All windows are equipped with electronic shutters for maximum security and energy savings (particularly useful for summer afternoons!). The east side of the house shares a wall with the approximately 185 m² (2,000 sq ft) mostly unfinished stone barn, consisting of a central high-ceiling work area and one-vehicle garage and two-level work and storage areas, as well as a full-sized workshop/tool shed at the rear. The property also includes a historic stone outbuilding (prepared for conversion to office or guest quarters) as well as two fields with donkey paddocks/shelters, three small formal gardens, and a greenhouse/conservatory. Most of the two acres are open and grassy with mature walnut, lime, and evergreen trees. The house also has a fenced and gated front area to allow pets to roam in a protected environment. The utilities of the house include solar panels (introduced in 2024), oil central heating, wood stove in the living room (which will heat the whole house sufficiently for most evenings), propane hob/cooker, water service provided by the village, and septic tank maintained by the owner. Recent improvements have been made to high-speed IT lines throughout the region. The neighborhood is a mix of full-time residences and holiday homes, and many houses have undergone renovations and improvements in recent years. There is virtually no traffic, except for tractors and other farm equipment. All amenities are available within a 20-minute drive, including grocery chains in Bourganeuf (west), Ahun (northeast), and Aubusson (east), and about 30 minutes to everything in the prefecture center of Guéret (north). The village of St Georges La Pouge has a small grocery store, pharmacy, and post office. St Georges La Pouge also has a medical house for immediate health needs, and Limoges serves as a hospital and medical service center for central Limousin. There are also hospitals and emergency clinics in Guéret and Aubusson. Air service is available in Limoges (less than 90 minutes; direct air service to Stansted/London) or Clermont-Ferrand (about two hours; Air France to Paris, etc.), as well as a new UK link from Poitiers (2 3/4 hours). The TGV connects Paris from La Souterraine, 45 minutes northwest of Nouallaguet. The affordability and friendliness of this region of Limousin seem to particularly attract UK expatriates, who all know each other and have built a welcoming and shared expat community for newcomers. The property was purchased in April 2023 for 243,000 euros excluding closing costs. The improvements (about 33,000 euros excluding equity) made during this ownership period include: Photovoltaic solar panels supplied and guaranteed by EDF (2.84 kWc) High-efficiency 200-liter water heater (tank) supplied and guaranteed by EDF New insulated front door Insulation meeting energy standards of the attic surface (500 cm of vertical material) Repair and application of thermal paint on 95% of exterior walls Repair and painting of 85% of interior walls of the house Repairs and flooring treatments on all surfaces of the 1st floor and stairs Improvements to decorations, finishes, and fixtures in the house Replacement of door and window at stone outbuilding Recovery of all outdoor furniture Restoration of bushes, shrubs, paths, etc., around the grounds Nouallaguet is probably the quietest and most peaceful place you will ever escape to... As an experienced real estate agent, I would say that this property offers a lot of value for its price of 279,900. The combination of a historic farmhouse with modern amenities, spacious land, outbuildings, and a peaceful location makes it a desirable investment. The recent improvements and the peaceful surroundings make this property a great opportunity for those looking for a tranquil countryside retreat.
