Nice countryside studio near city
Are you looking for a cosy flat in the countryside very near to a city?
Or a fully equipped flat with parking place and green terrace?
Then have a look at our recent new flat!
Nice recent flat with a bright cosy living room, located at 5 walking minutes of a forest. From your window, you might see horses, sheep and sometimes cows.
It has kitchen facilities (with a private washing machine) and a bathroom (with bathtub). There is an outside terrace dedicated to the flat as well as a place to park.
My wife, our two sons and I live upstairs in the house and have our own terrace which is separated from the other.
You have at your disposal, in this 34 square meters flat:
- a king size bed (180 cm) for 2 people, with adjustable heads
- a sofa bed for 1 adult or 2 kids
- a modern kitchen with dish washing machine, oven & microwave oven, coffee machine, fridge with small freezer. It is as well equipped with glasses, plates, cutlery, pans, pots and utensils.
- a dining table with 4 chairs
- a bathroom with toilet, modern shower and hair dryer
- a tumble dryer
- a TV with more than 250 channels on the Apple TV.
It is also possible to use the Apple TV to play video games. There is also a Chromecast key, so you stream content to the TV directly from your phone or your computer.
- wireless Internet with ultra high speed connection (10 Gbits/s symmetrical, fiber optic)
And outside:
- a free outdoor parking space for a car
- a grass terrace
The electricity that powers up the house is generated locally with photovoltaic panels on the roof.
Possibility to have a travel cot and toys for kids.
This studio is in a well located village near the city of Fribourg.

If you have or rent a car, the flat is at less than 5 minutes from 2 highway entrances ("Fribourg-Nord" and "Fribourg-Centre").
The Swiss highlights are easily accessible thanks to a well centred location.
