A much-loved, traditional stone cottage nestling in the heart of the Lot countryside. The property has been restored from top to bottom and is ready for immediate use. It has double glazing, central heating and is on mains drains. The electrics, plumbing, heating and roof have all been revised. The Lot is the department just east of the better known Dordogne. It has stunning landscapes, dramatic gorges, slow moving rivers and numerous beautiful villages such as Puy l'Eveque (9 kms) and the attractive 'pilgrimage' village of Rocamadour (60 kms). Cahors (27kms) is the capital of the Lot and combines historical wealth with plenty of wine and gourmet treats! The cottage probably started life as farm worker's accommodation. Now it has been transformed into a fabulous holiday or permanent home, offering that combination of rural tranquility and views with amenities on the doorstep. The authentic character features have been retained throughout, so you will see walls of exposed stone and plenty of oak beams. The ground floor living space is largely open-plan, combining a sitting room (with enormous open fireplace), fitted kitchen and dining area - in all about 50m2. In addition there is a small office nook, laundry room (4.2m2) with space for a washer and dryer, fully fitted modern shower room/WC and a double bedroom (14m2) with built-in wardrobes and private ensuite shower/WC. A newly installed staircase leads to the first floor where are are 2 further double bedrooms (20m2 & 12m2) each with a modern shower room and WC ensuite. Velux windows let in lots of natural light. The property has been fitted throughout with wooden frame double glazing and shutters. The electric heating will keep you cosy on nights when you don't want to sit by the super fireplace! The grounds extend to 3516m2 (a little under an acre) and are pretty flat, so there is plenty of space for a pool subject to the necessary permission. There is even a summer kitchen which would make a smashing pool house. The south-facing garden leads down to a pretty little paddock with lovely views over open countryside. There are mature shrubs, ornamental trees and established jasmine arches. Perfect for the keen gardener. Attached to the cottage is a small outbuilding, which was recently re-roofed and could be used as a garage. The original bread oven is renovated and functional and there is a separate useful workshop. The property sits on a very quiet lane with little passing traffic. The hamlet is a no through road and the mature gardens give a sense of peace and privacy without feeling isolated. It's a short walk to the local village which has basic shops, doctor's surgery, bar, restaurant and primary school. The local market is at Prayssac (4kms) and is held weekly on a Friday. A wider selection of shops and supermarkets can be found within just a few minute's drive. The nearest International airport is at Bergerac - a drive of about 90 minutes.
