Full Description


On the edge of a small French village is this house with flat. The village has a real French village atmosphere. With its church and Auberge in the center, the village square and its own train station at 10 minutes walking distance of the house.Magnificent viewsThe house has no nearby neighbours, its own private driveway and benefits from beautiful rural views to the south over the rolling Limousin countryside and several hamlets. The house has a cozy living room (15.70 m²) which has a wood-burning stove and a beamed ceiling. The adjacent kitchen (12.8 m²) is large enough for a dining table. The bedroom (12.4 m²) can be accessed from the kitchen. The bathroom has a shower, bathtub, toilet and washbasin. At the front of the house is a terrace to enjoy the beautiful view over the rolling country side : this never leads to boredom but lets you enjoy every time! If you want to enjoy the beautiful view even more and more often, you can turn the window next to the wood-burning stove into a door for a direct(er) connection to the outside. FlatOn the other side of the house, an external staircase leads to the upstairs flat of almost 40 m². You enter in the kitchen, and it further consists of a living room, bedroom and bathroom (shower, sink and toilet). Handy when the family comes over or to rent out to France lovers! To add the flat to the house, the creation of a stairwell in the barn will be the most obvious. The roof has recently been redone (Januari 2025).   
There is a cellar under part of the house, accessible from the outside.
Adjacent to the house is a large barn (13.5m* 7m) with wide double doors. Ideal for vehicle storage. Plenty of space remains for other storage or hobbies. Next to the barn is a covered workshop and covered storage for a car. 
Besides the views, this house has the great advantage of having been renovated in 2018, the house has a new roof and is connected to the municipal sewer system.Outdoor livingThe low-maintenance garden features 20 fruit trees, including apple, pear, cherry, plum, peach, fig and walnut trees, as well as raspberry, strawberry, blueberry, blackberry and kiwi. All pies, jams, juices and smoothies can be made from fruit from our own garden! There are also stone borders with flowers.
In front of the house is the former bakehouse, now used as a laundry room. But can also be put to good use for pickling fruit and vegetables from the garden......
A chicken run and space for vegetable plots are at the back of the house. The old pigsty now serves as a stable for the horse. The field which has a track from the stable is just under an acre and quite suitable for a horse or other animals. 
The plot faces due south. The land slopes gently. Ideal for keeping a horse, donkeys or other small livestock!Amenities and surroundingsIn the village is an Auberge where there is also a dépôt de pain. There is a Mairie and a public school. The nearby villages of Saint Germain les Belles and Masseret are slightly larger and have more amenities with a bakery, local shops, butcher/traiteur, a garage, pharmacy, a restaurant and a café. Both villages also have a beautiful swimming lake with a cordoned-off beach area. Around the lake are several playgrounds for children and in Saint Germain les Belles there is also a (public) tennis court. A Camping Municipale is not lacking in either village. For the supermarket, drive a little further to the village of Magnac Bourg or to Uzerche, which otherwise has all amenities. The station in La Porcherie has a good connection to the cities of Limoges and Brive, but these cities can also be reached by car within 45 minutes.
