Pretty Charentaise farmhouse with 3 independent g�tes
This charming Charentaise farmhouse has been sympathetically renovated to provide a family home and three private g�tes.
Main House
Ground floor
The front door opens to the entrance hall with tiled floor and exposed beam ceiling. To the rear of the entrance hall a door leads through to a ground floor WC. To the right of the hall a pair of glazed doors opens to the sitting room (33 sq m) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling and a traditional limestone Charentaise fireplace with wood-burning stove.
To the left of the entrance hall matching pair of glazed doors opens to the kitchen (33 sq m) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling and a range of fitted kitchen units - the room is easily large enough for a good size dining table, making it a great entertaining space.
To the side of the kitchen a few steps lead down to a hall, to the left of which is a room (19 sq m) with tiled floor and glazed doors to the garden. This room is currently used as an office, but could equally be used as a further reception room or as an additional bedroom. To the other side of the hall is the laundry room with a door to the pool area to the rear of the house.
First floor
To the side of the kitchen a flight of stairs lead up to a landing, off which are two bedrooms (26 sq m and 12 sq m). The largest bedroom has an ensuite bathroom (bath, shower, washbasin and WC) and a balcony overlooking the courtyard and swimming pool. There is also a shower room off the landing.
Apartment
Accessed either via the sitting room or from the courtyard, the charming apartment comprises a living room (26 sq m) with well defined sitting and dining areas. To one side, and semi-open plan to the living space is the kitchen with a range of fitted units. To one side of the living space a staircase rises to the first floor landing, off which are two bedrooms (17 sq m and 10 sq m), both with balconies overlooking the pool area. Also off the landing are a shower room and a separate WC.
La Petite Maison
Located in the rear walled courtyard, next to the pool, is an elegant one-bedroom apartment comprising a living room (27 sq m) with kitchen, sitting and dining areas, a bedroom (17 sq m) and a shower room with shower, wash basin and WC.
La Maison du Jardin
Located to one side of the front garden is a generous two-bedroom g�te. The front door opens to a large entrance hall. To the left a door opens to a bedroom (12 sq m) with tiled floor. To the right is a bathroom (bath, wash basin and WC). To the rear of the entrance is a hall, off which is a bedroom (20 sq m) with ensuite shower room. Also off the hall are a laundry room and a WC.
To the left of the hall a doorway leads through to a large dual-aspect living room (40 sq m) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling, fireplace and a corner kitchen. To one side a flight of stairs lead up to a large mezzanine floor (28 sq m).
Outbuildings
Attached to the house is a good-size barn (about 60 sq m) into which it could be possible to extend the habitable accommodation (subject to any relevant planning consents). To one side of the courtyard is a second outbuilding - ideal for use as covered parking.
Exterior
In total the property comes with 3887 sq m (just under one acre). To the front of the house is an attractive walled garden with terrace, lawn, trees and shrubs. To the rear of the house is a walled courtyard with the swimming pool and sun terrace. Just over the lane is another area of lawn, running down to a stream. Just over the lane from La Maison du Jardin is an orchard.
This is an extremely comfortable property with plenty of living accommodation. It could make a great home with good income potential.
