Meilhards, Limousin 19510

Situated in the middle of its greenery of about 1,500 m², on the outskirts of a village at the gates of Corrèze, this house, built and enlarged in the 1970s and offering a single-storey living space of about 140 m² of living area, may be your next piedàterre or your family home. Apart from the very good quality structural work, it will require a complete modernization of its interior to restore the life it had in its younger years. House The house, raised on a full basement and oriented eastwest, has two entrances, the main entrance via a hall (about 10.5 m²) on the west side and the secondary entrance to the left of it, on the north side, via the kitchen-dining room (about 20.5 m²). Facing the entrance are a cloakroom (about 1.5 m²) and a toilet with a washbasin and bidet (about 3.5 m²). Then, two steps descend to the extension of the house comprising a large bright living room (about 42 m²) with an open fireplace and two French doors to the west-facing, shaded terrace with a large linden tree. In extension of this room, there is a bedroom (about 12 m²) with built-in wardrobes and an office (about 12 m²), also with built-in wardrobes. On the first floor, the staircase from the living room leads to a landing/mezzanine (about 5 m²) serving, in the attic, two bedrooms, one on the east side (about 9 m²) with a dog-leg window and the other with a window on the south gable (about 13 m²). From the landing, a shower room with a WC (about 4.5 m² under Carrez law) and a corridor with storage (about 4 m²) complete the layout. Finally, if desired, a convertible attic (about 40 m²), currently accessible only by a ceiling hatch in the kitchen, could provide more living space by creating a dedicated entrance from the first-floor landing. It is up to you to let your imagination do the rest... Basement/outbuildings The stairs to the basement and the upper floor lead from the living room to a garage-workshop (about 48.5 m²) on the garden level, a boiler room (about 25 m²) housing the central oil-fired heating system (to be modernized) with a door to the south garden, and a cellar (about 38.5 m²). Its garden The garden typically resembles that of a secondary home with a lawn and ornamental trees. In other words, its landscape remains to be created. It slopes slightly and is fully enclosed, either by a fence or by trees, surrounding the house of its nearly 1,500 m². The house is set back from the road leading to the village. If the trees on the east side are pruned, the view is beautiful and open, and one can directly see the Monédières massif reaching 922 m in altitude to the east from the house. Access and amenities The property is located in a small northern Corrèze village that has a multi-service shop, a garage with gas station, and a country bakery. It lies between the more developed villages of Chamberet to the east by 10 minutes and Masseret to the west by 10 minutes, at the edge of the A20 motorway. Limoges city center is 40 minutes away and those of Brive-la-Gaillarde and Tulle 45 minutes. Masseret has a railway station allowing you to travel by train to Limoges or Paris/Bordeaux/Toulouse...
