Aquitaine, Dordogne, La Coquille, France

A38761LNH24 - This 1-2 bed house lies on the outskirts of the town of La Coquille, and is ideally placed for travel to Limoges, Thiviers or Perigueux. As is usually the case with sous-sol properties, most of the living accommodation is found on the 1st floor. However, with the main bathroom installed on the ground floor, some remodelling may be desirable. Nevertheless, a well-planned remodel has the potential to realise a welcoming 2-3 bedroom property. The first floor comprises a compact kitchen, a dining room with doors leading to a small balcony, a lounge/bedroom, a further bedroom, and a WC. Down the stairs to the sous-sol/basement, you arrive in a garage/workshop, which leads through to an occasional kitchen. Beyond this, the main shower room of the property. The house sits centrally in its plot giving gardens on all sides. A separate wooden garage sits to the rear of the house. Amenities in La Coquille include a supermarket, doctors’ surgery, pharmacy, post office, church, and a train station.

LAND (635m2)
The house sits centrally in its plot of land, so has gardens on all sides. A wooden garage lies to the rear of the house out of site from the road. A main gate to the front gives access from the road.

REMODELLING?
Here’s what this agent would do. On the ground floor, convert the old sous-sol garage into a lounge, replacing the garage doors with glass doors to let in light. This room would then lead into the kitchen-diner (the occasional kitchen as is at the moment). Retain the toilet in the washroom in its current position but add a partition wall to give a WC off the kitchen-diner. Add a second door to access the remainder of the washroom, and use this space with its existing plumbing as a utility/laundry room. Upstairs, remove the wall between the WC and small kitchen to create a larger family bathroom. Use the 3 remaining rooms as bedrooms. Just a thought!
