CORDES-SUR-CIEL - Situated just a five-minute drive from local shops, this property enjoys a peaceful setting with stunning views over Cordes-sur-Ciel from the hillsides of Saint-Marcel. The house and the pigeonnier were built in 2012 on landscaped grounds exceeding 5000 sqm, with the main house offering around 170 sqm of living space, and approximately 45 sqm in the dovecote plus outdoor areas, including two terraces. The entrance is via a covered porch, leading into a hall that opens onto a spacious double reception room exceeding 60 sqm, complete with a fireplace and high-efficiency log-burning stove. The open-plan kitchen, in an Art Deco style with granite worktops, blends seamlessly into this convivial space, which in turn opens onto a terrace of about 50 sqm - half of it sheltered with a covered, insulated roof and awning blinds, allowing it to be enjoyed in all weathers, rain or sunshine. Full-width folding glass doors connect the reception room to the covered terrace, blending indoors and outdoors into a seamless 110 sqm space. Quite unprecedented! The ground floor includes a master suite over 35 sqm with built-in dressing furniture, bathroom, shower, and WC. From the reception room, a utility room - doubling as a pantry and technical space - provides direct outdoor access, as well as internal access to the garage and a separate toilets for guests. Upstairs, a bespoke staircase leads to a landing distributing a 9 sqm study, easily convertible into a fourth bedroom, plus two further bedrooms of about 14 sqm each. One of these has its own en-suite shower room with WC, while a third bathroom with WC measuring 6.5 sqm completes the floor. Both upstairs bathrooms feature electric underfloor heating for optimum comfort. All three upstairs rooms - bedrooms and study - open via large glass doors onto a 30 sqm terrace overlooking the garden, pool, and valley, with breathtaking views of the surroundings. The heated saltwater pool, 1.25 m deep, nestles below the house within a thoughtfully landscaped outdoor area of terraces and relaxation zones. An outdoor shower is also provided. The dovecote features on the ground floor a covered terrace, pool room, summer kitchen/living and a WC. Upstairs, a terrace supported by oak pillars leads to a self-contained fifth bedroom of about 19 sqm, with vaulted ceiling and exposed oak beams, shower room, and WC - perfect for guests or visitors. For parking, the garage over 20 sqm (6 m deep) accommodates one vehicle, while the front courtyard is laid out for several more. The house offers complete thermal comfort via underfloor heating and cooling throughout the ground-floor rooms.
