A selection of ten of the best Limousin properties on the market in 2019
The Limousin region of south-west France is hugely popular with property seekers from the UK. This may be as a result of its having featured frequently in property programmes such as A Place in the Sun, Grand Designs and No Going Back (Most Popular TV Programmes about French Property). These TV shows highlighted the attractions of the region, which is noted for its lovely green countryside, its many lakes, its great fishing and its cheap property. And, the region is the least populated in mainland France. Only Corsica has more space per head of populace. The Limousin has only 740,743 inhabitants on an area of around 17,000 sq km. This gives it a tranquil, rural feeling, and makes it a great escape from overcrowded Britain.
In spite of its attraction for property seekers, the Limousin retains its reputation for offering excellent value properties. And in 2019, many properties are being reduced in price to sell quickly. This makes Limousin property even more attractive.
Not only is property in the region around the cheapest in France, there is also a lot of cheap renovation property (House Renovations in France). This offers you the chance to improve a property and make a real profit when you sell. Or, to own a super home for less cash!
It's also probably the best place in the country to find a property with a fishing lake (French Properties with Lakes). There are many wonderful leisure lakes in the region too, making it a perfect place for activity loving families. So many lakes, in fact, that the Limousin is known as "The land of a thousand lakes"!
The fact that the Limousin has a sparse population means that the houses that exist there often have much more space around them than in other, more densely populated regions. Many properties have their own land, ranging from large gardens for relaxing in to vast spreads of farmland. The region is perfect for those who want to keep horses (Horses in France), for example, as landed properties are comparatively cheap.
The Limousin has lots of cheap property, but it also has some stunning luxury and character properties.
Some years ago, the Limousin was not so popular with house hunters from the UK, as it was difficult to access. These days, though, with budget airlines like Ryanair and the extending of the TGV rail network, it's easy to reach. Limoges, the capital city, has both an airport and a TGV station. There is also an airport south of Brive la Gaillarde, with direct flights to/from the UK. Poitiers in Poitou-Charentes is an option too, with an airport and TGV station.
If you're driving to the region, the excellent auto route system will get you there in just four hours from Paris. It's about 390 kilometres. Driving from Calais will take about six hours.
The Limousin could be just the French region to fall in love with in 2019. Whoever you are, and whatever you're looking for, everyone loves a bargain. So we've pulled together a list of ten of the best properties currently on the market. Fall in love with a property in the Limousin today.
