Faverolles

On the gates of Yvelines, a former 17th-century presbytery attached to a remarkable medieval church.
Less than an hour from Paris, in a preserved village at the gates of Yvelines, this former 17th century presbytery attached to a remarkable medieval church offers a rare living environment, where history, heritage, and nature meet harmoniously.
Behind its gate and ancient walls, a walled and tree-lined garden of 1,715 sqm reveals itself, a true green haven preserved. The seasons succeed each other to the rhythm of the bells of the nearby church, in a peaceful and timeless atmosphere that gives the place a unique charm. Charged with history, this home has preserved all the authenticity that characterizes beautiful family houses: old floors, tiles, exposed beams, fireplaces, and generous volumes form a warm and elegant ensemble.
As a place of retreat and inspiration, the property has hosted over the years several figures from the literary world, notably François Nourissier and Julien Green, attracted by the serenity of the village and the special spirit of the place.
The main house develops about 200 sqm of living space. It includes an entrance with wardrobe, a separate kitchen, a living room on parquet with fireplace, a dining room on tiles with fireplace, as well as a ground-floor bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs, a spectacular reception room of over 50 sqm, enhanced by a remarkable exposed roof frame, is one of the signatures of the property. This exceptional space offers many possibilities for development according to the projects of its future owners. An additional bedroom, a dressing room, an antechamber, and a bathroom complete this level.
Around the courtyard and garden, several dependencies enhance the appeal and potential of the whole: two independent guest houses, a large convertible attic, an elegant carport-chapel of about 40 m², a cellar, and various annexed spaces.
The village offers the amenities of a simple and pleasant daily life with nearby school and shops. Walking paths, open landscapes, and surrounding forests fully contribute to the quality of life in this sought-after area, a few minutes from Houdan and at the gates of Rambouillet.
The facade has been recently restored. Refreshing works will fully reveal the beauty and potential of this unique property.
A characterful residence full of history, ideal as a main home or country house for lovers of heritage and old stones, less than an hour from Paris.
