We are considering selling our small off-grid cottage in central #France. The property is located in the #LaCreuse department, #Limousin region, in a quiet hamlet on the edge of a forest.

The house sits on a large 2,265 sqm parcel (approx. 0.56 acres) which includes:

–A small courtyard in front of the house

–Garden area

–A field

–A large forested area

The stone house has an area of approx. 68 m² with a fully rebuilt roof. All structural woodwork was replaced, except for the original 100-year-old oak beams (still in excellent condition). The beams were treated against termites and borers, and the roof was finished with premium Terreal terra cotta tiles (installed 2011–2012). Additional upgrades include Kingspan structural foam insulation in roof, mains water connection, a new entry door, and three new wooden cave doors.

The property is currently off-grid, powered by a 1,040 W solar installation (4× BenQ 260 W panels, 3 kVA 48 V hybrid inverter, 400 Ah 48 V GEL battery bank, aluminum rail mounting system). Everything you need to live comfortably off-grid.

Please note: there is no septic system. There is currently composting toilet system installed. If desired, a conventional septic system would need to be installed by the new owner. Heat system currently installed is a 9.5kW Franco Belge wood burning stove in green enamel.

💰 Asking price: 0.25 BTC (25M sats) — negotiable for the right buyer!

Your property is beautiful 🤌🏾

Thank you! It could be *your* new property! 😃

I see what you did there 😂

Good luck with the sale. I’m sure you’ll find a buyer. It’s really beautiful

😂 Would be so cool to find someone via nostr! Handing it off to another nostrich/bitcoiner would be amazing knowing it's in good hands, and would also save us having to go through the whole fiat real estate process.

Maybe I'm missing something but the price seems very low?

Well, it’s a rural area—Prices are generally lower in this area than elsewhere in France—but yes we *hope* for the right person this would be an absolute steal! It has more land than most properties one might find in this price range and most of the heavy lifting in terms of renovations (with the exception of the septic) has already been done.

However it’s currently without mains power which could be a factor for some (but could easily be connected to the grid), and in order to conform to French regulations a septic (fosse septique) may need to be installed. So those are the main factors reflected in the price.

Also this is the ‘paid in Bitcoin’ price 😉

If we eventually have to list with an agency there would be taxes and fees on top so list price would have to be higher.

A bitcoiner will buy it. I'm sure. I would love to own it. Especially at that price.

Nothing would make me happier than to be able to hand it over to another bitcoiner who could cherish it as much as we have.

How are the French laws regarding paying a house in BTC ? Are there supplementary taxes to pay ? I would guess so.

Yeah there are what’s referred to as ‘notaire fees’ which are transfer taxes paid to the state. Of course those would need to be paid in Euro directly to the notary. But there is nothing preventing two individuals conducting a sale between parties settled in whatever medium desired.

I am >< close

This is awesome

I’m interested

Drop me a DM if you want to chat! 🤙

Awesome house. Good luck 🫡 I’d be all over this if it was in my area of the world. How far from nearest town/major city?

Depends what you define as ‘major’ it’s definitely a rural area. “La France profonde”

It’s about 4 hours (by car or train) south of Paris, 1 hour from either Limoges or Montluçon.

Closest cities are Guèret and La Souterraine, each about 25km away, but there are supermarkets, bakeries, butchers, hardware store, etc in a nearby town 7km from the village.

I love that as well

No way

👀 tempted??

Check DMs!

Replied! 🤙

This is a great deal, if I had the money and a reason to live out there I would jump on it.

Maybe… this IS your reason! 😉

Actually I ended up here quite by chance myself about 15 years ago! It was one of the most amazing times of my life the time I spent there.

Really hard to part with it, but life seemingly has other plans for us.

Looks really nice.

Good luck

Thank you 🙏 we’ve put lots of love into it over the years! Truly hope to find someone who would appreciate it as much as we have.

History in the making.

#Nostr1st

I hope so! It would make me feel so good to hand our beloved property over to another bitcoiner/nostrich.

Beautiful place! 😍

Thank you! It’s a special place for us for sure 😚

This is the most tempting attempt at my cold storage corn in a while. Not today though

nostr:nevent1qqsp84gwaumk5l63extnpaq3lsxrl53hk56epp05kegg7aras89thuqprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvaq2mlc

That looks gorgeous. Such a tranquil lifestyle. Bon chance !

Merci! Some of the best times of our lives were spent there 😚

Wow this could actually be historic. A property transaction fully via Nostr + Bitcoin. Off-grid, renovated roof, and solar setup make it attractive for anyone looking for sovereignty. Sharing for visibility!

Thanks for sharing! 🤙

Forgot to mention, lots of mature fruit trees on the property too!

