Perigord, Dordogne: Equestrian..

Rare opportunity to buy a beautifully positioned equestrian property in the beautiful Perigord Vert area of the Dordogne. The property comprises a house with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, 3 barns one of which has 3 stables and a tie up/wash area, a superb 60m x 20m fenced all weather arena all set on 30 acres (12 hectares) of fenced farmland and woodland.

Accessed via a private drive and electric gates, the house and barns are positioned on three sides of the stoned courtyard with direct access to 17 acres (-7 hectares) of the land, with shelter access from most of the grazing. On the other side of the road is 13 acres (-5 hectares) of land which the current owner has cut for hay, including an area of woodland.

The ground floor of the west facing house has exposed stone walls and original beamed ceilings and comprises:
- a kitchen/living room (-32m2) with tiled floor, a large feature open fire place with inset wood burning range/cooker;
- under stairs storage cupboard/laundry (-3m2);

- opposite the house, a beautiful barn (-250m2) with earth and stone floor, 3 doors and 5 windows at the rear (west) of the property and 5 doors to the front (facing the courtyard) making it ideal for stabling or for conversion to living accommodation with the requisite permissions. The barn was re roofed in 1996 when the guttering and fall pipes were replaced as well as the timber work and tiles;

Attached to this is a second barn (-54m2) with earth floor and 6 doors to the outside, again ideal for stabling or conversion into living accommodation;

Between the barns and the house is another large barn (-120m2) divided into 2 parts; one side has an earth floor and a mezzanine for hay storage; the other side has 3 stables: 12m2; 14m2 and 16m2 and a corner wash down area.

Behind this barn is the 60m x 20m all weather arena completed in 2016, fenced on three sides by 1.2m stallion safe post and rail fencing and on the fourth side by the barn on which mirrors could be fitted.

This property is ideal for an equestrian family and has lots of potential for an equestrian based business. Only 15 minutes away is Rouffiac lake, one of the largest lakes in the Perigord National Park set in a 250acres of park and woodland and offering many leisure activities including sailing, swimming, white water kayaking and acrobranch, and 30 minutes away is Arnac Pompadour, the "City of the Horse" which is home to the National Stud and its family friendly racecourse overlooked by the Chateau and the stud where frequent equestrian events are held.
