Farmhouse (2km from Razes) in Haute-Vienne, Limousin

Property. Ref: AML-LOU97 Date Added: 02-September-2010 Map / Approx. Location

Situated in the heart of the Haute Vienne department of the Limousin just a stone throw from the popular lake of Saint Pardoux and within walking distance of the village of Razes is this stone house with 3 barns in need of complete renovation but at this price it makes a bargain priced project for someone with 1684m2 of attached land.

Don’t be mistaken this project is not for the faint hearted but the end product will be very rewarding in this much sought after area, Saint Pardoux lake is very popular
for fishermen, and nautical sports.

The property itself comprises of a stone house of approx 100m2, it is believed the house used to be owned many years ago by a local stone mason and some of the facing stone has defiantly been reclaimed from local chateaux to build. The house is on 3 levels although at the moment hard to access as the stairs have collapsed and the house will defiantly require a new roof. Directly next to the house is a barn which again would need a new roof but perfect to extend the house into this barn. Next to this is then a structure of an old barn the roof has collapsed completely, but this would make a beautiful terrace area walled garden. Next to that is an open fronted barn in good condition with a new roof perfect place to have a mobile home caravan whilst renovating the property.

The current owners have approached the local mayor with regard to taking the building down and building new, but this has been refused and the mayors office are insisting the property must be restored, although there is a parcel of land at the side of the property which is deemed as constructable land that would probably be granted permission to build.

As already stated the property sits on 1684m2 of its own land in a small French hamlet, the village just a couple of minutes down the road has bakers, chemist, 2 bars and school.
