Description

There's a particular kind of quiet you only find in this corner of France. Standing on the private terrace on a Sunday morning, coffee in hand, you hear nothing but birdsong and the faint rustle of leaves from the garden's edge. No traffic. No sirens. Just the deep, unhurried exhale of rural Limousin. That's what this two-bedroom house in Rochechouart offers — and once you've felt it, you'll understand why people come here and never quite want to leave.

Rochechouart sits in the Haute-Vienne department, about as authentically French as a town can get without being on a tourist poster. It's built on the rim of a 200-million-year-old meteorite impact crater — yes, an actual crater — and the local Musée de la Préhistoire documents this remarkable geological history in ways that'll have even skeptical visitors lingering longer than planned. The medieval château dominates the hilltop, and on market days the square below it fills with vendors selling Limousin beef, local walnuts, and cheeses that have no business being as good as they are. This isn't the manicured, postcard-perfect Dordogne that gets all the magazine coverage. It's better. It's real.

The house itself is a compact, single-story bungalow — 56 square metres of well-proportioned living that gets the essentials exactly right. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, and four rooms total, arranged in a way that feels practical rather than cramped. The kitchen-diner is the heart of the home: a proper gathering space with a fireplace where the whole point is to sit around it on October evenings with a bottle of local wine and absolutely nowhere to be. The living room opens to views across the private garden, and the terrace catches the afternoon light in a way that makes you rethink your entire relationship with productivity.

The traditional shuttered facade is the kind of exterior that estate agents in England would describe breathlessly and charge twice the price for. Here, it's simply how houses are built. That's the Limousin way — quality as a matter of course, not a selling point.

What makes this property genuinely unusual is the separate woodland plot included with the purchase, located a few kilometres from the house. It's a steady, self-replenishing source of firewood for the cooler months — and those months do get cool. Limousin sits inland at a decent elevation, so summers are warm and pleasant without the scorching heat of Provence, while autumn arrives properly, with colour and crispness. Winters are cold enough to justify a fire but manageable. Spring in this part of France, when the meadows fill out and the rivers run clear, is worth the trip alone.

Outdoor life here revolves around water. The Haute-Vienne is dotted with étangs and lakes — Lac de Saint-Pardoux is about 20 minutes north, a 330-hectare reservoir with swimming areas, kayak rental, and lakeside cycling tracks. The Vienne river and its tributaries offer fishing that serious anglers make long journeys for, particularly for pike and perch. Hiking trails cross through the regional Parc Naturel Régional Périgord-Limousin, which brushes the edges of this area and offers marked routes through oak and chestnut forest that feel genuinely wild without being demanding.

The nearest significant town is Limoges, about 45 minutes east — the city famous worldwide for its porcelain, but also home to a solid food scene, a fine arts museum, and the remarkable Saint-Étienne Cathedral, whose Gothic nave took 300 years to build and looks it in the best possible way. The covered market at Les Halles in Limoges is worth a dedicated morning: local charcuterie, Limousin lamb, seasonal mushrooms, and the kind of vegetable variety that makes you realise supermarkets are a form of theft.

For international buyers, the logistics work well. Limoges Bellegarde Airport is roughly 40 minutes by car and receives regular flights from the UK and other European cities via Ryanair and other carriers — making this one of the more accessible rural French properties you'll find at this price point. The TGV also connects Limoges to Paris in around three hours, which opens up a different kind of weekend entirely.

At 99,000 euros, this is a property that makes sense on paper and makes even more sense once you've stood on that terrace. For a vacation home in rural France, the entry cost is low, the running costs are minimal, and the lifestyle return is substantial. The compact footprint means heating bills stay manageable, and the overall maintenance burden is light — genuinely achievable for an international owner who visits seasonally rather than year-round. The inclusion of the woodland plot adds both practical value and a certain romantic logic: you buy the house, you get the forest, you never run short of firewood again.

France's property ownership framework is well-established for international buyers, with clear processes for non-resident purchases through a notaire. Capital gains tax rules favour long-term holds, and Limousin remains one of the genuinely undervalued rural markets in the country — property prices here have held steady while demand for accessible, low-maintenance holiday homes in southwest France has quietly grown.

