Such a cute little country cottage, in a very quiet location and with 8.000m2 attached land, so enough to keep a few animals.

Such a cute little country cottage, in a very quiet location and with 8.000m2 attached land, so enough to keep a few animals. The cottage is traditionally built in stone and oak and is very sound structurally, but needs total internal renovation. It measures approx 60m2 on the ground and has to the ground floor a large living/kitchen and another smaller room. The attic above could be converted, so this would make a comfortable 2-3 bed cottage. Water and electricity are connected. There is currently no sanitation.
DPE : This property does not have a fixed heating system
The Creuse is France's hidden department, and forms part of the Limousin region. You have to leave the beaten track to find the many interesting and attractive towns and hamlets dotted around the area.
Guéret is the capital of the department and has around 15,000 inhabitants, which gives you an idea how sparsely populated this department is. The proximity of the town to both the River Creuse and the Lac du Cortille mean that plenty of watersports are available for both holidaymakers and residents alike.
Bourganeuf has less than 3,500 inhabitants yet has a rich and affluent history, as the Knights Templar had their headquarters here for many years. La Souterraine is another popular small town, steeped in history and has drawn much interest from archaeologists over the years thanks to its 13th century crypt.
The Creuse has some diverse landscapes - from the vast plains of the Berry to the North, the hilly landscape of the Auvergne to the east and woodland to the south. The easiest way to access the Creuse from the UK is to fly into Limoges, or catch the TGV from Paris.
Property prices are still very low when compared to other areas of France, and there are definitely still bargains to be found despite the rise in prices over the last few years.