Looks gorgeous. 100 years old?

Yeah approximately. Not sure about the exact date but that’s about what the villagers estimated, sometime around 1920s or 30s. It’s a very simple structure and was originally built as an outbuilding from a neighboring farmhouse in the village and later repurposed to a home sometime in the 70s.

Is there an air gap between the outer wall and the interior (for insulation purposes)?

No, that's not common in this area at all– Local contruction is primarlily thick limestone walls, with lime mortar. Breathable and well insulated on its own. Walls are 40cm thick and provide fairly decent insulating properties – Takes time to warm up in winter, but once warm stone holds heat a long time. Especially good for keeping heat *out* in summer, with no need for A/C!

Some people do use insulation bewteen stone walls and interior drywall, or you can opt for something more eco-friendly (and breathable which the walls will appreciate!) by using cob, mixed with straw, wool, or similar materials on the interior walls.

Biggest insulating bump would be from replacing the existing original windows on lower level since they are single pane and quite out-dated.

I hope this sells here!

Whoever buys this is welcome to hire me if they need help building/remodeling while staying true to the original design.

Awesome! Very cool 💪

What is the water source and how far from grid power. Is there internet or cell service?

Mains water is already installed. There’s a kitchen sink, bathroom sink, and shower, all with hot water provided by a propane on-damn water heater.

It’s only a few 100 few max from grid power connection. It would be trivial to connect it to the grid if desisted, just a question of cost.

Yes there is internet (Orange, SFR) available as well as cell service.

*On-demand water heater (typo) 😅

And “a few meters from grid power”

What is the water source, city water? If so, what is their source/setup, deep well?

Yes, it's on mains (city) water supply from the commune. I am not sure of the exact setup, most likely a deep well as that's the most common in the area. Water is abundant and cheap in this region.

We are looking for an investor who can loan our holding company 237,000 US dollars.

With this money, we will open a farm in Baku, Azerbaijan to produce animal-based food.

We will also make our own animal feed, so our products will be healthier, better quality, and cheaper.

Because we sell quality products for less and have strong advertising, we will sell more worldwide and make big profits.

Why Azerbaijan? Because animal farming makes a lot of money there, but few people do it. That’s why we will earn more by starting in Azerbaijan.

Additionally, by producing our own animal feed, we will be able to sell healthier, higher quality animal products at a lower price.

Since we can sell quality products cheaply and thanks to our strong advertising network, we will be able to sell more internationally and make huge profits.

The reason for establishing the business in Azerbaijan is that animal husbandry is a very profitable business in Azerbaijan, but since there are very few people doing animal husbandry, establishing the farm in Azerbaijan will provide us with more income.

Your profit:

You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars.

Your earnings will be great. When 22.03.2026 comes, you will get your money back as 953.00 US dollars.

You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars.

When 22.03.2026 comes, I will give you back your money in the amount of 953,000 US dollars.

That means you will earn 716,000 US dollars profit in just 9 months.

Belle Baraque !

Merci, on a mis beaucoup du bulot dans cette petite maison. ☺️

You can just zap a house on Nostr. Now we’re talking 💜

Haha yes! #zapsnag

😂

Simple and abundant nature🤍

What's the floor plan? How many bedrooms?

Ground floor is comprised of three main rooms, kitchen, living area, and bedroom. Along with a small bathroom with hot shower.

Upstairs is under the roof, but there are three rooms. One landing room where the stairs go up, a middle room and last room was our bedroom. Technically these could all be individual bedrooms, but you walk through one room to enter the next room.

We had three bedrooms set up while we lived there, but keep in mind the house itself and individual rooms are all on the small side. It’s very simple but comfortable; all depends on needs and how you’d want to set things up.

Ok got it - so comfortably 3 bedrooms + one link room between upstairs

Yep, that's exactly how we have it set up.

GMGM!

Comment se passe le paiement en bitcoin et la procédure de vente chez le notaire?

On signera une acte de vente. Le paiement en Bitcoin sea effectué entre deux particuliers, mais les frais notaires devra être réglé en Euro chez le notaire. Une foie tout est réglé on signera l’acte de propriété.

This is risky for the buyer. The only way is to make the transfer when both parties are inside the notary office and the deed is signed but not notarized yet. I don't know if it even legal in France. For instance, in Spain the money should arrive from a Spanish bank account in the amount not less than the cadastral value.

True, or course there’s some risk. It could also happen the other way around, sign first buyer pays after— either way the buyer and seller need to trust each other. Otherwise we have the fiat system to fall back on, but then there are more taxes, more fees, and more headaches involved.

