• Bedrooms: 3

This beautiful, grand longère has been lovingly restored to provide a 3 bedroom main house plus 2 gîtes that only require a little further work before they can provide a healthy income. The main home consists of large lounge with original fireplace and wood burner, an excellent well equipped kitchen/diner where you can enjoy uninterrupted views over the countryside and woods beyond whilst having your morning coffee. The attic area of the main house could easily be converted to provide a further 3 bedrooms and upstairs bathroom which would add a further dimension to this property.   The 2 gîtes could be easily finished to provide 2 x 2 bedroom properties or alternatively the plans and COU are all in place to extend the end gîte into the adjoining garage to provide a larger 3 bedroom gîte with separate kitchen.  Situated in a quiet hamlet yet only 8 mins from medieval market town Questembert, where there is a wide range of shops, doctors, dentists, banks, sports and cultural activities, state and private schools, plus only 30 mins to the beaches.

Double wooden doors into garage, 3 small windows to the side, exposed stone wall to one side, block built to 3 sides, opening to the rear, corrugated roof, concrete floor.

The property sits in nearly an acre of land laid mainly to lawn with flower beds and a variety of established shrubs and trees.  The views from the rear of the property are uninterrupted by any buildings and all you can hear is the birdsong from the woods in the distance. There is a gravel patio area to have your BBQ and glass of wine, a ruin with bread oven and a covered storage area for logs.  To one side of the property there are double wooden gates into a private gravel driveway and ample parking for several cars.

There is also land to the front and to the side of the gîtes and garage which once landscaped would make the gîtes totally independent of the main property.

If you keen on riding the local farmers are willing to hire out land for horses.

Telephone, internet, satellite TV. 

Fosse septique in place but would need enlarging once the gîtes are completed.  Plans for this are already in place

Mains electrics and water. Double glazed throughout and with a new roof.

Gas central heating, with the gas tank buried in the rear garden.
