This charming traditional French property offers excellent versatility and would make a wonderful family home while retaining the opportunity to continue operating as a Bed and Breakfast. The current layout provides excellent separation between the private living accommodation and the guest areas, with a separate entrance and a locking door connecting the two, allowing the owners to maintain their privacy.

The main house is accessed through an entrance leading into a lovely orangery (3.5x6.1m), a versatile space ideal for entertaining, dining or simply relaxing. This opens into the bright and spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area (5.1x9.8m), which forms the heart of the home. Large windows and French doors overlooking the garden and patio fill the room with natural light and create a welcoming family space. The existing fireplace could potentially be reinstated with a wood-burning stove, subject to the necessary approvals and installation requirements, providing additional warmth and ambience during the cooler months.

A locking door from the main living area provides access to the Bed and Breakfast accommodation, allowing the two areas to be easily separated. The B&B area includes a spectacular round dining room (13m2) enjoying beautiful views over the garden, a bedroom/living room (4.3x4.6m) with a veranda leading directly to the garden, a conservatory providing a pleasant space to relax, a bathroom with WC (3.8x2m) and a separate WC.

A spiral staircase leads to a particularly impressive guest bedroom (15m2). Bright and spacious, this room features beautiful stained-glass windows and exceptional views across the surrounding Limousin countryside, offering guests a truly memorable experience.

The first floor of the main house comprises two spacious bedrooms (4.69x3.39m) (3.4x4.9m), both with attractive exposed beams. The master bedroom benefits from a small balcony with wonderful views over the garden and surrounding countryside. There is also a bright family bathroom (2.8x1.5m) with WC on this floor.

There is also a quaint room with a traditional bread oven, adding further character to the property, as well as a useful back kitchen/utility room. A cellar provides additional storage space.

Outside, the large, gently sloping garden extends down towards the River Gartempe. There is a lovely patio area, perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining or simply enjoying a morning coffee or evening glass of wine. A further seating area provides a peaceful spot from which to enjoy the tranquil surroundings.

The garden also features an above-ground swimming pool with decking and a hot tub, creating an attractive space for relaxing and enjoying the property during the summer months.

The roof appears to be in good condition. Heating is provided by an oil-fired central heating system together with electric radiators. There is currently no wood-burning stove, although it may be possible to install one. Hot water is electric.

The property is partially double glazed and benefits from two garages.

The property is served by a non-compliant septic tank.

The owners are looking to downsize, providing an excellent opportunity to acquire a characterful and versatile property with potential for both a comfortable family home and a small Bed and Breakfast business, in a beautiful setting close to the River Gartempe.
