For Sale charming 4-Bedroom country home with gardens, cottage, barns with conversion potential near Droux, Haute-Vienne (87)
Nestled in a peaceful hamlet at the end of a quiet no-through lane, this delightful four-bedroom character home offers the perfect blend of rural tranquillity, comfortable modern living, and exciting future potential.
Set within approximately 2,030m² of beautifully landscaped gardens and enjoying lovely views across the surrounding countryside, this property is ready to move into and equally suited as a permanent family home, holiday retreat, or investment opportunity.
Despite its wonderfully secluded setting, the property is conveniently located just minutes from the thriving market towns of Magnac-Laval, Châteauponsac, Le Dorat and Bellac, providing easy access to shops, restaurants, schools, healthcare and everyday amenities. Limoges Airport is approximately 44km away, while Bellac railway station offers connections to Poitiers, where TGV services provide direct links to Paris, Bordeaux, London and Brussels.
The current owners have lovingly renovated and enhanced the property, creating a warm and welcoming home full of charm and character. A change in personal circumstances now presents an opportunity for new owners to continue its story.
The House
The accommodation centres around a bright and sociable open-plan kitchen, living and dining space, complete with a traditional Godin wood-burning stove that creates a cosy focal point during the cooler months.
A separate dining room opens directly onto the rear terrace, providing an ideal setting for indoor-outdoor entertaining and family gatherings.
One of the property's most exciting features is the former forge, a substantial 50m² space full of character and possibilities. With its attractive glazed double doors and generous proportions, it offers enormous potential to create a spectacular additional living room, studio, workshop or entertaining space.
A ground-floor WC completes the accommodation on this level.
Upstairs, the home offers four comfortable bedrooms arranged across two landings. The first landing serves two bedrooms and a shower room, while the second provides access to a separate WC, a third bedroom, and the principal bedroom with its own ensuite facilities.
Outside
The outdoor spaces are every bit as appealing as the house itself.
To the front of the property stand two traditional barns and an independent cottage awaiting renovation. Subject to any necessary permissions, this charming building could become guest accommodation, a holiday let, workshop, artist's studio or additional family space.
To the rear, a wonderfully private gravelled terrace provides the perfect place to relax, dine al fresco and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. There is also an enchanting stone outbuilding that would make an ideal hobby room, craft studio or home office.
Beautiful, reclaimed stone steps lead up to the gardens, thoughtfully designed to offer something for everyone. Expanses of lawn, mature planting, vegetable-growing areas, charming outbuildings and a delightful children's play area incorporated into a former piggery create a truly special outdoor environment.
An above-ground swimming pool completes the picture, providing a welcome retreat during the warm summer months.
