Full Description


This characterful south-facing property has a set of 4 adjoining outbuildings, consisting of two houses with two barns and various outbuildings located on the end of a hamlet with a beautiful view of the countryside. The old house needs to be completely renovated to turn it into a Guest House for tourists, family or just for friends and the second house has to be updated.

There are no immediate neighbours and the property's location is beautiful and very quiet. And of course, the land is ideal for creating a small activity, be it touristic or agricultural, or both.

The old house is partly laid over a cellar and is on one level. The main entrance is via a small staircase directly onto the 126ft2 kitchen with a chimney and wood range cooker. To the right of it, a 118 1/2 ft2 bedroom. Behind it, a 43ft2 storage room. To the left of the kitchen, a 37 1/2 ft2 bathroom with a WC, a washbasin and a shower. Finally, a 148 1/2 ft2 living room-diner. The attic above is not convertible. The roof is in good condition having partly been recently renovated.

The house' has character charm still present outside must be found again inside. The second larger house is laid over a full-size basement on garden level that is accessible through a double door situated in the outer gable wall. The living space on the first floor is accessed via an external solid staircase with a double-glazed porch. The central entrance landing has an independent fitted 94 2/3 ft2 kitchen to its right.

To its left, the 301ft2 tiled living room with a built-in fireplace. There is a door to the right leading to the 120 1/2 ft2 master bedroom with a 21 1/2 ft2 adjoining bathroom, fitted with a washbasin and a shower. Separate toilet right behind.

Access to the second floor in the attic is gained via a staircase in the entrance landing. There is a 161ft2 guest bedroom in the middle of this floor with splendid views over your own land and beyond. This room is surrounded by three different lofts spaces of 64 1/2 ft2, 64 1/2 ft2 and 290 1/2 ft2 respectively.

The basement consists of a pantry, a utility room and a cellar. The roof is okay, there is double glazing, though the electricity and interior decoration need an update, as well as the septic tank.

The adjoining land around the buildings is 6 1/5 acres and there is an entrance gate to the property.

The outbuildings are made up of a well, a stone bread oven and shed, two barns of 485ft2 and 603ft2 of floor space as well as several other tin built outbuildings, vestiges of the property's agricultural past, but all these temporary buildings can be taken down.

There are a few mature trees in the courtyard, which provide welcome shade during warmer periods.

The separate land, which is almost an acre in size, is separated from the rest of the property by a small public dust road and includes a vegetable garden and an orchard which needs to be remeasured by a land surveyor as it is part of a larger plot of cultivated fir that can be bought separately.

This property is located in Meuzac, just a few minutes from the shops, school and about thirty minutes drive from Limoges.

The department of Haute-Vienne is in the region of Limousin and boasts a varied landscape of forests, countryside and lakes that attract many tourists each year looking for a range of activities including walking, fishing, sailing, boating and skiing.

In addition, the department has a strong historical and cultural heritage and the landscape is dotted with Roman churches, abbeys and fortified castles. Beautiful man-made beaches are easily accessible and are a good alternative for a great day out. In particular, the Lake of Vassiviere, created in 1950, is extremely popular with visitors.

It is sometimes known as the Land of a Thousand Lakes, the Limousin and its Haute-Vienne department offer beautiful and preserved landscapes. Waterfalls sparkling in the middle of rocks and trees, myriads of flowers and impressive dense forests are the kind of treasures that can be discovered in the department.

Transport links are good too, the easy and cheap access from the United Kingdom with companies as Ryanair or from French cities made that Limoges and the Haute-Vienne became an attractive destination. There is also a project of enlargement for Limoges' airport.

The department has a semi-continential climate with summer temperatures in the mid 20's, perfect for enjoying the scenery.
