Monségur, Aquitaine, Address available on request

Situated in a small hamlet a short distance from the popular town of Monsegur, this south facing house is filled with original features such as terracotta floors, beautiful fireplaces and an old, stone sink. Attached to a neighbour on one side, it is south facing with gardens to the front. There is also a large barn, generous gardens and a swimming pool at the back of the property and a first floor attic which could be renovated to provide additional accommodation.

The house does require upgrading, but the internal layout of the property is such that it could relatively easily be brought up to date and be given extra bedrooms, bathrooms and reception space - subject, as always, to the correct permissions being obtained.

The hamlet is within walking distance of a village with an infant school, post office and shop/cafe. The nearby town of Monsegur has a much wider range of shops and services as well as a cinema, tennis club and popular weekly market.
