Atypical house with garden in the heart of Sancerre: heritage, art, wine and gastronomy. Direct owner sale – No additional agency fees
In the heart of the prestigious Piton of Sancerre, ranked among the Most Beautiful Villages in France, discover a 19th-century village house offering a unique living experience. This former boutique has been entirely reinvented into a family home by an architect specializing in wood structures, creating a contemporary loft spirit within a historical setting.
An architect's project: Design and Eco-conception Renovated with passion between 2019 and 2020, the house benefits from wood-fiber ecological insulation and custom wood cladding. This noble alliance between ancient stone and wood guarantees exceptional thermal comfort: natural coolness during sunny summers and gentle heat diffused by the pellet stove in winter.
A versatile layout (Residential or Commercial) Thanks to its privileged location on a central and busy shopping street (lively by day, quiet by night), the house offers rare commercial potential. Its structure would allow it to return to its original purpose as a boutique or art gallery.
Ground floor: A vast 45 sqm living space, including a cozy lounge and a fully equipped open kitchen. The dining room opens entirely onto a private 54 sqm garden—a rare privilege in the historic center. Mid-floor: A charming and bright room, ideal for a second bedroom or a home office. Upper floor: A refined sleeping area including a large dressing room, a spacious bathroom with a bathtub, and a vast master suite with a fireplace. Attic: Convertible to create two additional bedrooms and a bathroom.
The Sancerre Art of Living A world destination for wine and gastronomy lovers, Sancerre offers an idyllic lifestyle. Enjoy tastings at neighboring wineries, Michelin-starred restaurants, and the immediate proximity of the Loire River (UNESCO). From the jazz festival to hot-air balloon rides, every season reveals a new face of authentic France.
Technical Details: Surface: 125 sqm living space (155 sqm total floor area). Exterior: Private enclosed garden of 54 sqm. Basement: Authentic vaulted cellar, essential for storing local vintages. Energy Performance: EPC Rating C. For a 19th-century historical property, this rating is outstanding, reflecting modern energy efficiency standards thanks to high-quality eco-insulation. Access: 1h50 from Paris (A77), near Tracy-Sancerre train station.
