The living room, featuring a charming fireplace, opens to a well-equipped kitchen that was completely renovated in 2014. The property also offers six bedrooms and two bathrooms, accommodating family and guests comfortably. Noteworthy additions include a large vaulted cellar and multiple outbuildings, enhancing the property's appeal.
The enclosed grounds of 800 m² include a courtyard, a landscaped garden, and a 7 × 3.5 m swimming pool, perfect for outdoor relaxation. Moreover, a two-story barn of 50 m² presents exciting conversion potential for various uses. The property benefits from significant upgrades, including modernised kitchen and bathroom facilities, an attic conversion that adds three extra bedrooms, and improved electrical and sewage systems. Parking space is ample, accommodating three to four vehicles.

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
