Perhaps this house should be preserved as a fine example of a mid-20th century French town house, but since it is for sale here is an opportunity to purchase it at a knockdown price and with a little updating you have an excellent holiday home or gite with all amenities a stone’s throw away.
The front door opens into a small tiled hallway, to the immediate left of which is a lounge with fireplace. Beyond this, separated by a glass partition, is a part fitted kitchen, and to the rear of this a laundry area with a separate wc. Under the stairs is a cellar, and to the right of the hall is another lounge. Upstairs are three bedrooms, one with the traditional “tommettes” tiled floor, but needing refurbishment, plus a bathroom. There is an attic space above this level but currently only accessible through a trapdoor. Modernisation will be required but the house has mains drainage and could easily be connected to town gas.
To the rear is a small terraced garden with a stone outbuilding and there is a separate allotment of 700m² with a stone shed a short drive from the house.
The house is in a quiet street in the centre of a small market town which provides most commercial needs. The city of Limoges, famous for its porcelain, is less than an hour’s drive, and its airport has daily services between France and the UK as well as to Lyon and Paris. © |
