Full Description
Tucked away in the rolling hills of the Southern Charente, amidst the renowned cognac vineyards, this remarkable 19th-century former cognac domaine has been masterfully restored to an exceptional standard. The current owner has infused the estate with elegance, comfort, and refined taste, resulting in a residence that perfectly balances authenticity with modern luxury.
The main maison de maître, offering approx. 600 m² of impeccably renovated living space, is a masterclass in scale, light, and sophisticated design. Expansive reception rooms include a grand 70 m² salon ideal for entertaining, while the upper floors feature four serene bedrooms and three refined bathrooms. The crowning jewel is the top floor, transformed into a spectacular 190 m² leisure space complete with billiards, cinema, and a private bar—designed for unforgettable moments with friends and family.
Three additional guest houses, each around 200 m² and all in pristine condition, provide a total of ten further bedrooms—ideal for hosting guests, running a hospitality business, or accommodating extended family.
The estate’s outbuildings—totalling over 1000 m²—comprise workshops, garages, and barns, opening the door to a variety of bespoke projects: a classic car gallery, an art atelier, an events venue, or private equestrian stables.
A majestic tree-lined driveway leads through an electric wrought-iron gate into the heart of the property’s enchanting parkland. Here, on 14 ha, century-old trees, a tranquil pond, a small vineyard, and an oak woodland create a breathtaking natural setting. A heated swimming pool with a pool house completes this idyllic picture.
Perfectly located just 25 km from the Tgv station in Angoulême and moments from a charming village with all amenities, this rare estate is a sanctuary of serenity and sophistication—ready to welcome its next chapter.
A true jewel in the Charente countryside.
