It feels like stepping back in time. Discreetly tucked away, the property surprises with a meadow at the back and several outbuildings: a hangar (originally a tobacco barn), a two-level barn, a shed for firewood and bicycles, and a garage conveniently located next to the house. Forty walnut trees line the meadow, and the nuts are usually pressed for oil at the Moulin de la Vessière in Neuvic. The meadow offers space for a horse or other animals, or to grow food.

The stream gently winds around the property and was once used to transport food to and from a nearby mill. There’s a well with water in the garden and a natural spring.

This 19th-century farmhouse was built using quality materials and traditional methods. The walls are insulated with natural materials. Downstairs, the solid wood front door is double-glazed, while the original wooden windows are single-glazed and secured with traditional wooden shutters. The kitchen and boiler room have original terracotta tiles; the other rooms have pine flooring. The living room features a fireplace with an insert, an automatic ventilation system, exposed beams, views of the stream, a separate WC and bathroom, and a spiral oak staircase.

The attic has been converted into living space. Both bedrooms have Velux windows and views of the stream. Exposed beams throughout reflect the quality of the craftsmanship, with an exposed stone wall in one room and traditional layered brickwork along the staircase. The house benefits from mains drainage, town gas, radiators, and high-speed internet. A fenced garden wraps around the house.

The property is set on a quiet walking and cycling path, not far from a stop for the free bus service. There’s easy access to a public primary school, collège and lycée, as well as tennis, football, and rowing clubs along the Dordogne River.
