Summary
A very unique and rare opportunity in France
Property description
Situated in the heart of the Haute Vienne countryside is this very rare and unique opportunity to purchase a 12th century church fully renovated with just under 2 hectares of attached land.
The current owners have lovingly restored this property from basically a pile of rubble and stones and restored the church into a stunning 4 bed roomed family house leaving many of the original features in place, as stated this is a real rare opportunity as in France very few churches actually become available to purchase.
The church comprises of on the ground floor a very large open plan lounge-dinning room with fireplace, with its large church windows that have all been replaced with double glazed units this is a very light and airy room, directly above the lounge is a stunning library gallery with all bookcases hand crafted. There is a light and airy bespoke fully hand crafted fitted kitchen. On the first floor are 2 bedrooms with bathrooms and the large master bedroom is absolutely stunning built into the original ceiling of the chapel and all the original features remaining. As already described the gallery library is just stunning overlooking the lounge and living area, this then leads to the stairs for the 2nd floor leading up to another 2 stunning bedrooms and bathrooms, the first bedroom built into the roof of the church with all wood work exposed and the second huge bedroom with its own gallery overlooking the countryside. The main staircase has been built from oak out of the woodland.
This property is so hard to describe as it is so unique and words cannot describe the magic this property holds, it certainly won’t be to everyone’s taste however anyone with a passion for historic character buildings will automatically fall in love with it.
Outside are 2 very large barns and 2 hectares of surrounding land including and orchard, meadow and woodland.
This property is an absolute must to view.
