Property Description
Discover an Exceptional Hilltop Farm in the Heart of the Corrèze Countryside
Nestled in the picturesque countryside of the Corrèze, in the beautiful Limousin region of France, this enchanting hilltop farm offers a rare opportunity to own an exceptional equestrian property with established rental income. Whether you're looking for a lifestyle change, a thriving smallholding, or an investment with multiple revenue streams, this remarkable property truly has it all.
Located just 10 minutes from the prestigious National Haras (France's National Horse Centre) in Arnac-Pompadour, internationally renowned for its elite Arabian horse breeding programme and world-class equestrian competitions, this property is a dream for horse lovers. Whether your passion is show jumping, dressage, breeding or simply enjoying the magnificent riding countryside, you'll quickly fall in love with this highly sought-after location and the charming château town of Pompadour.
This impressive property has a rich history as both a successful equestrian establishment and a working farm. For many years it bred its own livestock and even operated an on-site butcher's shop, which could easily be reinstated should the new owners wish to develop a farm-to-table business or other commercial venture.
The equestrian facilities are equally impressive, offering over 1,200 m² of barns and outbuildings with enormous scope for further development. There is ample space to create an indoor riding arena to complement the existing 30m x 15m outdoor sand school, while the surrounding 2.7 hectares are perfectly suited to grazing horses and producing hay, providing an excellent year-round supply of forage. The versatility of the buildings offers almost unlimited possibilities.
Four Separate Accommodations with Established Rental Income
One of the property's greatest assets is its four separate accommodations, all of which are currently generating rental income, providing an immediate return for the new owner.
The main three-bedroom farmhouse is spacious, welcoming and full of character. It features a bright open-plan lounge and dining room, a beautifully fitted kitchen and French doors opening directly onto the rear garden, where a covered swimming pool creates the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining family and friends. The ground floor also includes a boiler room and the former butcher's shop, currently used for storage.
Upstairs, a spacious landing benefits from bespoke fitted cupboards, full-length mirrored wardrobes and an airing cupboard, all handcrafted by a cabinet maker. Three generously sized bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom complete the accommodation.
The property also includes two self-contained apartments, each with its own private entrance. Both are currently generating a regular rental income and are ideal for holiday accommodation, long-term tenants or extended family living, providing excellent additional revenue while maintaining complete privacy for both owners and guests.
Completing the accommodation is a well-presented two-bedroom mobile home, featuring a fitted kitchen, bathroom, comfortable lounge and a delightful decked terrace overlooking the surrounding countryside. It is also currently generating rental income, making it another valuable income-producing asset. Heating and cooling are provided by a reversible air-source heat pump for year-round comfort.
The main farmhouse benefits from full double glazing, gas-fired central heating, a reversible air-source heat pump and solar panels, generating approximately euros500 per year through the French electricity buy-back scheme. The property is also served by a fully compliant septic tank.
A Peaceful Setting with Outstanding Views
Situated at the end of a private lane, this exceptional farm enjoys complete privacy and breathtaking panoramic views across the rolling Corrèze countryside. From the comfort of your home you can watch your horses grazing peacefully while enjoying the tranquillity that only a property like this can offer.
A charming pig enclosure, nestled within a mature chestnut coppice, adds yet more character to the property and offers endless enjoyment for children and animal lovers alike.
