Property Description

Set in a small hamlet close to the village of Secondigny is this lovely property that comprises two homes and 2 fishing lakes, all set within 10 acres of beautiful countryside in the rolling valleys of the Gâtine. The current owners run it as rentals for fishing holidays, there is scope to continue with this and further expand the lettings.

-Currently run as a gite (a future owner would need to reapply for the necessary permissions and business registration)
The accommodation sits at either side of a large barn. Both houses have a traditional, rustic feel with exposed beams, tiled flooring throughout and a wood burning stove. The first home has one bedroom with an open living area - kitchen / lounge / dining room, a mezzanine level currently used as an office, toilet and bathroom. It has its own private garden. 
 
The second home, with accommodation all on one level, sits overlooking the smaller fishing lake. There is a large lounge / kitchen (with walk-in larder) /dining area, two bedrooms, large bathroom with walk-in shower and a separate toilet.  There is a large fenced garden and patio area with direct access to the lakes.  

The center of the stone barn is used for storage. A further bay is currently used for a motor home, all, subject to the relevant permission could be converted to add additional accommodation.

The two spring fed fishing lakes (a coarse lake of 0.75 acres and specimen lake of 1.75 acres) are set in mature gardens of 2.1 hectares. The lakes and gardens provide a relaxing environment, even if you do not want to fish. There are an abundance of tranquil places to just sit and relax.
