A nice house in a small village just by the Loire

Our 140m² house has been renovated in order to higlight its old stones.

The ground floor is fully opened, with a southern exposure and large bay-windows. The wide living-room contains a fireplace that we use to heat the house during winter, a library, a video corner with a video-projector, a piano, a game of darts and a table football. The access to the kitchen aera is opened too. We have a sofa-bed that can be use occasionally.
You will find a laundry room separated from the living-room, including separate toilets, a washing-machine, a dryer and a freezer.

Upstairs, there is a parental bedroom with a private wardrobe and a private bathroom (shower and toilet), close to an office.
There are also two bedrooms dedicated to children, a private bathroom (with a bath) and separate toilet. In Charlie’s bedroom there is a simple bed that could be transformed in a double bed. In Tya’s room we can put a second single bed.

Our cat and our dog live inside the house, they are very kind and a good company.

You can settle on the terrace thanks to our garden salon while the children are playing in the garden.
In the garage, two adult bikes, two child bike and a dandy horse for younger child will allow you to enjoy great rides along the Loire.
