Garden facade (all windows now new double-glazed)

In a beautiful rural area near the Dordogne border, but only 50 minutes from Limoges airport, this property combines privacy and rural tranquillity with the possibility of a 10 minute car trip to a lively town, or less to a village.

It has just over an acre of land around it....4056mē. The land is fenced, and has a little orchard of fruit trees, pears, apples and cherry.

 

In the garden is a perfectly conserved and functioning bakehouse, with a barbeque corner and a well, which has a roof over it, to the right end of the house.The well has a supply pipe to the house, which also has a normal water supply. 

 

There is a garage at the left end, of  15mē, plus a 10mē workshop area.

There are no rights of way, and no houses close by, yet the cottage is only 4km from a good village with servics, and no more than 15 minutes from St Yrieix la Perche, an attractive Limousin town.

 

The House itself.

 

On the ground floor, the door opens into the kitchen/dining room, with its fireplace, and non fitted kitchen....typically rustic yet modern. From this, to the rear is a study with computer corner, and staircase to the first floor.

 

To the left of the kitchen are two more rooms, a formal dining room, and a cozy living room at the back. There is reversible aircon/heater in this part of the house, though there is also full oil fired central heating fitted, with the boiler in the workshop /garage, and an underground external tank. Off the living room is a downstairs shower room and wc. There is 55mē habitable on th eground floor, and the same upstairs, though it would be fairly simple to integrate the 25mē above the garage, on the first floor.

 

Upstairs.

 

On 55Mē, there is a short central passage with two good sized bedrooms, a bathroom, and separate wc.It would be straightforward to knock through from the central passage, into the 25mē area beyond, which is over the internal garage.

 

In the bedrooms are reversible aircon units.

 

Under the house is a good, dry cellar of 32mē with access door to the front.

 

Well restored, the rustic charm of this stone cottage has been retained. It is easy to imagine this house with three dormer windows for three bedrooms on the facade facing the view over the lake.....

 

The price is 228,400 euros all inclusive, no hidden charges.
