Burgundy Homestead

Set in the northwest of Burgundy-Franche-Comté, this renovated 19th-century farmhouse offers calm, privacy and quick access to Paris. The property sits between Sens and Joigny, with Villeneuve-sur-Yonne only 5 km away. Surrounded by fields and woods, it feels secluded yet remains just 1 hour 30 minutes from the capital.

A stone track leads to the gate, then a gravel path brings you to the farmhouse. The exterior keeps its Burgundy character with flat tiles, brick cornices, a Jacobin dormer and soft white façades. Large French windows open the house to the terrace and garden, filling the rooms with natural light.

Inside, the ground floor includes a dining room with open kitchen, a cosy living room with fireplace and a flexible bedroom or office. Another bedroom on this level has its own shower room. A toilet and technical room complete the space.

Key Features:

• Renovated 19th-century farmhouse
• Around 220 m² of living space
• 2.76 ha of private land with orchard and meadows
• Four to five bedrooms including a dormitory suite

Upstairs, the landing leads to a cathedral-ceiling bedroom, then a corridor connects another bedroom, a bathroom, separate toilets and a spacious dormitory with its own shower room.

The 2.76 ha garden features grassland, mature trees, climbing plants and a quiet paved terrace. Two vaulted cellars sit on the upper part of the land, hinting at the property’s long history.

This is a peaceful rural retreat with beautifully updated interiors and generous outdoor space, ideal for anyone seeking nature, privacy and a simple trip from Paris.
