Description

A44560FEV46 - Nestled in the peaceful and authentic hamlet of Salvezou, just 3 km from Catus with its shops, schools, medical centre and lake, and only 20 minutes from Cahors, this beautifully maintained stone property combines traditional Quercy charm with exceptionally high energy efficiency.
The property enjoys a privileged setting in a historic hamlet, close to the remains of an old château, including a remarkable medieval tower, and a traditional stone washhouse. All village utilities – electricity, telephone, ADSL and fibre – are underground, preserving the character and views of the hamlet.

The main house – 81 m²
South-facing and filled with natural light, the house offers a comfortable layout with:
A separate fitted kitchen, welcoming living room and two bedrooms
Exceptional energy performance: DPE A / GES A
Air-to-water heat pump and combined solar system
Traditional Godin wood-burning cooker, providing additional heating and energy savings
Smart thermostatic radiators controllable via smartphone
Excellent insulation, including 30 cm of blown mineral wool in the attic
A large, dry 81 m² cellar and an 81 m² attic
A beautiful 30 m² travertine terrace, partly covered
A 13,000-litre underground rainwater tank for garden irrigation
Most of the existing furniture can remain, allowing for immediate occupation or a turnkey rental project
Grounds & outbuildings
The property sits in over 6,600 m² of attractive grounds, including a fruit orchard, a fenced 300 m² poultry area with small shelters and mature ornamental trees, including beautiful albizias.
A 88 m² stone outbuilding is located close to the house and could be used as a workshop or garage.

The real highlight is the 140 m² independent barn, with its own address and a superb traditional oak roof structure. Network conduits have already been installed, offering excellent potential for conversion into a gîte, second home, artist's studio or professional premises.

Optional equipment
For buyers wishing to take on the property as a complete project, the owners are also willing to sell the estate's maintenance and agricultural equipment separately, by negotiation, for €22,000. This includes an International Harvester 633 tractor, trailers, forestry and gardening equipment and a comprehensive range of workshop tools.
A rare property combining tranquillity, authentic character, exceptional energy efficiency and exciting future potential – ideal as a permanent home, second residence or tourism project.

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.
