House with 3 income-generating apartments and 4th potential
This impressive property is full of surprises! From the street, it’s hard to imagine that behind the charming façade lies a main house and an adjoining building with four apartments, plus a spacious garden of around 600 m².
The main house, which has retained some beautiful period features, consists on the ground floor of a spacious entrance leading to the living area, the access to the rear courtyard, and the upper floors.
The living area itself includes a large living room and dining room with a wood stove, as well as a kitchen and a utility room with a toilet. On the first floor, there are two bedrooms, each with its own shower or bathroom and toilet. On the second floor, there is a small room currently used as an office, a third bedroom, and the attic. The house has oil-fired central heating.
At the rear, accessible from the main entrance, there is a charming small courtyard that leads, among other things, to the adjoining building containing the various apartments:
On the ground floor: the first apartment comprises a kitchen/dining area, a shower room with WC, a living room, and a double bedroom. Heating is gas.
A second apartment requires renovation. Preparatory work has already been carried out; only the kitchen, bathroom, and décor remain to be installed. Materials are already available.
On the upper floor: two more apartments.
The third apartment includes a double bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, a dining area, and a shower room with WC. Heating is also gas.
Finally, the fourth apartment has a shower room, two bedrooms, and a living/kitchen/dining space. The heating in this apartment is electric.
The exterior is just as appealing. From the courtyard, you reach a pleasant rear garden with mature trees, including a lovely cherry tree, and enjoy peaceful views over the surrounding countryside. The property also features interesting basement spaces, including several areas: a vaulted cellar housing the oil-fired boiler, as well as a large basement ideal for storage, previously used as individual cellars for each apartment. Additional spaces are perfect for creating DIY workshops.
Le Dorat is truly a charming village, combining the serenity of a small countryside town with a lively local life, including a very popular summer farmers’ market on the Place de la Collégiale. You will also find all necessary shops and services close by: bakery, butcher, supermarket, hairdresser, bar, restaurant, and pharmacy. Just fifteen minutes away is Bellac, which offers larger facilities, including bigger supermarkets.
It is difficult to summarise in just a few lines everything this property has to offer, given its size, amenities and many advantages. A visit is a must!

If this or other properties are of potential serious interest, you may wish to speak in confidence and without obligation or commitment with a sympathetic senior negotiator to discuss what flexibility there may be in the price.
Getting the right deal can be a question of good timing and we have that information.
Whatever you read in the press, it is simply not true that one can apply a percentage discount to the price of any property we like the look of. And it is a real shame to fall in love with a property that is beyond what you wish to spend or can afford.
