Gensac, Gironde,
€149,000  |   Ref: 9536A

Situated in the centre of a lively village, with shops and amenities on the doorstep this 3-bed house has a lovely garden and great potential.  As well as some fairly fabulous wallpaper, the rooms are surprisingly spacious, light & airy.  With a lick of paint and some updating, this could be a very comfortable home, ideal as a lock-&-leave base or air bnb prospect.  Conveniently close to the rail connection between Bordeaux and Bergerac.

There is a total 133m2 habitable space.  Here’s the layout:

Ground floor

Entrance : 17m2
Kitchen : 14m2

The attic space affords the potential to increase the living space.

Outside. 

The garden is a good size with some mature plants and a particularly lovely olive tree.  There is a covered terrace area by the house and the stone wall boarded lawn stretches away to the end of the garden.  Again, it has the potential to be transformed into a very pretty space.  There is a large barn (35m2) that adjoins the house, again offers the potential to increase the accommodation (subject to planning).  There is also a garage - very handy if you want to keep a car at the property when you are not at the property.

Location:

Gensac is a very pretty and there is a good selection of shops, a bank, bakery, doctor, medical centre, schools, chemist and tabac.  There is also a small weekly fresh produce market and Gensac is also home to a couple of well-regarded restaurants.  

If you like walking and water-based activities, it’s just a couple of kilometres from the Dordogne river and there are also three leisure lakes nearby.  If you're a keen tennis player, there are courts available and there is an active tennis club. If golf is more your thing, there are a couple of good courses nearby to choose from.  

It's an easy drive to the nearest train station with a direct line into central Bordeaux and Bergerac airport is an easy 40minute drive.  As well as a lovely stretch of the river Dordogne to explore, other towns and villages in the local area that are worth investigating might be St-Foy-la-Grande, Pessac-sur-Dordogne and Sauveterre-de-Giuyenne.
