Beautifully Converted 19th Century Wine Cave Located in the Middle of a Village

PRICE: 650,000 Euros.  (£562,000 approx.)

 


THE HOUSE AN OVERVIEW: 

Brimming with character and tastefully restored, La Folie is a large, bright home of generous proportions. It dates back to 1875 and was originally a wine cave where the local wine growers brought their vines for harvesting. One of the bedrooms still has the lift used to haul the vines into the cave. There is central heating throughout the house and two of the bedrooms have air conditioning.

Though positioned in the centre of the village, it has a totally private garden surrounded by high stone walls. The garden has been thoughtfully developed with Mediterranean planting resulting in low maintenance. There is a swimming pool (8m x 4m) and a well equipped fish pond with filtration system and automatic water top up. The property is serviced by a well.

Private parking behind electric gates is available as well as ample private parking to front of property.
