St Gilles is 5 minutes by car from the small town of St Benoit du Sault (officially ranked one of the most beautiful villages in France) with a supermarket and plenty of shops, whilst the larger town of Argenton-sur-Creuse with more supermarkets and businesses and is less than 10 minutes drive in the opposite direction and here there is a slo a station with direct links by train to Paris.

In about an hour by car, you can be at the International Airport in Limoges with daily flights to regional UK airports. On the ground floor of the house to the rear there is a tiled conservatory style room leading to a rustic-style kitchen with sink and cupboards, behind which is a large shower room with toilet.

There is a huge open living/dining room with an original fireplace and floor tiled with lovely old tomettes (quarry tiles) and which also has exposed beams, and a large bedroom with tiled floor and a fireplace with inset wood burning stove, off which is a further large bathroom (bath, basin, separate toilet and large store room). On the first floor there is a large mezzanine landing/ bedroom area leading to a further very large bedroom, both carpeted and in the eaves.

The mezzanine overlooks the small conservatory style room and the bedroom has a dormer window with a lovely view out over the back garden and the fields beyond. The property has a central heating system with oil fired boiler, and sanitation by septic tank (which according to the owner functions really well but is not conforming to current regulations).

Attached to the property there is a large barn housing a garage and the pool equipment, as well as a large tiled boiler/utility room with storage/attic space above it. The pool cover requires some attention since there has been some hail damage. To the front the property overlooks a lovely village green area and to the rear there is a large attached garden of around 2,400m2 mostly laid to lawn but also housing a very sturdy large wooden cabin and an 8x4m in ground swimming pool and terrace areas.

There is also additional land in several plots, none of which are too far from the property, and which total around 2 hectares in total. Some are small plots, one near the house is a vegetable plot, however there are several that are all together and total around 1.7 hectares, and these are accessible directly from a public road and have a mill race running through them so they would be excellent for grazing. This is a charming property, immediately habitable.

It sits in a lovely spot and has a lovely piece of land and is a overall a beautiful property to visit. Price including agency fees : 171.200 Price excluding agency fees : 160.000 Buyer commission, tax included: 7%

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £4,426 more.
