Here's a bargain live-in renovation project in the heart of the Parc Naturel Regional Perigord Limousin. This lovely (currently) 1-bed village house is ready to move in to, but offers, as they say, enormous potential.

The house is built in stone and is situated close to local shopping. You have a kitchen (13m2, with tiled floor, and beams), a bedroom (10m2, with wooden floor and exposed beams - better do something about all that orange though, or you won't sleep!), a bathroom (6m2) and a separate WC. There's an attached barn with a mezzanine (33m2) which is already partially converted to provide further accommodation, and a cellar.

The fenced garden measures about 350m2 and has been lovingly maintained in an au naturel style (see photo)!

Did you know that the last man-eating wolves were eliminated from the Perigord in 1766? No, we didn't either. Louis XV was so delighted, he rewarded the hunters with exemption, for their children, from military service. Now, where were we? Oh yes, there are 4 airports within easy reach (Angoulême, Limoges, Poitiers and La Rochelle) and the ferry port of St Malo is about 4½ hours by car.
