House in Auvers-sur-Oise, Van Gogh's village near Paris in the natural Vexin park.
Dear intervac members,
Our house is located in a peaceful area on the heights of Auvers-sur-Oise just few minutes from the Impressionist Castle and other museums( Maison du doctor Gachet, Musée de l'absinthe, Auberge Ravoux, Atelier Daubigny et Musée Daubigny etc…). Auvers-sur-Oise has a special "Guinguette" atmosphere close the Oise river.
It's central position between city and typical countryside. You can reach Paris and its exciting places to visit or go for long walks across the Vexin countryside. During summer there are many activities offered by the National Trust.
If you want to visit exciting Paris and relax at the end of the day, our place is a good compromise between both of them.
From Auvers-sur-Oise you can visit places like Paris, Giverny, La Roche Guyon and Chantilly castles, and many other places.
If you have children they might enjoy going to Dysneyland or Asterix Park which are approximately 1h drive from our place.
On the first floor, there is a living room and dining room with an open space kitchen that views on the garden behind the house. There are toilets as well.
On the second floor, there are 3 bedrooms ( one with a queen size bed, one with a single bed and the office with a convertible sofa) and a bathroom.
There is a basement where you can do your laundry.
The garden is 400 square meters with an apple tree and lilacs. Some summers, we plant tomato and zucchini's plants. There is a slide.The adjacent terrace allows to enjoy barbecues if you wish.
You can park your vehicle in front of the house.
