JUST REDUCED! A REAL BARGAIN!!

A recently renovated 19th century, 8 bedroomed townhouse located within 5 mins walk of a small château town, between the larger towns of Guéret and Limoges. Ideally situated, the house sits within landscaped gardens of just over 2½ acres, with direct access to the stunning Gorges du Verger and the beautiful Limousin countryside beyond.

The property is accessed via electric double gates and is approached along a private, beech-lined driveway. It is currently operated as a luxury Chambres d'Hôtes, registered with Gîtes de France, and all the guest bedrooms have been awarded the maximum '4 épis' rating.

Sympathetically renovated and decorated to a high standard, the property boasts modern conveniences such as double-glazing, en-suite bathrooms, mains drainage and full central heating, yet retains its elegance and charm with many original features.

Situated in a very attractive market town, typical of the region, with interesting buildings and charming little streets to explore. The town is well supplied with shops, museums and restaurants, and there is plenty to see and do. There are daily Ryanair flights from London Stansted to Limoges airport which is approximately 50 minutes by car from the property.
