Set on the edge of a hamlet, this mid-19th century barn has been completely restored and converted into a house. The two-storey main building stands on the west side of the property's two adjoining south/north facing plots. It is set in the midst of gardens, copses and flowerbeds, plains, valleys and woods. The property is accessed from a road running west along the southern plot of land. A tree-lined driveway leads to a parking area with the garage annex to the west. A pedestrian access leads east to the vegetable plot and a garden shed.

A flagstone path leads to the front of the house, facing east and bordered by a gravelled flowerbed. To the south-west of the building, there is a garden room covered by a pergola; to the north-east, a recent extension has been built. The two buildings have Spanish-style slate roofs. The walls of the old barn have been partially preserved. The facades, with windows and doors on all four sides, look out onto the countryside. To the north of the house, the view extends to the second plot, with its undulating meadow bordered by trees and flat areas and crossed by a stream.

The house has around 200 m² of living space. The ground floor comprises a dining room with an open-plan kitchen and an inglenook fireplace, a lounge, a study and a utility room and access to the two outside terraces. Upstairs, above the original building, there are three bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room and convertible attic space. The windows and doors are double-glazed.

The house

The ground floor
The house has several entrances, including two main doors to the east.

The first opens directly onto a dining room with an open kitchen. The floor is light grey polished concrete. The walls combine exposed stone with surfaces painted in neutral tones. The ceiling features an exposed structure composed of solid wood beams and joists. The kitchen features a row of wooden cabinets with flat, golden-oak-colored fronts, a black granite countertop, and built-in appliances. A wooden staircase, leaning against the side wall, provides access to the upper floor. A double glass door opens onto a living room with a wood-burning stove. The floor is parquet, and the ceiling features painted beams that define the space lengthwise. The windows provide natural side lighting that highlights the materials, particularly the wood and stone.

The second door leads to a hallway with a terracotta tile floor. It opens onto an office furnished with bookshelves and wood paneling on a wooden floor, a landing with a coat closet, then a laundry room lit by two windows—one of which is a French door—as well as a half-bath and a storage room.
The upstairs
A landing leads to three bedrooms and a bathroom and a separate toilet. To the south, a door opens onto the master bedroom with high ceilings, recalling the original construction, with glimpses of the beams lined with insulation. It has a wardrobe and a shower room, a double washbasin and toilet. To the west, a large four-panel window opens onto a private terrace of almost 22 m² with stone paving. The floors are wide solid wood planks, and the walls are painted white, green, or light blue.
The attic
With a surface area of almost 30 m², it can be accessed via a retractable ladder from a door above the entrance door, inside the third bedroom. The walls and ceilings, covered in bare plasterboard panels, have been insulated with a view to giving this additional room a new function other than that of storage space. There is also a hot water tank that supplies all the rooms in the house.
