While in a tranquil hamlet surrounded by countryside, this superb completely private south-facing property is just 7 minutes from Mansle, 20 minutes from both Ruffec and Angouleme, and one hour from Poitiers and Limoges airports. The property comprises the detached main house, swimming pool, annexe, cottage for renovation (subject to permissions), two large barns, a working pizza/bread oven and hangar. The garden and land of 4,489m2 includes a large courtyard, a small orchard, and a woodland plot with a cave!
The house has immense charm and character from exposed stone walls, wooden beams, stone Charentais fireplaces and flagstone flooring. On entering you step into a spacious entrance hall with traditional stone sink. From the entrance hall straight ahead is the shower room, to the right is a large lounge with woodburner and chestnut wooden floor, and to the left is the kitchen/diner/snug. This large room has a woodburner, flagstone and coeur de demoiselle flooring, and double doors leading out to the part-covered sunny terrace. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, the largest of which has an en suite shower room, and there’s a vaulted family bathroom. All upstairs rooms have Velux windows, flooding them with light.
The annexe adjoins the house through two doors for sound proofing, so can be used as part of the house – perhaps as a guest bedroom with en suite, or a utility. Or, as it has its own front door, it can be used as a separate unit with potential to be rented out, subject to permissions. The annexe is equipped with a kitchen, shower room and surprisingly roomy lounge/dining area plus a bed ledge.
The property has a DPE level E and fibre internet.
Outside as well as the terrace attached to the house, there’s a covered terraced area by the bread oven, a hangar (which can accommodate a motorhome), two large barns and a cottage. These, together with the house and annexe, form three sides of the sizeable gravelled courtyard with ample parking for numerous vehicles. The fourth side of the courtyard is the wall to the completely enclosed pool area. The pool area is paved and gravelled, and looks out over the orchard and woodland beyond. The in-ground pool is 5x10m and the liner was replaced in June 2022.
This truly is a stunner and in great condition, so seize your dream and book your viewing before someone else beats you to it!
