Description
A47207SUR12 - Character Stone Cottage with Land, Swimming Pool and Barn in the Aveyron Countryside
Set in a peaceful hamlet surrounded by the beautiful countryside of Aveyron, this charming stone cottage offers an opportunity to embrace the French rural lifestyle, with over 1.5 hectares of land, a swimming pool, a traditional stone barn and spectacular far-reaching countryside views.
Fully modernised while retaining the character and atmosphere of a traditional French country home, the property is ready to enjoy as a family home, second home, holiday property or countryside retreat.
This is a property for those looking beyond a conventional holiday home and seeking a genuine taste of rural France: a character stone cottage, generous land, swimming pool, substantial stone barn and far-reaching countryside views, with the house already modernised and ready to enjoy.
The accommodation is arranged over three levels and includes three double bedrooms, an attractive open-plan kitchen and dining room, and a separate lounge. There is an en-suite shower room to one bedroom, a further shower room on the main living level, and a family bathroom upstairs with both a bath and separate shower, together with a separate WC.
The separate lounge provides a particularly inviting space, with a wood-burning stove and glazed double doors opening onto a spacious sun terrace. From here, you can look across the garden, swimming pool and adjoining land towards the surrounding countryside. It is an ideal place to enjoy a morning coffee, a long summer lunch or an evening drink while watching the sun set over the landscape.
The open-plan kitchen and dining room provides a sociable heart to the home, with exposed character features and a traditional Rayburn range which serves as the cooker while also providing hot water and heating the property through the connected central heating system. For those drawn to the atmosphere and traditions of a French country home, the Rayburn is an especially appealing feature.
Outside, the property enjoys over 1.5 hectares of land, including garden, open areas and wooded ground, providing plenty of space for outdoor activities, gardening, animals, horses or simply enjoying the peace and freedom of the surrounding countryside.
The stone barn, approximately 80m² over two levels, adds considerable versatility and will be particularly attractive to buyers looking for equestrian or hobby space. The ground floor provides ample room for stabling two or more horses, subject to the buyer’s preferred arrangement, while the enclosed upper level is currently used as a garage and could provide useful space for tack, hay storage or other purposes.
The good-sized swimming pool provides a natural focus for summer living and offers an enjoyable space for family and friends. The surrounding pool area has already been levelled and prepared, although some finishing work remains, allowing the new owner to complete the space and create a poolside entertaining area to suit their own taste.
The house also offers additional basement space which is currently unrenovated. Subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents, this could potentially provide a fourth double bedroom or be adapted as a games room, den, office or other flexible living space.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, the property is within easy reach of the picturesque village of Entraygues-sur-Truyère, approximately 11km away, with a supermarket, healthcare, restaurants and other everyday amenities. The property is also close to the famous Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle walking route.
The larger towns of Decazeville, approximately 35km away, and Espalion, approximately 36km away, provide further services, supermarkets, weekly markets, building supplies, hardware stores and other amenities.
