- The house has 6 bedrooms' 4 double (1 with en-suite bathroom), 2 twin one of which has restricted height in the attic- 2 shower rooms with w/c , laundry room /store.
The rental income over the past years is substantial with lots of untapped opportunity to grow the income.
La Croze Farmhouse in the last 6 years earned euro 155,454; an average of euro 26000 per annum with great potential to increase this.
At the moment it is only let for 9 weeks per annum as we use it some of the time as our holiday home yet it still generates a substantial income or simply enjoy the house all year if it is for you and your family to live full time.
It is a brilliant house to buy as an extended family retreat, everyone can have a holiday and still enjoy a substantial income from the investment.
The house has manageable secluded gardens set below an impressive cliff with its own cave and spring, lovely woodland views and a vine-covered dining area with a bbq.
There's a 10 x 5 metre heated pool with a large decking terrace, a gravelled area to the front for playing boules etc.and a grassy area at the back and a lovely terraced garden.
The property is on the edge of several beautiful woodland walks with breathtaking views. There is space for at least 4 cars.
A five minute walk from the house takes you to the river and the village of La Roque Gageac. Here you'll find a medieval church, gardens, great views, post office, gift and wine shops and several lovely restaurants and cafes for enjoying what the French do best! Canoeing is very popular and a lovely way to see the countryside and chateaux from an interesting angle. Just walk along to the canoe base, paddle down the river and then a minibus brings you back from your chosen stopping point. You can take a boat trip from the village too on the flat bottomed gabarres which used to transport produce up and down the river.
This is a really superb location for a full time home or holiday home in the Dordogne. It's set in the heart of the most celebrated part of South West France. No fewer than five chateaux are within a mile or two of the house and the famous medieval town of Sarlat is only 5 miles away.
The picturesque vllage of Beynac (2 miles) was used as a film location for 'Chocolat' and Beynac chateau is well worth a visit. Castelnaud is just over a miles walk away along a beautiful riverside path through fields of sunflowers. Marqueyssac Chateau has world famous topiary gardens to see and a lovely cafe with stunning views. . Chateau de Milandes was famous as Josephine Baker's residence in the 1930s. The medieval town of Domme is about 3 miles away. Here among the cobbled streets are lots more charming shops and restaurants.
The Dordogne is simply a glorious place to be - a paradise of beautiful tree-clad landscapes studded with medieval castles, ancient churches, bastide towns, and amazing caves. Pretty Perigordine houses abound, with their steep roofs and pigoniers.
The area is of course renowned for its food and there is no shortage of restaurants and auberges.
People have lived here for 40 000 years and evidence of the past is everywhere. From prehistoric dwellings, castles of the Hundred Years War to the medieval and Renaissance buildings of Sarlat, there are historical sites everywhere you look. The beautifully preserved town of Sarlat is only 5 miles away.
The Dordogne is also world famous for its prehistoric sites. At 15 miles away, the entire Vezere Valley is a Unesco World Heritage site and the home of the National Museum of Prehistory, Lascaux IV and countless fascinating caves.
There can be few better locations for a home or holiday home in the Dordogne than La Croze - close enough to walk to all the facilities in La Roque Gageac but set in its own peaceful woodland paradise.
