Description

Are you dreaming of a peaceful life in the French countryside? Welcome to this delightful 3-bedroom house in Ecouche-les-Vallees, nestled in the heart of Normandy, Orne. This property offers an opportunity to immerse yourself in the serene, idyllic lifestyle that France is renowned for, while being in a location that is near essential amenities. As a global real estate agent, I am excited to help you explore this opportunity and make it yours.

Driving through the local roads, you will instantly feel the calmness that comes with this part of France. With far-reaching views over lush green landscapes, it's easy to imagine your mornings starting with a cup of coffee as you gaze out across your 2.4 acres of personal land. The property itself is maintained well, boasting a solid build that has been kept in good condition.

Upon entering the property, you are greeted by an inviting entrance hall. Your culinary experiences will be made easy and enjoyable in the fitted and equipped kitchen, where a dining table fits comfortably. The main floor extends into a cozy sitting/dining room complete with a fitted wood burner, ensuring those chilly winter nights are perfectly snug. The ground floor also includes a shower room equipped with a connection for a washing machine, along with a separate WC for convenience.

Heading upstairs reveals a spacious landing that leads to two large bedrooms—suitable for families or guests—and a single bedroom, perhaps ideal for an office or nursery. Although there's one bathroom with a WC on this floor, it's practically laid out for family use.

In addition to the already ample space, there's a convertible loft, just waiting for your personal touch. The potential here is immense for creating something truly unique—an artist studio, a private study, or additional living quarters to host visiting family.

While the interiors of this home are move-in ready, the exterior offers some exciting projects for those looking to make the property their own. The adjoining storage room with a boiler room, a detached barn ideal for storage or use as a workshop, and a former sheepfold open up various possibilities. Whether you're a hobbyist, a gardener, or simply someone who appreciates ample space, the surrounding outbuildings provide vast potential.

The local area is also a treat, only ten minutes away from Argentan and just 5 minutes from Ecouche-les-Vallees. Living here means you are never far from civilization, yet you have the seclusion to feel like you are in your own world. The small town of Ecouche-les-Vallees exudes a quaint charm, embodying the quintessential French lifestyle with its local markets and cafes.

When it comes to climate, Normandy really does offer the best of both worlds. The summers are pleasant and not too scorching, making outdoor activities a joy, while winters are mild, so you don't have to worry about extreme conditions when you are trying to stay warm by the wood burner or enjoying a glass of wine in the comfort of your living room.

For expats and overseas buyers, this property represents a comfortable entry into the laid-back French lifestyle. Enjoy the pace of life here, where taking long walks, visiting local vineyards, or spending a day in one of the nearby towns is the norm.

