For sale, 2 excellent houses one complete, the other to put the finishing touches to; both with gardens in Saint-Priest-la-Plaine in the Creuse.
The owners originally lived in one of these houses whilst working on a barn conversion in the hamlet. They have since moved into the conversion and preciously rented one of these houses as a gite, whilst working on the second which is close to completion.
The barn conversion is also for sale separately or with these 2 houses.
The houses are in a small rural hamlet but only 8kms from a village with everything you need, including a superette, bank, garage, boulangerie and boucherie. A little further afield a mere 18 and 20kms respectively are the towns of La Souterraine and Gueret.
La Souterraine is a traditional town: with 5000 inhabitants it is the largest town in the west of the Creuse. An undiscovered gem in the middle of France, the town is surrounded by pretty villages on a rolling landscape of lakes and hills. Just outside the town you will find the Etang Du Cheix, a popular leisure lake with a sandy beach where you can relax with the family. If there is a fisherman in the house, you also have Étang de la Chaume again with tourism facilities. The town itself has everything needed for everyday living.
Getting to the area is easy with flights from many UK airports into Limoges (75km/49 minutes) the nearest train station is in La Souterraine with direct links into Paris, Limoges and Toulouse, to name but a few. From Paris you have links to London as well as many other European destinations.
The completed house is exceptionally cute with many original features, it has 2 bedrooms together with brand-new electrics, a fully conforming septic tank, and a private back garden of approximately 990 m² perfect for relaxing and entertaining.
The gite to finish again has many original features, together with an impressive landing, 2 good sized bedrooms and its own private outside space. The electrics are connected and functioning but require some attention. This cottage also has a fully conforming septic tank, direct access to the rear garden, and a charming small ancient cottage just behind ? ideal as a workshop or additional storage.
This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a lot of property for the price, whether you're seeking a permanent home with guest accommodation or the potential to run a small gîte business. We highly recommend a visit to appreciate all it offers
Mains water and electricity; gas (Bottled), are all connected, and nearly all the windows (just a few left to do in the gite) are double glazed, Drainage is to fosses which all conformed at their last inspection. Fibre is available in the hamlet now.
