Property Description

In Brief: Renovation Project with many possibilities, set in lovely countryside:
Huge Barn with habitable pod; Old House (currently workshop);
Garage; Piggery; 3240m² (over ¾ acre) of land; lovely views. Not for the feinthearted- a lot of work still to do; requires builder or ability to afford one!
Situation: North East Charente 16500: This group of stone buildings has a fabulous
position at the edge of a tiny farming hamlet with beautiful surrounding countryside
including several renowned beauty spots; no overlooking neighbours; only 10mins
walk from a pretty village with bar, chemist, bakery, butchers, swimming pool etc
and a beautiful fishing lake; a short cycle ride from 3 further villages with several
highly recommended restaurants; approx. 15mins from the lovely market town of
Confolens; 45mins from Limoges Airport.
Description: This old farm is the last property on the tiny lane; the Old House &
Garage (footprint of approx. 130m² & currently used as a workshop & store) sit on
the lane at the entrance to the plot and the Vast Barn (footprint of approx 380m² &
ample height for a floor!!!) holds a privileged position at the top of the plot with
fabulous views down to the hamlet on one side and across the lovely rural valley to
the others. The old piggery (approx. footprint 36m²) is in front of the barn. The
project would be ideal for gites; artists; workshops; vehicle collectors; small
holding; equestrian etc etc
