Property Description
I
In the beautiful setting of the Cèze valley, this imposing property is built on the ancient ramparts of the medieval, village of Montclus, listed amongst 'Beautiful Village of France' and enjoys a prime hilltop location overlooking its grounds, which stretch right down to the banks of the Cèze.
Dating back to around the 15th century, the building's original purpose has changed over the years: it has been a 'maison bourgeoise', a farm and a silkworm farm.
It became a home again when Montclus was rediscovered in the mid-twentieth century, and underwent extensive renovation in the 1990s.
The property offers 362 m2 of living space over two levels, plus vaulted cellars on the garden floor.
