This cute little semi-detached cottage sits at right angles with its own detached barn, and comes with full planning permission for extension and conversion into a 2 bed house making approximately 100m² of living space. It sits in a small hamlet only a few minutes from the small town of Chaillac – a lively little place with bars and restaurants as well as a selection of small shops including a mini supermarket.
The property consists of the cottage (attached on one side to an identical cottage – up-kept but not currently lived in) and the small barn set in a large garden. The cottage is one room on the ground floor (27m²) with the original stone fireplace and then an attic above. The barn is 24m² on the floor and will give enough height for 2 floors. Outside the land, mostly to what is currently the rear of the property, is around 450m². The approved plans are for an extension to be added which would join the 2 buildings, thus making a new entrance hall and changing the orientation of the property round so that you enter from the lane that runs to the rear. Also in this new part would be a large bathroom and a utility room. The cottage building is planned to be the kitchen diner and the barn the living room. From the entrance hall stairs would then go up to a large landing leading to 2 bedrooms, one over the cottage and the other over the barn.
The current owners have started some of the work and the property has been cleared, a new ‘fosse septique’ installed, a driveway laid for the new entrance and a hedge planted around the garden. The foundations have been laid for the joining building, and the concrete floor laid for in here and for the terrace, with a retaining wall. NOTAIRES FEES: 3,750 EUROS
