Home description

This is a newly acquired and renovated property. The decor is both modern but also captures the French style with antiques and objets d'art. There is a large living room with large widows at both ends. There is a dining room leading off the bright, modern kitchen, seating ten people. There is another larger dining room for more formal meals. The chartreuse is traditionally on one level with all five bedrooms leading off a long oak floored corridor. Access to the grounds is via various doors and one long terrace is to be found overlooking the surrounding fields. The sun and shade can be obtained throughout the day around the outside of the property. Hammocks and seats are located between various trees around the tranquil fish-pond set amongst the park area. The tennis court is again set in a position where uninterrupted views of the fields can be enjoyed. This house is for families and groups of friends to enjoy each other's company at a leisurely pace.

There are rivers for boating and fishing, and unending countryside for walking and picnics.
