Lovely, cosy apartment for 4 people in a charming medieval village

A magnificent apartment for four people, converted from a former shop, on the corner of two typically French streets, in the heart of the charming medieval bastide town of Monflanquin, listed among the "Most Beautiful Villages of France." Surrounded by locals and nestled in the rolling countryside of Lot-et-Garonne, it's the perfect base for exploring all the bastide villages of the region!

This comfortable, townhouse-style apartment charmingly combines robust materials like concrete, wood, and metal with clean lines and beautiful vintage decor. Against a gray/white and wood backdrop, the magnificent colors of the hills between the Lot and Dordogne rivers blend harmoniously: the blue of the Lot, the yellow of the hills covered in wheat, corn, and sunflowers, and the green of the property's many orchards. A successful marriage of modernity and authenticity. You'll feel right at home!

The former shop is completely open-plan, creating a spacious loft-like atmosphere! Spread across two living areas (80 m² in total), you will find:

Two bedrooms (each for two people, one with a double bed measuring 1.80 x 2.00 m and the other with two single beds measuring 0.80 x 2.00 m) with sliding doors made of reclaimed wood, which Rolf and Karen brought from their home on the Dutch seawalls to France.

A beautiful open-plan kitchen with a raw concrete worktop, industrial lamps in various colors, and all modern conveniences: dishwasher, fridge-freezer, induction hob, oven, coffee maker, kettle, and microwave. A lovely, spacious cupboard houses a charming mix of vintage plates and cups and new pieces from the famous Swedish brand.

The kitchen opens onto the living room, where you can sit around a large white table, near a sturdy sofa, vintage armchairs, and 1970s lamps (suspended from a repurposed water pipe for an authentic touch!). You can also relax on a comfortable wooden sofa, crafted from stone walls, placed in the former shop window and adorned with large and small cushions.

The second bedroom (which locks), comprising a dressing room with wardrobes and a freshly painted bathroom with a sink, shower, and toilet, is located directly off the hallway. It is accessed via a staircase just beyond the second-floor bedroom. Comfortable bathrobes are provided. The hallway has a separate entrance on the side street, Rue Concorde, and also serves the apartments of the two occupants upstairs.

Finally, the former shop boasts a small terrace with a handcrafted solid wood bench, where you can savor the charm of French village life: a leisurely breakfast or coffee in the morning, a glass of wine in the evening…

All these elements make this village house an ideal place for your holiday!
