Relax and discover the unspoiled nature in a cozy, authentically restored 1860 manor house in the middle of the Parc Régional des Volcans d'Auvergne nature reserve. The house is located near a river in the beautiful "Vallée de Cheylade", one of the 5 valleys around the monumental Puy Mary (1789m). There is a beautiful sun-facing rose garden, of 1000 m2 next to two terraces in front and behind the house. The orientation is south-facing with a pleasant sunset on the front facade. The space Very cozy and beautiful country house with lots of character. The house has a country style and is tastefully finished with beautiful and durable materials, natural stone floor in the living room, solid oak plank floors in the bedrooms. Furnished with all modern comforts, vintage design furniture and new good beds and mattresses. The living room has two cozy high-efficiency wood stoves that give the house a separate cozy charm during the winter period. There are 3 bedrooms on the first floor with an additional (summer) sleeping space on the former hay attic under the beautiful roof truss where an extra double bed and bunk bed is provided. Sleeping on the attic floor, which is therefore not a real "bedroom," you can hear the nearby river rustling, and there is a rural primitive but cozy atmosphere under the wooden roof construction. Children and young people find this a rather adventurous place to sleep. This space is very warm during the day in summer but nicely cooled in the evening because the house is in the mountains at 1100m altitude, which ensures very pleasant temperatures in the evening. More info and videos can be found on the website of cellist Arne Deforce. Other things to note Those who love nature, silence and an authentic living/holiday home will particularly appreciate this pristine region. At 150 meters from a dead-end street, there are 2 more permanently occupied houses of the local cheese farmer. All amenities and shops (including supermarkets) can be found in the small town of Riom és Montagnes, a bakery can be found very close at 1.5 Km in the villages of Apchon or Cheylade.
