Alison Appleyard, Independent Agent, says: | This 16th Century town house is currently a family home, thriving, fully licenced café, and Bed and Breakfast business. Situated right in the centre of the medieval town of Le Dorat, in the north Haute Vienne.
On the ground floor there is the welcoming licensed café with wood burning stove, totally renovated in the past few years; beautifully restored 'cave' used for a wide variety of successful functions; side room sometimes used for small exhibitions or as a shop; large office/workshop; artist's studio with sink and WC; large store; and a lovely big room that is currently used as another workshop but which could be used for housing an indoor swimming pool.
On the first floor there is a spacious, light lounge (35m2) with woodburning stove, large bathroom, well equipped modern kitchen, including island with gas hob, (25m2) leading out on to a lovely terrace (40m2) - perfect for dining out. Being semi-covered, you don't have to depend on the best of weather either! On this floor there's also one large bedroom.
One the top floor there's a lovely lounge (40m2) with studio kitchen unit including plumbed in sink, currently used for Bed and Breakfast guests, and a very large walk in cupboard. There are 3 bedrooms all approximately 14m2 and with en-suite shower rooms
| The property is for sale as a family home on its own, or there are all sorts of other possibilities including continuing with the café, running a restaurant, opening a shop, gallery etc. It is in an excellent situation being in the heart of the village, close to where the weekly markets are held, and just along from the popular cinema.
The owners are willing to include all the furniture, glasses, crockery etc. in the sale price, apart from personal items and furniture in the main private rooms. The class 4 licence (licence IV), coffee shop licence, music licence, and stock are also included.
Le Dorat is a thriving small town, in the north Haute Vienne region, and is a very popular place for locals and tourists alike. The town is served well for all amenities and schools, and there's also a train station with regular trips to Limoges and Poitiers. In the summer there are evening markets every fortnight, when you can buy your own cheese, bread, wine, and meat - and have it cooked to perfection on the BBQ, followed by dancing.
There's an abundance of things to do in this beautiful, tranquil area. There are many outdoor pursuits such as kayaking, rock climbing, horse riding, and water sports. There are many places to explore including following the Valley of the Frescoes along the river Gartempe. At Montmorillon, City of Writing, there are often book-related courses and other skills of interest such as calligraphy. It's only a 40 minute drive to Limoges with its porcelein museum. It's an hour to historic Poitiers where you can also spend a couple of days at Futuroscope - the giant film theme park.
