Situated on a plot of 835 m², the property currently consists of three distinct areas: living space, offices, and barn.
The 5.5-room living area (approx. 145 m² living space) offers a warm atmosphere with old parquet floors and exposed beams. The kitchen was renovated in 2021, and the interior paintwork has been recently redone. Two large cellars as well as a technical room with laundry facilities complete this space.
The old stable has been converted into two heated offices totaling approx. 33 m², perfect for an independent activity, a practice, or a teleworking space.
The central barn, currently used as a two-level storage area, offers excellent potential for the creation of an additional dwelling.
