Description
Introducing an exceptional opportunity nestled in the heart of Montélimar, France – a stunning chateau-style villa that combines historical grandeur with modern comfort. I’m writing this as a bustling agent who’s part of a global network, juggling multiple listings but still thoroughly enthusiastic about presenting this exquisite property to discerning overseas buyers and expats looking for a unique home in a vibrant locale.
Montélimar, with a population of around 40,000, sits at the northern edge of the Provençal climate. This charming city, famous for its nougat, offers a perfect mix of culture, history, and modern amenities. Situated about 1.5 hours from both Lyon and Marseille, it's a slice of Provence with all the accessibility and comfort one could wish for. The climate here is generally mild, with warm summers and cool winters, making it ideal for enjoying the beautiful surrounding landscapes year-round.
So, what’s it like living in Montélimar? The city is like a vibrant tapestry of old-world charm and new-world convenience. Residents can wander through medieval streets, enjoy vibrant markets, and dine in a variety of superb restaurants. For leisure, the area offers cinema, theatres, and a plethora of cafes and bistros. The local culture is lively, and there’s always something happening, whether it's a traditional festival or a modern art exhibition. Plus, for those needing medical facilities, Montélimar is well-equipped with its two hospitals and various medical services.
Now, let’s talk about this stunning villa located at Avenue de Rochemaure 18. For those thinking of investing in a property abroad or relocating, this villa is more than just a home; it's a lifestyle choice. Spanning over 515 square meters, this late 19th-century residence has been meticulously renovated in 2012-2013, ensuring all modern conveniences are tastefully married with its historical essence.
This spacious sanctuary offers:
- 6 Bedrooms, each a comfortable retreat
- 6 Bathrooms with Italian showers
- Elevator access across all 4 levels
- Two grand terraces providing the perfect setting for outdoor relaxation
- Custom open kitchen with granite worktop
- Dining area and study for business or leisure
- Oak parquet flooring and functioning fireplaces for a cozy atmosphere
- A beautiful park with an automatic sprinkler and robot lawn mower
For the environmentally-conscious, the villa boasts a sustainable energy profile with a combination of city gas and heat pumps that ensure warmth in winter and cooling in summer. The parking area is generous, with capacity for 6 to 8 cars, including two EV charging points.
The property also features a secondary building primed for renovation. With the potential for two apartments, this space presents an exciting project for those interested in expanding the property’s usability or simply looking to increase their investment's value.
While the main villa is in splendid condition, the secondary building, historically the stables and later converted into living spaces, is a classic fixer-upper. The beauty of this building is not in its current state but in its potential. Renovation estimates are between €50,000 to €100,000, which makes this a worthwhile project for expanding family living space or even a guest house for other visiting family or friends.
Living in such a villa offers its own special delights. Imagine waking up to the gentle sounds of nature right in the heart of the city, sipping morning coffee on a sunny terrace, and spending afternoons exploring the vast network of local shops and restaurants. Whether you choose to operate it as a bed and breakfast like the current owners, transform it into a business space, or keep it as a private residence, this villa offers endless possibilities.
Montélimar offers excellent connectivity with its own TGV station, bringing the hustle and bustle of Paris just 2 hours and 40 minutes away. The strategic location of this villa not only gives you the serenity of a quaint French town but also the vibrant energy of larger city centers reachable within a few hours.
In conclusion, this villa in Montélimar isn’t just a property transaction; it’s an invitation to a new lifestyle. Whether you’re seeking a weekend getaway, a full-time residence, or an investment with character and heart, this villa provides an alluring prospect. If you're interested in exploring this opportunity further, please don't hesitate to get in touch. As a busy agent constantly on the move, I'm here to assist and make this potentially transformative journey as smooth and exciting as possible for you.
