Former workshop - Vacation rental and guest rooms in Poligny
In Poligny, in the heart of the lively and gourmet Jura region, this former workshop, classified as a historic monument, boasts extraordinary architecture, supported by the rigor of its layout and the beauty of its façade, designed as a work of art. Here, the stone tells a story of transmission, know-how, and craftsmanship, in a place that was once dedicated to glass and materials. The volumes are impressive without ever being overwhelming, the high ceilings create a rare sense of space, and the antique details give everyday life a special richness. Today, the property is home to a residence, a bed and breakfast, and a turnkey cottage, all in a warm, creative, and deeply unique atmosphere. An exceptional property in Poligny, for a different way of living or entertaining.
Architecture conceived as a language
This place cannot be visited like an ordinary house. It is read, almost, like a musical score. Listed as a historic monument, the former workshop bears the mark of an architect whose work has left its mark on Poligny: Narcisse Perrard. The façade, with its remarkable proportions, is part of a logic of geometry and symbols, where rigor becomes aesthetics. Inside, this coherence can be felt in the way the volumes unfold. The high ceilings give an immediate sense of space, while the exposed beams and old parquet flooring extend the soul of the building. The atmosphere is lively, artistic, and confident, leaving room for imagination without ever compromising on comfort.
The layout favors a fluid, single-level lifestyle, designed to welcome guests. The spaces are generously organized, allowing for multiple uses: a unique townhouse, a reception venue, or an already structured hospitality business. The numerous bedrooms offer precious privacy, and four suites have their own bathrooms, reinforcing the feeling of autonomy and comfort. The living room, with its perfect proportions, becomes a warm anchor point. Here, entertaining is not a project, it is a given, inspired by the space itself.
A breath of fresh air by the water
Rarely does a property in the city center offer such a direct connection to the river. The view opens onto this moving, soothing presence, which accompanies the seasons and gives everyday life a sense of perspective. The flat, walled grounds create an intimate outdoor space, sheltered from prying eyes, with an almost private atmosphere despite the central location. Two terraces naturally extend the house. One invites shared meals, the other more peaceful moments, in simple harmony with the air, the foliage, and the rhythm of the city fading into the distance.
The outdoor layout is designed to be enjoyed without constraints. The gravel courtyard provides several parking spaces, which are invaluable in the heart of Poligny. The usable ancillary areas add a practical and evolving dimension, ideal for accompanying a bed and breakfast business. Everything here reinforces the idea of a functional but never mundane place: a coherent whole, ready to welcome family life as well as a life focused on hospitality. The exterior then becomes a natural continuation of the interior experience: a space for breathing, welcoming, and gentleness.
Poligny, a Burgundy town in the Jura to explore
Poligny is a town on a human scale, deeply rooted in a region of character. It exudes a gentle energy, combining heritage, gastronomy, and landscapes. Shops are within easy reach, schools structure daily life, and residents enjoy a lively town center without sacrificing proximity to nature. Poligny also has a unique identity, that of Comté cheese, whose culture permeates the region. The Maison du Comté, the historical remains, and the urban walks create a setting where history is never decorative: it is part of the rhythm of life.
Around it, the Jura offers a rare diversity. The remote valleys, waterfalls, springs, and viewpoints make up a landscape of constant discovery. The vineyards, iconic villages, and hiking trails invite you to explore, breathe, and marvel without seeking to achieve anything extraordinary. Arbois, Château-Chalon, Salins-les-Bains, and the great natural sites of the Jura mountains create a sought-after lifestyle, combining wine culture, unspoiled landscapes, and the art of living. I
