Le premier niveau sur 45m2 est propice aux réceptions et à la convivialité tout en préservant l'intimité aux étages : un beau séjour traversant sud-nord, une grande cuisine aménagée et un wc indépendant. L'étage dispose actuellement d'une chambre, d'un grand bureau à plafond cathédrale, d'un dressing pouvant rebasculer en chambre au besoin et d'une grande salle de bains avec toilettes.

Sa situation et ses prestations sont les deux grandes qualités de ce bien au charme unique. A côté du salon se trouve une courette et un cagibi. Au sous-sol une cave d'environ 45m2 pour les amateurs de bons vins/ bricoleurs/ collectionneurs organisés !

Next steps for moving to France
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
