House buy in Vendome Centre-Val de Loire

Located in a very quiet, natural/forested corner of Vendome, this luxury period home has been lovingly improved with quality and taste by the current owners since 1990. Today it provides a comfortable family accommodation and guest lodge within a 4 hectare private park with swimming pool and all just 4mins from Vendome TGV station and centre ville. Thus putting Paris at less than a 1 hour commute. THE ACCOMMODATION The main house has plenty of natural light providing great views over the park. The main living room is large and double aspect with an area centered around the feature wood burner stove, another for the piano and several for TV and relaxation as well as a useful mezzanine above. The kitchen is well equipped with an open plan design linking to the breakfast area and extends into a purpose built conservatory to the rear with again plenty of natural light. It has a large island working area and direct access to a rear terrace and utility areas. Linking the kitchen to the main lounge is the formal dining hall with original fireplace and double aspect. Across the entrance hall we discover a second lounge/study with original fireplace and views over the entrance drive. Stairs from the hall lead up to the first floor with the master bedroom complete with new en-suite bathroom and dressing areas. There are two further bedrooms on this floor (one currently used as an office) and a family bathroom with bath and shower. Continuing up the stairs the converted attic area today provides another 3 bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate shower room with wc.
