Nestled in the heart of Drome Provencale, in the charming village of La Rochette-du-Buis, this stone house dating from 1865 offers 1,450 square feet of living space in a preserved natural setting. Built at an altitude of 680 meters and facing southeast, it enjoys generous sunshine and spectacular views of the surrounding mountains. The grounds cover more than 6,000 square meters and include a garden, terraces, a vegetable garden, an orchard, and, most notably, a stream that is only accessible from the property. A spring also feeds a natural pool, which is sure to delight lovers of white water, nature, and?why not??trout farming!

Inside, the charm of the old blends elegantly with contemporary renovations. As soon as you enter, the 31 m2 kitchen-dining room, decorated with stone and Indian blue marble, sets the tone: authenticity and refinement. The 40 m2 main living room charms with its brightness and warm atmosphere around the wood-burning stove. Downstairs, a 25 m2 vaulted living room with a cozy atmosphere offers additional space for gathering or entertaining.

The sleeping area consists of two generously sized bedrooms: one measuring 11 m2 with a private terrace, the other measuring 18 m2 opening onto the outside, ideal for welcoming family or friends. In terms of well-being, the house has a bathroom equipped with a jacuzzi and a modern shower room with a walk-in shower. Two toilets complete this functional layout.

There is no shortage of additional space: a 9 m2 cellar for your bottles or homemade preserves, and a separate 21 m2 workshop that is ideal for creative DIY projects or as a secluded office. The house is fully equipped with mixed heating (underfloor heating, electric radiators, wood stove), a 300 L hot water tank, a recent micro-station, a well, and a private spring. Fiber optic internet is currently being installed, an electric gate secures access, and an intercom is installed at the entrance.

Outside, the grounds offer a multitude of living spaces: sun-drenched wooden terraces, a generous orchard, a vegetable garden for growing your own produce, not to mention the natural pond fed by the spring and the stream below, which is perfect for summer swimming or contemplating the clear waters in any season. Here, you will find complete isolation, absolute tranquility, and a landscape worthy of a postcard.

The charm does not stop at the walls: this house carries with it a small piece of history. Its original permit was signed by Louis-Philippe in 1865, an anecdote that will appeal to heritage enthusiasts, as will the important role played by this building during the wars. And for the more visionary, the spring on the property offers the potential to generate approximately 2.5 kW of electricity, a rare opportunity to combine modern comfort with energy independence.

On the practical side, the property remains accessible: shops and services are located nearby in the surrounding villages, while ensuring that this property retains its unique character as a secluded retreat. Schools, markets, and major roads are easily accessible, allowing you to enjoy nature without sacrificing convenience.

This house is much more than a place to live: it is an invitation to slow down, to savor the sound of the stream, to warm up by the stove on winter evenings, and to dive into a natural pool when summer comes. A rare, atypical, and poetic property, as only the Drome and Espaces Atypiques know how to reveal.
