All the other homes in this article are already beautifully renovated, but if you’re looking for a project, this lovely stone cottage could be just the ticket.

The property has three bedrooms, a vaulted cellar and a traditional bread oven, and is set in 1,672m2 of land with a barn and hangar in the Gartempe valley near Bersac-sur-Rivalier.
