Set in the highly sought-after commune of Saint-Coutant, this impressive renovated stone farmhouse offers generous accommodation, extensive outbuildings and 1.5 hectares of private grounds, all within a short drive of the popular market towns of Lezay and Melle.

The current owners have undertaken a thoughtful renovation, carefully preserving the traditional character of the property while incorporating modern comforts such as an air-source heat pump, solar panels and double glazing. These upgrades contribute to an excellent “C” energy performance rating, a rare and valuable feature for a rural stone property.

The ground floor is centred around a magnificent 58m² main reception room, combining living and dining areas, featuring traditional terracotta floor tiles and a wood-burning stove — an ideal space for both family life and entertaining. This room opens through to a stylish, modern fitted kitchen, which enjoys sliding glazed doors leading directly onto a terrace and the surrounding gardens. Further ground floor accommodation includes:
• A practical back kitchen/walk-in pantry
• Two ground-floor bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room (the second currently used as a music room)
• Utility / maintenance room
• Rear hall
• Separate WC
• Large integral garage

Upstairs, a landing leads to three good-sized bedrooms, two of which share an en-suite shower room and WC, providing comfortable and flexible accommodation for family and guests.

The property is set within 1.5 hectares of very private land, offering a peaceful rural setting with plenty of space for gardens, a swimming pool (subject to necessary consents) other leisure or smallholding use. A useful range of outbuildings provides excellent potential for storage, workshops or further development (subject to necessary permissions). This is a beautifully presented rural home combining character, space and modern energy efficiency, ideal as a permanent residence, holiday home or lifestyle property in one of the region’s most desirable locations.
