Have you got big plans for your holiday?

You are in a quiet place, at the top of a hill, bordered by small country roads, where the only noise comes from the occasional passage of a tractor and where the pretty red Limousin cows are queens! This project would be particularly suitable - but not only (!), for a young courageous person(s) for his/her/their first real estate adventure or for a buyer wishing to create a holiday cottage, whether he/she already lives in the area or not! For the more ambitious among you, it is possible to acquire, right next door, a second farm to renovate with a total plot of land of almost 3 acres of land. Go to our advert reference 928, € 82.500,= for more information.The houseFacing due west, the house, built during the first half of the 20th century, is partly built on a cellar and includes two main rooms on the ground floor, including the old kitchen (~19’x11’3”) with a very pretty pebble floor to renovate and a large open fireplace, inside which is the entrance to the bread oven. The second room, the old bedroom (~19’x10’8”), includes the staircase to the open attic above (~22’3”x10’5”), which could be converted into a large master bedroom with private ensuite bathroom! All the building’s openings currently face west. There is a public water meter and an electric meter in place, a single water tap and basic fittings for a washing machine, and then the rest is to be created…The outbuildingsTwo small stables, located on either side of the bread oven, could, after having made them connect with the kitchen, be converted into a laundry room and a storeroom. The adjoining Limousine barn is on one level and has a floor area of approximately 29’5”x24’6”. It consists of an open section up to the roof’s apex and a cattle shed with a hayloft above. It is possible either, subject to permission, to convert everything to considerably enlarge the habitable area by creating two usable levels, or to convert the stable part by creating an extension on two floors enclosed by a complete partition wall and retaining a garage/storage area next door. Two open sheds round up the buildings and could be used to create a garage, a woodshed or a summer kitchen. All the buildings are in the buildable area of the village’s planning map, the eastern part being in the agricultural (i.e. non-buildable) area of the property.A flat, fenced garden with viewsThe property is located on the crest of a hill, but in a flat area, suitable for having a vegetable garden, planting trees or having animals. The agricultural land is currently only used for hay or animals by a farmer, but without a rural lease agreement so it will still be freehold. It has a surface area of over an acre which is divided into two parts: a garden on the west side with a well, a fence and hazelnut hedges, while keeping an opening in front of the house to admire the wooded hills of the Limousin in the background. There is even an old stone wall, perhaps the ruins of an old building. A gravel driveway and private parking can be easily built, from the hamlet road located at the same level. Behind the stone buildings, an agricultural land with an access gate gives you the freedom to create your own little rural paradise.Access and amenitiesThe house is located in the village of La Croisille-sur-Briance, 5 minutes from its centre and about forty minutes’ drive from Limoges centre. The village has all the basic amenities, as well as a local school and a community café, and is just over 10 minutes from the shopping village of Châteauneuf-la-Forêt, to the north, with its swimming lake, campsite and large supermarket.
