Suzanne Barry, Independent Agent, says: | | Within walking distance of the village shop, this bright and cheerful house, with lots of original features needs a complete overhaul but once complete will make a fantastic private country retreat. About 30 minutes to budget flights airport Poitiers, an hour to Limoges and a 5-10 minutes drive to a town with all shops, doctors, schools etc. | An absolute bargain at this price-around the £40k mark. OK it needs work but boy the finished house will be a stunner!
Just off a quiet hamlet lane, this semi-detached house needs a new roof, electrics, drainage etc but really is a blank canvas, with nothing to get in the way of your imagination.
Entering the house into what was originally the kitchen, (20m²) with flagstone floors, beams and plastered walls; a large fireplace and a butler sink greet you with a cute little door to the staircase. The living room (20m²) has its original wooden floor and a window to the courtyard garden.
Upstairs opens into a large room open to the high roof –no ducking under beams here! There are currently 2 smaller rooms off-to kick-start your imagination I'd say it would become 2 bedrooms (currently 27m² and 9m²) and a bathroom (6m²). If you'd like to keep that cute staircase in a cupboard, a solution for getting the larger furniture upstairs is an opening, currently a door on the upper floor, which can be accessed by a ladder.
Across the courtyard garden are two decent single storey sized barns, (each one 25m²) and a little shed, with the former hamlet bread oven in between. Next to the courtyard is a further piece of garden and parking and a large double height barn in good condition with double wooden doors. (90m²) Within the barn, a dry secure storage area has been built in which the current owner stores books.
The friendly and helpful village shop, about 1km away, which is an absolute star in this country village, stocks everything from wine, cheese to light bulbs, plants and is an absolute delight! The hamlet is also served by a baker’s van.
The hamlet is well placed in the countryside between Chaunay and Lezay.
