About this property

The House on the Square

  • An unusual and totally exceptional address! An authentic traditional farmhouse of character dating from the 18th century, completely and beautifully renovated into a superb charming holiday home - featuring bedrooms with private bathrooms and a rare panoramic garden set apart, complete with a lovely swimming pool shared with the owners - nestled in peace and quiet, in the heart of a picturesque village steeped in history and perfectly preserved ("Cluny Site"), 9 km from the illustrious abbey town of Cluny, one of the most beautiful gems of Burgundy, awarded the prestigious "European Heritage" label (all amenities on site including supermarkets). Peace and tranquility in the heart of the Cluny countryside, nestled in the verdant Grosne Valley (within a vast protected area designated as a "Natura 2000 Zone" for its rich ecosystems), a magnificent, preserved haven of gentle, rolling hedged meadows, vineyard slopes, and vast wild forests, bordering the bucolic vineyards of the renowned "Val Lamartinien" (Côtes Mâconnaises, Chardonnay grapes, crossed by the "Vins de Bourgogne" wine route, extending various Beaujolais wine routes), the wooded foothills of the South Burgundy massif, and the "Verts Vallons" of South Burgundy (the "Little Switzerland of the Mâconnais"), facing the northern Beaujolais mountains (the world's first vineyard, recognized as a "UNESCO Global Geopark," boasting a vast area of marked mountain biking trails) sheltering the sumptuous landscape jewel of the Roches de Solutré & Vergisson, a designated "Grand Site de France." France (located 21 km away), not far from the iconic Butte de Suin. Ideally situated on the routes of the Romanesque churches circuit and marked footpaths in green walks (a very rich network of similar hiking trails to be explored in the area, on foot or by mountain bike), 1.5 km from the GR76, 4 km from the Cycloroute71 (Tour of Saône-et-Loire by bike), 5.5 km from the Green Way of the Southern Burgundy Loop (and its remarkable Bois Clair Tunnel located 6 km away, the longest former railway tunnel in France opened to a Green Way with its 1.6 km), 9 km from the renowned GTM mountain bike route labelled FFC Mountain Bike (Grand Tour of the Southern Burgundy Massif connected to a vast network of identical mountain bike trails crisscrossing the massif) & 24 km from the renowned Mont-Saint-Romain downhill mountain bike track. A prime location, at the crossroads of the Clunisois-Tournugeois (labelled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire"), the Mâconnais, the northern Beaujolais (numerous vineyards to explore) & the Charolais-Brionnais (labelled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire", cradle of the famous AOC world-renowned cattle breed), not far from the departments of Rhône & Ain (Bresse de l'Ain). Ideally located for easy exploration (RCEA access 3 km away): 23 km from Mâcon (Mâcon Loché TGV station 22 km away), 30 km from Charolles, 31 km from the medieval village of Brancion, 36 km from "Hameau Dubœuf" (Europe's first wine and vineyard theme park), 36 km from La Clayette, 38 km from Beaujeu (historic capital of Beaujolais), 42 km from Paray-le-Monial, 42 km from Tournus, and 43 km from Vonnas (Gastronomic village of Georges Blanc). A true haven of charm and serenity, embodying the art of living, for a relaxing getaway with family or friends, with poolside relaxation as a bonus! Anne and Hervé welcome you to a charming, authentic, traditional farmhouse built in the 18th century, meticulously restored to perfection as a delightful holiday retreat, nestled peacefully on the edge of a quiet, tree-lined square, in the heart of the "old village" of a picturesque town. A protected "Cluniac Site," rich in notable heritage (11th-century Romanesque church, 11th-century priory listed as a Historic Monument, Celtic menhir, 13th-century Deanery of Monks…), also known for its Carmelite convent (flanked by a very atypical modernist architecture) perched on a promontory on a nearby hill ("the Carmel of Peace", listed as a Historic Monument / work of a student of Le Corbusier), Mazille enjoys a magnificent, unspoiled rural setting of gentle, rolling hedged meadows, nestled on a south-facing hillside beneath the wooded ridges of a vast national forest. Spacious, high-end holiday cottage. Very elegant, contemporary, luxurious, and refined, blending tradition and modernity in a delightful "mix & match" brimming with charm. A warm and cozy atmosphere, enhanced by meticulous décor (the work of Anne, a former antique dealer) and the unique, utterly captivating architecture. Pleasant enclosed courtyard-terrace (sunny and shaded). Access to a rare panoramic garden, set back from the hillside, featuring a beautiful swimming pool and trampoline, terraced against the remains of the village's historic stone ramparts, overlooking a bucolic plateau of pastures and offering a sublime, unobstructed view of the surrounding countryside. A truly beautiful setting and location. A picture-perfect landscape. Composition : Semi-detached village house adjoining the owners' house (completely independent). Wi-Fi (fibre optic).
