Situated on 3 hectares of land, a driveway leads to a collection of stone buildings arranged around a central courtyard. On the left, an open garage is followed by an arched entrance that opens into the courtyard. To the right of the arch is a large barn with an adjoining préau (covered area) used for storing logs for the wood burners.
Inside the courtyard, a stone workshop/store is on the left, and directly opposite is an open-fronted barn that has been converted into an inviting outdoor entertaining area with a bar and seating. The main house sits at the heart of the property, connecting all of these features.
The gardens include various seating areas, barbecue spaces, and fire pits, as well as a gravel terrace and a plunge pool.
Elsewhere on the grounds, there are two large hangars currently used for storage and workshops. These are discreetly tucked away, not visible from the main house or the road. Additionally, there are four usable kennel or poultry houses, plus another block requiring renovation. The property also includes a large polytunnel and a 1,500 m2 pond. The land comprises gardens, arable fields, and woodland.
The property has previously operated as a B&B and has hosted short-term holiday stays. Several electrical hook-up points are available on-site for motorhomes, making it ideal for someone with business ambitions.
Main House Layout
Ground Floor:
Stone curved entrance into a spacious reception/event room (53 m2) featuring exposed granite walls, timber beams, and a large open fireplace. Underfloor heating throughout.
Lounge with another generous fireplace and a wood-burning stove.
Cave (31 m2) with an arched entrance, used for storage and housing the hot water cylinder.
Kitchen (35 m2) fitted with cupboards and a central island. It includes a wood-burning cooker and a second wood burner ingeniously installed in the old bread oven.
WC
First Floor:
Granite stairs lead from the kitchen to the landing.
Separate WC
Large bathroom (19 m2) with a corner bath, shower, WC, bidet, and hand basin.
Master bedroom (31.5 m2) up a few steps from the lobby, featuring a large fireplace and a dressing room.
Along the corridor and up a few more steps:
Bedroom 2 (17.5 m2)
Bedroom 3 (23 m2) with a wood burner in the fireplace and an en-suite shower room (3.5 m2)
Returning to the main lobby:
Bedroom 4 (21.5 m2) located at the rear of the house, with a wood burner and an en-suite bathroom (7 m2)
Additional Accommodation:
Attached to the rear of the kitchen is a shower block with 2 WCs, 2 showers, and a sink. Adjacent to this is a large dormitory-style room previously used for summer accommodation. Please note, this area and the shower block are not heated.
This is a character-filled rural retreat with income potential, flexible accommodation, and abundant space-both indoors and out. Ideal for a family home, hospitality venture, or creative business in the heart of the French countryside.
