Description

A36357ARV58 - The fun part of this job is discovering beautiful places that you would normally never pass by.
This is also the case with this manor, also called Chateau (de) Cussy from the time it was founded. It was built around 1850 by a large landowner. Her staff lived in the annexes.
For generations, the domain had an agricultural function, which can also be seen from the many large barns. In 2000, the domain was taken over by the current owners, who, in consultation with the local population, restored the main building to its original state as much as possible.
This house has therefore been renovated with respect for the history and character of the building.
* due to a certain calculation method this house has a lot of estimated energy consumption. This does not reflect reality, those costs are lower.

You drive through a beautiful gate into the courtyard.
The sheltered courtyard offers space for many possibilities, for example for a beautiful rose garden or growing various types of fruit. It is a wonderful place to stay. On the plot you will find various fruit trees and a vegetable garden, as well as a
diverse and varied vegetation, suitable for permaculture or food forest
With various terraces there is always a wonderful place in the sun or shade to be found.

The original main entrance is at the front of the building, but you can easily enter the building via the kitchen or the reception area (now serving as a library) on the side of the courtyard.

The spacious kitchen is a great space to prepare a delicious meal in the company of family or friends. Cooking is currently done on gas and electric. After this space you enter the reception area which is now furnished as a library/office. Continuing on you enter the enormously spacious living room which runs from the front to the back and contains a beautiful fireplace with an insert wood stove.
On this floor there is another spacious bedroom with private bathroom at the front and the entrance at the front with hall and staircase.

On the first floor there are 2 bedrooms with private bathrooms and another 3 bedrooms with a shared bathroom.
Via a fixed staircase you enter the spacious attic which is currently not in use, except for some storage of things.
Underneath the entire house is a cave, of which 1 part is furnished as a wine cellar and 1 part for the boilers and laundry room.

On the property there are two very large barns and other outbuildings that can be furnished/used as desired. The roofs of these barns have been completely renovated.

The current owners have run a Chambre d'hote, Table d'hote (cooking with products from your own garden!) and organised wine tastings in the cave for years. This could be picked up again immediately, most of the furniture is included in the price! Ready to move in and start your new life!

By creating a toilet and shower in one of the outbuildings, one could even think of a small mini-campsite.
In short; A wonderful place with a nice atmosphere, possibilities and a beautiful view over the rolling landscape.

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.
