Property Description: This is it !
The one you’ve been looking for. A singularly beautiful cottage in a peaceful rural hamlet in the heart of the Dordogne, with a stunning uninterrupted view and yet only a half hour drive from Bergerac airport. Set in 3166 sq m of landscaped garden with a large (10x5) swimming pool and a small orchard you need look no further for your perfect retirement cottage or your longed for holiday home.
There is a deep terrace, framed in wisteria, where the present owners spend their summers, either dining as the sun sets over the valley or keeping cool out of the midday sun, snoozing in the hammock.
The house is an old farm building with thick stone walls which keep the house cool in summer and warm in winter, making it a very economical house to run. The main room has a feature stone fireplace with a wood burning stove and two double-glazed French windows leading on to the terrace. The kitchen is small but efficient and comes with all white goods included. Off the kitchen is a barn which is used as a utility room, accommodating the Central Heating boiler and oil storage tank, Washing machine, Dishwasher, large upright Freezer and large Fridge, all included in the sale.
The bathroom is more a wet room with Italian floor tiles and freestanding teak basin unit and shelves and WC.
The main bedroom is very elegant with two large double glazed French windows leading onto the Terrace and garden. The second bedroom is used as an office/hobbies room and has a built in bunk bed. From here there is access to the attic which has potential for further development.
Included in the sale is a four berth caravan (ideal for extra guest accommodation) and an interesting little Shepherd’s hut currently being used as an artist’s studio.
This charming house has been lovingly and sensitively restored to modern day standards without losing any of its original character.
