This property is currently operating as a successful luxury gite business with two stylish properties available. In total there are 10 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms and 2 pools plus plenty of spacious accommodation that could be used in a variety of different ways.
HOUSE NUMBER 1 - LA GARE
Steeped in railway heritage, this building has been thoughtfully renovated to preserve the distinctive character of the former station , built in 1875, while creating a warm, comfortable and welcoming interior. The spacious accommodation combines period charm with contemporary comfort, creating an elegant yet relaxed country-house atmosphere.
The impressive 95m² open-plan kitchen dining area provides a wonderful social space, complemented by a separate, 16m2 comfortable lounge. The main space has underfloor heating and there is also a laundry/pantry area with a separate ground floor toilet.
Across the upper 2 floors, six individually styled bedrooms provide generous and flexible accommodation, with several benefiting from their own private bathroom or shower rooms. A further sitting area on the first floor landing creates an additional space to relax away from the main living areas.
The interiors have a relaxed, homely feel, balancing the property's historic identity with practical modern facilities. Original character and the building's former railway use remain central to its styling, giving the property a sense of authenticity and individuality.
French doors in the dining room lead out onto a flowered lawn with 8x4m swimming pool, terrace area and private garden lounge. There is also easy access to the greenway running alongside the house.
With 270m² of accommodation, generous communal spaces and a private swimming pool opening onto the landscaped grounds, historic character, comfort and modern living come together naturally. A versatile property with excellent potential as a spacious family home, a large gîte, or a chambre d’hôtes.
HOUSE NUMBER 2 - LE QUAI
The interiors of the second property have a distinctive, informal character, designed around enjoying time together rather than formality. A full-size billiard table, bar area and games facilities add to the property's playful, convivial atmosphere, whilst large volume spaces and original architectural features reinforce its unique railway identity.
At the heart of this property is an impressive 100m² open-plan living space, creating a wonderfully sociable environment for family, friends or guests. A large log burner provides a natural focal point, complemented by a fully equipped modern kitchen and a relaxed dining and entertaining area. Underfloor heating in this area adds modern comfort throughout.
An additional private space of just under 100m2 is set back on the ground floor, previously used as an industrial kitchen, which could be opened up to create more living space, separate catering facilities or additional ground floor bedrooms and office space.
Also on the ground floor is a stylish independent walk in shower room and WC.
Four comfortable bedrooms and a walk-in shower room, provide practical accommodation for up to eight people with extra storage space and a gallery view over the main living space.
The property continues the same relaxed approach outside, with a large above ground swimming pool 4x6m, pétanque court and surrounding countryside views, providing a peaceful setting.
With over 160m2 of living space this building successfully continues the authentic railway character with generous contemporary spaces and a relaxed boutique-gîte feel.
Le Quai property also benefits from a working well in the rear garden.
TOGETHER the two separate properties offer two swimming pools, huge gîte / tourism potential and space for family, guests or business use. This is truly a unique opportunity for the right buyer.
Each property has access to ample shared parking and beside the complex is the
Hauts de Tardoire greenway. An evolution of the old railway line, 13km long the that runs from Oradour-sur-vayres to Chalus. It is quiet, shaded and ideal for walks, bike rides and the discovery of the hilly surrounding countryside.
Finally there is also a small plot of adjoining land suitable and approved to build upon.
