Ladignac-Le-Long (87) - 17th century..

An absolutely unique and fascinating property, dating from the 17th Century, which has been restored within the last 12 months using environmentally friendly materials to create an eco-friendly house with open plan spaces that exude charm and character. The roof has been completely replaced and new plumbing and electrical wiring installed. The property comes with just under 1 hectare of land, part of which is currently used for growing organic vegetables, and a large barn which could be converted into a second house.

Stone steps lead up to the original wooden front door which opens into the ground floor room which extends to 54m2. At either end of the room there are wood burning stoves set within attractive fireplaces and a simple corner kitchen. The rest of the space is currently used partly as a dining area and partly as a comfortable lounge. There is also a fitted shower cubicle. Large windows ensure plenty of natural light and there is a fully glazed door leading to the rear courtyard.

A bespoke spiral staircase leads up to the first floor which is currently arranged as one bedroom with a bath but could be divided to create two bedrooms with a separate bathroom. Four large Velux windows have been installed to ensure that this is a lovely light filled area and exposed wooden beams help to create a superb ambiance. The roof has been lined with sheep's wool to create a natural insulation.

To the rear of the house is a cobbled courtyard with various small outbuildings including an original bread oven awaiting renovation. Enhancing the environmentally friendly credentials of this property, this is also where a composting toilet has been installed.

The land at the rear of the house is primarily grass along with an orchard with a wide variety of fruit trees and soft fruit bushes.

Across a quiet country lane sits the barn which, subject to gaining permission, would make a wonderful project to create a second dwelling. To the rear of the barn is a field that is used for growing organic vegetables and comes complete with poly tunnel!

The property is located just outside the pretty village of Ladignac-Le-Long which has a range of local facilities, whilst it is only 15 minutes to the town of Saint Yrieix La Perche which has supermarkets and wider range of shops and restaurants. The surrounding countryside is stunningly beautiful yet you are within just 40 minutes of Limoges with its international airport.
