Renovated Country House/Watermill For Sale in Between Gueret And La Chatre, Limousin France Idyllic Location Asking Price: 325,000 € (Negotiable) IDYLLIC LOCATION
If you are looking for peace and quiet and a secluded property then look no further than this renovated mill with detached barn and more than three hectares of attached woodland, river and pasture.
The property has a long tree lined gated driveway with entry phone system opening onto formal gardens laid to lawn and mature trees. The river runs through the land and there is a pretty bridge for access to the house. The present owners have several outbuildings including an aviary and a garage plus a small wood store and the detached barn is on three levels measuring in total around 160m2. The ground floor has a store room/workshop area, two stables and a large entrance leading to the upper floor which is partly insulated and has a new floor and four velux windows. This barn could be easily renovated into further accommodation but would require planning permission. It would also be possible to join the barn to the house, perhaps with a large conservatory or kitchen.
The house comprises a fitted kitchen, 13m2, with double glazed windows looking towards the garden, built in fridge, dishwasher, oven and hob and tiled and under floor heating, a small lobby again with under floor heating and built in washing machine and a downstairs WC and WHB.
The living room/dining room 46m2, leads on from the lobby and has a tiled floor, large fireplace with wood burning stove and double glazed windows looking on to the garden. Wood panelled walls to waist level make this room particularly attractive and the original staircase leads from here to the first floor where there are three good sized bedrooms, 13m2, 13m2 and 18m2, and a fully tiled bathroom with a Jacuzzi bath, separate shower and twin wash hand basins. This room also has under floor heating and lovely views over the countryside.
The second floor has been partly renovated with new double glazed oak windows and new floor. At present the only access is by the rear outside stairway but the present owners would be willing to install an internal staircase if preferred and also finish the electrics and insulation after the sale has been completed. The floor space measures around 65m2 and there would be plenty of room for two large bedrooms and a bathroom plus a small landing. Alternatively the space could be kept as one large room or a self contained apartment for rental.
The outside space really is unique as the property is un- overlooked from all sides and there are many country walks starting immediately from the garden and suitable for horses too. Anyone interested in running a smallholding or just keeping a few animals would find this garden ideal and the present owners have peacocks and ducks roaming freely. There is also plenty room for a large vegetable garden if one wants to be self sufficient and for lovers of nature red squirrels, kingfishers, buzzards, herons and deer are among the local visitors. The small lake which was once the mill race attracts wild ducks and there are a number of different varieties of fish to spot.
To sum up, a renovated property but with work to do, if you want, on the barn or second floor of the house or even to join the two together, with a beautiful area of more than seven acres, some of which is natural woodland or prairie with no near neighbours, although the local farmer is wonderful and provides the wood for the fire. The property has electric heating and hot water plus the wood burner .
The town of La Chatre is around eighteen kilometres and Gueret is thirty five kilometres. The nearest town with shops, doctor, chemist etc is Bonnat (fifteen minutes) and the nearest village is Nouziers which has a bar and post office. Limoges airport is approximately 90 minutes.
