Situated in the heart of a charming village, just a few minutes from the market town of Ruffec, this impressive Maison de Maître offers a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and characterful period property, complete with a private walled courtyard and, across the quiet lane, a generous garden with stunning views, a large hangar and a traditional stone barn.

The property combines grandeur, versatility and character and has been beautifully renovated with immense taste and charm. The décor and carefully chosen colour scheme throughout are a real asset to the property, creating a stylish yet welcoming home.

The principal entrance opens into a beautiful flagstone-floored entrance hall, immediately setting the tone for the character and style of the property. A beautifully appointed, newly installed kitchen enjoys stunning views over the adjacent countryside and is equipped with an integrated oven and hob. There is also a charming fireplace with a log burner.

On the other side of the grand hallway is a truly magnificent, tastefully decorated reception room, featuring another log burner and views over the pretty courtyard. To the rear of the sitting room is a useful storage room, together with a superb shower room featuring a large walk-in shower and WC.

On the first floor is the spacious master bedroom, which enjoys superb views and immense charm, together with a newly installed en-suite shower room and WC. In addition, there are two further light and airy double bedrooms, a family shower room with WC, and another room which could be used as an office.

Like the rest of the house, all of the bedrooms and shower rooms have been recently updated and redecorated to a very high standard.

On the second floor is a vast, insulated and currently unconverted attic space (great for storage), offering exceptional potential to create further living accommodation, a studio or a master suite, subject to planning approval.

Outside, a gated entrance leads to the substantial walled courtyard, enclosed by the main house, a range of small outbuildings and traditional walls. It is a superbly private space with two covered terraces, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining.

Just across the quiet lane is a generously sized hangar offering plenty of undercover parking, together with a good-sized stone barn and a large garden/plot of land with stunning views across the rolling countryside.

These buildings offer considerable potential for conversion into gîtes, guest accommodation, studios, event spaces or professional premises, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

The property enjoys an idyllic and peaceful location on the edge of a larger village, while remaining conveniently close to local amenities. The market town of Ruffec is approximately 10 minutes away and offers numerous shops, cafés, restaurants and a railway station with connections towards Paris and the UK.

The larger cities of Limoges, with its airport, Poitiers and Angoulême are all within approximately an hour’s drive.

A rare and elegant property offering generous proportions, exceptional character, superb decorative condition and considerable further potential, all in a wonderful location.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the quality, charm and potential of this impressive property.