This house for sale in Bergerac, Dordogne, has four bedrooms, a heated saltwater pool and an 1870 core extended in 1998. It sits in a residential area east of town, so you get the Périgord countryside without giving up the restaurants and markets of Bergerac itself. The plot is small enough to look after from a distance and big enough that the pool feels private. That balance is rarer than it sounds, and it is what makes this a practical home for people who want to be away part of the year. ### The House: 1870 Origins and a 1998 Extension The oldest part of the house dates from 1870 and still looks it, in the best way. There is an antique fireplace, exposed beams and the kind of thick-walled rooms that stay calm on a hot afternoon. The 1998 extension changed the balance of the house. It brought in more daylight, along with insulation, air conditioning and a sanitation system described as compliant, which are the details buyers of older French houses usually want to check first. Inside you have 146 m² of living space and four bedrooms, two of them on the ground floor. That layout helps if you are hosting parents or friends who prefer to avoid stairs. There is one bathroom, which is worth knowing if you plan to fill all four bedrooms at once. The house is in good condition, so the first summer can be spent using it rather than organising builders. The large living room is the centre of the house. The antique fireplace has an insert, so winter evenings are covered, and the room opens straight onto the pool area. ### Heated Saltwater Pool and 770 m² of Garden The pool is heated and uses salt rather than heavy chemical dosing. Step out of the living room and you are at the water's edge, with no long walk across the law ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Fondettes sits on a 1,000 m² garden, a few minutes from Tours and the banks of the Loire. It is a 1970s home in good condition, with three bedrooms and two shower rooms spread over two levels. The address is what makes it work. You get a quiet residential street, shops, schools and public transport close by, and the city of Tours on your doorstep. Few places this near a Loire Valley city come with a garden of this size. ### A 3-Bedroom House in Fondettes, Touraine The main floor has about 86 m² of living space and is air-conditioned. The living room is roughly 25 m² and has an insert fireplace, so evenings in the cooler months are sorted. The kitchen is fitted. There are two bedrooms, a shower room with natural light and a separate WC. The lower level opens onto the garden and adds a lot of flexibility. It holds a third bedroom with its own shower room. Use it for guests, as a home office, or as a self-contained space for a family member or a teenager who wants some independence. There is also an enclosed veranda, designed to accommodate a platform lift. If you are thinking about long-term living, or buying for parents who may need easier access between levels, that detail matters and is hard to add later. ### The Garden, Cellar and Garage The plot is about 1,000 m², a generous size for a house this close to Tours. The garden level gives direct access outside, so the lower bedroom and the lawn work as one space in summer. Below the house you will find a cellar and a garage. The cellar suits wine, tools and seasonal storage, and the garage means you do not have to leave the car on the street. If you plan to use the house as a second home in France, storage like this makes locking up and leav ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Bléré is a 19th-century Touraine farmhouse with a 40 m² cathedral-ceilinged living room and a vaulted cellar. It stands on an enclosed 398 m² plot near the village of La Croix-en-Touraine, in Indre-et-Loire. Small outbuildings share the garden, and every ground-floor living space opens onto a sunny terrace. ### A Touraine Farmhouse for Sale near Bléré Built in the 19th century, the house keeps the proportions you expect from a traditional Touraine farmhouse, and the data lists its condition as good. The plot is fully enclosed. That matters if you travel with a dog or children, or if you simply want to lock up and leave between visits. The small outbuildings in the garden are useful for tools, bikes and firewood. Check their state and permitted use during a viewing. The location is quiet, yet the shops and services of Bléré are close. For anyone looking for a second home in France without the crowds of the coast, that balance is hard to find. ### Inside the House: Layout and Light You come in through an entrance hall with a built-in wardrobe. The kitchen is large, fitted and equipped, and it opens straight onto the terrace. Morning coffee outside means carrying a cup through the door. The main room is the living and dining space, about 40 m² under a cathedral ceiling, with parquet flooring and a wood-burning stove. Above it, a mezzanine adds roughly 20 m² of extra space, enough for a desk or a small library. Also on the ground floor are a bedroom with French doors, a separate office, a bathroom with both a bathtub and a walk-in shower, a WC and a small utility room. The attic floor holds two more bedrooms and a WC off the landing. That makes three bedrooms in all, one of them on the ground fl ... click here to read more

This single-storey house for sale in Gers, at Saint-Aunix-Lengros, stands on 1.8 hectares with solar panels, its own well and a jacuzzi terrace. Everything is on one level, the energy label is A, and the land is big enough for horses, sheep or a serious vegetable garden. It is a practical country house more than a showpiece. The heating, hot water and electricity have all been updated in the last few years, so a buyer can move in and spend the first summer outside rather than on a building site. ### The House: 169 m² on One Level The living room measures 32 m² and has a fireplace with an insert, which is where you will spend most winter evenings. The kitchen is a separate room of the same size, and a door leads straight from it onto the rear terrace. Breakfast outside is easy to arrange. There are four bedrooms, at roughly 15.5 m², 15.5 m², 18.2 m² and 19 m². They are genuinely large, so children, guests or a home office will not feel squeezed. A single bathroom serves the house, which is worth knowing if you plan to host a full family. Some rooms need refreshing with paint and finishes, but the overall condition is good. A closed garage and workshop of 36 m² completes the house. The single-storey layout also makes it easy to live in at any age, with no stairs between kitchen, bedrooms and garden. ### Land, Terrace and Outbuildings The plot totals 17,796 m². Part of it is built up and the majority is agricultural land, which suits keeping animals. Neighbouring fields are also farmland, so nobody looks into the garden. Existing dependencies include a kennel, a carport and a chicken coop. The 54 m² terrace at the back holds a jacuzzi, and it is included in the sale.

