Description

A45950DRO87 - Set in a peaceful hamlet in the beautiful French countryside, this rare property offers an exciting opportunity to create a substantial family home, equestrian property, gîte business, smallholding or lifestyle retreat. Comprising a main stone house under renovation, two additional houses, extensive barns and agricultural buildings, together with more than 19 acres (approximately 7.8 hectares) of attached land, the possibilities are endless.

Main House

The principal stone house is currently undergoing renovation and offers generous accommodation.

The heart of the home is a superb open-plan living area measuring approximately 11.4m x 6m (68m²), incorporating the kitchen, dining room and living room. A large original fireplace provides a focal point and is ready for the installation of a wood-burning or pellet stove.

Also on the ground floor is a spacious bedroom measuring approximately 6m x 4m, together with a WC.

The first floor occupies the full attic space and currently comprises two large rooms measuring approximately:

11.4m x 6m
4.2m x 6m

A bath has already been installed and the space would lend itself perfectly to the creation of a substantial master suite with en-suite bathroom and dressing area.

The house benefits from recently installed double-glazed windows and a brand-new fosse septique (septic system) will be installed as part of the sale.

Gîte Potential

A second stone building offers excellent potential as holiday accommodation or guest accommodation. Measuring approximately 7m x 4.6m on the ground floor, with the same footprint available in the attic space, the current owner has already obtained permission for conversion into a gîte.

Outbuildings

The property boasts an impressive range of agricultural and storage buildings including:

Large hangar measuring approximately 10m x 20m (200m²)
Traditional stone barn measuring approximately 12.5m x 8.8m with an excellent roof
Agricultural tunnel measuring approximately 19m x 36m with water and electricity available
Extensive additional barn complex comprising sections measuring approximately:
13m x 5.2m
13m x 7.8m
13m x 22m

Part of the larger barn has suffered roof collapse, offering buyers the choice of renovation or reimagining the space as a beautiful walled garden, courtyard or swimming pool area, subject to the necessary permissions.

Additional House to Renovate

A further stone house with a sound roof provides significant additional accommodation potential.

Ground floor accommodation comprises:

Room 1: 7m x 4.3m
Room 2: 7m x 4.2m
Room 3: 4.3m x 3.4m
Room 4: 4.4m x 3.8m

The first floor offers a large open space measuring approximately 13.5m x 7m.

This building could become a second family home, guest accommodation, workshop, artist's studio, gîte or income-generating rental property.

Land and Setting

The property extends to more than 19 acres of mainly flat land situated predominantly to the rear of the houses and outbuildings. The land is bordered by mature trees and hedgerows, creating a private and attractive environment. While not entirely fenced, it offers excellent grazing opportunities for horses or livestock.

Additional features include:

Small pond
Private well
Open countryside views
Excellent equestrian and smallholding potential

Despite its peaceful and secluded feel, the property enjoys convenient access to local amenities.

Azat-le-Ris: approximately 5 minutes, with bar and restaurant
Lathus-Saint-Rémy: approximately 12 minutes (9km), offering grocery store, florist, garage, timber merchant, hairdresser, tabac, bank and other everyday services
Montmorillon: approximately 20 minutes (19km), providing a wider range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, schools and services

Whether you are seeking an equestrian property, tourism business, multi-generational living arrangement, smallholding or simply a beautiful rural project with room to grow, this unique property presents a remarkable opportunity.

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.
