Poitou-Charentes, Vienne, Availles-Limouzine, France

At the top of the private tree lined drive sits this traditional style farmhouse, to your left is the immense barn and the right are the L shaped outbuildings that together create a courtyard in the centre.

The house has 2 brand new entrance doors, one into the kitchen and one in the centre of the property into the entrance hall.
The stunning renovated kitchen is a huge space (35m²) with fitted units, an island (with electric sockets) insert woodburner and space for dining table and chairs. Next to the kitchen is the large and bright lounge (30.5m²) with tiled floor and window to the front of the property that continues through to the entrance hall. Leading from this entrance are 2 downstairs bedrooms (12.7m² & 15m²) and a bathroom with shower, wc, sink and plumbing for the washing machine.
A new wooden staircase leads up to the first floor. This floor has been renovated from the attic space and just a few finishing touches are required.
There are 3 bedrooms on this level with ensuite bathrooms (the middle bathroom needs the white goods installed) with exposed beams, velux windows and windows overlooking the courtyard at the front. The master bedroom has a walk in wardrobe space and on the landing there is an airing cupboard that also houses the electric hot water heater.
This is a fantastic renovation that now just needs the new owners to put their own stamp on the finishing touches to turn it into the house of their dreams.
Behind the house is a flat area of garden, perfect for installing a pool perhaps, with views across the counrtyside beyond. Attached to the house is an outbuilding, an old stable of approximately 50m², with a door to the front and windows to the rear, that could make a great home office or craft room.

The enormous barn (298m² appprox) is one side of the courtyard with large sliding doors. The roof will need some attention in the near future but this is a fantastic structure that could be developed into something wonderful.
On the other side of the courtyard, closest to the house is an old bread oven in it's own building. Attached to this is a long outbuilding, old animal stalls, (78m²) with a strip of land the other side of them and at the bottom end is an old garage. Another outbuilding is joined to this, in an "L" shape facing the house. Approximately 33m² with doors to the front and little windows to the rear. This whole area could be developed into a gîte complex with bedrooms and living spaces as well as private areas of garden/terrace behind them (subject to permissions).

Overall this could be a fabulous project for somebody with a lovely house to live in at the same time. Only 10 minutes drive from the centre of Availles-Limouzine, 18 minutes drive to the larger town of L'Isle Jourdain and moe importantly perhaps only about 5 minutes from the popular motor racing circuit at Val de Vienne that attracts tourists/drivers requiring overnight accomodation in the area.
Poitiers and Limoges international airports are both approximately 1 hours drive.
