| | Toby Hawkins, Independent Agent, says: | This is a pretty house, completely renovated and retaining the original stone fireplace, beautifully finished exposed stone walls, bulls eye windows and gorgeous beams. The garden is large and completely private, as this is the last house in the hamlet, overlooking the paddock and stables with open fields behind. A rural lane, or bridleway, runs past the house giving safe and rural riding. The field is just across this track, so keeping an eye on the horses is quick and easy. There is an adjoining little stone cottage which needs total renovation.
| The large living room (approx 40m2) has the original stone fireplace at one end, a tiled floor and exposed beams. There are large double glazed windows and French doors to the front. The stone walls have been lovingly restored, still with the bull’s eye window above the old sink. It is an enormous room, plenty of space for a large dining table and a generous sitting area around the fire. It connects to the kitchen, so the cook is not excluded from the party.
The kitchen has fitted units, slate worktop and a double kitchen sink. There is a French door to the garden and a door to the back kitchen which has a sink, plumbing for washing machine and dish washer, the boiler and space for a freezer and other storage.
The study is about 10m2 and overlooks the front garden and has a tiled floor.
Upstairs there are 3 lovely bedrooms and plenty of built in storage space. There are bull’s eye windows as well as large double glazed windows giving plenty of light. The bathroom has a basin and a bath with a shower above it and there is a separate lavatory and basin.
The entire house is in excellent condition and will not require any work, unless you choose to redecorate. Just move in and pamper the horses.
The garden has a large terrace, lawn, orchard with fruit trees and a paddock. The numerous outbuildings include an open-sided barn, another barn, some sheds, 3 small stables a tool shed and a workshop with a fireplace all very convenient for the paddock which adjoins the garden. Just across the lane is a larger field of about half a hectare.
And now for the fun project… The second house has stone walls, beautiful beams and roof. It appears to be in good order and sound, but needs total renovation to become habitable once more. It is about 50m2 and was originally on 2 floors, though there is currently no upper floor.
The hamlet is about 5 minutes from the lively village of Usson, where there are all the basic shops and services including a bank, post office, restaurant, bars, village shops, bakers and many more.
