For Sale 3 Renovated Houses with 2 barns, 1km from Magnac Laval 87
Offered for sale are three renovated, houses with two barns and a total of 5 bedrooms; set only 1km from the centre of the popular town of Magnac Laval, in the Haute Vienne. But nestled in a beautiful hamlet with stunning countryside views.
These properties have a wealth of original features, with immaculate gardens and breathtaking views; and are situated in such a way that each has its own little piece of private paradise.
Each house is separated by a barn, so there are many different options for living; if it was me and I wanted to live in France, I would have the larger of the houses which is nicely separated from the other two by the old bread oven and a good sized barn and then rent/gite the other 2 out for an income.
There are so many opportunities with this beautiful collection of houses; you would have to see them to appreciate their charm.
The town of Magnac Laval has all the amenities needed for everyday living including bars, restaurants and supermarkets.
Limoges airport is a 50-minute drive; Poitiers airport is around 1 hour 20 minutes away drive. A 10-minute drive away is the train station at Le Dorat, where you can commute to Limoges or Poitiers in ease, the latter providing cross platform TGV connections to Paris, Bordeaux and other French cities plus Brussels and London (via Lille).
The current owners bought the properties as a main home with a project and have transformed them significantly over the years they have had them. Since buying their situation has changed and it is now time to move on to the next adventure. These properties are a hidden gem just waiting to be discovered.
