Owners description
Welcome to the Clos de Mondetour in the heart of one of the most beautiful villages of the Vallée de l'Eure. You will love the tranquil, almost idyllic character of this beautiful property situated beside the river.
Aude and Gregoire are passionate about old buildings and this is the reflect in the restoration of their XVI century home. They have renovated four bright, well exposed rooms to the highest comfort. Using authentic paint finishes, antiques, family linen and treasures along with refined decorative touches, they have created an overall impression of comfort and charm.
On the ground floor, in the living room you will be able to enjoy a copious breakfast, at the table laid with family silver.
The house was probably built in the second half of the 16th century. In 1585 this 'stronghold' of Fontaine sous Jouy belonged to the Bassompierre family, and it was Monsieur Francois de Bassompierre (1579-1646) Maréchal de France, who lived in the house. Over the centuries, the architecture of the house, in particular it's façade, underwent several notable changes.
| When taxes were raised on windows, all the openings were bricked up. Time took its toll on the building as a whole and it was not properly maintained. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Mallard-Pieton family converted the property into a farm and so it remained until we bought it in 1991. At first we renovated what was the farming wing on the left. In 2005 we decided to renovate the main building and endeavoured to recreate the original architectural harmony and restore the condemned windows.After two years of work we welcome guests to our property who enjoy old stones as much as we do, and who are looking for somewhere pleasant, calm and comfortable to stay. They will appreciate the friendly feel of a house filled with family memories and treasured antiques. |
