Valérie & Vincent (a film enthusiast) welcome you to an authentic, charming, and meticulously restored farm outbuilding (once connected to the neighboring, perfectly renovated 19th-century traditional Bresse farmhouse they occupy). Nestled in a peaceful, secluded location on the edge of a small reed-lined pond (home to frogs), it sits on a tranquil, enclosed 8000m² property, landscaped with trees, flowers, and greenery. Classified as an LPO (League for the Protection of Birds) refuge, the property is largely maintained using environmentally friendly methods (sustainable mowing and wildflower planting). A peaceful farmyard of geese, hens, and a rooster roam freely, creating a "micro-farm" atmosphere. Enjoy absolute tranquility in the heart of the Bresse countryside, within a small residential hamlet tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac in the verdant lower Doubs valley, a gentle bocage plain dotted with beautiful wild forests (partly protected as a ZNIEFF for its ecological resources). Wildlife and plant life), not far from the foothills of the Jura Mountains. A peaceful little "countryside retreat" and a true haven of peace and quiet, nestled between fields and meadows, a stone's throw from a wood and idyllic ponds, not far from the village and its leisure center boasting a rare supervised "natural" swimming area ("Espace Robelin" with refreshments, snacks, and various recreational activities). A very comfortable cottage. A warm "country chic" style with a "romantic" ambiance, incorporating a rich decor inspired by American cinema. Ultra-cozy and inviting. Full of charm. An unusual atmosphere worthy of a true "dollhouse." Large sheltered terrace opening onto a private, intimate garden with mature trees. Composition: Detached house adjoining the owners' residence and a second cottage (completely independent). Electric heating via portable radiators. Portable air conditioning. Single-story: Kitchen, living room, bedroom (double bed 160x200cm), shower room (shower/WC). Private parking, covered terrace, and garden. Shared enclosed property (8000m²). Shops, including supermarkets, 6 km away. A literal haven of peace and quiet! A prime location for any film buff! Charming former 19th-century farm outbuilding - carefully reimagined as a literal "cocoon of charm" - nestled within a superb 8000m² enclosed property (ecologically designed in the spirit of a "micro farm" with peaceful animals) located in a quiet area 4 km from the small, typical village of La Chapelle-Saint-Sauveur (with a rare and renowned natural body of water converted into an "organic swimming pool") and 6 km from the charming market town of Pierre-de-Bresse (numerous amenities including 2 supermarkets and a renowned eco-museum housed in a sumptuous 17th-century castle). Absolute tranquility in the heart of a small rural hamlet nestled in the heart of the Bresse countryside, in the hollow of a magnificent preserved setting of bocage plain mixing meadows, forests & bucolic ponds, partly classified and protected in "Natura 2000 Zone" (for its very rich ecosystems), in close proximity to the first wooded foothills of the Jura massif as well as the banks of the Doubs (protected natural site, paradise for fishermen and nature lovers). Prime location, on the routes of several marked footpaths (linked to a very extensive network of hiking trails, largely marked as "green walks" crisscrossing the area, to be explored on foot or by mountain bike) & the "Cycloroute 71" (Tour de Saône-et-Loire by bike), 16 km from the Voie Bleue along the banks of the Saône (adjacent to the EuroVélo6 cycle route), 20 km from the river marina of Verdun-sur-le-Doubs (nestled at the confluence of the Saône & Doubs), 22 km from the GRP of Bresse Comtoise, 23 km from the greenway of the "Voie du Tacot" (serving Beaune), 25 km from the Voie Verte de la Bresse Jura, 30 km from the Greenway "Voie Bressane", around thirty km from the first Jura vineyards & around fifty kms of the Chalonnais vineyards crossing those of the famous Côtes de Beaune & Hautes Côtes de Beaune (various wine routes to discover including the "Route des Grands Vins" & the prestigious "Route des Grands Crus"). On the borders of Bresse Bourguignonne - cradle of the famous AOC Bresse poultry - at the crossroads of the Jura & Côte d'Or departments, not far from Chalonnais, Tournugeois-Clunisois (labeled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire") & Pays Beaunois.
