Alison Appleyard, Independent Agent, says: | Here we have 2 adjoining 250 year old traditional Limousin stone houses - one beautifully renovated, and the other having had all the donkey work done and now just requiring finishing off.
The completely renovated house has a welcoming sitting room (37m2) with gas open fire and oak beams. This leads to the very light south facing dining room (16m2) with french windows to the garden. The kitchen, part of which was once a typical french bread oven, is fully fitted with an abundance of high quality units, electric ceramic hob and double oven. There's also a well ventilated walk-in pantry. The cloakroom has a WC and leads out to the utility room which houses the oil central heating boiler, plumbing for washing machine and dryer, Belfast sink, and hot water tank.
Upstairs the main bedroom (19m2) has exposed beams, walk in dressing room, and well presented en suite bathroom.
The second bedroom (14m2) has a built-in wardrobe and en-suite shower room. There's further storage space in a large cupboard in the hall.
The second house, which you could knock through to to create one large house, is partially renovated already with new roofing, plumbing and electrics. On the ground floor there are currently 4 rooms which can be made into whatever you like. The vendors have the plans for their ideas and have already put the plumbing in place for the bathroom and kitchen. Upstairs is currently one huge space with a beautiful floor and oak beams, and there's also plumbing for a bathroom. This could easily be made into 2 or 3 bedrooms. Outside there are wrought iron gates leading to the garden. | At the back of the house there's a lovely paved courtyard with barbecue area - the perfect place for leisurely lunches and suppers. There's a pretty terrace for relaxing in the sun, and a 7m x 4m raised pool with balustered decking. There's a large, enclosed, mature garden leading to a paddock - which also offers the possibility of constructing up to three more houses if planning permission is granted. At the end of the paddock there are double gates giving access to the road.
The house is only a 2 minute walk away from the centre of this lovely small town. When it's Bastille Day the vendors don't have to leave the house to see the fireworks - they watch it from the decking of their swimming pool!
The small town of Le Dorat is very pretty and has all amenities including schools and train station. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and offers many activities e.g. riding at any of the numerous riding centres, water sports at Lac St Pardoux, golf at Mortemart and St Junien, canoeing and rock climbing at Lathus.
Limoges airport is only a 40 minute drive away, and Poitiers airport 1 hour 15 minutes. The local railway has regular trains to both Limoges and Poitiers, and you can take the TGV from Poitiers to Paris in only 90 minutes!
