Aquitaine, Dordogne, Le Fleix, France

The current owners have sympathetically modernised this lovely home whilst keeping charm and character in abundance. As well as a delightful garden surrounding the property across the small lane is a field which offers 2 small building plots. Please note that should you just want to purchase the house and garden then this is an option at at a reduced price so please read on. Also note that the land could just be used for keeping chickens and growing veg etc.

The house comprises:

4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms (these include the parental suite, and the integral annexe with its bedroom area, ensuite bathroom and kitchen/breakfast area - this part being ideal for paying guests , the current owners offer seasonal B and B) There is an impressive vaulted entrance/dining room, a bedroom/office, a salon with woodburner and picture window a modern kitchen with 4 metre patio doors leading to the terrace with its panoramic view over the valley, a rear kitchen/laundry room with storage shelving, and a good size shower /WC
From the salon a corridor leads to another bedroom and to the parental suite with its bathroom and dressing area and, once again, that superb view over the valley.

The versatile layout features a central sitting room (26M2) complete with stone fireplace and a super picture window overlooking the garden and the views opposite. This room opens into a fully equipped kitchen (28M2). There is also an adjoining laundry room (9M2) with a dishwasher and storage, and from there is the back lobby with cupboards and its own door leading to the terrace.

Returning to the sitting room, a hallway leads to the master bedroom with bathroom, WC, and dressing room (33,5M2), plus a second bedroom/office (13M2).

On the other side of the sitting room, there is the dining room (20M2) and entrance hall with a high vaulted ceiling with two Velux windows. From here we have a third bedroom/study (10M2) and a large shower room/WC with walk-in shower.

A corridor, lined with cupboards, opens into a self-contained suite (26M2) with bedroom, shower room/WC and a small kitchenette with superb view of the valley.

Outside at the front of the house, there is a fully fenced flower-filled garden and a large parking area. Behind the house is the large terrace and below that is an area that is ideal for a swimming pool which would look out across those fantastic views. The garden is alive with butterflies, birds, and bees. There are occasional glimpses of the deer as they wander through the vines and owls hoot at night from the woods..

Across the lane (a very quiet lane) there is a southeast-facing plot that has planning consent for two small dwellings, a possibility for gites maybe..! or if not it could be fenced and used to keep goats, sheep, or even donkeys as well as a large space for a vegetable garden. As previously mentioned this property could be sold without the field/building land, which would reduce the price and make it a very easy maintenance, comfortable pretty house with manageable land and THAT VIEW!!

Next to the house, there is a 19.5m² insulated wood workshop with a covered area for the wood for the fire. This space would also be fantastic for an artisan/artist. It would be possible to add a carport to this if you should wish.

There is a modern 'green' reedbed drainage which is odor-free and virtually maintenance-free.

The village of Le Fleix is only a 2-minute drive away and has all amenities plus walks along the Dordogne River.

Saint Foy la Grande is less than 10 minutes by car and has its fantastic all-year-round Saturday market. Saint Foy la Grande also has a train station which is great for getting to Bordeaux and beyond! Bergerac airport is 24 Km away and Bordeaux airport 91 Kms.
