Midi-Pyrénées, Lot, Padirac, France

Wonderful opportunity to acquire 2 charming stone properties nestling in over an acre of beautiful landscaped gardens with fruit trees, enjoying far reaching countryside views from its peaceful location near Padirac.

Surrounded by some of France's most beloved and beautiful villages, this is a well maintained ensemble of two large and fully independent houses.

The original farmhouse offers 235m2 of habitable space which includes 4 or 5 double bedrooms, 2 living rooms and a very attractive contemporary verandah with lovely countryside views.

The unconverted attic could offer additional accommodation, subject to permissions. Standing on a large cellar including storage areas, a boiler room and summer kitchen, the property offers a very well laid out and spacious home with some lovely character features, including a souillarde.

The second house was originally a large stone barn and pigeonnier. Professionally converted, the building has operated as a very popular chambre d'hote but could serve equally well as a fully independent gite or a second family home. The 135m2 of habitable space, currently includes a fitted kitchen, living areas, 5 air conditioned bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, and is completely independent of the original house standing a few metres apart.

The property is ideal for multi-generational living, or a new owner who wishes to develop the business further (subject to application for necessary permissions).

The exterior of the property is well presented and offers attractive gardens, a large cistern for rainwater recuperation, a well, fruit trees and the option to include an additional area of approximately 4,000m2 of adjoining pasture if desired.

The large garage could also serve as a workshop or storage.
