A lovingly restored & spacious detached family home in a picturesque rural location, ideal for exploring the beautiful National Park in which it is located. The house is set in the department of Aveyron, within the Midi-Pyrenees Region in the south of France.
La Bastinde is a stunning French country farm house in an elevated and commanding position, offering panoramic views over a lush green valley.
The house has been sympathetically restored to an impeccable standard and would serve as a wonderful family home or vacation rental with opportunity to easily configure a self-contained annexe.
This three-storey farmhouse boasts generously proportioned accommodation of just under 250 sq.m., and rests on an independent plot with generous gardens.
The top floor comprises two very large double bedrooms, a third double bedroom, a separate wc room, a shower room and a sizeable hallway with skylights and original exposed beams and stonework.
The middle floor comprises an entrance porch, a large modern fitted kitchen (which includes underfloor heating) comprising a central island and dining area. The kitchen opens onto a large balcony through double French doors. The middle floor also has a large lounge with 10Kw multi-fuel fire, a separate wc room, a stylish bathroom with roll-top bath and a generous hallway.
The ground floor comprises three large rooms with potential for a fourth bedroom (with garden access through double French doors), a second dining room and a games room with full size table tennis table. In addition, there is a fully-plumbed utility room and a separate room with wc that is plumbed ready for a 2nd shower. This layout is flexible in its construction and could be used as a self-contained annex with its own entrance and access to the gardens.
Key Improvements:
The house is fully double glazed throughout with modern upvc windows, in keeping with the local environment
The roof has been completely insulated, re-slated and the chimney has been rebuilt
Internal stone walls have been eithe re-plastered or retained as feature walls.

There are gardens to the rear and side of the house as well as a large grassy meadow extending from the side garden (purchased with potential for installing a pool).
The house rests beside a quiet country lane with multiple local facilities only 5 minutes away, including:
Shop⁄Bar⁄Restaurant run by a popular, welcoming local couple (with fluent English)
Communal leisure facilities including outdoor pool and tennis courts
A beautiful hotel with an excellent restaurant, heated pool and cycle hire, including electric bikes (again with fluent English)
