Charming, spacious granite cottage with enclosed garden, workshop and parking in rural location
This charming detached granite property is located in a tiny hamlet with a few neighbours and on a no-through road. Felletin is 13km away and Aubusson, around 20km. The Pontcharraud commune has a population density of 8.7 people per km2. Both are pretty countryside towns with weekly markets, cafés, and restaurants, and mostly family-run small businesses and shops. From the house you can see the promontory of Saint-Georges Nigremont, overlooking the Creuse, with a 180 degree view.
This site is one of the 500 most beautiful sites listed by the French Cycling Federation. The GR89 hiking trail also runs from a Pontcharraud to Felletin.
This is one of those houses that ticks a lot of boxes - rural, granite with exisiting features, good-sized garden and garage. With 7 bedrooms it would make an ideal family home, chambre d'hote, or countryside second home.
The house, on the edge of a tiny hamlet, looks over the surrounding countryside. There is a small, separate parking area or access can be gained down a tiny lane to the rear of the property. Beautiful wrought iron gate and steps lead to the front of the property.
From the tiled entrance hall and to the left, through double doors, the kitchen has an impressive old granite fire surround and flagstone flooring. There are two fitted units and a beautiful old (non-functioning) cuisinière sits in the fireplace. To the side is a functioning more modern one. To the right of the entrance hall is a large family room with parquet flooring, with patio doors opening onto a small terrace and the enclosed back garden. Straight ahead is the wooden staircase with a toilet and little shower room on the mid-landing.
On the first floor there are 4 bedrooms, one with shower room and WC, and two with sinks. The landing has a large fitted storage cupboard with shelving.
On the second floor the remaining 3 bedrooms have coombed ceilings, which have a separate bidet/sink. One has a mezzanine reach by a wooden ladder. The landing has fitted cupboards and a WC with sink, and there is access to the remaining loft storage space.
There is a woodburner in the family room, and electric storage heater, some with wall-mounted controls, in the upstairs rooms. The fosse does not conform to current standards. Much of the decor is original and would benefit from updating. The slate roof was upgraded in 2022.
The garage joins onto the house and has an upstairs and is plumbed with an old shower and sink to the rear. There is a workshop section to the side and a 3-phase electric connection. There is a cellar and small woodstore. The garden is mainly to the rear with a pathway round the side of the house to the front. There is an internet fibre connection.
