La Talc ~ The Ultimate 'Good Life' Package: Two Houses, One Acre of Land & Everything You Need to Move In

~ €139,000. ~

57 & 59 Route d'Aubusson are not your typical French homes: La Maison d’Artiste (The Artist's House ~ Number 59) grew from an older property, traces of which can still be found in the cellars beneath the house. According to local stories, an artist purchased the property in the 1920s and went on to reimagine it entirely. He extended the original house, transformed its character, and added what is now known as La Maison de Calèche (The  Coach House ~ number 57).

In more recent years, the land - La Talc - that once surrounded the house was divided and sold, leaving the peaceful acre you see today.

Lavaveix-les-Mines is a village known for its mining heritage and 'Ateliers' (now protected monuments). Life here is centred around the friendly Monday morning market, local restaurants, and a small selection of shops, including 2 boulangeries, all within a short walk. 

The surrounding Sentiers provide miles of walking and cycling, some right from your front door; choose from lush fields, cool woodland, ancient medieval tracks, riverside or lakes with beaches and swimming - there is something for everyone. 

Whether you are looking for a holiday retreat or a full-time move, Lavaveix-les-Mines offers a stress-free lifestyle with all the modern essentials just minutes away. 

La Talc is a property in two halves joined by their shared acre of peaceful land: 

• La Maison d'Artiste We have done a lot of the hard work and is fully habitable and comfortable today, with scope for the new owners to add their own finishing touches and complete the aesthetic vision we started.

•  La Maison de Calèche needs complete renovation - we are using the garage and 'bat cave' but we havent touched the rest of the space.

We have used the property as a holiday home and were only able to get to it for a few months a year. The property works well as a holiday home but would make a fantastic family home with space to grow flowers, fruit and veg, some poultry, perhaps a sheep or two and a nice swimming pool to cool down in. 

Buy One house get One FREE!! 

Live in La Maison d'Artiste while you create a guest cottage, Air BnB or your own artist’s studio in the Coach House. 

Basically, EVERYTHING you could need to move in. Just bring your personal belongings, to be perfectly comfortable and at home.

The plan is to sell La Talc privately without the need for an estate agent which would mean the buyer would only have Notaire fees on top of the sale price - Much Cheaper!!

We know a French estate agent who speaks excellent English - she may be able to act as a Hand Holder / Translator if you felt the need. It would be up to you to discuss a price for the service you require.

We can also put you in contact with several local builders etc who speak at least a little English if you would find this useful.
