To me a holiday does not involve spending hours in the garden, so if you want a holiday home with little maintenance, conveniently located between the main local airports, at a really competitive price, look no further than this former butcher’s shop.
The front door opens into a part-fitted kitchen with a wood-burning stove, and to the left is the former shop area, which could be converted into a more substantial kitchen or extra living room. To the right is a beamed dining room with windows opening on to the front and side of the house. To the rear of the ground floor are a hallway, a sizeable below stairs pantry/utility room and a lounge with a door on to the side garden. The first floor has three bedrooms, a bathroom and a study/storeroom, and on the next level is a large attic with potential for conversion into two more rooms. The house has wood heating as well as electric radiators and is on mains drainage.
As well as the small garden to the side there are two separate plots of land, and there is off road parking at the front.
The house is in a small village with a bar, post office and small grocer’s shop. For main shopping Magnac Laval is a 10 minute drive or La Souterraine about 20 minutes. Poitiers and Limoges airports have daily services between France and the UK, and either can be reached within an hour. ©
