Entering the house you arrive into a very welcoming and homely open plan dining and living room (43m2) with the most wonderful original cantou stone fireplace housing a very efficient wood-burner. To the left as you enter this room is a stunning kitchen (33m2) with lots of original character and charm. The kitchen is spacious, clean and well equipped and you can see the wonderful views from the window whilst working in the kitchen. Leading from the kitchen there is a lovely shower room, a hallway with staircase and a door leading to a laundry room, wc and outbuilding.

Leading through the living room there is another room of 25m2, which could be used as a large office, hobby room or indeed another bedroom if a ground floor bedroom is required.

A wooden staircase leads you to the first floor where you will find a spacious hallway with large window with doors leading to the rear of the property and with a perfect view of the meadow. This area has a wood-burner strategically placed to heat the upper floor and bedrooms. This floor has 5 bedrooms ( 17m2, 15m2, 11m2, 9m2 and 15,5m2) a nice bathroom with bath, separate shower with basins (13.9m2). Completing this floor is a separate wc. There is a cellar underneath the living room of the house accessed internally. Throughout this property you will find beautiful original stone and wooden floors, just beautiful!

Accessed internally and externally is a large space with wonderful cobbled stone floor. In here you will find a storage room, a laundry room and wc.

The house is heated by the two efficient and cosy wood-burners. The house is insulated therefore the wood-burners are all that is needed to keep the property warm. The drainage is via a septic tank and conforms to the current regulations. The property benefits from top quality double glazed windows and doors throughout.

Attached to the house is a very nice and useful craft workshop with wooden pellet wood-burner, making this a super space for using throughout the year. At the other end of the house is a useful storage area and a separate wooden-constructed, fully insulated the double glazed office.

To the left of the craft workshop is a nice area with entrance to the meadow with water source. Here there are outbuildings for wood storage, a garage for a car, a garage for a motorbike or smaller vehicle and stables.

Across the courtyard at the front of the property there is a stunning 1 bedroom stone and wooden-built gite with its own private garden. The open plan ground floor houses a kitchen and living area with a wonderful fireplace and wood-burner. This floor has a nice shower and wash room. The wooden stairs take you to the upper floor which is equally stunning with exposed stone and character features making this a wonderful place to stay.

Within the well-designed landscaped garden at the front of the property, there is a stone floor covered terrace taking in the sunshine, a lovely fish pond and water feature that has been designed to take the water from the natural source. Behind the meadow in a private position with a view of the mountains of the Auvergne is a wooden chalet. The stone gite and the main house have their own lovely gardens and behind the property is the large field for animals if desired and another field a very short walk away. There is also a small wooded area too. Keeping animals or horses would make use of the land or you could just sit back and enjoy the peace and quiet amongst your own land, protecting your privacy.

The Correze is home to a rich variety of unspoilt natural scenery. Its hills, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, forests and footpaths make it an ideal location for many outdoor leisure activities such as cycling, walking and canoeing.

The nearest large town is Ussel or Bort-les-Orgues which are both a distance of 14km. In the town there are shops, supermarkets, vets, doctors, dentists, post office, bank, schools, restaurants and bars. Ussel has a large hospital too.

The quality of this property inside and out is impeccable and the location exquisite.
