Description

A19483RL61 - Accessed down a no-through lane, this is a superb family home, with the potential to create an independent unit.

Ground floor.
You enter into a hallway with a downstairs double bedroom of 11m2 or office directly in front of you. There is generous built-in storage in the hall. To your right, you find a cosy sitting room of 16m2, with fireplace to your right. The 40m2+ kitchen is to your left. The kitchen has fitted shaker style units and there is more than enough space for a large table and chairs,. From the small snug living room, a door goes through to a downstairs bathroom of around 11m2 also used as a useful utility area for washing machine etc. Off the kitchen is another huge sitting room, with feature fireplace of 44m2 approx. This was a separate dwelling in the past and has the potential to be so again, to have a guest annex with independent access or for two families. From the sitting room, you enter the formal dining room, of approx. 33m2. With its exposed beams, this property is full of character and original features.

First Floor
Stairs in the second sitting room lead to a landing and two more very good sized double bedrooms of 25m2 and 39m2 as well as a separate 7m2 bathroom. The layout is unusual and on multiple levels. There are some steps leading to the bathroom and the 25m2 bedroom is also split level. The larger bedroom offers a good sized storage area.

A ladder stair case in the kitchen goes to a landing area with another bathroom of 5m2 . Steps then go up and then down to another large double bedroom of around 25m2.

The space here is tremendous as the house was once two dwellings, now one substantial family home. It retains much character and original features, with exposed beams and stonework.

Outside.
To the rear there is formal garden area laid mostly to lawn and a veggie patch with beautiful views over fields and beyond. To the front there is parking for several vehicles. You also find two old stone cottages currently used for storage that form part of the property . There is the potential for conversion, subject to permissions. or good workshop space. There are also two additional garden areas or small paddocks to the front and side. The property benefits from two wells. The situation at the end of the lane is gorgeous. It is secluded, with no very close neighbours. Several ferries and airports are reached within two hours drive. Well worth a look.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
