Full Description


This country property for nature lovers and those in search of a more ecological lifestyle consists of a single-floor bungalow with a large adjoining outbuilding, an old stone pigsty converted into 3 holiday cottages (3rd cottage needs to be finished), a large shed for storage or for animals, a pond fed by a spring and 6 ½ acres of pastures. It is located near a village with shops and services, less than 10 minutes from the A20 motorway and 35 minutes from Limoges’ town centre.The main house The Southwest-facing house is fully renovated and comprises on a single floor, an open-plan kitchen-living room with a Norwegian stone-clad wood burner, with access via a sliding glass double door to a wooden terrace with pergola. Then in a row, a bedroom with a built-in wardrobe, a bathroom, and dry toilets. In front of the terrace, there is an overground swimming pool with a nice wooden decked terrace allowing you to enjoy the views and the private exteriors of the house.
In the same building as the house, a stable currently with 6 horse boxes and a fitted tack room, a spare room with a shower, a pantry/laundry room.Two or three guest houses An old stone pigsty over two floors has been converted into 2 independent guest accommodations of approximately 340 sqft each, each comprising an open-plan kitchen-living room with a wood burner, a bedroom, and a private ensuite bathroom with a dry toilet. The attic will house a third guest accommodation (that will need completing) of approximately 565 sqft. Materials to finish the conversion are included in the sale. The existing gîtes are in operation and will provide income through seasonal or longer-term rentals.
The bathrooms and kitchens of the 4 accommodations are connected to a Phyto purification micro station using specific plants to filter sewage waters. If you prefer to connect the existing dry toilets to the abovementioned system, no problem as the necessary pipes are already in place.The land The property benefits from a private gravelled driveway and ample parking space for several cars. A large hangar of around 26’2”x41’ allows vehicles to be parked, equipment to be stored or animals to be housed. The 6 ½ acres of land are completely fenced and can accommodate horses or other animals. A horse sand-based training ground has been set up on part of the land, as well as a paddock. An underground spring runs from neighbouring land through part of the property’s land and feeds into a pond rich in biodiversity, where some wild ducks have chosen to make their home. A lush flower garden and vegetable plot with a large polytunnel will provide you with fruit and veg throughout the year.
The property is located near the village of Saint-Germain-les-Belles with amenities and services, as well as a very pretty swimming lake, a few minutes from the A20 motorway linking Limoges to Brive-la-Gaillarde.
