4 bedroom property for sale in Balledent

For Sale - Idyllic Lakeside Retreat with Gites - Rancon - Haute Vienne

When the current owners bought this idyllic house overhanging its own lake, with 2 gites and the most amazing setting near Rancon in the Haute Vienne, they bought every nature lover and fishermans dream. That was a long time ago and now it is time to move on to something more practical. I once had the privilege of looking after the place whilst they went to a family occasion; one of the most relaxing weeks I have ever had; you really do become infused with its magical calm.

You immediately assume you are in the middle of nowhere, because all you can hear is the noise of the river that surrounds the houses gites and land (yes you go over a little bridge onto your island retreat) but you are only 4 minutes from a village with some very nice bars and restaurants; only 9 minutes from a supermarket in the town of Chateauponsac and only 15 minutes from Bellac having links to services to Poitiers train station where you have TGV connections to Paris, Bordeaux, London & Brussels.

Not to mention only 15 minutes away from what is for me one of the most vibrant and beautiful lakes in the area at Saint Pardoux; which has a newly built swimming centre; has a multitude of water sports activities and hosts regular fetes.

Getting to the area is easy with flights from many UK airports into Limoges (37 minutes) and trains at Bellac.

The current owners bought the house in 2007; they have made a lifetime of memories in that short time; but it is time to move on.

The house and gites (which are all on a single level) have mains water and electricity and drainage is to septic tanks, which conformed when last inspected. The house has solar panels, which generate some of the electricity, this Is an area someone may be able to improve and so reduce electricity costs. The house does need some updating and the owner has priced accordingly but is still open to sensible offers.

Zu verkaufen - Idyllischer Ruckzugsort am See mit Gites - Rancon - Haute Vienne

Als die jetzigen Besitzer dieses idyllische Haus mit eigenem See, 2 Ferienwohnungen und einer fantastischen Lage in der Nahe von Rancon in der Haute Vienne kauften, erfullten sie sich den Traum eines jeden Naturliebhabers und Anglers. Das ist lange her, und nun ist es an der Zeit, sich etwas Praktischem zuzuwenden. Ich hatte einmal das Privileg, auf das Haus aufzupassen, wahrend sie zu einem Familienfest fuhren; es war eine der entspannendsten Wochen, die ich je erlebt habe; man wird wirklich von seiner magischen Ruhe angesteckt.
