Guéret 22 kms (14 miles) Limoges 110 kms (69 miles) Limoges airport 118 kms (74 miles) Ahun 4 kms (2 ½ miles) 18 hole golf course 25 kms (15 ½ miles) Easy access to the A20 (autoroute Paris-Toulouse) and the N145 dual carriageway This pleasant property is wonderfully located, boasting the most glorious, unhindered views over the Creuse valley and beyond onto the plateau des Millevaches. This highly sought-after area is appreciated for its quiet, rural pace of life and its potential as a tourist destination, for which there is currently an insufficient supply of B&B accommodation. Though off the beaten track, the property is not lost, as main shopping, schools, a surgery, nurse and dentist are only 5km on the other side of the valley. The property is situated in a very small hamlet, set back in its own land off the winding country approach road. Many quiet green lanes for walking or riding. The house sits in 0.13ha. Prospective buyers can buy additional meadow land of 17 ha, including 1km of river frontage. Up to a further 72.45 ha is available to rent @ €127 per hectare p.a. Property history & features Previously owned by a local French couple, the property was acquired in 2003 as a working farm by an Irish couple who have tastefully restored the property to a high standard. They have also added the B&B business by converting the barn, integral to the original house, into 5 fully en-suite bedrooms. The restoration work has been carried out to a very high standard – insulation, double glazing, new windows & doors, re-wired & re-plumbed. The B&B business has great potential but needs to be developed, as the present owners have only recently started this activity. They are selling the property to invest in a new farming venture.
