Stone townhouse in the south Loire Valley, lovely little lock-up-and-go or Airbnb with a small private garden.
This charming little stone house is located in the heart of the historic town of Loudun and town records date it to be at least 300 years old. It would be ideal as a holiday home or investment property with all local amenities such as shops, boulangeries, and restaurants within walking distance.
The house is full of character, thanks to its old features, such as two stone fireplaces, exposed beams and stone walls, and old stone staircases, and there's conversion potential in the attic. It's located on a quiet one-way street and there are free parking areas less than a minute's walk from the house.
PROPERTY DETAILS:
- The front door leads straight into the living area, which is just over 20 m2 and comprises a lounge/dining room with a fitted kitchen area, a beautiful stone fireplace and storage space under the stairs.
- A couple of steps lead to a 4.5m² room that could be used as an office or storage room with a door leading to the terrace and fully fenced garden of approximately 35m².
- To the left of this space is a 4m² shower room with toilet
-A stone staircase, covered by wood, leads to the 15m² mezzanine bedroom with a magnificent stone fireplace.
-A beautiful 26.5m² attic completes this property, currently accessed via a ladder and then a beautiful stone staircase. With ample headheight and lovely old terracotta tomette tiles on the floor, this space could be converted into a beautiful bedroom with an ensuite shower room.
TECHNICAL POINTS:

-Mains drainage
-Double glazing throughout except the front door.

-The F energy rating can easily be improved by installing a new front door and insulating the attic (which would bring it up to D). Adding a pellet stove would bring it up to C.
