An historic hideaway with remarkable view
This characterful house built directly into the 15th-century rampart stands out for its unique charm and spectacular setting. Perched high above the ravine, it offers breathtaking and completely unobstructed views. A truly remarkable property, ideal for those seeking something out of the ordinary.
On the ground floor, you’ll find a spacious living area combining living room with open kitchen, along with a shower room with lavatory.
A staircase leads to the 1st floor which offers two bright, airy bedrooms — one double and one single — as well as a lavatory with washbasin.
On the lower level, a spacious room with an impressive ceiling height of 3.60 m provides endless possibilities: artist’s workshop, studio, or creative space. This room opens onto the large terrace and has a second access to the outside, where a small outbuilding provides perfect storage space or room for bikes. From here, small path leads up to the road or winds down to the river below, offering the perfect spot to cool off on hot summer days. The property interior requires updating but is immediately habitable.
Nestled in the heart of Montolieu, the famous Village du Livre, daily life unfolds at an easy pace. Cafés, restaurants, bookshops, artisan boutiques and local commerces are all within walking distance, with schools, a weekly market and riverside walks creating a lively yet authentic village atmosphere year-round

Opening Hours
Tuesday to Saturday 10am - 1pm, 2pm - 6pmDiscuss an Offer
If this or other properties are of potential serious interest, you may wish to speak in confidence and without obligation or commitment with a sympathetic senior negotiator to discuss what flexibility there may be in the price.
Getting the right deal can be a question of good timing and we have that information.
Whatever you read in the press, it is simply not true that one can apply a percentage discount to the price of any property we like the look of. And it is a real shame to fall in love with a property that is beyond what you wish to spend or can afford.
