Full of character and charm, this spacious 10 bedroom property is situated in a quiet setting in Saint Ciers sur Bonnieure, and includes the main residence, 2 gites, office space, barn and over 4 hectares of land.

Main house:
Ground floor: entrance hall (16m2) with plumbing and can be used as a utility area; bedroom (20m2) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling and a fireplace and a shower room (shower, sink and WC); sitting room (30m2) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling and stone fireplace; spacious dining room (27m2) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling, exposed stone feature wall and a pretty stone fireplace and with a second staircase to the first floor; kitchen (25m2) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling, exposed stone wall, a range of kitchen units and a pair of glazed doors to the garden and access to a large utility room (about 36m2) which houses the heat pump as well as backup oil and wood fired central heating boilers.

First floor: landing; 2 bedrooms (13 and 18m2) as well as a shower room, a bathroom and a separate WC. A steep staircase rises to one of the attics which has been converted to provide a room (11m2 – with limited head-height). At the end of the landing a door opens to a 3rd bedroom (11m2) which has a door leading to a second landing/office (19m2) with exposed beam ceiling and a wooden staircase down to the dining room. Off the landing is a shower room.

A steep staircase rises to the second attic which has been converted to provide 2 rooms (18 and 13m2). To the left of the landing a door opens to a large bedroom (25m2) which has a mezzanine sleeping level (about 17m2). From here a doorway leads through to the master bedroom suite with bedroom (13m2), dressing room and shower room (shower and twin sinks). There is also a door to a staircase down to the games room (so the master suite could be easily turned into a further gite).

Additional buildings/rooms:
Games room: a door from the utility room in the main house and a large doorway from the garden both open to a very large room which provides useful storage and which has also successfully served as a reception/party space. The building was formerly a barn.

Gite 1: to the far end of the party room a flight of stairs leads up to a space (41m2) which currently serves as a 2 bedroom apartment with a sitting area, kitchenette and shower room.

Offices: next to the apartment are 3 large rooms that have been used as offices (48, 43 and 32m2) which could be converted to further gites (subject to any relevant change of use permissions).

Barn: the rest of this outbuilding remains as a barn and provides a large storage space.

Gite 2: detached from the house and barn is a pretty gite with living room (33m2), 2 bedrooms (14 and 10m2) and a shower room.

Exterior: the buildings sit on an edge of a village plot of 47,460m2 (over 11 acres) with 3 access points from the lanes. Part of the land forms the gardens with orchard and vegetable garden. The rest of the land forms paddocks for horses. To the rear of the house is the swimming pool area with a large heated pool (12 x 6m), terracing, pool house with WC, kitchenette and barbecue.

This is a substantial property where the current owners have undertaken a great deal of work – and yet there is still potential for further development should the new owner wish (subject to any relevant permissions).
