l'Ancienne Ecole

Charming, authentic old village school steeped in history - building from the end of the 19th century, typical of the 3rd Republic - renovated into a gîte and small village hall by the commune of Morey, nestled in a peaceful setting on the edge of fields and meadows (where peaceful Charolais cows graze in season), a stone's throw from the heart of the village. Nestled on a hillside at an altitude of 437m, in the heart of unspoiled countryside on the first foothills of vast wooded massifs with beautiful wild forests rich in various panoramic viewpoints offering breathtaking views (to be discovered during relaxing walks or mountain bike rides), in the hollow of a bucolic bocage plateau overlooking the gentle valley of the Dheune (crossed by the famous Canal du Centre), this picturesque mini rural village (formerly a wine-growing village) has a notable heritage (elegant 13th century Romanesque church, calvaries & wash houses, Neolithic & Roman remains) and benefits from an enchanting hilly landscaped setting, totally calming & relaxing. Comfortable gîte. Spacious & bright. Country character with contemporary accents, mixed with the 100% exotic soul of the place. Large enclosed plot opening onto the surrounding pastures, featuring a vast tree-lined courtyard (great shaded parking in summer), a courtyard terrace (exposed or sheltered as needed under the historic vast courtyard with its imposing "cathedral" volume), a pétanque court, and a natural field nestled behind the house. Beautiful unobstructed views of the surrounding countryside.
Composition: Detached house with a small function room on the ground floor (capacity 65 people / closed when renting the gîte). Fiber optic Wi-Fi. Electric heating.