We did the same thing when we bought the place- came to an agreement with the previous owner, paid cash directly to them and then went to the notaire to do the official stuff. And on the acte de vente we listed a much lower price and therefore paid almost nothing in fees (less than 500€ total).

So yeah, it’s possible but definitely requires trust in the two parties. If buyer prefers to pay taxes/fees involved in return for greater security via notaire, then payment could also be in fiat. But it will end up costing them more.

If you hold the keys and the title documents until the bitcoin payment confirms, here is no risk for the seller. That is why this should be done face-to-face. But without the notary, how does the buyer proves ownership? You can come back and say he moved in illegally. With bitcoin there is no room for "both parties should trust each other". The payment is final and irrevocable.

Yes, I agree– what you describe is exaclty how it would proceed. The notaire would execute the contracts and prepare the deeds.

What you suggest is pretty sure tax fraud? Or only regarding the notary fees? I'm sure it's very common but I wouldn't advertise it in public including details like photos online. Even if nobody looks on nostr it is still out there in the internet and could be used against you? ✌️

Je sais pas

Best of luck. Something like that would be at least 2BTC+ in Australia.

🤯wtf. Aussie buyers welcome!

your average pay is higher, but here is the issue that's really far out in the wild

That's standard rural population here haha.

Where Im at: a good yearly income 0.5btc but 50% taxes. 4.4btc for a basic house in a town of 60000. How does that compare?

i am interested

Send me a DM we can chat!

I did please check

I would like to come and visit the place.

Hi, I can’t find your message anywhere sorry. I will try to dm you from my side now

Wow! Very beautiful!

hey -- we want to send you a test zap, but couldn’t find a NIP-05 or ⚡ lightning address on your profile. u can set one up for free on rizful https://rizful.com ... then pls reply here and we will do a test zap.

Dm

Respect. If if was slightly closer to the coast I would genuinely be v v interested

♥️ Yah, it's about right dead center in France haha.

Closest would be La Rochelle / Île de Ré / Îse d'Oléron areas about 3.5 hours by car.

how far from closest city?

I saw it just a bit later. Thank you

I saw it, just a bit later when reading comments. Thank you! 🤝

I saw it, just a bit later when reading comments. Thank you! 🤝

we fuckin live in the future. love it filou!

🤩

Does the Tour ever come close by?

Yeah! The route changes every year but sometimes they come fairly close though the next town over.

What an absolute dream. If I had my driving license in place this would be the only sign I'd need!

Best of luck selling it I'm 100% sure you'll find a wonderful family for your home 💜

It’s France. No thanks 😂

lol touché

Anything in Europe is a bad idea to own lol

Tend to agree with you there. I know you're bullish latam 🤔

😏

Payable via Lightning?

Btw: Has a house purchase already been completed via Lightning?

Yeah! ⚡️

No idea if this could be the first. We are living in the future 🤙

Considering buying this and using it as a place to store a multisig key lol 😂

Aw, yeah it’s a super cute place with tons of potential. We’ve put a lot of love in it over the years!

What a beautiful place! If it where outside the EU I wouldn't hesitate to make you an offer

I would love to buy that but my wife will give me shit 😂

Jolie ça. Et prix correct 👌

C'est magnifique, acheter une maison en BTC, le rêve !!!!

A great opportunity for you to buy your first house in France with #Bitcoin

Hell yeah brother. Keep up the great work. NOSTR market place coming soon!

The future has arrived! ⚡️

Imagine someone zapsnags a house

It’s going to happen!

Is it classified as a vacation property? Or is permanent residence with domicile allowed ? 🤘

It was our permanent residence for about 8 years. Not currently classified as vacation rental but it could make a good one if someone wanted to go that route.

Nice, here most small properties don’t have that perk. I’m about 700 klicks out and I have been in that province before, I’ll give it a good ponder ✌️

.25 BTC !!!!

You can hardly buy a tool shed in America for this price.

Worth every #sat. Curious to see who gets it.

For sure.

A stone cottage on half an acre in the French countryside for only .25 BTC. Also please forgive my 3 reposts, Nostr newb!

Serieusement, je vais aussi en parler à ma maman 😅

It's too far from me, I'm on the Riviera. Close to the mountains, "just in case". 😂

(I stopped writing in French, there's an annoying bot that reposts everything.)

Yeah, I just got reposted 🥲 It's a bit far for us too. I'm looking around for something around Marseille.

After the little one finishes high school, I might get fresh ideas. Till then, I'll keep it facile.

Ca fait envie mec!

Love It

Do you have more interior photos

🤩🤩🤩🤩

That’s a really nice place! Wishing you luck!

Trop cute ça donne envie :) ! 😍
