Looking over the valley, with fresh water, outbuildings, and land

We introduce to you this traditional farmhouse typical of this part of the Limousin, built on a hillside overlooking the village of Châteauneuf-la-Forêt—which offers local amenities and a popular swimming lake—and is located approximately 35 minutes southeast of Limoges. The property consists of a complex of adjoining buildings, including a 3-bedroom home with an attached converted annex, a barn, a lean-to, various outbuildings, and a well. A major asset of the property is its surrounding 3 1/3 acres of varied land, offering the potential for a more self-sufficient lifestyle; there is space for a large vegetable garden and room for animals on the hilltop, which commands magnificent views across the valley.The house The house, offering approximately 800 sqft of living space and an east-west orientation, is partly raised above two cellars (accessible via an external staircase). The ground floor comprises an entrance hall, a bedroom with a fireplace, a kitchen featuring a wood-range cooker and a secondary entrance, a dining room, and a shower room with a separate toilet. The first floor features a landing and two bedrooms set within the eaves. There is additional space available for conversion, should one wish. Notably, a brand-new wood-burning central heating boiler and a linked hot water tank were installed earlier this year; this system heats the entire house as well as the separate utility room. Extending to the left of the house—though set back from it—is a former bread oven; its bakery has been converted into an additional living space used as a summer kitchen. The room features wall-mounted storage, a wood-range cooker connected to the bread oven's chimney flue, a gas cooker, and a sink. There is storage space in the attic above.The outbuildings To the right of the house, a utility room has been created in a former stable on the ground floor of the barn; it includes a utility sink, a washbasin, and space for a washing machine and refrigerators. Adjacent to this is a spacious boiler room that also offers generous storage space. Further to the right, an open barn and a hayloft situated above the utility and boiler rooms provide useful space for equipment or animals. Finally, attached to the barn is a long lean-to where the current owner keeps goats and stores fodder. The property is further complemented by an open equipment shed, rabbit hutches, pigsties, small stables, and a covered washhouse heated by a wood-range cooker.The land Set back from the road, the house is accessed via double gates leading to a private tarmac driveway that runs up to the parking area in front of the buildings. A well provides a year-round water supply for the fenced vegetable patch and the flower garden located at the front. A relaxation area, featuring a terrace shaded by several fruit trees, is situated to the side and rear of the buildings. Here, surrounded by nature, one enjoys total seclusion—and the true character of the property becomes apparent. At the rear, three large meadows—two of which are fenced and include wooded areas—are perfect for livestock. A second access point via a country lane allows you to move animals in and out without passing through the main entrance or the outbuildings.Acces and amenities The property is located less than five minutes from the village centre, which offers shops, a weekly market, services, public and healthcare facilities, and a popular swimming lake complete with a campsite and restaurant. The small town of Eymoutiers, situated on the banks of the Vienne River, is just under fifteen minutes away. Two train stations are within a fifteen-minute drive, providing easy access to Limoges, which is thirty-five minutes away.
