Description

A Hamlet of Your Own, Near Roquecor Some people dream of owning a house in France. This is for people who’d like five of them, plus a pigeon tower. Through a stone archway sits a charming 18th-century hamlet of honey-coloured stone buildings, set in 3 hectares of established gardens and grounds with sweeping views over the surrounding countryside. It currently runs as a substantial gîte complex, and it has room to become a family compound, a retreat, a wedding venue or a creative hideaway. It comes with three swimming pools, a tennis court and enough space for everyone to have their own front door. The Interior and Garden The Main House is where the period charm really shows off. It has three bedrooms, oak floors, beamed ceilings and a magnificent stone fireplace that has been warming toes for more than two centuries. Oil central heating keeps things cosy in winter, and in summer the large terrace and private swimming pool take over. The Pigeon Tower has been beautifully converted and is ideal for a couple. It has terracotta floors and double glazing, and the pigeons moved out a long time ago. The Third House is a generous four-bedroom home full of character. It has another magnificent fireplace, a rustic country kitchen, original terracotta floors, exposed beams, oil heating and its own private pool. The Fourth House has one bedroom plus a mezzanine, a fitted kitchen, tiled floors and oil heating. It suits guests, friends, or relatives you love but would rather keep at a pleasant distance. The Fifth House has one bedroom, a modern fitted kitchen, tiled floors, double glazing and oil central heating. It also has a private pool hidden behind its own hedge, for those who like to swim without an audience. Outside there’s an open barn made for long lunches and longer dinners. There are also various barns and outbuildings waiting for their next chapter, garaging for three cars and plenty of parking. If you’ve been looking for a lifestyle change that also brings in a substantial income, you may just have found it. The Area The hamlet sits in a quiet spot near Roquecor, one of the area’s most sought-after villages. Roquecor has shops, a bar, restaurants, a weekly market and a real village community.
