At the edge of a small hamlet with 4 houses just 5 minutes' cycling distance from the horse capital Arnac-Pompadour stands this authentic artist's house. This French farmhouse has lots of authentic details. Upon entering, you immediately notice the large fireplace with a wood-burner and old doors to the attic and bedrooms. Beautiful old wooden floor and beams set the mood.
Once the plan was to split the ground floor into two living areas to rent out one part as a gîte.
Hence the ground floor consists of a living with separate small kitchen, small simple bathroom (shower, washbasin, toilet), 3 bedrooms, another (dining) kitchen and living. A staircase in the dining kitchen takes you to the attractive bathroom (bath, toilet, washbasin) above. The sloping roof has been painted by the current owner (artist).
A large attic with skylights serves as a studio. Behind it is a large attic without insulation but with lots of space. Underneath the house is a spacious basement with headroom.
Old houseNext to the house is an old house of around 80 m2 that could be converted into a gîte, for example. An ideal place for DIY enthusiasts. The walls are there, and the rest can be converted as you wish. The space is large enough for 2 or 3 bedrooms and a kitchen in which the old fireplace is a lovely feature.What's more, there's a large awning (asbestos roof) where you can carry out work.
The gardenThe grounds cover around 4,400 m2. A large part is surrounded by trees, so there are no overlooked areas. There is space for a vegetable garden and a large terrace.....
Access and amenitiesThis artist's house is on the edge of a small hamlet of 4 houses, 5 minutes by bike from Arnac-Pompadour. Arnac-Pompadour has some charming old houses in the centre, but it is best known as the main production centre of Anglo-Arabian horses in France. During the summer months, it is busy with horse races, dressage competitions and other equestrian events held there. Fans from the immediate area but also from abroad come to Arnac-Pompadour racecourse on those days. It is not unusual to place a bet on the horse races held here.
But the huge medieval castle is also a tourist attraction. The first castle was built in 1026 by Guy de Lastours. In 1745, Château de Pompadour was bought by the then French king Louis XV, who gifted it to one of the king's favourite mistresses. The castle is known by the name Madame de Pompadour. The castle includes the famous stables and horse-riding school.
Fashionable Brive is 3 quarters of an hour away. The Limoges is a 50-minute drive away. Its airport is at the same distance.
