Perfect little cottage in a hamlet, just four minutes from the market town of Valence-sur-Baise. Very well-renovated by the current owners, this house is ready to move in to. It retains lots of lovely features while being very comfortable to live in. You enter into the large, open plan kitchen/dining room of 41m² with cupboards to your left and the laundry area behind. This room is light, bright and full of character with stone walls barn doors and a fitted kitchen with central island. Off this room is the salon with its 17th century stone wall, modern and efficient wood-burner which heats the whole house, and very nice wooden staircase with stone steps. The whole space, being open, is perfect for family living and is nearly 70m² in total. Upstairs you have one large bright bedroom with velux windows and white painted floorboards, and a parental suite – a large south facing room with a dressing room and shower room with WC. Off this space is the landing which is big enough to house a desk and could be used as a bureau. There is also a large family bathroom in very good condition. So here you have a large, perfect two bedroom house but you need a third bedroom? The property that the current owners bought used to be three workers cottages, and they have renovated two of them to make this lovely house. From the kitchen and from the bureau/landing on the first floor you have two more rooms, just waiting for conversion. This part, the far end of the building to the right has it’s own entrance, so could be a small gîte or B B as there is the old staircase linking the two rooms. It could be a proper office for someone working from home with a bedroom above. Downstairs could stay as a store-room as it is at the moment (always useful) and upstairs could be converted into a third bedroom, as the living area of 70m² is ample for a family of 4/5. There is lots of scope here. The house sits on a tiny lane. All the neighbours put tables, chairs and plants outside their front doors in the summer and use the lane as their gardens. No cars go down this lane. The house comes with a barn of approx. 25m² which could be converted in to a garage or used as a workshop. Attached to this is a small terrace. This house would make a perfect holiday home, or principal residence for someone who likes to get out about, a great first-time buy for a young family, or good for someone with a project to do chambres d’hôte or gîte. It really is a must see. For more information or to organise a visit, please contact our Lectoure agency on 05 62 29 59 57.
