Location
Ideally located between Versailles and Saint-Germain-en-Laye, the village of Saint-Nom-la-Bretèche is surrounded by farmland and bordered by the Marly national forest. Internationally renowned for the prestigious Saint-Nom Golf Club, the village has several old houses in the village centre and modern buildings on the outskirts.
The property is a 5-minute walk from the market square and shops, as well as nursery and primary schools. From the station, which is 5 minutes' drive away in the forest, you can access La Défense in 30 minutes and Saint-Lazare in 40 minutes via the Transilien train L line. You can take tram line 13 express to Saint-Germain-en-Laye and Saint-Cyr.
Description
Accessed directly from the porch via a sheltered outside staircase, the front door opens onto a landing which leads to a toilet, shower room and cloakroom. A half-turn wooden staircase with a landing leads to the living room, which features exposed beams and a light-coloured oak fireplace carved with geometric patterns. An open-plan kitchen, that needs to be fitted out forms an L-shape with the main room. The kitchen is lit by a window that overlooks the garden. There are also a bedroom and shower room on this floor.
On the floor above, parts of the roof structure – rafters, purlins and joists – have been left exposed in the two bedrooms, bathroom and toilet, leaving the ceiling high. This duplex apartment has been partially refurbished with new rendering, insulation, windows, heating and paintwork. The roof is currently being remade. All that still needs to be done is to finish fitting out the apartment.
Outside, in the garden, two parking spaces are kept free for the future occupants.
Our opinion
Set in a very quiet location in the village, this typical former farmhouse, built from local stone, is part of a complex of four buildings. Although it is an old building, and many of its historic features have been renovated, the layout of this duplex apartment is highly original, and its brightness gives the place a modern feel.
A property perfectly suited to a young family looking for green surroundings with timeless charm, elegance, space and everyday comfort.
