This imposing detached six bedroomed traditional farmhouse house of immense charm and character with gardens and grounds of approximately 2.59 acres offers an idyllic oasis of peace and tranquillity and has been a much-loved and elegant family home for the present vendors for the last 19 years. Its name comes from the French for 'beautiful place' and you can see why with its Idyllic location on a quiet country no through lane and surrounded by spectacular countryside and stunning walks.
Nestled on the edge of the charming village of Staunton, a sought after village that stands on the western boundary of the Forest of Dean high above the Wye Valley on the English/Welsh borders between Monmouth and Coleford. Within the village is a thriving local pub with more comprehensive facilities in Coleford and Monmouth to include a variety of independent shops, banks, building societies, Deli, butchers coffee shops, pharmacies, supermarkets (including M&S) leisure facilities, as well as a range of primary and secondary schools. There are excellent road networks linking the midlands and south wales via Monmouth together with the Midlands and South Wales, with the M48/M4 at Chepstow for Bristol and London.
The vendors tell us they were first drawn to the property by the perfect location offering a beautiful family home in a peaceful and rural setting with great potential for working from home and the added bonus of a business opportunity with a Bed & Breakfast.
The property offers spacious and versatile accommodation and is approached via wooden gates off a private drive which boasts ample off road parking for numerous vehicles. The front landscaped gardens lead to the front door and veranda area which offers a great entertaining space. The ground floor has a large living room with wood burning stove, separate sitting room with open fire, a good size kitchen/study, a boot room & utility, along with a shower room and separate W.C. The heart of the home is understandably the large conservatory/garden room which enjoys unspoilt views across local countryside and fields.
On the first floor, you will find three double bedrooms. One of which has an en-suite, along with the family bathroom and a separate W.C. Finally, on the second floor, you will find the remaining three bedrooms including another of the en-suite bedrooms.
Outside - The property sits on a total plot of approximately 2.59 acres and benefits parking for numerous vehicles. The front landscape gardens enjoys level lawns with well stocked borders and beds with an abundance of flowers, mature trees and shrubs and a veranda area which offers a great entertaining space perfect for al fresco dining or just a peaceful spot to sit and relax enjoying the myriad of local bird and wildlife that can be enjoyed come rain or shine. There are large rear gardens, separate field which is currently home to horses and alpacas and five block stables currently home to chickens, along with two additional outbuildings and a food store.

In order to offer flexible appointment times, we have a team of dedicated Viewings Specialists who will show you around. Whilst they know as much as possible about each property, in-depth questions may be better directed towards the Sales Team in the office.