Key features at a glance:

- 2-bedroom stone bungalow, 56m2, in good condition
- Private garden with sun terrace and open countryside views
- Fireplace in kitchen-diner, ideal for cooler seasons
- Separate woodland plot included — natural firewood supply
- Single-storey layout, low maintenance for absentee owners
- Limoges Airport approximately 40 minutes by car
- Lac de Saint-Pardoux — swimming and water sports — 20 minutes north
- Regional hiking and cycling trails through Périgord-Limousin park nearby
- Traditional shuttered facade, authentic rural French architecture
- Strong year-round climate: warm summers, proper autumns, cold winters
- Weekly market at Rochechouart — local produce, cheese, charcuterie
- Rochechouart Château and meteorite crater museum within the town
- Excellent value entry point for a holiday home in rural southwest France
- Clear legal purchase process via French notaire for international buyers
- Genuine low-cost ownership structure, no complex management required

This is the kind of property that rewards the buyer who doesn't need everything — who wants something real, quiet, and genuinely their own in a part of France that hasn't been discovered yet by the crowds.

Picture yourself on a Sunday morning in late September, mug of coffee in hand, standing at the edge of 6,000 square metres of your own woodland in the Landes. No road noise. No neighbours. Just the creak of old oak, the faint whistle of a bird you can't quite name, and a natural spring quietly doing its thing in the corner of the plot. That's what life at this 18th-century Landaise farmhouse actually feels like — and at €119,000, it's not a fantasy. It's available right now. Built in the architectural tradition of the Landes region, this single-storey stone farmhouse carries the kind of bones that renovation enthusiasts dream about. The 76-square-metre interior includes two bedrooms, a living room anchored by a period fireplace that's clearly seen a few hundred winters, a bathroom, and a kitchen space ready to be fitted to your own specification. Attached to the main house is a 37-square-metre barn — sound structure, full of potential — that could become a guest studio, a workshop, a covered outdoor dining space, or simply extra storage for bikes and canoes. The decisions are yours. That's rather the point. The property needs work. There's no dressing that up. Renovation quotes are available on request, and buyers with a clear-eyed view of what's involved will find this an unusually honest opportunity. What you're really purchasing is a historic Landes farmhouse at a fraction of what restored examples in this corridor fetch, a plot of wooded land with a genuine natural spring, and a location three minutes from Saint-Geours-d'Auribat — a village with a grocery store, a bakery, a preschool, and a bus stop. The fundamentals are already there. Poyanne sits in the southern Landes, in the vast Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, and ... click here to read more

Saturday morning. The barn swallows are already busy above the terrace, and through the kitchen window you catch the faint smell of bread baking from the boulangerie down in the valley. You've got coffee on, the garden is drenched in that particular pale gold that only central France does in summer, and you're not in any kind of hurry. That's the daily rhythm this cottage in La Châtre-Langlin drops you into — and once you've felt it, it's very hard to give up. This is a solid, well-kept three-bedroom house that sits on just over half an acre of land in the gentle hill country of the Creuse-Indre border zone, a part of France that still operates on its own quiet frequency. The habitable space runs to 87 square metres across two floors — compact enough to be manageable as a second home, but genuinely liveable for a family. On the ground floor, a 22-square-metre kitchen and a 21-square-metre living room give you real space to move around in, not the cramped layouts that plague so many rural French renovations. There's also a shower room, a storage room, and a 14-square-metre cellar — ideal for wine, naturally. Head upstairs and the landing opens onto three bedrooms of 10, 11, and 10 square metres respectively, plus a bathroom. Nothing is pokey. The proportions make sense. The outside space is the real conversation-starter. 2,354 square metres of land wraps around the property, and to the rear sits a generously divided barn — two separate sections, full of potential. Whether you want to park cars and store garden equipment or eventually convert the space into a studio, games room, or guest accommodation, the footprint is already there. The sunny terrace directly behind the house is south-facing enough to earn its keep from ... click here to read more

