Description

Located in Favières, amidst a preserved rural landscape, this property, comprising two traditional longhouses—offers a rare blend of period charm, spacious interiors, and genuine potential for expansion. Set in a peaceful environment, the combination of stonework, exposed beams, terracotta floor tiles, and an enclosed garden creates an authentic, welcoming atmosphere.

These two characterful longhouses in Favières are ideal for a family home, a holiday retreat, or a tourism-based venture. Situated on an enclosed, tree-filled plot of approximately 1,403 m², the property offers around 178 m² of living space distributed across two independent dwellings.

This layout provides great flexibility, whether for accommodating a large family, hosting guests, creating a self-contained unit, or launching a gîte business in this sought-after area (28170). The first longhouse, positioned towards the road, has a footprint of approximately 83 m².

Upon entering, the home’s character is immediately apparent, featuring antique terracotta tiles, exposed beams, and a beautiful open fireplace that lends an authentic, convivial feel to the living room (over 28 m²).

This first dwelling also includes a kitchen, a comfortable bedroom, a shower room, a separate toilet, and a pantry/laundry room. A wellness area—complete with a Jacuzzi, shower, and steam room, adds a delightful touch to daily life, embodying the spirit of a country home designed for relaxation.

Upstairs, a convertible attic space of approximately 60 m² offers the opportunity to create additional rooms tailored to specific needs, such as extra bedrooms, a workshop, a home office, or a leisure room.

With the roof structure and roofing in good condition, this space represents a significant asset for adapting and expanding the property over time.

The energy performance rating (DPE) for this first longhouse is G (575 kWh/m²/year), with a C rating for greenhouse gas emissions (23 kg CO2/m²/year). 

The second longhouse, located on the garden side, offers approximately 95 m² of living space and an equally warm atmosphere. It comprises a living room with a wood-burning insert, a large multi-purpose room (suitable as a bedroom, office, or additional lounge), and a kitchen with direct access to the garden. A bathroom and a separate toilet complete this level.

Upstairs, there are two bedrooms and a shower room with a toilet, providing comfortable accommodation for family, guests, or visitors.

Some windows have already been fitted with modern double glazing, while recent Velux skylights enhance the comfort and natural light of the living areas. The property is structurally sound, featuring a slate roof and a framework and facades that are in good condition.

The electrical system has been completely rewired and brought up to safety standards.

Some energy-efficiency upgrades and modernization work would allow the full potential of this character property to be realized.

The energy performance rating (DPE) for this second longhouse is F (371 kWh/m²/year), with a C rating for greenhouse gas emissions (13 kg CO2/m²/year).
