A House Near Fontainebleau

Property Description

A family home only 1 hour from Paris and 20 minutes from Fontainebleau, in the heart of unspoilt nature.
In a peaceful village in the south of the Seine et Marne, nestled between rivers, forests and listed meadows, this remarkable authentic stone farmhouse from 1880, completely renovated by two minimalist architects, offers a fabulous family universe and various spaces where contemporary comfort blends wonderfully with the charm of the old. Ideal as a large weekend house to receive many guests, or as a main residence with spaces suitable for teleworking, 15 minutes from the Ter and 20 minutes from the international school, INSEAD and the grandes écoles of Fontainebleau.
Behind its discreet façade is an elegant and bright residence, facing south, protected from view and lulled by the singing of birds. The soul of the farmhouse reigns there: thick walls of rubble blocks, floors in natural stone or hand-made terracotta tiles, exposed beams, brass door handles, two large fireplaces, a bread oven, old wooden windows with small panes... Everything has been restored with respect for the place, with natural materials and a demand for quality down to the smallest detail. Sanitation in accordance with the regulations, efficient insulation, plumbing and electricity completely redone.
The house develops more than 400 m² on two levels, with six bedrooms, five bathrooms (four of which are in Arabescato marble and one in limestone), an 80 m² living room, a 39 m² billiard room, a vaulted wine cellar, and even a "dormitory-chalet" for children and other passing guests.
Whether it's a hike in the woods, a sunrise jog between the golden fields, a horseback ride in the nearby stables or a course on one of the two nearby golf courses, the sauna awaits you to prolong the serenity of the moment.
A wing, accessible by an independent staircase, houses a 53 m² master suite designed as an intimate haven. The house can, if required, be easily divided into two separate entities - an ideal solution for a multi-generational project, a workshop or accommodation.
The 4,420 m² plot is home to 30 mature trees of species representative of the regional plant heritage, where each season becomes a spectacle, in perfect communion with 35 species of birds. A huge cherry tree offers a juicy harvest, a remarkable lime tree is the mascot of the garden, a south-facing terrace invites you to dinners under the stars, an old well and a wooden shed complete the premises. A swimming pool permit has already been granted.
Finally, a superb stone barn of 180 m² of floor area, with its intact roof, connected to the water and electricity networks, completes the property. It offers tremendous potential to create a guest house, a reception area, an artist's studio or any other destination according to your desires.
A rare property, located in an environment of exceptional ecological richness, perfect for lovers of authenticity.
Let yourself be seduced by the light, the space and the omnipresent nature of this unrivalled fairytale place, where simplicity and elegance reign.
