Beautiful cottage close to Taize, Cluny & Macon with 12 meter pool

A gorgeous cottage in idyllic countryside close to the historic town of Cluny, the religious village of Taize and the many wine routes of this beautiful region. The cottage is in the grounds of a large country house, but is very private with panoramic views of glorious countryside. There is shared use of the owner's 12 meter swimming pool for summer visitors. The cottage was fully restored to an exceptionally high standard by the previous owner. The front door opens into a kitchen/diner with custom built oak units and granite worktops. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a microwave and a dishwasher. The kitchen dimensions are 10'9 x 14'4 (3.28 x 4.37) excluding the staircase. Off the kitchen is a short passageway with fitted cupboards housing the fridge and washing machine/drier. Opposite them is the door to a luxury bathroom that has both a bath and a separate shower cubicle. At the end of the passageway is the living room with the original bread oven and bi-folding doors that open out fully onto the private terrace with wonderful views. The sofa opens up as a very comfortable double bed. There is a satellite TV (showing both French and British channels) which has an integrated DVD player. There is also free Wi-Fi. The living room dimensions are 12'6 x 14'1 (3.8 x 4.3). Stairs from the kitchen lead up to a large, characterful mezzanine bedroom with oak beams, a 6 ft/180 cm bed and a large fitted wardrobe with plenty of hanging space, shelves and drawers. The bedroom dimensions are 11'6 x 11'9 (3.5 x 3.58) excluding the staircase and alcoves. There is a spacious car port attached to the cottage for your sole use.