Sunday morning in Châteauneuf-du-Faou sounds like this: the church bell on Place de l'Église counts nine slow strokes, a boulanger two streets over pulls fresh kouign-amann from the oven, and the smell drifts right through your open kitchen window. This is not a fantasy. This is an ordinary Sunday at this five-bedroom village property on the banks of the Aulne river, tucked into one of inland Brittany's most quietly remarkable villages. What's on offer here is genuinely unusual — two fully adjoining houses that share a wall and connect internally, sitting side by side in the very centre of the village with everything you'd need within a short walk. Together they deliver five bedrooms, two kitchens, two entrance halls, and flexible living spaces that very few properties at this price point can match. At €123,500, you're not buying a compromise. You're buying optionality. The first house sets the tone. Step through the entrance hall and you're in a living and dining room with a fireplace — the kind of room that earns its keep in October when Finistère mists roll in off the Montagnes Noires. From here, the layout flows into a kitchen with a shower area, and a connected sitting room that links directly through to the second house. Upstairs, two bedrooms sit under the slate roof, quiet and cool even in July. The second house mirrors this logic in its own way: a ground floor with its own entrance, kitchen, shower room, toilet, and a bedroom, then two more bedrooms above. There's also an attic space — unconverted, which means it's yours to shape. A home office, a studio, a guest suite with dormer windows looking out over the village rooftops. The bones are right there. Outside, a landscaped enclosed garden gives you somewher ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Tuesday morning in July, and the only sound you can hear from the kitchen window is a woodpigeon calling somewhere beyond the garden's old stone wall. The coffee is on, the air smells faintly of cut grass and warm limestone, and by ten o'clock you could be sitting under the covered barn with a glass of Pineau des Charentes, watching swallows loop over your one-acre plot. This is life in Juignac — unhurried, deeply rural, and more alive than you'd expect from a village this quiet. Juignac sits in the soft green heart of the Charente, one of those parts of southwest France that most visitors drive through on the way to somewhere else. That's precisely the point. About five kilometres from the market town of Montmoreau-Saint-Cybard, you're close enough to pick up fresh bread from the boulangerie on the Grand-Rue and have a long lunch at one of the restaurants along the main square, but far enough from any tourist circuit that life moves at a pace you set yourself. The Charente itself — the river, not just the département — winds through this landscape, and the whole region has this quality of gentle abundance: sunflowers in August, walnuts in October, fog rolling low over the fields in November before the winter sun burns it off by midday. This house has had a serious second life. Since 2020, it's gone through a thorough, considered renovation — not a cosmetic refresh, but a genuine transformation. The approach was smart: instead of stripping out every trace of its rural Charentais character, the renovation leaned into it. Exposed stone sits alongside a fully equipped contemporary kitchen. The result is a home that feels like it has always belonged here, but functions with the efficiency of something ... click here to read more

Saturday morning, and the only sounds reaching the terrace are birdsong, the distant clang of the Saint-Saud-Lacoussière church bell, and the faint creak of oak branches in the breeze. Your coffee goes cold because you keep forgetting to drink it. That's what this corner of the Dordogne does to you. This three-bedroom house sits on just over an acre of land outside one of the Périgord Vert's quieter, more genuine villages — not a tourist honeypot, but a real French community with a weekly market, a pharmacy, a couple of decent cafés, and the kind of neighbours who still wave from across the lane. The property spans 125 square metres of living space, is in good condition, and has the bones — plus a 60-square-metre open barn and an attached garage — to become something genuinely personal with a modest refresh. Walk through the front door and you're straight into the heart of the house: a 45-square-metre living room with terracotta tiles underfoot, a proper fireplace fitted with a wood burner, and double doors that push open onto the terrace and garden beyond. It's the kind of room that earns its keep in every season. In July, those doors stay open from breakfast to midnight. In January, the wood burner makes the room impossible to leave. The fitted kitchen connects naturally to this central space, and the whole ground floor flows well — two double bedrooms with warm wooden floors, a family bathroom, and a WC all sit within easy reach. Upstairs, a mezzanine study area opens off the landing — exactly the right perch for working remotely with a view over the garden, or for teenagers who need their own corner of the world. The third bedroom completes the upper floor, giving the house genuine flexibility for families, couple ... click here to read more

