At the end of the drive, a vast gravelled courtyard, on a thick base of limestone rock, boasts parking capacity for several vehicles. The house possesses a uniquely styled wooden structure and is made up of living areas as well as sections dedicated to equestrian activity, including particularly a clubhouse with a lavatory, saddlery and equipment room. A dressage area, an agricultural storehouse used as a covered riding area, a wrought-iron garden pavilion and two square garden zones make up the rest of the property.

Our opinion
This is a resolutely atypical property, far away from any noise pollution or eyesores, with views over the undulating landscape typical of the sector around Sancerre. The countryside spirit pervades everything in this property that is ideal for relaxing, enjoying peace and quiet as well as partaking in horse riding, with many lanes nearby ideal for excursions on horseback. The environment provides a complete change of scenery, tranquillity and rejuvenation, with plenty of potential for further development and future purposes.
