It has taken many years of hard work to turn this farmhouse into the comfortable home it is now, which is blessed with the most breathtakingly beautiful views of the surrounding countryside; they took a few thousand years longer to mature!
It nestles at the beginning of a small hamlet, on the outskirts of the village of Abzac and is as pleasing to the eye as the surrounding countryside. Abzac is only 5 minutes' drive from Availles Limouzine and around 10 minutes away from Confolens.
Availles-Limouzine is a vibrant village with everything you need for everyday living as well as being situated on one on the prettiest sections of the Vienne River that I know!
Confolens is a town nestled on the banks of the Vienne, with shops, supermarkets, bar and restaurants as well as a yearly music festival which has been staged there for well over 50 years.
Getting to the area is easy with flights from many UK airports into Limoges (under 1 hour) and trains in Bellac (27kms) having links to services to Poitiers train station where you have TGV connections to Paris, Bordeaux, London & Brussels.
The current owner bought the property in 2001 as a long stay holiday home, the owner is now onto a new adventure with a smaller property in the region.
The house has mains water and electricity; drainage is to a fosse. Heating is a wood burning fire with electric radiators for back up.
For anyone looking for peace and tranquillity in a picturesque part of France and close to places such as Availles Limouzine, Confolens, Limoges, Poitiers and Angouleme; to name but a few, look no further.