This house for sale in Côtes-d'Armor sits near Plémet and comes with four bedrooms, a stone-walled living room and a 1,039 m² enclosed garden. It is a renovated stone house with a new roof, a wood-burning stove and gas central heating. A two-storey garage and a former gîte add room to grow. Inland Brittany is quieter and far cheaper than the coast, and this house shows what that buys you: 123 m² of living space, a big plot and a village with its own lake. ### The House: 123 m² of Stone, Four Bedrooms You come in through an entrance hall that leads straight to the living room. The exposed stone walls are the first thing you notice, and the wood-burning stove is the second. On a wet Breton evening, which you will get, that corner is where everyone ends up. The kitchen/diner is large, big enough for a proper table and for cooking while others sit and talk. A downstairs cloakroom saves a trip upstairs. Gas central heating runs through the house, so it stays comfortable outside the summer months and is easy to leave ticking over if you only visit now and then. There are four bedrooms, which makes the layout easy for a family, for visiting friends, or for a home office alongside the guest rooms. There is one bathroom. If you have a larger group in mind, that is the one thing to weigh up. The house is in good condition, and the renovation included a new roof, usually the biggest single expense on an old stone building. ### Garden, Garage and the Former Gîte The garden is enclosed and covers about 1,039 m². That is enough for a vegetable patch, a lawn for children, and a table outside for long summer lunches. Because it is fenced, young children and dogs can play without constant supervision. The garage is on two floors. ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Corrèze has five bedrooms, a large pool and a fishing lake across the road in the village of Saint-Pardoux-Corbier. It stands on 5,480 m² of grounds and offers 181 m² of living space, three bathrooms and a three-car carport. The condition is good and the kitchen is newly fitted, so the work here is mostly about moving in and unpacking the suitcases. ### A 5-Bedroom House in the Limousin Countryside Start in the kitchen. It is spacious and newly fitted, with a large utility room next to it that keeps laundry and muddy boots out of the main living space. The lounge opens onto a terrace, so doors can stay open on summer evenings and the room spills outside naturally. One bedroom is on the ground floor, with its own en-suite bathroom containing a jacuzzi bath and a separate shower. That suits grandparents, guests, or anyone who would rather not climb stairs at the end of the day. A cloakroom completes the ground floor. Upstairs there are four more bedrooms and a family bathroom, plus a balcony. One of the upstairs rooms is large enough to be converted into a self-contained apartment or guest suite. Certain kitchen units and appliances are available for it, and there is a separate access if you want to go that way. Any conversion is your call, and it is worth checking requirements with the local mairie before planning works. ### Pool, Outdoor Dining and 5,480 m² of Grounds The large swimming pool is the centre of the garden. Beside it is a substantial outdoor dining area that seats eight, which is the sort of detail that decides where lunch happens from May to September. A three-car carport covers the vehicles, which matters in a rural area where nobody arrives by bus. The grounds are spacious an ... click here to read more

