An unusual and charming cottage on a property designed in the style of a "micro-farm"! A delightful, centuries-old traditional Bresse farmhouse (built in 1684) carefully restored in an "ecological" spirit - housing a friendly little country restaurant - nestled in peace and quiet on the edge of fields and wooded meadows, on the outskirts of a small rural hamlet, not far from the center of the typical village of La Chapelle-Saint-Sauveur, which boasts a rare and renowned natural body of water designed for "biological swimming", 6 km from the charming market town of Pierre-de-Bresse (supermarket on site) labeled "Cité de Caractère de Bourgogne Franche Comté" (rich in a renowned ecomuseum nestled in a sumptuous 17th-century castle). Total peace and tranquility in the heart of the gentle, preserved Bresse countryside (largely protected as a ZNIEFF & Natura 2000 zone for its very rich ecosystems), a soothing landscaped setting combining agriculture & nature between vast bocage plains dotted with rivers, bucolic ponds and beautiful wild forests, very close to the first wooded foothills of the Jura massif & its Natural Park (traversed by the GRP of Bresse Comtoise connected to the GR59, accessible 17 km away) as well as the banks of the Doubs (protected natural site, paradise for fishermen and nature lovers). Along the routes of several marked "natural footpaths" (complemented by a very extensive network of approved "green walks" crisscrossing the area, to be explored on foot or by mountain bike) & the "Cycloroute 71" (Tour of Saône-et-Loire by bike), 19 km from the Bresse Jurasienne Green Way, 20 km from the Voie Bleue along the banks of the Saône (adjacent to the EuroVelo 6 cycle route), 23 km from the Verdun-Ciel river marina (nestled at the confluence of the Saône & the Doubs), 28 km from the "Voie Bressane" Green Way (connected to the "Grande Boucle de Bourgogne du Sud" Green Way), 28 km from the "Voie du Tacot" Green Way (serving Beaune), and about thirty km from the first vineyards of the Jura And about fifty kilometers of vineyards in the Chalonnais region, intersecting those of the famous Côtes de Beaune and Hautes Côtes de Beaune (various wine routes to discover, including the "Route des Grands Vins," which extends into the prestigious "Route des Grands Crus," passing through the legendary wine villages of Puligny-Montrachet, Pommard, Meursault, etc.).
