Home description
The house is in the heart of a traditional French hill top village in the Razes with lovely views of the surrounding area. The imposing double front doors open onto a u-shaped hallway. Directly off the hallway is a king bedroom (11.5m²) , shower room (7m²) with large walk-in shower, washbasin, wc and washing machine and access to decked terrace. To the right of the hall a glazed door leads to the well equipped kitchen/diner (28m²) with attractive log burning stove. Off the kitchen a doorway leads into the spacious oak beamed lounge (36m²) with open fireplace. Another door returns you back into the hall (with access outside). In the lounge a stunning oak spiral staircase rises to the first floor, three spacious bedrooms (twin (10m²) , triple (10m²) and queen (18m²)) and a family bathroom (7m²) with bath with shower over, wc and wash basin.
Outside is a secluded large decked terrace, with swimming pool (approx 6m x 4m), and sun loungers. The terrace is perfect for catching the sun, eating alfresco and admiring the stunning views of the surrounding vineyards and countryside of the Malepere region of France.
