Cormatin, Burgundy 71460

The countryside between Cluny and Tournus is rich in fine old houses as well as its renowned Romanesque churches. Traditionally they are built above wine cellars and with covered external balconies leading into the living area. That is the case here, both for this house and for the neighbouring properties which form this quiet hamlet a few miles from Cormatin. The recent renovation has given a large living room with fireplace, plus a small but functional kitchen; thereafter a corridor leads to a Wc, bathroom and two bedrooms. While a spiral staircase in the living room gives access to the upper floor where there are three more bedrooms, a bathroom and Wc. Qt the rear a West-facing terrace overloooks the pretty garden with its fruit trees and shade-giving mature trees, plus a garden shed. Adjoining the house is an old barn and stable with hay-loft above. The grounds are large - over an acre in total - and the views unencumbered.
