It feels like stepping back in time. Discreetly tucked away, the property surprises with a meadow at the back and several outbuildings: a hangar (originally a tobacco barn), a two-level barn, a shed for firewood and bicycles, and a garage conveniently located next to the house. Forty walnut trees line the meadow, and the nuts are usually pressed for oil at the Moulin de la Vessière in Neuvic. The organic meadow offers space for a horse or other animals, or to grow food.

The stream gently winds around the property and was once used to transport goods by boats between two mills. Theres a well with water in the garden and a natural spring.

This 19th-century farmhouse was built using quality materials and traditional methods. Downstairs, the kitchen door is double-glazed, and the original wooden windows are complemented with traditional wooden shutters. The kitchen and boiler room have original terracotta tiles; the other rooms have pine flooring. The living room features a fireplace with an insert and an automatic ventilation system, exposed beams, views of the stream, a separate WC, a bathroom, and a spiral oak staircase.

The attic has been converted into living space. Both bedrooms have Velux windows and views of the stream. The chestnut parquet flooring and exposed beams reflect the quality of the craftsmanship. The house benefits from mains drainage, town gas, radiators, and high-speed internet. A fenced garden wraps around the house.

The property is set on a quiet walking and cycling path, not far from a stop for the free bus service. Theres easy access to a public primary school, collège and lycée, as well as tennis, football, and rowing clubs along the Dordogne River.
