Built of local "rose" stone, parts of this lovely L-shaped and spacious farmhouse (the vaulted cellar) date back to the 15th C. It abounds with period features yet provides all the comforts of a modern life-style. Heating is provided from a log-burning "insert"with the warm air being ducted throughout the main rooms of the farmhouse.Plus the original 'cantou' fireplace. There is some double-glazing and the house is fully-furnished with quality fittings, fixtures and furniture. There are 3 charming bedrooms,a large loungeplus a'family room'/lounge or 4th bedroom, a dining-room, inner hall, utility, fitted kitchen and bathroom. Outside, 2 patios catch the sun throughout the day (BBQ & garden furniture included), ample 'off-lane' parking and a large safe garden. The property has an air of total relaxation; it is situated well-back from a quiet lane used mostly by tractors and a few locals,with a retired farmer's home on the opposite side of the lane. Yet the nearest village, with bars, shop, 'boulangerie' & tennis courts is only 1.5 miles away, whilst the bustling little market town of Meyssac with its campsite and public open-air pools and the world-renownedCollonges-la-Rouge (one of 3 "plus beaux villages de France" close by)areapproximately 3 miles away. Water sports etc are available 15 minutes away on the River Dordogne at Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne, or on numerous rivers & lakes in the region. The whole area offers wide-ranging activities to suit all interests and ages, and is particularly steeped in history & tradition. The 2 cities of Brive and Tulle are both 30 minutes' drivefrom the farmhouse, as is the motorway network via the A20, and rail links to all parts of France including the Motorail to Boulogne. The new international airport just south of Brive is due to open in 2008. Only an hour-and-a-half away are the ski resorts of the Massif Central. The property would be equally suited to those seeking a permanent or a holiday home and is an ideally-situated base to explore or look for property to buy in 3 of France's most beautiful 'Departements'.
