Description

Welcome to the serene ambience of Midi-Pyrenees, in the welcoming community of Marcillac-Vallon, where this delightful 4-bedroom character house resides. Dating back to the 15th century, the property offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern necessities, ideal for those looking to immerse themselves in the French rural lifestyle while enjoying the comforts of a well-equipped home.

Set in a peaceful hamlet, just a 5-minute drive from the bustling market town of Marcillac and 15 minutes from the city of Rodez, this limestone house spans approximately 145 sqm and comes with a detached garden of 390 sqm, flourishing with fruit trees. The entrance, a stunning vaulted archway over 7 sqm, sets a majestic tone, leading into a cosy living room complete with an old inglenook fireplace and a modern pellet stove, stretching about 32 sqm. It beautifully encapsulates the essence of rustic living.

The layout includes a dining room of around 20 sqm on a half level, beside a kitchen of 17 sqm that opens onto a charming 7 sqm terrace—perfect for dining al fresco. On the first floor, you will find three bedrooms of varying sizes (10, 9.5, and 16 sqm), a bathroom measuring around 10 sqm, and a separate toilet. The top floor hosts an additional bedroom of 10 sqm and a convertible attic space of about 20 sqm, offering potential for further personalization.

While the property is mostly in good condition—with a slate roof completely redone 2 years ago and 20 cm thick glass wool insulation in the attic—some renovation is needed. These include the installation of double glazing in the bedrooms and updating the septic tank to meet current standards, presenting a wonderful opportunity for those looking to tailor a home to their tastes.

Living in Marcillac-Vallon allows residents to enjoy a blend of historical richness and daily conveniences. The area is known for its vibrant vineyards and the annual Marcillac wine festival, which draws visitors from across the globe. Local amenities ensuring a comfortable stay include shops, cafes, schools, parks, and medical facilities, all within a short distance. Nearby Rodez offers further amenities such as larger retailers and a regional airport.

The local climate is predominantly temperate with distinct seasons, featuring warm summers and mild winters, suitable for outdoor enthusiasts who cherish seasonal changes. The house is ideally situated for those interested in hiking, cycling, and exploring the natural beauty of Aveyron.

For overseas buyers or expats, this house not only promises a peaceful retreat but also a strategic gateway to explore southern France. It’s particularly appealing for those looking to experience an authentic French lifestyle within a community that embraces both history and modern living.
