A manor house and a swimming pool on 5,600-m² grounds, 30 minutes from a high-speed rail station, in the middle of a village within the Sâone-et-Loire department. From the street, a wrought-iron gate and a pedestrian door both open onto a wide central path, which, after ascending a flight of stone steps, leads to the house's front door. Built in the 17th century, the main dwelling, located in the middle of its tree-filled garden, was thoroughly reorganised in the 19th century, providing it with its current configuration. Rectangular in shape, the two-storey building's main façade, nearly symmetrical, is flanked on either side by two taller wings as well as a one-storey extension to the south, while the entire dwelling is topped with a barrel tile roof, typical of the region, and surrounded by a patio. Mostly enclosed by stone walls, the property also includes a swimming pool, slightly set back, and an adjacent summer kitchen, thereby creating a separate outdoor living space during the summer months. It should be noted that thanks to its meticulous upkeep and periodic renovations, the property is in overall good condition.
