Charcter House With Barn and Outbuilding

Charming habitable 3 bed stone cottage in a quiet hamlet, with a large barn and ancient chestnut-drying house to renovate. All on 4200m2 of land (more available), with a pretty well.

The house has been partially renovated, and enjoys an open plan living area on the ground floor of around 40m2, including a cute corner kitchen, and a traditional open fireplace.

All the character has been preserved, and the original wooden flooring glows.

A staircase leads to the first floor, where there are 3 bedrooms, a shower room and an independent toilet.

There is a cellar under part of the house, accessed from outside.

Outside, the pretty gardens are home to a large 200m2 barn on two floors (plus cellar), and an old chestnut-drying house of around 15m2.

These outbuildings are ripe for conversion into living accommodation, and would make a very welcoming and extensive property.

There is also a pretty stone well.

Part of the land lies just opposite the house and barn, across the rural track that runs past the property.

It would make an ideal area for growing vegetables, or pastureland for animals, or maybe an area for camping.

It is a very calm and peaceful environment, lying between Chamberet and Treignac, and at around 7km from each, easy access for all amenities.

Possibility to buy up to 21 hectares more land nearby.
