Arrival & First Impressions

A spacious gravelled driveway, with parking for three or four vehicles, leads you to the front terrace where a charming stone-built bread oven sets the tone for the character and craftsmanship that defines this home. The setting is immediately peaceful - surrounded by open countryside, yet within a well-kept hamlet that feels both welcoming and private.

Ground Floor - Kitchen, Dining & The Barn Conversion

You enter into a generous open-plan kitchen and dining space (28m2), where tiled floors and a beautifully crafted stone and brick fireplace with wood-burning stove create a warm and inviting atmosphere. A range of solid wooden units completes the kitchen area, blending practicality with rustic style.

From the dining area, a few steps lead you down into the showpiece of the property - a magnificent double-height barn conversion of 53m2. Flooded with natural light, this space is cleverly divided into two distinct living areas: A formal dining room, anchored by a second large wood-burning stove and with glazed patio doors opening to the front; and a relaxed sitting area with direct access to the south-facing stone terrace, sheltered by an elegant ironwork pergola - an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Above the sitting area, a mezzanine level (15m2), accessed by a staircase from the dining room, provides a wonderful elevated retreat with a large picture window perfectly framing the sweeping rural views beyond.

Ground Floor - Bedroom & Shower Room
A door opposite the main entrance leads to an inner hallway with a floor hatch access to the cellar and a ground-floor bedroom (13m2), with attractive wooden flooring and a window overlooking the rear potager garden. Also on this level is a well-appointed, fully tiled shower room (9.5m2), comprising a large vanity unit, double shower enclosure and WC, with windows to both the rear and side elevations.

First Floor - Three Bedrooms & Bathroom

A wooden staircase rises from the hallway to the first floor, where three further bedrooms (9m2,11.4m2 and 11.5m2) are found. Each room tucks into the eaves of the house and, thanks to their character and layout, feels considerably more spacious than their floor areas suggest. Feature wooden floors and beautiful exposed beams add to the rustic charm. A family bathroom (4.8m2) serves this floor, with a Velux window, corner bath, sink, WC and useful storage space.

Gardens & Outbuildings

The property sits on a generous plot of approximately 2,200m2, wrapping around three sides of the house. The gardens have been lovingly developed to offer both beauty and productivity: Sweeping lawns are interspersed with well-stocked vegetable and fruit beds, a flourishing orchard, and vibrant planted borders that deliver an impressive display of colour throughout much of the year. A greenhouse and a second potager are tucked to the rear of the property, whilst at the foot of the garden a substantial hangar provides ample wood storage. A neatly fenced enclosure near the driveway currently houses chickens. A brick-built BBQ sits beside the south-facing terrace, making outdoor entertaining a natural extension of daily life here.

Practicalities

The home benefits from two wood-burning stoves in the main living areas, supplemented by individually controllable electric radiators throughout, managed centrally from a panel in the kitchen. The property is fully double-glazed and fitted with electric roller shutters.

Location

Situated almost equidistant between St-Yrieix-la-Perche (14 minutes) and Jumilhac-le-Grand (11 minutes), the property enjoys excellent access to local amenities, markets and restaurants whilst retaining its serene rural character. Limoges airport is less than an hour's drive away, making this an equally appealing permanent residence or French retreat.
