Lovely mansion with great tourist potential
Stone house with gîte in a park of approximately 2 hectares plus an adjoining field of 1 hectare. The house is near a pretty village close to the river Creuse. It has a bar, post office, butcher, baker/general store, hairdresser, church and infant school. Argenton sur Creuse, 10 minutes by car, has a main line station, three supermarkets, and two large DIY stores. There are doctors, vets, banks, chemists and a secondary school. There is also a market on Saturday mornings. Chateauxroux 36kms has a general hospital, all the usual large stores and supermarkets.
[center]All the work on the property has been undertaken by fully registered French artisans and thus benefits from the usual guarantees. The house would make an ideal large permanent family or holiday home. It could also be used as a gite and bed and breakfast business. The gite could easily command approx. £350 per week for the months June-Sept.[/center]
