ID 5277 · Renovated stone farmhouse on the River Cher

About this house

In Château-sur-Cher, Puy-de-Dôme, this old stone building, once used for farm animals and storage on one side and with a bread oven on the other, has been carefully renovated, keeping the original bread oven and a stone water trough. The grounds of 9,175 m² border the River Cher, a first-category fishing river.

There are 106 m² of living space and 4 rooms: a 24 m² kitchen, a 38 m² living room, two bedrooms of 14 m² and 26 m², each with its own shower room, and an 8 m² room, plus a covered west-facing terrace of about 21 m². Évaux-les-Bains is 9 km away. The price is €146,000, with agency fees paid by the seller.

Heating is by wood-burning stove plus electric radiators, with double glazing and a septic tank.

Buying in France: the sale is completed by a notaire, and buyers should budget for notary fees and transfer taxes on top of the price. A preliminary contract (compromis de vente) is signed first, followed by a cooling-off period for the buyer. Foreigners can buy freely; French banks do lend to non-residents but usually ask for a sizeable deposit.
