Charming 4 bed French farmhouse with workshop annex, 1 bed gite and a pool in beautiful surroundings
Just a 20 minute drive from Limoges Airport, this beautiful property is nestled in a small hamlet in the south west corner of the Haute Vienne, close to the borders of the Dordogne and Charente.
Originally a stone farmhouse with attached barn, the building has been sympathetically renovated to provide a mixture of contemporary and traditional accommodation comprising 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 large living rooms, and a huge converted attic space, suitable for a variety of uses.
The main house benefits from a new roof and insulation throughout with an energy rating of C.
At the opposite end of the private courtyard a new annex has been constructed, housing 2 double bedrooms, office, wet room and workshop.
Whilst at the rear of the farmhouse an outbuilding has been converted into an open plan gite with ground floor lounge/dining room, kitchen and toilet. On the mezzanine is a bedroom and bathroom.
Outside the property has a large driveway, salt water swimming pool and orchard.
This property offers a wonderful family home as well as outstanding flexibility to be occupied or let in its entirety, or configured as separate rental units comprising the main house, annex, and piggery.
GROUND FLOOR
On the ground floor of the main house is a spacious lounge (23m2) with wood-burning stove together with an ensuite double bedroom (16m2) and a large pantry/supplementary kitchen (16m2).
Attached to the main house is an impressive open plan living space with traditional kitchen, large dining area and lounge (23m2) which looks out onto the private terrace and covered seating area through full aspect glazed doors.
FIRST FLOOR
Upstairs there are a further 3 double bedrooms with built-in wardrobe space in each, 2 bathrooms (7m2) a dressing room/single bedroom (11m2) and small mezzanine office (11m2).
ATTIC
On the second floor the old granary has been transformed into a large gymnasium and library (75m2) with dual aspect windows and under eaves storage.
ANNEX
The annex building in the courtyard comprises 2 good size bedrooms (8m2 + 9.5m2) office, modern wet room (4.6m2) and workshop adjoined. This building is flexible in its usage and could provide accommodation or studio spaces for multiple leisure activities.
COTTAGE
Once an old piggery, this additional building has been cleverly transformed into independent accommodation with open plan lounge/dining room/kitchen (46m2) and toilet (2m2). Whilst on the upper mezzanine level is a bedroom (14m2) and bathroom (5m2). The gite is not overlooked by the main house and enjoys views in the garden to the side of the property.
OUTSIDE
The old barn has been converted into a terraced, walled courtyard, with covered patio. A new spectacular fully glazed open-plan space attached to and running the length of the main farmhouse encloses a kitchen/diner and living space.
The driveway has space for several cars and an open sided garage for two vehicles. A saltwater swimming pool surrounded by mature gardens and orchard completes the complex.