Stand in the kitchen doorway on a September morning and the air already smells like pine resin warming in the sun. The woods on your 6000 square metres start just beyond the old stone wall, and apart from a woodpigeon somewhere up in the canopy, nothing breaks the silence. This is Poyanne — a scattering of farmhouses and lanes in the Landes département where the Atlantic forest rolls on so far it starts to feel like its own country. And sitting at the edge of it all, waiting for someone with vision and a willingness to roll up their sleeves, is a proper 18th-century Landaise farmhouse going for €119,000. Let's be honest about what this is. It's a renovation project — the kind that demands decisions, budgets, and patience. But it's also the kind of opportunity that comes along rarely in this part of France, where agricultural heritage properties on wooded plots of this size don't stay on the market long. The single-story layout covers 76 sqm: two bedrooms, a living room anchored by a period fireplace that's the real architectural heart of the house, a bathroom, and a kitchen space ready to be fitted out exactly how you want it. The bones are there. What you're buying is the framework for something genuinely personal — not a developer's idea of a holiday home, but yours. Attached to the main house is a 37 sqm barn. That's not an afterthought. Converted thoughtfully, it could become a guest suite, a studio, a home office, or simply generous storage for bikes and surf gear. Renovation quotes are available on request, so you won't be working blind from day one. The land itself deserves its own mention. Six thousand square metres of wooded terrain with no overlooking neighbours in any direction, and — this is the detail tha ... click here to read more

Step off the D roads of the Orne on a Tuesday morning and you'll hear it before you see it—the low rumble of market stalls being set up in Argentan's Place du Marché, vendors calling out prices for unpasteurized Camembert, strings of dried saucisson swinging in the autumn breeze. This is the Normandy that doesn't end up on postcards, and that's precisely why it's worth paying attention to. This 192 m² farmhouse on 5.5 hectares of land sits at the edge of a countryside that moves at its own unhurried pace, a place where a Saturday morning can disappear into a long walk across open meadow and a lunch that stretches into late afternoon. The property itself—main house plus a collection of outbuildings spread across the grounds—is honest in what it offers. The principal dwelling runs to approximately 92 m² and holds five rooms: two bedrooms, a living area, an office, and enough space to start sketching out what your version of a Norman farmhouse looks like. The bones are good. The walls are thick limestone, the kind that keeps rooms cool in July and holds a woodfire's warmth well into a February evening. Renovation work is needed, and that's actually the interesting part. You're not inheriting someone else's taste. You're starting with a structure that has real character—exposed timber, original proportions—and you get to decide what comes next. The outbuildings are where the possibilities multiply. Depending on your vision and local planning permissions, the range of what's workable here is wide. Convert the largest barn into a gîte and you've created a secondary income stream that practically runs itself through the summer high season, when Normandy draws history travelers tracing the D-Day sites at Utah, Omaha, and Sword ... click here to read more

Sunday morning in Verteillac starts slowly. The boulangerie on the main square opens early, the smell of baking bread drifting down the stone street before most shutters have rolled up. From the back garden of this four-bedroom village house, you can hear the church bell count out the hour while a wood pigeon settles somewhere in the old walnut tree next door. That's not a postcard image — that's Tuesday, that's October, that's what this kind of life actually feels like. Verteillac sits in the northern Dordogne, tucked between Périgueux and Angoulême in a stretch of Aquitaine that most visitors never find. That's precisely the point. This is deep rural France — sunflower fields in July, truffle markets in winter, walnut orchards turning gold in October. The Dronne Valley is a short drive east. The medieval bastide town of Brantôme, sometimes called the Venice of the Périgord for its abbey and canals, is around 30 minutes away, and on a warm evening its riverside restaurants fill with locals eating duck confit and magret de canard at unhurried pace. Bergerac Airport is roughly an hour south, with Limoges another option to the northeast. Bordeaux, with all its TGV connections and international flights, sits about 90 minutes away by car. The house itself sits right in the village, with stone walls, a traditional roofline, and the kind of layout that's been thoughtfully adapted for modern living without losing its character. The ground floor flows between an open-plan kitchen and dining room — fitted with a wood-burning stove that earns its keep from November through March — into a generous sitting room, which also has a stove and opens directly onto the private walled garden. On a cool spring afternoon, you leave the door ... click here to read more

