Labastide-Murat, Midi-Pyrénées

Reference: MLSM-T10028. Sitting in a quiet hamlet surrounded by beautiful countryside, this picture perfect stone cottage offers comfortable accommodation on three levels. With exposed stone, large fireplace, restored chestnut flooring and original beams the house is comfortable, charming and everything you would hope for from a French cottage. The main living area offers large open living, dining and kitchen spaces. With windows on both sides and exposed stone the room is light and welcoming. The fitted kitchen area offers plenty of storage and working space and the original open fireplace is a delightful feature for a very comfortable room. Slightly raised from the garden level the room enjoys lovely views of the very attractive gardens. Stairs up to the first floor lead to a large bedroom, with exposed beams, and full bathroom with additional storage areas. The garden level offers another large double bedroom with doors leading directly into the gardens or onto a quiet private terrace. A large open area could serve as an office area or second sitting area with access to a bathroom, laundry room and wine cellar. There is an additional storage area with internal and external access, ideal for tool and garden storage. The second stone building offers a useful guest annexe. The downstairs room could serve as a living area or bedroom with a full bathroom. Upstairs currently offers a large bedroom with exposed stone and beams throughout. Ideal for guests or even as a separate office. The large gardens have been thoughtfully planted with mature trees and shrubs and are the perfect backdrop to this charming property. The property has served its current owners as a much loved second home for many years but would be equally suitable as a main residence. With its proximity to Cahors and Gourdon, fibre optic internet, access to the rail and motorway networks and within 2 hours of 4 airports, this property is as practical as it is charming - absolutely one to see quickly.
