A former farmhouse, benefiting from a contemporary restoration while preserving the building’s original exposed beams and the charm of its stone exterior. It sits completely secluded in the heart of its 3 ¾ acres grounds, in a small village in the far southeast of the Haute-Vienne County, just two minutes from the train station connecting Brive-la-Gaillarde to Limoges, five minutes from local shops, and 35 minutes from Limoges.

The former longhouse with a new lease of life
The house enjoys a south-facing aspect, allowing you to take full advantage of the sun throughout the day. A small glass porch leads into a large living room with a built-in fireplace and a fitted kitchen area. A modern bathroom, bright thanks to two Velux windows, has been created in a former small stable, featuring two showers, two washbasins a toilet and a utility area. Behind the bathroom, a woodshed, accessible from the outside, provides storage for the wood burner. To the right of the living room, a study (Ca. 6’6” ceiling height) has been created in the former stable of the adjoining barn. The house’s entire ground floor has an insulated concrete floor with water-fed underfloor heating installed.

A simple wooden staircase leads from the living room to the first-floor landing, which is bright thanks to its two Velux windows. This leads to two lovely attic bedrooms, one of which is a double-aspect room with a Velux window and a dormer window.

A cellar, located under the kitchen area of the living room and accessible by an external staircase, has a block-and-beam ceiling and houses the large hot water tank.

Several outbuildings
The property has several outbuildings: a Limousin-style barn (open to the roof’s apex) attached to the house; one of its 2 stables has been converted into a study. A stone garage, likely a former sheepfold, attached to the rear of the barn. Extending from the barn are two other simple buildings with a metal and wood structure: a workshop and a tool shed. Finally, a small stone shelter and stone rabbit hutches are located opposite the barn. A deep well provides water for your future large garden or for watering the many animals you can keep on your large property!

Amidst its private grounds
In addition to the advantageous, peaceful location of this house, you can enjoy a large, relatively flat, open plot of just under 4 acres. There is an area with fruit and ornamental trees ideal for an orchard on the western part of the property. Behind the house, there is a large flat area for planting vegetables, and finally, to the east of the buildings, a fenced pasture with separate access for animals.

Access and amenities
Very well located, the property is very close to the train station on the (Paris-) Limoges – Brive (-Toulouse/Bordeaux) line, for those of you wishing to work in Limoges without having to use a car. Otherwise, the motorway access is only 10 minutes away. Your local shops are 5 minutes away in La Porcherie or Masseret. Supermarkets are 15 minutes away in Uzerche or Magnac-Bourg.
