Burgundy Winegrowers' Houses

These winegrowers' houses are typical from the Burgundy region of France. They are large wood and stone properties ideal if you are looking for a house with B & B potential. They also are French traditional houses so charm comes as standard.

Winegrowers' houses are properties made of stone, this material being massively used in Burgundy; notably inside the house. Beams are exposed inside the traditional winegrower's property. A large stone chimney is generally to be found in the living room. The ceiling, stairs and many other parts of the house like the pieces of furniture are generally made of wood.

These Burgundy properties obviously have narrow links with the neighbouring vineyards, not only because they are located in the middle of one of the most famous winegrowing areas in the world but also because the whole house layout is dedicated to the production of wine.

These traditional French houses generally come with a pigeonnier, often being a tower and increasing if needed the majestic aspect of the house. The pigeonnier tower in the most luxurious Burgundy wine grower’s properties is located close to a gallery, being in fact a roofed terrace accessible via the entrance stairs.

The roof is generally steeply pitched, and outside stairs allow access to the first floor. In many modern properties though, the stairs obviously take place inside the house.
