Haute Vienne - Bed and Breakfast Business with Imposing and Stunning Property with Incredible Views

Property Description

Situated high in the hills of the Haute-Vienne, in the picturesque village of Bersac-sur-Rivalier, this stunning and imposing property enjoys truly spectacular views across the surrounding countryside towards the hills of Ambazac.
For anyone who has dreamed of moving to France, enjoying a more relaxed way of life but still needing to generate an income, this property could offer the perfect answer. A beautiful and spacious family home sits alongside a separate, established bed and breakfast, all surrounded by terraced gardens with a small swimming pool, large barn and workshop.
There is a wonderful feeling of space here, both inside and out, and the elevated position means that the countryside views are never far away.
The principal house is beautifully presented and offers generous, comfortable accommodation over two floors.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the large open-plan kitchen and dining room. This is a wonderfully sociable space, perfect for family meals and entertaining friends, with a beautiful traditional stone fireplace, tiled floors and plenty of natural light.
A separate lounge provides a cosy place to relax, retaining its original wooden flooring and featuring a wood-burning stove ? just the sort of room to settle into on a winter evening.
Also on the ground floor is a second large kitchen, which is particularly useful when catering for guests or larger gatherings. There is also a workshop/storage area and a bathroom with bath and WC.
For anyone wanting additional ground-floor accommodation, there is potential to reorganise part of this space to create another bedroom, subject to any necessary permissions and works.
Upstairs, the house continues to impress with four generously sized bedrooms, an office area and a shower room with WC.
Perhaps the surprise of the first floor is the fabulous lounge of more than 40m². With exposed beams, original wooden floors and plenty of character, it is a fantastic additional living space. From here, doors lead directly onto the covered terrace and gardens, making it a lovely place to sit and enjoy the surroundings.
Separate from the main family accommodation is the dedicated bed and breakfast annex, allowing owners to maintain their own private home while guests have their own space.
The BetB comprises five large letting bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom facilities.
There is also a welcoming reception area, guest dining room and a separate kitchen dedicated to the bed and breakfast operation.
The accommodation has been created with both guests and owners in mind, providing everything needed to continue operating the business without having to compromise the privacy and comfort of the main house.
The five guest rooms can accommodate up to 17 people in total, making the property equally attractive for couples, families and larger groups travelling together.
The outside space is every bit as appealing as the accommodation.
The terraced gardens climb around the property and provide various places to sit, eat, relax and simply take in the surroundings. Thanks to the elevated position, the views are quite exceptional, stretching across the beautiful Haute-Vienne countryside towards the Ambazac hills.
There is a small swimming pool for those warm summer days, together with plenty of outdoor space for guests and family alike.
A large barn and separate workshop provide valuable additional space and could also offer further possibilities depending on the plans of the new owners.
This is perhaps where the property really comes into its own.
It isn't simply a large house with additional bedrooms; it offers the possibility of combining a wonderful family home in rural France with an established source of income right on your doorstep.
The bed and breakfast works extremely well and, importantly, has the potential to operate throughout the year if desired. Summer visitors can enjoy the lakes, countryside and outdoor activities of the Haute-Vienne, while the wider region continues to attract visitors outside the traditional holiday season.
Lac de Saint-Pardoux, with its beaches, swimming, watersports, cycling and outdoor activities, is around 20 minutes away, while Limoges and its airport can be reached in approximately 30 minutes.
The property also benefits from mains water, mains drainage and electricity, with solar panels helping supplement the electricity supply and wood-fired heating helping to keep running costs under control.
For many people, moving to France is about far more than simply buying a house. It is about changing pace, enjoying the countryside and creating a different way of life ? while still having the means to earn an income.
This property offers exactly that possibility.
You can have your own spacious family home, welcome guests into a completely separate five-bedroom BetB, enjoy beautiful gardens and a swimming pool, and wake up every morning to some truly magnificent countryside views.