Sunday morning in La Force sounds like this: a distant church bell from the village, the soft creak of wooden shutters catching the Périgord breeze, and the faint smell of coffee drifting through an open kitchen window while the garden sits gold and quiet in the early light. This is not a fantasy. This is what ownership here actually feels like. Sitting on a generous 1,500 square metre plot in the heart of the Dordogne, this three-bedroom property is one of the more genuinely versatile finds to come onto the market in this part of Aquitaine in some time. At €189,000, it's not just a second home in France — it's a property complex that gives you options most buyers only wish for. The setup is clever. Two separate residential units share the land, each with its own character and function. The first is compact, polished, and ready to use from day one — two levels with a ground-floor living room and kitchenette, and a proper bedroom with an en-suite shower room upstairs. You could step off a flight from London or Amsterdam, drive the hour south from Bordeaux-Mérignac airport, arrive at dusk, and be entirely comfortable by nightfall. No renovation stress, no waiting. This unit works immediately. The second unit is where the real potential lives. A single-storey home with a warm living room, a large separate kitchen, and two spacious bedrooms. The bones are good — solid, honest construction typical of the Dordogne countryside — and the spaces are generous enough to personalise without feeling like you're fighting the layout. Think of it as a canvas that already has the right proportions. Knock through to expand a room, update the kitchen with the local stone you'll find at every Bergerac brico, repaint in something that ref ... click here to read more

On a quiet Sunday morning in Saint-Thois, the only thing you hear is the wind moving through the oak trees at the edge of the garden and the occasional crow somewhere over the fields. The kitchen smells of coffee and yesterday's crêpes. Through the window, nearly 4,800 square metres of land stretch out in front of you — yours, all of it — and the sky above Finistère is doing that particular grey-blue thing it does when the Atlantic is close enough to feel. This is inland Brittany at its most honest. Saint-Thois sits in the Arrée hills, one of the most quietly compelling parts of France that most people fly over on their way to somewhere louder. That's precisely the point. The Monts d'Arrée, Brittany's ancient low mountain range, rise just to the north. The Parc Naturel Régional d'Armorique — over 172,000 hectares of moorland, forest, and river valley — is essentially your backyard. You don't have to drive far to find the Yeun Elez boglands or the rocky summit of Roc'h Ruz, where on a clear afternoon you can see clear to the coast. The house itself is a genuinely interesting mix: old Breton stone walls on the ground floor married to more contemporary construction above, giving the interior a warmth and texture that new builds simply can't replicate. Step inside and the entrance opens naturally into a generous living space where a fitted kitchen runs alongside a sitting room centred on a wood insert fireplace. On grey November evenings — and there will be grey November evenings, this is Brittany — that fireplace earns its place completely. There's also a large room on the ground floor currently used as a games room, which could just as easily become a studio, a home office, a proper dining room, or a ground-floor bedroom ... click here to read more

Sunday morning in the Vienne countryside has a specific quality to it. The air smells of cut grass and woodsmoke, the church bell in the village of Blanzay carries clear across the fields, and your kitchen — with its log burner crackling and coffee on the stove — is warm in a way that proper stone walls make it. That's what owning this barn conversion actually feels like. Not a brochure fantasy. The real thing. This is a proper barn conversion sitting in a quiet hamlet just outside Blanzay, a five-minute drive from the market town of Civray and its Friday morning market stalls selling Charentais melons, local goat's cheese, and honey from the Vienne valley. The building has been thoughtfully transformed from agricultural outbuilding into a genuinely liveable home — 130 square metres of interior space spread across a layout that manages to feel both open and intimate at once. Walk into the kitchen-dining room first, because that's where the life of this house happens. There's a log burner, solid fitted units, and enough room that eight people can eat together without anyone feeling squeezed. Behind it, a dedicated utility room houses the central heating boiler and the solar hot water system — practical infrastructure that keeps running costs down and, for a second home in rural France, matters more than most buyers initially realise. A pantry and a separate WC complete the ground floor's working zone. Then comes the double-height living room, and this is the room that stops people mid-stride. The ceiling goes straight up, exposing the original barn volume, with a mezzanine gallery spanning part of it. A chimney anchors one wall. Light from high windows falls at angles that shift through the day. Next to this space sits ... click here to read more

On a still morning in Lizant, the only sounds are wood pigeons in the oak trees and the distant rumble of a tractor working the next field over. The kitchen window faces south, and by nine o'clock the sunlight has already moved across the stone floor and landed on the table where coffee goes cold because you keep getting up to look outside. That's the pace of life this former farmhouse sets — and once you've felt it, it's hard to go back. Lizant sits in the Vienne department of Poitou-Charentes, a part of rural France that doesn't chase attention. It earns it quietly. The village is tucked into a gentle landscape of sunflower fields, walnut orchards, and hedgerow-lined lanes that were made for cycling and slow afternoon drives. The nearest market town is Civray, roughly 10 kilometres east, where the Saturday morning market on the Place du Marché fills up with local producers selling Chabichou du Poitou cheese, fresh walnuts, and smoked duck from the Charente valley. You'll recognise the same faces every week. That's the kind of place this is. The farmhouse itself covers 270 square metres across two floors and has been well maintained — this is not a project requiring months of work before you can sleep in it. You can arrive on a Friday, unload the car, open the shutters, and be entirely comfortable by Friday night. The fitted kitchen flows into a utility room that handles the practical side of country living without cluttering up the main spaces. The living room is large and genuinely bright, thanks to the south-facing aspect that pulls light deep into the interior through most of the day. A fireplace with an insert sits at the heart of the room — in November, when the Vienne countryside goes amber and the mornings tur ... click here to read more

