Description

A47440ABR03 - Dating from 1861, this beautifully preserved former railway station offers a rare opportunity to own a unique piece of French history. Carefully converted into a welcoming family home, the property successfully combines its original railway heritage with modern comfort, while retaining many authentic features including the original ticket window, doors and windows.

The ground floor comprises an entrance hall (6.7m²), a shower room with WC (3.7m²), access to the cellar (13.5m²), a fitted kitchen (15m²) and a spacious 36.2m² living room with a recently installed woodburner, creating a warm and inviting living space.

On the first floor are three comfortable bedrooms of 14m², 14.1m² and 12.5m², together with a shower room (6m²), separate WC and a useful storage cupboard (2.9m²).

A staircase leads to the impressive 47m² loft, which offers excellent potential to create additional living accommodation, subject to any necessary planning permissions.

The property is heated by the woodburner together with electric radiators, benefits from fibre internet availability and is served by a septic tank. The house is sold furnished, allowing immediate occupation or making it an attractive holiday home or rental investment.

Outside, the former station toilets are currently used for storage and benefit from both electricity and water connections. The garden also offers a barbecue area, a pétanque court and an above-ground swimming pool with surrounding terrace, creating an enjoyable outdoor entertaining space.

Situated alongside the picturesque Canal de Berry, the property enjoys a peaceful countryside setting with excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and nature lovers. Everyday amenities including shops, schools, restaurants and services can be found in Vallon-en-Sully just 10km away, while the larger town of Montluçon, only 15km away, offers extensive shopping, healthcare facilities, cafés, restaurants, a medieval historic centre and rail connections. The A71 motorway is approximately 7km away, providing excellent access to Clermont-Ferrand, Bourges and Paris.

A truly distinctive property, equally suited as a permanent residence, holiday home or investment, offering history, character and a peaceful lifestyle in the heart of the French countryside.

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.
