BOURGANEUF, Limousin, Address available on request

Rare house built during the "art deco" period of the 1920s, located in the heart of its wooded and enclosed park of 4,366m² in a quiet area of the small dynamic town of Bourganeuf. It has a caretaker's pavilion, a double garage and an outbuilding for animals. It will require a modernization of its interior, but the quality of its construction will delight its visitors!  A few steps up to the covered porch and through the arched oak door to the tiled entrance hall (~17m²). To its immediate right, a bright office (~15m² and more than 3m high ceilings), then, just next to it, the kitchen (~12m²) with its pretty geometric mosaic tile floor and a glass door to the garden on the south side. At the end of the entrance hall, a double glazed door opens into the living-dining room (~39m²) with varnished oak floor and open fireplace. A double patio door opens onto the garden, also on the south side.  A staircase leads down from the entrance to the basement partly under the house. There is a storeroom, a boiler room with the boiler, a closed room for the oil tank, a woodshed and two cellars.  A wide stairwell (~5m²), with a large bay window, goes up to the first floor on a landing (~6m²) with a toilet (~2.5m²) and built-in cupboards (~2m²). The landing leads to 3 spacious bedrooms, one facing north (~16.5m²) and the other two facing south (~15m² & 22.5m²), with 3m high ceilings. From the landing, there is access to the family bathroom (~7m²), which is tiled in blue mosaic and has large built-in wardrobes, as well as an en-suite entrance to the larger bedroom. The smallest bedroom has a private toilet (~2m²) with built-in cupboards. Apart from the bathroom and the tiled toilet, the entire floor benefits from a solid oak slatted floor.  A closed stairwell (~2.5m²) leads to the second floor fitted out on solid oak floors in the attic. A landing (~8.5m²) with skylight leads to a small bedroom-office (~6.5m²), with skylight and exposed main framework, a games room (~11m²) with exposed beams, adjoining a 5th bedroom (~8m²) with a private sink and a window on the north gable, allowing you to admire from a very high level the city below and, beyond, the beautiful mountain the place for family and friendsAt the entrance to the park surrounding the house,  An old caretaker's house was once extended to provide more comfort. There is, on one level, a kitchen (~7m²) with tiled floor, with oil boiler and glazed entrance door, communicating with a living room (~19m² & 2m80 under ceilings) with oak floors and a secondary glazed entrance door.  A door opens into a toilet with toilet (~1.5m²) and a landing leading down to the cellar under the old part (excluding extensions) of the building. This houses the oil tank, an (old) hot water cumulus and an old septic tank (which will have to disappear).  From the living room, a living room (~13.5m²) and a bedroom (~17.5m²) are connected in a row. A closed stairwell leads to the attic (~37m²), which, although having two transverse trusses at a height of about 1.7m, can be converted. The roof of the old building is made of fibre cement slates, while that of the extensions (kitchen and bedroom) are made of natural slate. The outbuildingsTo complete the two houses, we have a double garage (~40m²) in bricks and interlocking tile roof with concrete floor slab, for your vehicle(s). The building is supplied with electricity, but not water. In addition, another building with a wooden structure (~23m²), built against the high stone perimeter wall, and with a fenced garden in front, allows for domestic or farmyard animals. Two small sheds complete the set of buildings on the property. A pretty wooded parkThe house is in the centre of its parklands, which are entirely enclosed by a perimeter wall. A double metal gate with private gravelled driveway allows all vehicles to be parked privately and securely. A wrought iron gate for pedestrians is located on the other side of the pavilion. The land consists of lawn, a south-facing stone terrace in front of the kitchen and a multitude of (large) ornamental trees, including a cedar, several fir trees and a very beautiful camellia! Access and amenitiesThe property is located along a one-way street, in a quiet residential area a stone's throw from the city centre and all its amenities, but outside of any main and noisy access, which is a real asset
