Autun, Burgundy 71400

Just 20 minutes from Autun, in the hills above the village of Cussy-en-Morvan, I present this longère (traditional farmhouse) with great potential. Its 1182 m² plot offers a peaceful setting. The 136 m² house comprises 8 rooms on two levels. From the small veranda, which serves as the entrance, you enter a well-equipped kitchen. At the far end, a staircase leads to the first floor. To the right, a room overlooking the courtyard serves as a ground-floor bedroom and adjoins a shower room and a separate WC. To the left, the living room boasts a magnificent French-style ceiling that enhances the property's authenticity. An open fireplace is visible, and the original terracotta floor tiles have been well-maintained. The windows are double-glazed and of good quality, some of which are tilt-and-turn. These windows have roller shutters powered by a solar system. Upstairs, to the right are two spacious bedrooms, and on the other side, a small vestibule leads to a bathroom with toilet and a newly created room, the result of a craftsman's work. From this bright new space, a door opens onto the magnificent attic. This attic offers real potential, enhanced by an insulated floor that partially rests on the first garage. Outside, as this is a traditional longhouse, the outbuildings continue. Beyond the first garage, a small, former outbuilding is visible, followed by a final building at garden level, which leads to the second garage. Above, a comfortable staircase leads to a large room. The owners call this the "billiard room," a space used for convivial gatherings with family and friends. Just at the entrance to the courtyard, an exterior door provides access to a vaulted cellar. At the far end of the courtyard, the garden opens onto a lovely panorama typical of the Morvan countryside. Fruit trees grace the lower part of the property, which also benefits from a shared well. The property is located in an area served by mains drainage. Heating is provided by gas-fired radiators. Cussy-en-Morvan has a few local shops: a well-stocked grocery store, a community café, and a post office. The village is 20 minutes from the historic town of Autun, and about an hour from Beaune and Dijon. The TGV station at Le Creusot is 50 minutes away. The Lac des Settons is less than half an hour away, and hiking trails begin just outside the village. Ideal as a family home thanks to the local schools, this property also lends itself to a wonderful holiday home project. The fees are to be paid by the seller.