This four-bedroom house for sale in Morbihan stands on 3,201 m² of countryside near Lignol, with only one neighbour to the rear. It is a bourgeois-style home of 160 m² in good condition, built with a raised ground floor over a full basement. The price has recently been reduced for a quicker sale. Old stone, wooden parquet and a wood-burning stove sit alongside a modern kitchen, and the layout suits everyday living as well as long holidays. ### The House: Raised Ground Floor and Upstairs Bedrooms You enter through a large hall on the raised ground floor. To the left is the living and dining room, which is the best room in the house. It has original wooden parquet underfoot, an exposed stone wall and a wood-burning stove that will see you through a Breton winter evening. To the right is the fully equipped modern kitchen, a good fit if you like to cook rather than just reheat. Behind the kitchen is a laundry room with its own separate WC. There is also an opening that could easily be turned into a door, giving you indoor access to the garage behind. On a wet day, and Brittany has plenty of those, you will be glad of it. Upstairs, a landing leads to the first bedroom, which has a feature fireplace. Next come the bathroom, with both a bathtub and a shower, and a separate WC. Beyond that is the master bedroom. In total the house has four bedrooms and one bathroom, so if you plan to fill it with family or guests every summer, keep that ratio in mind. ### Basement, Garages and Attics The working side of the house is generous. A full basement runs beneath the living space, with a boiler room alongside it. At the back are two attached garages, enough for a car and a workshop, or two cars and the garden equipment that a plot ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Dordogne stands on 7,500 m² of enclosed wooded grounds, a short walk from the centre of Piégut-Pluviers. It is a 1930s house of about 180 m² with three bedrooms, completely renovated in 2022. Most properties in this part of France make you choose. You get village life with neighbours on both sides, or you get seclusion with a ten-minute drive for bread. Here the shops and services are within walking distance, yet the garden is fenced, planted with trees and private. From the terrace the view runs out over the treetops of the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park. ### The 1930s House, Renovated in 2022 The house dates from the 1930s and offers roughly 180 m² of living space. The renovation in 2022 was complete, and the aim was to bring in modern comforts without losing the proportions and character of the original building. For a buyer, that is the point that matters most. The heavy work has been done, so you can spend your first summer using the house instead of managing a building site. There are three bedrooms and one bathroom, which suits a couple with guests or a small family. If you hope to host more people, the size of the house and plot leaves room to think about how you might use the space, though any alteration would of course need the usual checks. Outside, there is a balcony as well as the terrace. That gives you a choice between morning coffee in the sun and an evening drink looking into the trees. The condition is good, and the character of a 1930s house is still there. It is a different experience from a stone farmhouse, with a more formal shape and generous proportions. ### The 7,500 m² Wooded Grounds A plot of 7,500 m² is large by any standard, and it is rare to find one th ... click here to read more

This five-bedroom house for sale in Saint-Cyprien, Dordogne, sits on almost 5,000 m² of land with open views across the valley. Built in 1995 in the local Périgord style, it offers 174 m² of living space on two floors above a full basement, and the village shops are only a few minutes away. For a family home or a second home in France, that combination of space, land and easy daily errands is hard to find at this size. ### The House and Its 4,903 m² Plot You enter through a hall into a 42 m² living and dining room. An insert fireplace anchors the space, and a heat distribution system carries its warmth through the rest of the house, which counts for a lot during a Dordogne winter. The room opens onto a covered terrace facing the countryside, so breakfast outdoors in May works even if the weather turns. The kitchen measures 19 m², large enough to cook and eat in the same room. Also on the ground floor are a 13 m² bedroom, a family bathroom and a separate WC. That bedroom is handy for guests or relatives who would rather not climb stairs. Upstairs you find four more bedrooms of 12, 12, 14 and 19 m², plus a shower room and a second separate WC. Five bedrooms means two families can share the house without queuing for the one room they all want. The house has double glazing and enhanced insulation, and the condition is good. The full basement gives you storage or workshop space beneath the living areas. Outside, the plot of 4,903 m² is nearly half a hectare. That is plenty of room for privacy and a proper garden, but think about mowing and upkeep if you will be away for part of the year. ### Living in Saint-Cyprien and the Périgord Noir Saint-Cyprien lies on the Dordogne river in the Périgord Noir, between Sarlat-la-Ca ... click here to read more

