Midi-Pyrénées, Aveyron, Galgan, France

This charming stone house, offering 105m² of living space and a south-facing aspect, sits on a 1700m² plot. It includes a 34m² lean-to that can accommodate two vehicles and a 125m² stone barn on two levels, for which a valid planning certificate (CUB) has been granted, allowing for its conversion into a dwelling. All the partitions in the house are made of brick, facilitating the layout of the different levels. This property possesses considerable charm and significant potential for development, making it ideal as either a very large main house with outbuildings or a house with a rental gîte. On the ground floor, a 54m² stone space with a concrete slab can be converted to suit your needs; a vaulted alcove enhances this large room. On the first floor is the kitchen/dining room with a fireplace, covering 25m², followed by a 20m² living room and a small bathroom. In the entrance hall, a wooden staircase leads to the second floor, which comprises a large 26.5m² room that could be converted into a double bedroom or office. There is also a toilet, a 7m² office, and a 12.5m² bedroom. The north-facing facade of the barn overlooks the Plomb du Cantal mountain, clearly visible on clear days, giving it a unique character that complements the charm of the stone, slate, traditional timber framing, and exposed beams throughout. The property includes a well that could be used for watering the garden or to conserve water for the house. The land area also allows for the installation of an individual wastewater treatment system sized either solely for the house or for both buildings, should a complete renovation project be undertaken. The barn, with its adjoining land, will also appeal to gardening enthusiasts, permaculture practitioners, or those seeking a beautiful space for an orchard.
