Christine opens the doors of an elegant, characterful 19th-century winemaker's house steeped in history, fully restored with meticulous care and in the highest standards, nestled in the quiet heart of the bucolic vineyards of the renowned "Val Lamartinien" (made from Chardonnay grapes, named after the famous French poet, writer & politician, born in the area), in the gentle rolling Mâconnais countryside (protected as a ZNIEFF & various "Natura 2000 Zones" for its rich fauna and flora), within a peaceful, picturesque little wine-growing hamlet, perfectly preserved and full of charm, perched "on a balcony" on a south-east facing hillside, in the hollow of a magnificent landscaped setting of undulating hills covered with vines and hedged meadows. Total peace and tranquility nestled beneath the wooded ridges of the Rochette mountain, home to a rare 7-hectare "Sensitive Natural Area" ("Lande de Nancelle") adjacent to a vast, wild forest (perfect for relaxing walks or mountain biking), on the heights above the charming, typical market town of La Roche Vineuse, one of the few communes in Saône-et-Loire to have retained its revolutionary name. La Roche Vineuse boasts numerous small shops and a notable heritage (elegant 18th-century Renaissance houses with lava stone roofs, wash houses and stone huts, an 11th-century Romanesque chapel, and the archaeological site of the "Carrières de la Lie," a listed historical monument). Sublime landscapes and panoramic viewpoints await discovery nearby. This spacious and very comfortable gîte offers a warm, contemporary country feel. A soothing blend of tradition and modernity creates a tranquil and serene atmosphere. A cozy and inviting haven of soothing simplicity. Two terraces (one sunny, one shaded), one partially covered in gravel, open onto a pleasant, secluded 1000m² enclosed garden (hidden behind historic stone walls), meticulously landscaped with lawn, greenery, and trees, and featuring a fruit orchard (pear, cherry, plum, mirabelle plum, fig, persimmon, raspberry bushes… / fruit picking possible with owner's permission) and a large gravel courtyard, a veritable "natural pétanque court". Composition: Gîte on the ground floor of the owner's house. Wi-Fi (fiber optic). Heating via wood pellet stove (plus electric backup). Washing machine and dryer in a shared laundry room with the owner (accessible from the outside).

A prime location at the crossroads of the Rhône and Ain departments, at the intersection of the Mâconnais and Beaujolais regions (numerous vineyards to explore), the Clunisois-Tournugeois region (designated a "Land of Art and History") and the Bresse region of the Ain department.