House for sale in Var near Rougiers: a 3-bedroom semi-detached villa with a 484 m² garden, within walking distance of an 18-hole golf course. Built in 2002 and in good condition, it sits inside a gated residential park with its own pool and tennis courts. The asking price is €289,000, and the furniture is not included, though it can be negotiated separately. ### The Villa: Layout and Condition The house is semi-detached and arranged over two floors, with 92 m² of living space. That figure includes the integrated single garage, so the habitable area is a little smaller than the headline number. Plan around that if you are comparing it with other listings. You enter through a hall with a guest toilet. The living room and fitted kitchen share one open space on the ground floor, and French doors lead from there onto a sunny terrace and the garden. The master bedroom is also downstairs. It has its own French doors to the garden and an en-suite bathroom with a bathtub, washbasin and toilet. Upstairs are two further bedrooms and a second bathroom with a shower. Both floors have tiled flooring, which keeps the house cool when the Provençal summer sets in. Heating is by electric radiators. The villa dates from 2002 and is in good condition, so this is a house to move into rather than a renovation project. ### The Garden and the Gated Park The 484 m² plot is landscaped and wraps around the house. For a semi-detached villa that is generous. There is room for a dining table under the open sky, and the master bedroom opens straight onto the garden. Views run towards the Massif de la Sainte-Baume, the rocky ridge that shapes the skyline here. The villa belongs to a secure, gated park with a shared swimming pool, tennis courts a ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Le Bugue, Dordogne, gives you two separate homes and an independent studio on more than 5,000 m² of land. Instead of one large house, you get a small family compound: a three-bedroom house on the garden side, a second single-storey home with a cathedral-ceilinged living room, and a studio down on the courtyard level. The setting is rural and quiet, yet the shops and services of Le Bugue are close enough that you are not planning your day around the car. Five bedrooms in total, good condition, and room to do more with the land. ### Two Houses and a Studio on One Plot The first house is the one that faces the garden. Downstairs there is a kitchen, a shower room with toilet, a utility room and a living room with a fireplace. That living room opens westward onto the garden, so it is the natural place for afternoon light and a winter fire. Upstairs you find three bedrooms, a wash area and a separate toilet. It suits a family or a group of friends who want their own sleeping space. The second house is arranged on one level. It has a fitted kitchen and a bright living and dining room with a cathedral ceiling and a wood stove. A hallway leads to a shower room and a separate toilet. The bedroom opens onto a covered terrace with views over the garden, which makes it a good spot for morning coffee whatever the weather. On the lower courtyard level sits the independent studio. It gives you a third, fully separate place to stay, whether for older children, visiting guests or a relative who likes their own front door. ### The Land: Over 5,000 m² With Building Potential The plot is a little over 5,000 m², and about two thirds of it is described as buildable. That is the detail that sets this house apart fr ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Amboise has five bedrooms, a 35 m² living room with fireplace and a 741 m² garden, close to schools and the town centre. It is a traditional detached home on a quiet residential street, in good condition, with room for a large family or for guests all summer. At €299,000 with agency fees included, five bedrooms and 187 m² of living space is hard to find this close to the Loire. ### The House: 187 m² and Five Bedrooms You come in through a wide entrance hall with a built-in cupboard and coat storage, which is useful when five people arrive at once with luggage. The main room on the ground floor is the living room, about 35 m². It has a fireplace fitted with an insert, so winter evenings have a focal point, and a glazed door that opens straight onto the terrace. The kitchen is fitted and equipped. A separate laundry room keeps the washing machine out of sight, and there is a WC on this floor as well. Upstairs are five large bedrooms, each with its own built-in wardrobe. That is the real strength of the layout. Nobody has to share, and a spare room can become an office without anyone losing a bed. The first floor also has a bathroom, a separate shower room and a second WC. With one bathroom listed in the data, it is worth checking how the sanitary spaces suit your household when you visit. ### Garden, Terrace and Light The plot measures 741 m² and the garden is partly planted with trees. The house faces south-east and north-west, so the morning sun reaches one side and the evening light the other. The terrace is well exposed, which makes it the natural spot for breakfast in spring and long dinners in June. A garage and a garden shed come with the property.

