Property description

The property is on the edge of a hamlet within easy reach of Limoges airport, Chateauponsac and the lake at St Pardoux.
The front of the house and other outbuildings combine to create a large courtyard setting at the front and a similar setting is achieved at the back with lawns and a well. The interior of the house has exposed beams, exposed stone work and surprises seem to greet you around every corner.
On the ground floor there is a very large living room / dining room(57m²) with tiled floor, beams, stonework, imposing granite fire place and the old bread oven. Between this and the kitchen is a cellar / wine store (4m²), cloakroom (4.40m²), and a utility room (12.50m²) - which could be a bedroom or laundry room. All these rooms have tiled floors and radiators.
The kitchen (25m²) has fitted units and again continues with beams and stonework, plenty of space here for a long family table. There is a door out to the rear garden. For those great family events, for dining or for other social occasions there is a further reception room / grand salon of 46m² over looked by a mezzanine floor and with French doors to the terrace at the front of the house. Ceiling height here stretches up two floors.
On the first floor there are four double bedrooms ( 13, 18, 20 and 21m²) - a simple statement which does not begin to describe the charm and character of each room. In one of the rooms, what appears to be a wardrobe, in fact leads through to an en-suite bathroom of 13m²! Two other bathrooms are also on this floor ( 5.50m² and 7m² ) . A corridor leads to the mezzanine (10.40m²) over looking the main reception room.
Above all of this is a further spacious attic room (55m²), which could be used as a bedroom, office or even a studio.
Attached to the house is a large barn with a footprint of 100m². In here is the boiler room for the central heating, a workshop, garage and copious space for expansion should that be required. The attic (grenier) space above all of this could provide an additional 64m² of accommodation.
Other outbuildings with the property include a small house (20m²), small building / stable (18m²) and a further wood store / outbuilding. There are three wells in the grounds, the one notably at the back of the house looking particularly special.
The habitable area of the house as it stands is 270m². Gardens and land with the house totals 15 000m² of meadowland and woods in a terrific setting.
The house has oil fired central heating plus an open fire. Sanitation / drainage is by septic tank.
Photographs and descriptions help to give a picture of this house, but nothing is quite like a visit. This is a place to view and I would recommend an early visit.
