Opis:

Handsome Charentaise with outbuildings. Price reduced. This pretty 3/4 bedroom house has plenty of space, an attractive garden and is within easy reach of the bustling town of St Jean d'Angely. House: Ground floor: The front door opens to the entrance hall (8 sq m) with tiled floor. To the right a door opens to the sitting room (30 sq m) with polished cement floor and an attractive fireplace with carved over-mantle. To the left of the entrance hall a door opens to another reception room (31 sq m - currently used as an informal sitting room but which could equally be used as the dining room) with wooden floor, exposed beam ceiling and fireplace. From here a door opens to the kitchen (28 sq m) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling, a range of fitted units, a large stone fireplace and a glazed door to the garden. To the rear of the kitchen a door opens into the utility room (9 sq m) off which is a WC. First floor: A wooden staircase rises from the entrance hall to the first floor landing. To the left a door opens to a large bedroom (29 sq m) with fireplace and exposed beam ceiling. At the top of the stairs is a bathroom (bath, wash-basin and WC). To the right of the landing a corridor leads to a room (9 sq m - currently used as a study / library but which could make a small bedroom), opposite which is a large walk-in wardrobe. At the end of the corridor a door opens to a bedroom (16 sq m) which in turn opens into another bedroom (28 sq m) with an ensuite bathroom (bath, wash-basin and WC). It could be possible to partition off the first bedroom (making it smaller but more private). Attic. A flight of steps lead up from the 16 sq m bedroom to the attic - where there is plenty of space to create additional rooms if desired. Outbuildings. A door from the utility room opens into a large store room which in turn leads out to a pretty little garden with a terrace. Attached to the side of the house is an outbuilding which serves as the boiler room and workshop. Detached from the house, to one corner of the courtyard, is another attractive outbuilding which serves as a good size garage. Attached to this is the bake house with bread oven. Garden: In addition to the little garden to the rear of the house, there is a large garden to the front. Directly t the front of the house is a large gravel area - plenty of space for parking and turning cars. Beyond this is the main garden - mainly laid to lawn with a number of trees and shrubs. This is an attractive house with comfortable accommodation which benefits from double-glazing throughout. Just a 15 minute drive from the attractive town of St Jean D'Angely and 60km (about 35 miles) from the historic port of La Rochelle. The property is next to a departmental road, which does mean that there is passing traffic - a potential benefit for those wishing to open a B&B.
