Nice countryside studio near city

Or a fully equipped flat with parking place and green terrace?

Then have a look at our recent new flat!

Nice recent flat with a bright cosy living room, located at 5 walking minutes of a forest. From your window, you might see horses, sheep and sometimes cows.

It has kitchen facilities (with a private washing machine) and a bathroom (with bathtub). There is an outside terrace dedicated to the flat as well as a place to park.

My wife, our two sons and I live upstairs in the house and have our own terrace which is separated from the other.

- wireless Internet with ultra high speed connection (10 Gbits/s symmetrical, fiber optic)

And outside:
- a free outdoor parking space for a car

The electricity that powers up the house is generated locally with photovoltaic panels on the roof.

Great location!
Enjoyed a lot our stay in nearby Fribourg. Great location close to the highway and all amenities. Apartment was clean. Family was quiet and the only noises we heard came from the farm close by. The view of the fields in front of the house is beautiful and peaceful. Only downside for us: the pillows that were too flat and could be replaced. We would certainly go back if needed.

Un studio où il fait bon vivre
Merci pour l'accueil les conseils et les services. Studio bien équipé, lit très confortable, chauffage au sol très appréciable. Emplacement très paisible et place de parking direct. Je reviendrai sans hésitation.
