A trained winemaker and oenologist, David welcomes you to a charming, authentic 19th-century winemaker's house, carefully restored and perched on a hillside, offering panoramic views and a panoramic vista, in the heart of the sublime vineyards of the renowned Saint-Véran appellation. Enjoy total peace and tranquility nestled within a small wine-growing hamlet perched high above a picturesque village in the gentle rolling countryside of the Mâconnais region, at the foot of the iconic Roches de Solutré and Vergisson. The undulating landscape of bucolic hillsides covered in vines, encircled by beautiful wild forests (a magnificent site designated a "Grand Site de France"), lies within a soothing, preserved haven (protected as a Natura 2000 site and a ZNIEFF area for its rich fauna and flora). Exceptional location and breathtakingly beautiful surroundings, truly magical and enchanting. Spacious and very comfortable cottage. Warm, contemporary country charm enhanced by the preserved soul of a former rural dwelling (original stone framework, beams, and lintels). Cozy atmosphere. Full of charm. Beautiful enclosed property of 550m² (flanked by elegant historic stone walls), boasting a large sunny terrace, a lovely landscaped garden bordering the vineyards, and a large tree-lined courtyard (offering a pleasant gravel terrace area naturally shaded in summer). Superb unobstructed views over the vineyards and an exceptional panorama extending to Mont Blanc in the distance on a clear day! Several additional services are available (for a fee): Burgundy picnic baskets, an immersive wine tasting experience with the owner, and more. Composition: A house comprising two adjoining gîtes (and a small, rarely occupied studio) next to the owners' house (each gîte is completely independent). Wi-Fi. Oil-fired central heating. The gîte is a duplex on two levels (with a mezzanine). Ground floor: living room/kitchen, shower room, separate WC. Upper mezzanine: TV lounge. First floor: two bedrooms (each with two single beds, 90x200cm), one with an en-suite bathroom (bath/WC). Enclosed grounds (550m² / courtyard and garden) + terrace + gravel terrace overlooking the courtyard + garage (one space) + bicycle storage + electric vehicle charging point (free charging) + private parking. Supermarket 2.5 km. Amenities 7 km. Exceptional location & breathtaking view! Exceptional landscaped setting nestled at the foot of the magnificent jewel of the Roches de Solutré & Vergisson (labeled "Grand Site de France") in the heart of the sublime vineyards of the renowned "Saint-Véran" cru! Authentic characterful winemaker's house dating from the 19th century, very carefully renovated into a charming holiday retreat - adorned with a pleasant enclosed garden of 550m² - perched like a "panoramic lookout" on the hillside, within a picturesque mini wine-growing hamlet, 2.5 km from a supermarket, 7 km from the charming market town of Charnay-les-Mâcon and 10 km from Mâcon, the southernmost city of Burgundy, nestled on the banks of the Saône (run alongside the Voie Bleue which runs alongside the EuroVélo17 & "ViaRhôna" cycle routes). Absolute tranquility in the heart of the Grand Site of Solutré-Pouilly-Vergisson, undulating "cirque" of bucolic vineyards near beautiful wild forests, nestled in the gentle rolling countryside of the Mâconnaise, a soothing preserved setting largely protected in "Natura 2000 Zones" & ZNIEFF (for its rich ecosystems), next to the renowned "Val Lamartinien" (named after the famous French romantic poet & politician, illustrious "native" of the area), facing the wooded foothills of the South Burgundy massif (a vast wild space, to be explored on foot or by mountain bike). An exceptionally privileged location at the southernmost tip of Burgundy, overlooking the Saône Valley at the crossroads of the vineyards of southern Mâconnais and northern Beaujolais (the world's first vineyard recognized as a UNESCO Global Geopark / vast network of marked mountain bike trails crisscrossing the massif in a star pattern, the closest accessible 6 km away), ideally situated on marked hiking trails including a "green walk" (a very rich network of similar hiking trails to discover in the area), the Burgundy Wine Route (Côtes Mâconnaises, extending various Beaujolais wine routes), the Lamartine Route and the Romanesque Churches circuit, 2.5 km from the "Great Loop of Southern Burgundy" Green Way (and its remarkable "Bois Clair Tunnel" located 11 km away, the longest former railway tunnel in France open to a Green Way at 1.6 km), 1.5 km from the Passing through the "Cycloroute71" (Tour of Saône-et-Loire by bike), 2.5 km of the GR76 long-distance hiking trail, 15 km of the renowned GTM mountain bike trail, certified "FFC Mountain Bike" (Grand Tour of the Southern Burgundy Massif connected to a vast network of identical mountain bike trails radiating outwards across the massif), and 24 km of the famous Mont-Saint-Romain downhill mountain bike track. 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. Ideal for exploring the region (RCEA connection to A6/A406/A430 at 4 km): 7 km from Mâcon Loché TGV station, 18 km from the illustrious abbey town of Cluny, 19 km from Touroparc Zoo (zoological & amusement park), 20 km from "Hameau Dubœuf" (1st theme park on vines & wine in Europe), 30 km from Vonnas (gastronomic village of Georges Blanc), 31 km from the medieval village of Brancion, 41 km from Tournus, 41 km from Beaujeu (historic capital of Beaujolais), 41 km from the charming medieval town of Saint-Gengoux-le-National (labeled "Cités de Caractère de Bourgogne-Franche-Comté"), 44 km from Villefranche-sur-Saône, 46 km from Bourg-en-Bresse & 49 km from Charolles. The perfect retreat for a relaxing "green escape" immersed in a literal "postcard" setting! The perfect "spot" for all wine lovers!
