Authentic farmhouse to renovate - A haven of peace in Vaulruz (FR)
Located in the heart of the Fribourg countryside, this superb traditional farmhouse for renovation represents a rare opportunity for lovers of authenticity, nature and beautiful projects. Built in 1852, on a generous 2,460 m² plot, it is set away from the village of Vaulruz, in a peaceful, leafy setting, yet offers direct, fast access to regional infrastructures.
The main building, listed under protection class 2, offers around 220 m² of living space, divided into five rooms, with much greater potential for development thanks to its accessible attic space, adjoining barn and a total usable area of around 500 m². The built volume amounts to around 3,850 m³, providing an ideal basis for an ambitious renovation project, whether for a main residence, a communal residence full of character or a tourist project in the countryside.
The first floor comprises a kitchen, living room, bathroom and two bedrooms. Upstairs, there are three additional bedrooms and direct access to the barn deck. The attic is also accessible and could be converted according to the future owner's wishes. Heating is currently provided by a wood-burning stove, lending a warm atmosphere to the dwelling, which remains habitable in rudimentary comfort, pending renovation.
Outside, the property features a large flat plot with a vegetable patch, a barn accessible from the rear, a concrete garage for up to three vehicles, and several outdoor parking spaces. The water supply is provided by a private drinking water source, and a septic tank is in place (not connected to mains water or wastewater).
The property is just two minutes from the freeway (Vaulruz), six minutes from the Bulle exit, and around twenty-five minutes from the urban centers of Fribourg or Vevey. The village center of Vaulruz and its amenities can be reached in less than two minutes by car, giving this farm a perfect balance between rural tranquility and proximity to services.
Rare on the market, this property is a real invitation to dream and build. Whether you're a lover of fine stonework, an investor or looking for a new way of life in the countryside, this farmhouse to renovate offers you a unique setting, generous volumes and an enchanting environment.
