Full Description


This property is made for those who like a neat (holiday) home and do not like DIY : this house is ready to move in! The garden is surrounded by trees, shrubs and a hedge and the house is in a quiet area. The layout The house, built in the 1970s, had a traditional layout with a garage on the ground floor and the living floor above. The best use has been made of the spaces the house offered, resulting in over 100 m²/1076,39 ft² of living space. The garage doors at the front have been replaced by a sliding door : here you are directly in the summer kitchen (25.46 m²/274,05 ft²) with light tiled floor and plastered ceiling. To the left, a spacious bedroom (12.25 m²/131,86 ft²) with nice laminate flooring. On the right side, a multi-purpose room has been created, equipped with a kitchenette, toilet, shower cabin, infrared-cabin (not included) and two storage cupboards. One of the two cupboards houses the boiler.
From the summer kitchen, stairs lead to the living room. As it is located on the first floor and also has a large sliding door, this is a wonderfully bright room (15.7 m²/168,99 ft²). It is heated by a pellet stove. Next to the living room is a bedroom (12.17 m²/131 ft²) with a built-in wardrobe. On hot days, the living room and bedroom can be kept nice and cool by the recently installed air conditioning. Both rooms have a beautiful chestnut parquet. Adjacent to the living room is a terrace. On the west side you can sit and enjoy the sunset in the evening. Through the terrace there is also an external staircase to the garden.
The hallway gives access to a practically laid-out kitchen (7.39 m²/79,55 ft²), equipped with an electric hob, extractor fan, single sink, dishwasher and a cupboard equipped with a combination oven. The neutral bathroom provides a shower cubicle, washbasin and toilet. At the end of the hallway, the former bedroom (8.97 m²/96,55 ft²), with parquet floor, has been converted into a dining room. So there is plenty of space to dine together or with friends! In the hallway is a built-in wardrobe for coats and shoes. Here is also the back door from where you go to the garden. There is a stairwell to the insulated, unusable, attic floor. The garden This house offers its ideal spot in the garden for every moment of the day. A cup of coffee on the balcony in the morning, a nice lunch on the terrace at the back of the house in the afternoon, and if it's too hot, a cooling drink under the tree at the side of the house. And from every seat there is a view of greenery or flowering plants and shrubs. At the front, the house is hidden from view by a tall conifer hedge and two large firs. The back is also a perfect spot for the set-up pool. The outdoor shower is frequently used there! The surrounding fields, mostly sown with grain or maize, provide a varied view of the tree-lined rear.
The house plot measures 2,070 m²/20,7 acres. There are a number of fruit trees. For those who miss the vegetable garden : there is a 1,550 m²/15,5 acres plot next to the house, where the buyer with green fingers can plant a large vegetable garden. The current owner has this plot mowed once or twice a year by a farmer. The total area is 3,650 m²/36,5 acres.
The red shutters and cheerful red and white awnings provide the necessary shade in summer and give the house that extra touch! Garage There is a garage at the side of the house, but the car is often parked on the driveway in front of the house or on the grass next to the garage. The garage of almost 30 m²/322,92 ft² offers enough storage space for a garden tractor, garden furniture and tools.Amenities For the nearest bakery and small supermarket, you have to rely on the neighbouring village of Sauviat sur Vige, which can be reached within a few minutes. For weekly shopping, the village of Saint Léonard de Noblat with its medieval centre is the place to be: here are several supermarkets, bakeries, shops and bank branches. At lunchtime, many find their way to the various restaurants Saint Léo has to offer. To change habits, you can also go to Bourganeuf, which is about 20 minutes away. The city of Limoges is about a 45-minute drive away, and the airport about a 50-minute drive away.
