House in Saint-Christophe-et-le-Laris, Drôme

Just a few minutes from the Palais Idéal du Facteur Cheval, this characterful former farmhouse, dating from 1905, has been fully renovated to provide a comfortable and well-maintained home. The property offers approximately 246 m² of living space, divided between a main house and an independent gîte, set within around 4.84 hectares of land. It also benefits from a private pond of approximately 2,000 m² with its own island, as well as numerous outbuildings.

The main house offers approximately 162 m² of living space. Several features recall the property's agricultural heritage, including exposed stone walls and wooden beams. The living areas are spacious and bright, with an open-plan kitchen and dining room, together with a separate sitting room. The house also includes several bedrooms and shower rooms, providing comfortable family living. The approximately 60 m² of attic space offers further potential for conversion, depending on the future owner's needs.

Adjoining the main house, the approximately 84 m² gîte has its own living space and offers a range of possibilities. It could naturally be used as a holiday rental or guest accommodation, but would also make an ideal independent space for family and friends. Its layout and separate access provide genuine privacy from the main part of the property.

The property extends over approximately 4.84 hectares, offering a peaceful setting with a variety of different areas and uses. At the heart of the grounds, a private pond of approximately 2,000 m², complete with its own island, gives the property a particularly distinctive character. Around the house, part of the land is enclosed and includes an orchard, natural areas and various spaces to enjoy the surroundings. The property offers considerable flexibility, whether for a family project, a hospitality business or simply for those looking for more space and privacy.

The outbuildings further enhance the property and offer a range of possible uses. A large garage of approximately 130 m² over two levels provides space for several vehicles, equipment or a workshop. The property also includes a traditional bread oven, a vaulted cellar and several storage areas, all reflecting its agricultural history.

The renovation has been carried out with the aim of preserving the character of the property while providing modern-day comfort. The house benefits from a heat pump, a wood-burning boiler stove, solar panels and a private borehole. Combined with the quality of the renovation, these features contribute to an excellent EPC rating of A. The result is an appealing balance between the character of a traditional farmhouse and the comfort expected of a modern home.

Located in the Drôme des Collines, the property enjoys a rural setting while remaining within easy reach of local amenities and major transport links. The village of Saint-Christophe-et-le-Laris is nearby, while Romans-sur-Isère and Valence provide access to a wider range of shops, services and infrastructure. The Palais Idéal du Facteur Cheval, one of the region's most renowned tourist attractions, is also just a few minutes away.

With its generous living space, extensive grounds, private pond and independent accommodation, this property offers a variety of possibilities: a family home, a hospitality project or simply a lifestyle offering space and privacy.