This house for sale in Hautefort, Dordogne, offers eight bedrooms, a 70 m² reception room and a large barn on 3,890 m² for €259,000. The price has come down from €284,000 and the house is back on the market. It sits in Saint-Agnan, a village within the commune of Hautefort, close to everyday amenities. Few Dordogne properties at this price give you this much room to work with, whether you want a big family home, a second home in France or a guest-house project. ### The House: 309 m² with Eight Bedrooms The house is built in two parts. An older section keeps its original character, and a more recent part has been added alongside it. Together they give 309 m² of living space, eight bedrooms and two bathrooms. The condition is listed as good, so this is not a ruin waiting for a roof. The main reception room measures more than 70 m². That is the room where a large family gathers for a long Sunday lunch, or where guests would sit down together after a day out in the valley. With eight bedrooms and two bathrooms, anyone planning to host regularly will want to think about adding a bathroom. The layout gives you space to do that. ### Barn, Bread Oven and Garden Outside, there is a large barn with an open section, which gives you plenty of options for later development. A bread oven in perfect condition stands on the property, a feature most buyers only see in restoration projects. The agent also reports a well that never runs dry. The garden is planted with trees, and part of it is buildable. The data for this property lists a swimming pool and a waterfront setting, while the agent's text talks about the possibility of creating a pool. Please ask us to confirm both points before you plan a trip. The size and the barn als ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Dordogne, near Mareuil en Périgord, comes with 1.9 hectares of fenced woodland, a 125 m² barn and a second house to renovate. It sits at the end of a quiet hamlet, so the only traffic you are likely to hear is your own. For a family after space, or a buyer who wants a rural base with room to grow a guest-accommodation project, the combination is hard to find at this price level. ### The House: Five Bedrooms and 186 m² The main house has 186 m² of living space and a layout that suits family life. Downstairs there is a large kitchen, a separate dining room and a living room. Upstairs you will find all five bedrooms and the bathroom, which keeps the sleeping floor self-contained. The condition is good, so you can move in and live here before deciding what, if anything, to change. Heating comes from a water-to-water heat pump that draws on a borehole on the plot. That is worth asking about at a viewing, as running costs and servicing history matter for a house this size. With five bedrooms and only one bathroom, some buyers will want to add a second one. The upstairs space should leave room for that, though you would need a local builder to confirm what is practical. ### Barn, Bread Oven and a Second House to Renovate The outbuildings are what set this house for sale in Dordogne apart from the usual village house with a garden. There is a 33 m² garage and an adjoining barn of roughly 125 m². A barn that size can be a workshop, a storage space for a classic car or a boat, or a covered space for family gatherings. Converting it to living space would need planning permission, so check the rules with the mairie before you plan anything. Then there is the bread oven. It measures 12 m², and the owners ... click here to read more

This restored 18th-century coaching inn is a three-bedroom house for sale in Corrèze, in the village of Segonzac, with a stone barn and 5,864 m² of land. Inside, a dining room fireplace and a multi-fuel stove in the living room set the tone for the 155 m² of living space. The restoration used quality natural materials and kept the character of the old building. The outbuildings give you room for projects of your own. ### Inside the Former Coaching Inn The ground floor is organised around the kitchen and dining room. The fitted kitchen opens straight onto the dining room, where a fireplace anchors the space. Think long lunches in autumn with the fire lit and the door to the garden left ajar. Next door, the living room has a multi-fuel fireplace, so winter evenings are covered. There are three bedrooms. The master has its own en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms share a separate shower room with WC, and there is also a second WC with a washbasin. A pantry takes care of storage for the kitchen. The windows are double-glazed aluminium, and fibre-optic internet is already installed. That matters if you plan to work remotely for part of the year. Above, the large attic is described as suitable for conversion. It could become extra bedrooms or a studio, subject to the usual structural checks and planning permission. ### Barn, Bread Oven and Vaulted Cellar on 5,864 m² The land is where this house stands apart from a typical village home. A 127 m² stone barn with a tiled roof stands nearby. It is a solid base for a workshop, covered storage, guest accommodation or a hobby space, depending on what you need and what permissions allow. Former stone pigsties of about 36 m² and a traditional bread oven add to the group of ... click here to read more

