Barriac-les-Bosquets, Auvergne 15700

Charming house with stunning views and swimming pool This characterful stone house, dating from 1814, is located on the edge of a picturesque French hamlet. With its thick walls, authentic details and tastefully carried out recent renovations, the property perfectly combines historic charm with modern comforts. You access the property through an elegant iron gate and a welcoming driveway. The first thing that strikes you is its beautiful south-facing location, on the edge of a traditional rural hamlet. The walled garden bordered by a Napoleonic style wall is carefully landscaped with fruit trees, vegetable garden and several terraces. From each of them, you can enjoy the sun and truly spectacular panoramic views: in the distance, the snow-capped peaks of the Cantal mountains, including the Puy Mary and the Puy Violent. The swimming pool (10 x 4.5 m) completes this serene outdoor setting. The bright living room (34 m2) offers high ceilings with exposed beams (2.2 m) and is distinguished by a superb handcrafted oak staircase as well as a remarkable authentic fireplace: a traditional cantou, typical of Auvergne, equipped with a modern wood insert. The adjoining renovated kitchen with dining area (25 m2) has an elegant travertine floor. Next to the living room is a spacious and bright room (18 m2), currently used as a billiard room but ideal as a bedroom or office. On the other side of the house is an independent annex of over 40 m2, with its own private entrance and terrace (20 m2). The annex includes a living room (19 m2), a bedroom (12 m2), a bathroom, a separate toilet and a small kitchen. Successfully rented for the first time last summer, it is also perfect for hosting guests, for multigenerational living or for living on one level. Upstairs The beautiful oak staircase leads upstairs, where there are three spacious bedrooms. Two of them share a modern bathroom with toilet. The master bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom with shower, WC and sink. Basement & Outbuildings The basement (67 m2) is accessible both from the living room and from the garden. It includes several practical rooms, including a storage area, a pantry and a workshop. There is also a 14.5 m2 garage, ideal to be converted into a summer kitchen, as well as a large barn of 48 m2 awaiting restoration, offering many possibilities.
