Description

A42269JET23 - On the ground floor the exposed granite and woodburner in the fireplace make for a nice welcome into the sitting area (there is also an internal door to the additional accommodation which would once have been a little house) . Behind is the spacious kitchen with fitted units and a central island. Another woodburner in the corner has a back boiler which heats the radiators through most of the house.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a newly fitted bathroom (2024/5), with bath and walk-in shower. The bathroom has underfloor heating and a radiator which is dual power using either the backboiler or electric (it also can also be wifi operated). There is also a large walk-in wardrobe or storage area off the landing.

Stairs lead up to the coombed ceiling loft, with a Velux window, which could be used for storage or as, for example, a small craft or hobby area.

From the living area there is a door to a hall (with plenty space for coats and storage) leading to a summer kitchen and second sitting area. The woodburner here is currently decorative. This side of the house is heated with electric radiators as necessary (with the exception of the summer kitchen which also benefits from a backboiler radiator). Upstairs there is a bedroom and bathroom. This could easily be used as a gîte or for family visits.

The fibre internet connection averages good speeds, if you need to work from home. There is mains water, and the hot water boiler is wifi programmable. The fosse was completely renewed in 2024. There is double glazing.

The large adjoining barn has a workshop, and space to store wood and a car. There is also a toilet and utility area with space for large freezers, a washing machine etc. Workshop 3.7x6.3. Barn section 11x6m.

The garden is lovely. There is a gravel terrace near the house and a covered area for eating out. There is a pond with fish (if the heron keeps away), fruit trees, a small stone store, flower beds and a beautiful blossoming cherry tree in the centre.

Across the lane there is another outbuilding and some land (900+m2) where the current owners keep their hens.

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.
