Benais, Centre-Val de Loire 37140

Just minutes from amenities and nestled in the lush greenery typical of the Loire Valley, this architect-designed house, built in 1984, boasts distinctive lines in the charming village of Benais, set within a landscaped 4,500 sqm plot. From the moment you enter, the spaciousness is striking. The living area, conceived as a central and inviting space, encompasses a large living room, a dining room, and a fitted kitchen, all subtly arranged around a freestanding fireplace with a closed hearth. A true architectural signature, this fireplace creates a warm focal point at the heart of the home. A large bay window extends this space into a 24 sqm fully glazed veranda, bathed in natural light. In every season, it offers a seamless transition to the large terrace and swimming pool, inviting a particularly pleasant indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The ground floor also includes two bedrooms, each with windows framing views of the pool, a shower room, and a separate Wc. Below the living room, an office or playroom offers additional layout possibilities, ideal for working from home or leisure activities. A staircase leads to the upper floor, where two further bedrooms await, with the option to create a third, as well as a bathroom and a separate toilet. Outside, the landscaped garden provides a privileged living environment, balancing privacy with an unobstructed view of the vineyards. The 10 x 5 meter heated swimming pool blends harmoniously into this verdant setting. A spacious terrace, sheltered under a pergola and extending from the veranda, becomes the perfect setting for summer gatherings. An additional feature completes the property: a separate gîte of approximately 76 sqm with its own terrace. On the ground floor, it comprises a large open-plan living area combining a fully equipped kitchen, lounge, and dining room, a bedroom with a shower and sink, and a separate toilet. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a shower room with Wc offer the potential for a tourism business, a guest house, or a self-contained family space. A cellar carved into the rock completes this unique property. With its striking architecture, generous proportions, heated swimming pool, and rental potential, this property offers a rare lifestyle in the heart of a sought-after natural setting.
