This remarkable town centre property is unique - a stunning large family home with a beautifully quiet garden and pool, all situated within 1 minute's walk of the town square of Ruffec with its twice-weekly markets, shops and restaurants. The house interior is sumptuously presented with huge rooms, high ceilings, a stunning staircase and a total of six bedrooms (with the possibility of creating at least two more) thus making it also ideal for the creation of a fantastic Chambres d'Hôtes / Bed & Breakfast business.

The main door leads to an enormous central entrance hall which runs from the front to the back of the property where it meets a glazed door taking you out into the garden. To the right side of the hallway there are 2 large reception rooms, one used as a formal lounge and the other as a snug. To the left side there are another two rooms comprising dining room to the front and a new kitchen with central island to the rear. Leading on from the kitchen is a handy utility room and there is also access to the boiler room. There is also a downstairs WC. At the back of the central hallway you meet the stunning staircase that continues right up to the second floor and creates a lovely central focal-point to the house.

On the first floor there is a very large landing area leading off to 4 enormous bedrooms, two of which have dressing rooms and one of which has a separate room with wash hand basin. There are also 2 bathrooms on this floor. On the second floor there are 2 further bedrooms leading off the central landing as well as 2 separate attics that could provide even more bedrooms and bathrooms.

There is also a large vaulted cellar which contains the storage container for the wood pellets that feed the central heating system.

The walled garden is beautiful with a terrace area directly behind the house which leads to the formal garden. Off to the left is the swimming pool which measures 12m x 5m and is heated with a heat-exchange pump (pompe à chaleur). There is also a poolhouse located behind the pool.

Also at the end of the garden is a small cottage that could be converted into a lovely gîte and which has its own access via a back gate in the garden leading to the road. This cottage is comprised of a room downstairs with fireplace and a room upstairs. The roof has been replaced.

Opposite the front of the property there is even a large double garage of over 100m² with attics above - great for storage.

Overall this is an amazing property with a fantastic felling of light, space and quality that needs to be visited to be fully appreciated.
