In a quiet hamlet on the edge of La Trinité-Porhoët, this well-maintained cottage with lovely private garden is very comfortable and has a lovely, warm feel to it. The kitchen is very much the heart of the home and there are three bedrooms as well as two other rooms that provide flexibility with the accommodation. Just 1.3km from the town where there is a boulangerie, bar & Tuesday market as well as regular music nights. It’s a quiet retreat, with a vibrant community nearby.
The house is semi-detached, but the adjoining property is a holiday home that is rarely used and the grounds are not overlooked. Outside, there is a private courtyard with ample parking, a garden, summer house and gazebo, with a temporary swimming pool currently set up beyond the courtyard.
In the current arrangement, the owners have 3 bedrooms, but there is plenty of flexibility should you need additional sleeping space. Here’s the current layout:
Ground floor
Entrance hall
Professionally fitted kitchen
Sitting/dining room with direct access to the garden
Additional room suitable as a home office

Outside
The grounds are private and well maintained, with a grassed garden and patio to the front.
At the rear, a gated gravel courtyard provides generous parking and leads to two garden sheds, a summer house and gazebo area. Beyond the courtyard is further lawn, currently with a temporary swimming pool.
The property offers plenty of outdoor space without creating a large amount of garden maintenance.
