Description

A47936JBH86 - Character stone built, detached, three bedroom house sitting on an enclosed plot of 1760m2. This pretty house is waiting for you to add your own touches, move in and enjoy living in the calm Vienne countryside.

Pulling into the gated courtyard, the house stands fully detached in its grounds. A generous barn to the right side of the house gives plenty of storage space and has the benefit of an insulated workshop.

The house itself is full of character whilst providing comfortable modern living. The current owner has installed air conditioning/reversable heating LG units in the living room and bedrooms 1 and 2.

The living room of 35m2 has two windows facing the garden and a log burner. From there you enter the kitchen with an external door to the side the house. The cream coloured kitchen units have fully integrated fridge/freezer, oven, microwave and dishwasher.

To the right a hallway leads you to the downstairs utility room, WC, a further room of 14m2 used as a dining room. If ground floor living is required, the utility room could be converted to a shower room and the dining room a bedroom.

The attached barn can be accessed from the this hallway.

Taking the stairs to the first floor, a large landing opens into the three bedrooms. All with very generous ceiling (two fully vaulted to the roof) heights. No issue with head height in this lovely old house.

The current owner has fully reconfigured the bathroom to include a stunning roll top bath and large Italian walk in shower. Definitely a statement bathroom!

The barn offers plenty of storage and leisure space. The current owner made an insulated workshop in what was the old hay-loft. Although this can not be classified as habitable space, it is nonetheless very useful. Even if only used as dry storage.
Below the workshop is an old animal shelter with original manger and cobbled floor.

The garden wraps round the building with mature trees and plenty of space for gardening and a pool if required (subject to the relevant planning permissions)

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.
