13 rooms, 548m²,  House for sale in Lavit - 299 000 € *

This Maison de Maître situated in the centre of a small country town is absolutely extraordinary. It is full of original features – fabulous floor tiles, mouldings on the walls, maid’s corridors and bedrooms in the attic, fireplaces and a gorgeous rounded tower – and completely unspoilt. The rooms are vast and the potential is the same. While there are works to be done to bring this up to modern standards of living, you start from an amazing base.
On the ground floor, the front door opens into a small entrance hall. Beyond the doors is a 40m² corridor, running to the tower at the far end. There is a kitchen with a housekeeper’s sitting room, a bureau with mouldings, a massive salon of 52m², a second sitting room/bedroom, a shower room plus the circular tower room with a working fireplace, a WC and a boiler room. There is access directly to the garage which used to be the old stables, and a hidden washbasin to clean up before coming into the main rooms! There is also the back staircase for the servants......
Upstairs there are six bedrooms, all a very decent size. Two have two ‘rooms’ attached that could be made into en-suites and dressing rooms, one has one additional room and the pink bedroom at the front has the maid’s corridor from days gone by. The central hallway is the same size as on the ground floor, and is a room in itself, and the tower room on this floor has access from both sides onto a fabulous tiled balcony that runs the width of the house. There is a shower room and one WC on the landing.
If you needed anymore space, the attic is in good condition plus there is 100m² above the garage which could be renovated or used for storage. In the attic are three small rooms, used as the maids bedrooms and from there, a tiny roof terrace with lovely views over the rooftops of Lavit to the countryside beyond.
The small garden offers space to sit out on one of the terraces, plus there is a large wood store and a gardener’s potting shed. You benefit from being at walking distance to all amenities.
A must-see for those wanting something original and unspoilt. Very well priced.
