For your consideration,

- just know that most Limousin is polluted by natural radioactive gas (emanating from the ground and accumulating in houses) called Radon (leukemia, cancers) although some parts are exempt
- just know that some parts of Limousin, because of presence of Uranium, have been industrially exploited during number of years with little concern on environment. You might end up buying a property with a hidden nuclear waste dump ground in the backyard or in the same village.

11 French departements are heavily polluted by Radon gas.

Do a little search on the web before. And always ask the local population, and green associations. You deserve to know. test kits for Radon are available at a cheap price. Real easte agents will of course minimise or ignore the problem.

Good luck
