethnic rice-leaf wallpapers designed by Béatrice Laval adorn the space. Each bedroom boasts an impeccably clean en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower and toilet. A final flight of stairs then provides easy access to the top floor, where a useful office and two spacious bedrooms with large west-facing skylights are nestled beneath a brand-new roof. Walk-In showers and toilets also grace this comfortable and tranquil sleeping area. You will also appreciate the building's thermal and acoustic comfort, achieved through the use of excellent natural insulation materials such as wood wool and cork. Two large, partially restored outbuildings flank the main house, including a former silkworm farm of 145 sqm built over cellars, comprising two reception rooms. An imposing contemporary fireplace... [Focus exit] Dominique Imbert's workshops grace a beautiful open space with high ceilings, laid out like a large living room. A second room with independent access lends itself to numerous projects, such as an artist's residency. The second outbuilding, measuring 110 sqm - the former stables and hayloft - has been recently roofed and fitted with new flooring, ideal for increasing the living space. It opens onto a charming patio with its tree-lined Zen garden and a respectable porch leading to a bucolic country lane. The well-maintained and landscaped grounds benefit from an ingenious rainwater harvesting and storage system, meeting the water needs of the garden and vegetable patch. Two valuable springs are also located on the wooded property. Beautiful clearings suggest ample space for horses or for developing your hospitality project. A shaded chicken coop has even found its place within this setting. This attractive manor house certainly has no shortage of features. It has many advantages and can even accommodate a whole family, just an hour from the Rhône Valley and a Tgv station. Video on demand
