Loire Valley : An amazing eco-house with attached independent annexe and superb views 30 minutes from Tours!
This house would be ideal for someone who wants to offer gite holiday stays or for a multi generational family allowing two independent homes linked to each other by a common entrance.
The village offers some local shops and services, nursery and junior school in walking distance, but it's just 8 minutes' drive to Azay le Rideau where you will find shops, restaurants and two large supermarkets.
Its ecological criteria are impressive : built with a wooden structure stuffed with hay bales and rendered, it has a full run of solar panel on the south facing roof linked to a panel of batteries and has the potential to be entirely self sufficient in electricity; it has a reed bed filtration system for grey water, and uses composting toilets. The heating is provided by a pellet burner in one of the houses, a high performance wood burner in the other. Constructed in 2011 it has wood frame double glazing, a slate roof, modern electrics including fibre, and mains water supply.
Entrance Hall (3,8m x 3,5m = 13,8m2) wooden structure linking the two houses, glass doors to side garden area
Main house ground floor : Sitting/dining/kitchen (8m x 7m = 57m2) two sets of glass double doors to the garden, two windows, tiled floor, fitted kitchen in one corner, imposing wood burning stove.