On a quiet morning in Montmoreau, you open the kitchen window and catch the smell of bread baking from the boulangerie two streets over. The old lime tree in the garden is already throwing long shadows across the grass. Church bells tick off the hour somewhere behind the rooftops. This is what a second home in the Charente actually feels like — not a postcard, but a life you can walk right into. This four-bedroom house sits on a 2,500 m² fenced plot just a few minutes' walk from the center of Montmoreau, a genuine working village where the shops are open, the school is busy, and the weekly market still matters. At €191,500, it's one of those rare finds in southwest France where the price doesn't force you into a compromise. The house is in good condition, connected to the public sewage system, and ready to move into or rent out from day one — no major works, no guesswork. Inside, the layout is generous without feeling excessive. Three bedrooms serve the everyday sleeping arrangement, but the fourth room — a spacious music room running along one side of the ground floor — is the kind of flexible space that a vacation home really benefits from. Use it as a fourth bedroom when the family multiplies for August. Set it up as a proper studio. Keep it as a reading room with nothing but books and afternoon light. It's large enough to be genuinely useful rather than decoratively mentioned in the listing. Two bathrooms handle the practicalities well. The house has a garage and a separate workshop — the workshop alone will matter enormously to anyone who wants a serious hobby space or needs somewhere dry to store garden gear, bikes, and the kayaks that will inevitably accumulate once you discover the Dronne river valley.

Step out onto the front terrace with a coffee in hand on a Tuesday morning in September, and the Vézère Valley spreads out below you in that particular golden light the Dordogne does better than almost anywhere else in France. The walnut trees are starting to drop. Someone two streets down is baking. The cliffs behind you still hold the night's cool air. This is what 115,000 euros buys you here — not just a stone cottage, but a specific, irreplaceable foothold in one of the most historically layered corners of rural France. Les Eyzies-de-Tayac-Sireuil sits at the confluence of the Vézère and Beune rivers, and it carries that geographical confidence like a village that knows exactly what it is. This is the self-styled capital of prehistory, and the claim is not idle boasting — the Cro-Magnon rock shelter is literally at the edge of town, and the Musée National de Préhistoire, rebuilt into the limestone cliff face above the main street, draws serious visitors from across Europe year-round. Walk to the Font-de-Gaume cave with its original polychrome bison paintings (one of the last sites in the world where you can still stand in front of authentic Paleolithic art), and you'll understand why UNESCO gave this entire valley World Heritage status. Living here, even part-time, means all of that is just a twenty-minute stroll. The cottage itself is perched on the hillside with the kind of elevated position that means you catch the morning light early and the evening breeze reliably. Stone walls that have stood for well over a century have been carefully renovated — not stripped and sanitised, but worked with. The character is intact: the rough-cut limestone exterior, the proportions that belong entirely to this part of the Péri ... click here to read more

Picture a Tuesday morning in late June: you're at the twice-weekly market in Montguyon, five minutes down the road, picking up a wedge of goat's cheese from the local fromagère and a bunch of sunflowers that cost less than a coffee back home. You drive back through a hamlet so quiet the loudest thing you'll hear is a woodpigeon in the oak at the back of the garden. That's Saint-Martin-d'Ary. And that's what owning this place actually feels like. Set between Montguyon and Neuvicq in the southern stretch of Charente-Maritime, this three-bedroom detached house sits on a generous 3,000 square metres of mature land in a small, unhurried hamlet. It's the kind of spot that takes a minute to find on the map but stays with you long after you leave. At 102m², the house is compact enough to manage easily as a second home, yet laid out with enough rooms that a family or a group of friends won't be tripping over each other.
