Authentic, elegant, typical 18th century residence steeped in history & carefully restored according to the rules of the art - equipped with a traditional "Mâconnaise gallery" - nestled in the peace of a small rural hamlet nestled on the hillside, in " belvedere" & panoramic "balcony", on an exposed plateau overlooking the green Valouzin valley. Soothing preserved setting of gentle mountains, nestled in the countryside, in the hollow of a valley of bocage meadows (welcome in season the peaceful Charolais cows) under the wooded ridges of a vast wild forest massif. Total tranquility, magnificent panoramas & surrounding landscapes, a stone's throw from a bucolic 10 hectare lake designed for swimming (fishing & pedal boat rental possible) as well as from the center of Saint-Point, a picturesque little perfectly preserved village, renowned for sheltering the tomb & the family castle steeped in great history of Alphonse de Lamartine (Victor Hugo, Charles Nodier or Franz Liszt stayed there), famous French romantic politician, poet & writer. Very comfortable cottage. Warm country character with contemporary accents enhanced by the gentle & exotic soul of the place (conservation of the rich traces of the original building: stone walls & lintels, beams, molded wooden door, terracotta tiles on the gallery side...).
