House:

Ground floor:

The front door opens to a tiled entrance area, off which is a WC. The entrance area then opens out into a large dual-aspect living room (50m2) with tiled floor, wood-burning stove and three pairs of French windows opening onto the gardens to both the front and rear of the house.

To one side of the living room, and semi-open plan to it, is a bright kitchen (15.5m2) with tiled floor, a range of fitted kitchen units and a pair of glazed doors opening to the south-facing back garden. Off the kitchen is a very useful laundry / store room (8m2) with basin and fitted units. From here there is access to the integral garage (35m2).

To the far side of the living room a door opens to a corridor which provides access to three double bedrooms (12m2, 11.5m2 and 10.5m2) all with tiled floor and one of which has glazed doors to the garden. Also off this corridor is a large family bathroom (10.5m2 - bath, walk-in shower, wash-basin and WC).

First floor:

A wooden staircase rises to the first floor landing, off which are two more double bedrooms (11.5m2 and 10m2) with tiled floors. Both bedrooms have access to a shared balcony with stunning south-facing views over the vineyards. In addition to the bedrooms there is also a full bathroom (bath, walk-in shower, wash-basin and WC).

Exterior:

The house sits on a plot of 2325m2. To the front of the house is a generous parking area, next to which is a "secret garden" - a lovely shaded area completely surrounded by high hedging, making it a totally private area. The rest of the garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with a butterfly garden (planted to attract butterflies), an orchard, lawns, trees, shrubs, flower borders and vegetable garden. Immediately to the back of the house is a large terrace area (which leads onto the lawn) providing a great outdoor entertaining area.

Completed in 2008 and benefitting from double glazing, underfloor heating and set in a small hamlet, the house enjoys a rural location with fine views. The local village (which is within walking distance) has a bar/restaurant as well as a boulangerie. The pretty little town of Segonzac (capital of the Grande Champagne and a member of the Cittaslow movement which advocates strong community and a slower pace of life with an emphasis on local produce, craft and business), is just 6km and the historic riverside towns of Cognac and Jarnac are just a little further.
