6 Bed House for sale
Neuillay-les-Bois, Indre, Centre, France
Full Description
Large, bright and elegant maison de maître with plenty of space and a separate suite. This welcoming village is a short distance from Châteauroux, the capital of Indre, and offers easy access to work, the motorway and the regional shopping centre. Situated opposite a 12th century church, the salon features original plaster ceilings dating back to 1825, when the rector may have lived here. The centre of the house is much older.
Central heating is provided by a new, economical village wood-fired boiler. The house is insulated, has partial double glazing, two rainwater harvesting tanks, a water softener and fully updated electrical and plumbing systems. The roof is fully insulated.
The house is steeped in local history and housed a forge for horse-drawn carriages and a small boat-building workshop during the 20th century. The workshop buildings have since been removed from the rear of the house and a large terrace with awning has been added.
