    Description

    Hi my name is Simon I am an English 63 years young living in central France and I have been here over 15 years. I am working on an ongoing project to restore a grand old historic Manor house and its outbuildings. The propery dates from 1800s and is situated in central France in the Limousine national park surrounded by open coutryside lakes and rivers nature on the doorstep. Sitting elavated over its own 25 acres of open fields and woodland it is both private and tranquil and surrounded by countryside. I am seeking help on my exciting project with general building work, carpentry, stone work, roofing, decorating, landscaping and forestry work to name but a few. This is a jolly sociable happy lively home with a number of my children comming and going from time to time I am very sociable and enjoy meeting and spending time with new people. The house boasts potentially 8 bedrooms so i have a number of private bedrooms to accommodate you along side access to all the normal home facilities TV, Internet, Telephone a home from home environment and I also offer the opportunity to imerse yourself in the local rural French lifestyle and culture living and working with me in this grand old property. I am very easy going and content living in a beautiful and quiet location and can offer you in return for your help good food good wine and good company and good fun. This offers an excellent opportunity to work with me in my grand historic home with character helping for instance to restore a grand old staircase and working on and in many rooms untouched for years. Opportunities to do stone work and work on old floors to re lay and restore etc. This is an old character house and somewhere with a soul and history. I also have a party barn with a pool a table table football and gym equipment etc and quads motorbikes for free time fun so its not just about work also a place to un wind and enjoy yourself to. If interested please contact me today. Many thanks Simon
