Hidden away in a peaceful and discreet lane, this charming house is a true haven of tranquility. From the street, it’s impossible to imagine the charm and character of this authentic Rétais home, arranged around a delightful heated pool. With 190 m² of living space, the villa comfortably accommodates several families or groups of friends. It is composed of a main house and a separate guest annex, ensuring privacy and comfort for all. The main living area spans 70 m², with a large dining table for ten and direct access to the pool. The fully equipped kitchen invites shared meals, and a shaded terrace with seating for 6 to 10 guests allows for relaxed outdoor dining. A guest WC completes the space. Upstairs in the main house, a master suite offers a king-size bed, an en-suite bathroom, and a separate WC (accessed via a steep staircase). On the ground floor, a children’s dorm with two bunk beds and a double bedroom with private shower room offer additional sleeping space, with an optional independent entrance for added autonomy. The annex includes two bedrooms: one with a 180 cm bed (or two singles), and the other with a 140 cm bed. These share a bathroom and a separate WC. Outside, a 450 m² terrace wraps around the house. The heated 6x3 m pool is secured with a new electric cover, and there’s an outdoor shower and a stone barbecue in a dedicated corner—ideal for summer evenings. The roof was fully redone in 2024, and new window fittings are currently under review. This house offers the perfect blend of character and comfort, in a peaceful setting close to everything. A rare gem on Île de Ré, not to be missed.
