18 kms from South of Limoges
Renovated Stone House, Gîte, 2 Barns
& Reception centre
with 8HA (18.60 acres) of adjoining Land.
Complex with Scope for Expansion!.
Opportunity to purchase a large renovated detached
stone house, enormous barn, reception centre, Gite & detached
barn set within 8 hectares of adjoining land (4 acres
wooded & the remainder paddocks/grassed). Not only are
both the house & Gite completely renovated & ready
to move into, but add a reception building & conference
room to the list & your horizons are limitless.
This property as a whole is in exceptional condition
& is ideal for anyone wishing to do more than provide
just Gite accommodation or Chambre d'Hotes. Adjacent
to the largest of the 2 barns is a reception centre, complete
with facilities to cater for conferences etc. Within the largest
barn are 2 double sized stables complete with self feed water
supply to each stall. Part of the upper level of the barn
has had the floor boarded to provide a games room. To the
side of the barn is an enclosed kennel area large enough for
several dogs. Even the chickens have their own coup &
enclosure to the rear.
The property has good road links, being less than 5 mins from the A20 & less than 15 mins from Limoges & the airport.
Until recently the property has operated under Gites de France,
but no bookings have been taken for 2006 due to the impending
sale. At present there is just the reception centre &
a one bed roomed Gite, however the detached barn if converted
would make a large rental property, whilst the largest barn
could be converted to provide an activity centre or further
guest accommodation. The buildings are set around a large
courtyard located at the end of a private driveway. The stone
walls within the house & barn are a metre thick.
