The farmhouse is realistically described as a good condition property, but with room for enhancements to personalize or expand its features. The inclusion of a fine pigeonnier tower proposes a delightful architectural element, while the upper level of the main house hosts an impressive bedroom with ensuite facilities, plus another large independent bathroom.

Across the quaint lane, a two-story barn offers expansive storage on the ground floor and is currently used as a games room on the upper level. A wood store adjacent to the barn and an extensive hangar nearby provides ample space for parking and outdoor equipment. Additionally, the recent approval for converting the barn into a dwelling opens up possibilities for further development or even a separate guest house.

Residing in Leyme offers a distinct lifestyle steeped in natural beauty and tranquility. The property’s land is adorned with a variety of fruit trees, making it a haven for wildlife and offering a picturesque setting that changes with the seasons. The climate in Midi-Pyrénées typically features warm summers and mild winters, contributing to the enjoyment of outdoor activities and the lush surroundings throughout the year.

Living in a farmhouse in such a bucolic setting invites a pace of life that is both peaceful and enriching. Gardening, taking long walks in the countryside, and simply enjoying the quiet of nature are daily pleasures that residents can cherish. Leyme itself, while small, provides essential services and a friendly community atmosphere. Nearby towns like St. Céré, Lacapelle Marival, and Gramat expand the local offerings with more shops, cultural events, and seasonal markets.

This property is ideally suited for overseas buyers looking to immerse themselves in French country living, whether as a permanent residence or a holiday retreat. With its current condition, charming features, and potential for personal touches or expansion, this farmhouse represents an opportunity to own a slice of the idyllic French countryside, full of potential and promise for the right owner.
