Château de Mémanat is a 19th century Country Manor house set in a mature park, with woodland, fields, and orchards, extending to a total of 20.25 Ha. The land is contained within a large loop of the River Taurion (a category 1 angling river). There is also a large 5 bedroomed farmhouse, a care-takers cottage, 3 barns, a dovecote and other outbuildings.
Situated between the towns of Aubusson and Bourganeuf, there is easy access to Limoges.
The property is approached through large gates down a 200m avenue of mature trees.
Currently the main house is run as a 4 star B&B and the farmhouse and cottage are let out as self catering accommodation (Gites) providing a good income. There are barns suitable for stabling and the fields currently support 8 horses.
The three houses have been beautifully and sympathetically restored by their present owners, retaining many original features whilst offering all the luxuries of modern living. All of the properties have been rewired to current electrical regulations and all domestic and heating plumbing has been recently installed.
The houses are surrounded by mature parkland, shrubberies and gardens of 3.5Ha including a productive fruit & vegetable garden and a children’s play area with an enclosed, heated swimming pool (9.6m x 6m). Each house has a stone paved terrace.
The remainder of the land is split between 8.85ha of fields/orchard and 7.9ha of mature oak and beech woodland. The property is bounded by about a km of the River Taurion (a category 1 trout river).
The Main house ground floor comprises a sitting room with open fire (31m2), dining hall with beautiful stone fireplace (36m2), living room (20m2), kitchen (18m2), garden room (20m2), utility room (17m2) & WC (2m2),
On the first floor there are 2 large bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, the library and a store room. The first floor landing is joined to the park by a bridge.
The second floor has 4 further bedrooms, a bathroom and a self contained apartment with bed/sitting room, kitchen/diner and shower room. Below the house is a large vaulted stone cellar. Broadband internet (ADSL) is available
The farmhouse has a sitting room with granite fireplace, wood burning stove and large bread oven, a dining room and kitchen, utility room, a second sitting room, 5 bedrooms 3 bathrooms, and 4 WCs. The farmhouse also has a vaulted stone cellar.
A central boiler-house contains the dual fuel wood/oil central heating system for both the main house and the farmhouse. We process and burn our own wood so heating costs are very low with the oil system being used as back-up and for hot water in the summer.
The Cottage has 1 reception room, 1 Kitchen/ dining room, 1 large bedroom and 1 bathroom. Heating is from a large wood burning stove.
This is a beautiful country residence in a beautiful location and to fully appreciate how special this property is, viewing is highly recommended.
