About this property
La Magnanerie - Fantastic views, perfect base for the Ardeche and Chazzezac
La Magnanerie is a welcoming two bedroomed converted silk worm factory ideal for two couples or a family situated half way between Lablachère and Joyeuse..
The property is at first floor level, entering by a tiled staircase with a baby gate onto the large wooden balcony/loggia set out with table and chairs for the superb views where you can fully enjoy the mild Spring and Summer nights and the wonderful colours of Autumn. The living area is open plan and comfortable with two sofas with a separate area which houses the fully-fitted custom built kitchen with 5-burner, two oven cooker and washing up machine and a dining area. Open stairs lead upstairs to two bedrooms, one with a double bed, the other with two single beds. There is space in the double bedroom for a baby bed or cot which we can provide, subject to prior notice and availability. Similarly, a baby's highchair can also be made available for you. The bathroom contains a toilet, sink and large shower. There is a baby gate at the top of the stairs. Please note there is limited headroom in the bedrooms and bathroom on the upper floor. Mind your head on those beams!
Wi-fi connection available. Smart television with French channels, DVD player and music centre. Parking for one vehicle only.
We also let La Petite Grange (Property number 1000462) which is an adjoining gite with two en-suite bedrooms for 4 people, so if you wish to come as a group, both properties can be let at the same time, subject to availability.
The properties share a grassy garden area with sun loungers, benches and parasol.

About the host
Hosted by Jane Marston, Gites Marston Ardeche

My husband worked as an architect in Cumbria for twenty seven years but always wanted to do something more physical in the sunshine. We had already bought La Petite Grange which we imagined we would retire into. In 2009 Alan had the chance to do something different, so he moved to the Ardèche with a view to building and converting properties which we would run as gites. He lived in La Petite Grange whilst he restored it and we then bought the other part of the building, La Magnanerie, from our neighbour so that we could let out La Petite Grange and live in La Magnanerie whilst we built our new home. Alan spent the next year converting La Magnanerie and we lived there very happily for two years before moving into our new house in the summer of 2013. He has since been involved in renovating and building another gite at the other side of the village, La Maison des Charrettes, which has its own exclusive pool and garden.
Why they chose this property
It is light and airy with fantastic views in all directions and just a wonderful place to live.
What makes this property unique
When we first walked into La Magnanerie we could see a beautiful space with shafts of light coming through the (then rotten) shutters. Opening them up was a magical moment as the space was so light and airy, with wonderful views.
An old stove was rusted up against a wall. The owner told us how his family had been evacuated to La Magnanerie during the war and the stove was his mother's only source for cooking and heating water. He kindly gave us the stove which we have since cleaned up and is in the living area.
We have since converted La Magnanerie and lived there for two years. The first floor has a feeling of light, openness and space and the terrace provides a large outside space with lovely views (and particularly lovely sunsets). Upstairs is more cosy with limited headroom.
