I just love these houses that are in a great location to be used as a holiday home in France and all they need is someone who is good at DIY, they don't need hoards of builders to improve them just a bit of good old-fashioned elbow grease.
How about this one CXZ00552 recently on the market for only 39,990 euros FAI.
This charming detached property offers great potential. The house, with 2 rooms and a garden is ideal for a holiday home, with a relatively modern bathroom and wc, and benefits from some great character features such as original inglenook fireplace in the kitchen. With a private garden, a courtyard and a barn on 2 levels, it will make a lovely full time home for a small family or couple; or indeed a great holiday home once renovated.
A very desirable property at a fantastic price.
The department of Haute-Vienne is in the region of Limousin and boasts a varied landscape of forests, countryside and lakes that attract many tourists each year looking for a range of activities including walking, fishing, sailing, boating and skiing.
In addition, the department has a strong historical and cultural heritage and the landscape is dotted with Roman churches, abbeys and fortified castles. Beautiful man-made beaches are easily accessible and are an good alternative for a great day out. In particular, the Lake of Vassiviere, created in 1950, is extremely popular with visitors.
It is sometimes known as the Land of a Thousand Lakes, the Limousin and its Haute-Vienne department offer beautiful and preserved landscapes. Waterfalls sparkling in the middle of rocks and trees, myriads of flowers and impressive dense forests are the kind of treasures that can be discovered in the department.
Transport links are good too, the easy and cheap access from the United Kingdom with companies as Ryanair or from French cities made that Limoges and the Haute-Vienne became an attractive destination. There is also a project of enlargement for Limoges' airport.