This 4-bedroom house for sale in Dordogne stands in Busserolles, minutes from Lake Grolhier, with 240 m² of living space and 7,300 m² of land. It is a stone house with a big fitted kitchen, a 54 m² living room and a quiet wooded plot inside the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park, priced at 336,200 EUR. The rooms are generous, the layout is easy to follow, and the grounds give you real privacy. Here is how it works day to day. ### The House: 240 m² of Stone, Beams and Chestnut Parquet You enter through a large, bright hall. To one side is the main living room, 54 m² with chestnut parquet, exposed beams and a fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove. The stove also feeds the central heating, so on a cold Limousin-border evening it does the work of a boiler as well as being the focal point of the room. On the other side of the hall, a second room with its own wood-burning stove can serve as an office, a library or a small sitting room.

This 4-bedroom house for sale in Charente sits a few minutes from La Rochefoucauld and gives you 210 m² of living space on a 1,128 m² plot.

It also works well as a second home you can lock up and leave. ### Inside the House: Four Bedrooms and a Mezzanine The main living room has large bay windows that open onto a covered terrace and the garden. In the evening you can switch to the lounge, where a fireplace with a wood-burning insert makes the room worth gathering in from autumn through spring.

This house for sale in Corrèze comes with a heated pool, two rented apartments and a 720 m² stable on 2.7 hectares near Pompadour. It is a working property rather than a quiet country cottage: a three-bedroom family house, two apartments already let, big stone outbuildings and room for horses, all on one detached plot in the Limousin countryside. ### A Rural Property with Rental Units Already in Place Most houses in this price range give you a roof and a garden. This one gives you a small estate. Besides the main house there are two separate two-room apartments, both currently rented out, so part of the property is already being used commercially. Anyone thinking about guest accommodation, a gîte-style business or a family compound will find the groundwork laid. The setting is detached, with meadow on every side. Don't expect neighbours looking over the hedge. Expect the sound of the paddock in the morning and a long drive back to the road in the evening. ### The Main House: 122 m² and Three Bedrooms The house itself is in good condition and has 122 m² of living space. Downstairs you come into an entrance hall, then a fitted kitchen and a large living room. There is also a separate office, which is useful now that so many buyers work remotely from their second home. A shower room with WC, a laundry room and a pantry complete the ground floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom with WC. The practical details matter here. Solar panels supply electricity to the property, fibre-optic internet is available, and the septic system is compliant. Those are the three things that most often cause trouble with rural French houses, and here they are already sorted. Outside, a 9 m by 4 m heated swimming pool with a cove ... click here to read more

Step outside on a crisp October morning, coffee in hand, and the only sound you hear is birdsong. No traffic. No neighbors peering over a fence. Just open agricultural land stretching toward the foothills of the Pyrenees, the kind of quiet that feels almost physically restorative after months of city noise. This is what 17,796 square meters of Gascon countryside does to you—and it happens every single day you're here. This four-bedroom single-storey house in the Gers department of southwest France sits back roughly 30 meters from the D14, which connects Maubourguet to Plaisance-du-Gers. That distance, combined with exceptionally solid insulation added just six years ago, means road noise is essentially a non-issue. The house is rated A on both energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions—a January 2026 EPC confirmed it. For a rural property of 164 square meters, that's genuinely rare, and it translates directly into heating bills that won't ruin your winter. The layout is all on one floor, which matters more than people realize until they've lived in it. No stairs to negotiate with luggage, no carrying firewood up from a lower level, no thinking twice about ageing parents or young children running between rooms. Everything flows—living room to kitchen to terrace, bedrooms down the hall, garage off the side. Daily life here has a natural, unhurried rhythm built right into the architecture. The living room runs to 32 square meters and centers on a fireplace fitted with an insert, which throws serious heat on January evenings when the temperature in the Gers drops below zero. The separate kitchen—also 32 square meters, notably generous—opens directly onto the rear terrace, making the transition between cooking and eat ... click here to read more
