Stone House with Swimming Pool and Panoramic View

Property Description

Perched on the hills above Saint-Péray, this Ardèche stone property enjoys a commanding position and panoramic views. It offers approximately 185 sq m of renovated living space, including four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The nearly 2,000 sq m landscaped grounds, laid out in terraces, feature a swimming pool and generous, secluded relaxation areas. The house is organized around an open-plan kitchen and living room, which extends into a pantry. The living room, equipped with a closed fireplace, opens onto a furnished and heated veranda. The dining room also benefits from direct access to this veranda, creating a seamless flow between the different living spaces. Upstairs, on the west side, the sleeping area comprises three bedrooms, one with its own en-suite bathroom. A large separate bathroom, a second toilet, and a hallway with direct access to the outside complete this level. On the east side, a games room of approximately 36 sqm offers additional space that could be converted into a master suite. The property benefits from individual heating provided by an air-to-water heat pump installed in 2021, supplemented by the fireplace in the living room. Fiber optic internet and an alarm system are also installed. Several renovations have been carried out in recent years: windows and doors, electric roller shutters, skylights, an outdoor terrace, and a pergola. The landscaped grounds have been designed to take full advantage of the surroundings and the views. The outdoor area includes a 9 x 4.90 meter secure swimming pool, completely private, with a reinforced PVC liner installed in 2024. A covered terrace and a pool house equipped as a summer kitchen complement this swimming area. The large terrace, topped by a pergola, conceals a 15,000-liter underground rainwater harvesting tank, used for irrigation. The property has two separate entrances leading to two large garages of 34 and 35 sq m. A spacious mezzanine above one of the garages, a cellar, a woodshed, and a 15 sq m outbuilding further enhance storage and usability. The property has its own septic system. With its traditional Ardèche stone architecture, its elevated position, and its privileged connection to the surrounding landscape, this characterful house offers a unique living space in the hills above Saint-Péray. Its generous proportions, heated veranda, secluded pool area, and numerous outbuildings make it an exceptional property, designed for everyday living with easy access to the shops, schools, and activities offered in the very attractive town of Saint-Péray.
