La Pastorale

Françoise & Emmanuel open the doors of an elegant "bourgeois" residence of character built in 1898, steeped in "local" history & carefully restored (formerly the residence of the "master glassmaker" who created the stained glass windows of the nearby Saint-Vincent Cathedral), nestled in the heart of a small residential hamlet, on the edge of an important town in the "peri-urban" Chalonnaise countryside, with many shops & services (several supermarkets) and notable sports & leisure facilities (beautiful outdoor swimming pool in "vintage" style). A peaceful, unspoiled rural setting, nestled on the edge of fields and gentle meadows, bordering the vast Givry state forest (the literal "green lung" of the 1100-hectare area, perfect for leisurely walks or mountain biking), a stone's throw from a small, fish-filled river, and not far from the Côte Chalonnaise vineyards and the banks of the Saône (a paradise for anglers and kayakers, partly protected as a Natura 2000 and ZNIEFF site for its rich flora and fauna). The cottage offers excellent comfort. Its warm, rustic charm blends contemporary style with shabby chic touches, creating a truly unique atmosphere (wood paneling and molded doors, a superb staircase, period parquet floors, exposed beams and rafters). A zen and cozy ambiance. A charming, intimate flower garden with a lovely shaded terrace area under a reed screen. Access to the property's garden (3500m²) and its ping-pong table.
