About this place
Located in a peaceful hamlet at the end of a quiet no-through lane, this delightful four-bedroom country home offers a harmonious mix of comfort and potential. The property features open-plan living with an inviting kitchen, dining, and living area centred around a traditional Godin wood-burning stove, creating a cosy atmosphere for family gatherings. A separate dining room opens onto a rear terrace, perfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining.
Upstairs, four comfortable bedrooms are spread across two landings, complemented by well-appointed bathrooms. One of the highlights of this property is the former forge, a generous space with enormous potential to be transformed into a living area, studio or workshop. The exterior is equally appealing, with traditional barns and a cottage that awaits renovation, presenting an opportunity for guests or additional family space.
The outdoor space includes a private gravelled terrace for al fresco dining, alongside beautifully designed gardens featuring lawns, mature plants, and vegetable areas, plus an above-ground swimming pool for those warm summer days. This is a truly idyllic retreat for those seeking a blend of country living with the convenience of nearby towns.

Buying property in France
France places no restrictions on foreign property ownership. The notaire (a public official, not a lawyer for either side) handles the conveyance and is paid by the buyer. A French bank account is strongly recommended for completion funds and ongoing charges.
No residency requirement to buy.
Non-resident mortgages available from French banks, typically 70–80% LTV with stricter affordability checks.
France abolished taxe d'habitation on primary residences (2023) but it still applies to second homes — and many communes now apply a surcharge of up to 60% on second homes in high-demand zones.
General guidance only — confirm specifics with a qualified local lawyer or tax adviser. Reference
