A former farmhouse in a forest clearing, surrounded by woods and meadows, with 29 hectares of grounds, 45 minutes west of Paris near the town of Mézières-sur-Seine. The house is set back from the local town. You reach it at the end of a lane that winds through fields and woods. At the end of the lane, the dwelling finally comes into view. It stands in the middle of a vast clearing made up of meadows and orchards. It is surrounded by 29 hectares of grounds, made up of woods and meadows. It is a self-contained refuge, set back from bustle. It is a place where nature reigns. The main house offers a 308m² floor area. It has a noble yet simple appearance that is typical of rural dwellings in the area around Mantes-la-Jolie. Its pale facade is punctuated with large windows fitted with green shutters. It leads out into a garden filled with sunlight and protected by the edge of a forest. Inside, the ground floor has a small lounge and a vast rustic kitchen with walls of glazed green tiles. A majestic reception room - a former barn - takes up most of the ground floor. The upper sections of its walls are made of exposed stonework. Exposed roof beams run across the ceiling. The room features a monumental fireplace. A gallery looks down at the room. This vast space is both rustic and theatrical. With its old stonework, it embodies the conviviality of large family homes. Upstairs, beneath exposed roof beams, there are eight bedrooms and two shower rooms. Several outbuildings complete the property: a workshop, a pantry and different shelters, which bear witness to the estate's agricultural past. Today, they could be converted in many ways. Around the buildings, meadows blend gradually into the forest in a backdrop of rare harmony where nature reigns and fills the property with soothing calm. Though currently liveable, the house needs to be completely renovated, more visually than structurally.<br />
