Full Description


For sale in the Limousin a 19th century Manoir (ca 550 m2), renovated while preserving historical details, used as a B&B with wheelchair accessible flat and independent gîte (210 m2), beautiful gatehouse with workshops, stables and large attics (530 m2 in total), quietly situated near the medieval village of Le Dorat in the north of Haute-Vienne. The buildings are surrounded by a wooded plot of 6600 m2.

The Manor
This 19th-century building located in the Limousin campaign houses 16 rooms, including 14 bedrooms over 3 floors. Each floor occupies two wings (these are called the towers) and a middle section. The rooms are connected by wide corridors and an antique, wooden staircase connects the floors. The many historical details contribute to the charm of this Manoir, such as the antique marble fireplaces, carved ceilings, tiled floors, antique parquet, beautiful woodwork or the double French doors.

On the ground floor are the spacious entrance hall and the reception rooms: the "small" salon (27 m2), the "large" salon (42 m2) partly furnished as a dining room and partly as a music room. Furthermore, on the ground floor you will find a large kitchen (25 m2) with pantry, a guest toilet and a wheelchair-accessible master suite with large bathroom and access to the front garden.

The classic wooden staircase takes you to the first floor with a 23 m2 landing, 6 bedrooms (15 to 29 m2), 2 bathrooms and a separate toilet. A dressing room offers the possibility of an additional bathroom.
The second floor takes you via another large landing to 7 bedrooms (15 to 29 m2) and 2 bathrooms.

The attic has an area of about 165 m2 and can be converted into living space if desired. The Manoir is heated with wood-burning stoves and some electric radiators. It is possible to buy this Manoir furnished.

The 8 bedrooms in the towers (4 per floor) are currently rented out as B&B for lovers of nature and tranquillity.

The gîte
This guest house of 210 m2 was created in a former outbuilding, with on the ground floor a large dining room (70 m2) with open kitchen and access to the back garden. A wooden staircase leads to the 1st floor with a bright and large lounge plus a sleeping area with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom.
The gîte is heated with a wood-burning stove and is rented for 4 to 6 people.

There is also a 70 m2 workshop in the gîte building.

The gatehouse
The estate is accessed from the road by a large gate under a 19th-century gatehouse with two side wings. In it are 4 large annexes, over 2 floors with a floor area of 4 x 140 m2. To the right on the ground floor a large atelier. To the left on the ground floor is a stable building with horse stables. Above the studio and stables are two beautiful attics, both of which can still be converted for various purposes.
Next to the gatehouse is the former dovecote, where there are now 3 rooms with a large stock of firewood.

The Park
The buildings are surrounded by the private terrain of over 6600 m2, sheltered by centuries-old trees and provided with a beautiful grassy meadow in front of the house. The grounds are partly walled.
Two wells offer the possibility of using the groundwater for irrigation after installing a pump.

Location
This property is located in the campaign in the north of Haute-Vienne at 16 km from Le Dorat (town with medieval cité) and 6 km from Lathus Saint Rémy with bakery and small supermarket.
