An absolutely stunning 17th century property which is set in a very quiet area of the town overlooking the roof tops and yet only a short walk from the town centre.

This property has recently been renovated including a superb kitchen, double glazing, redecoration, etc.

On the ground floor there is a large entrance hallway leading to a sitting room with a fireplace/pellet burner, a lounge (with patio doors out to the very attractive rear courtyard) including the original built-in cupboard and a fireplace/wood burner. At the end of the hallway you enter the dining room which again has patio doors, a beautiful flagstone floor, one of the property’s two staircases and a pellet burner. Beyond the dining room is the very spacious contemporary fitted kitchen/diner which has a fantastic view across the nearby countryside, a utility room , a wc and then a good size office/library (which could also be used as a downstairs bedroom).

The property has two staircases giving great versatility if you chose to use part of the property as a bed and breakfast. (subject to necessary permissions) The first floor landing leads to 5 double bedrooms (one of which is used as a large dressing room). The bedrooms have the original parquet wood flooring, all have high ceilings and are light with superb views over the town/countryside. There is also a large family bathroom with a rolltop bath, a separate shower and a wc. In addition linked between two bedrooms is a shower room and there is in addition on the 1st floor two wc’s.

Outside the property offers two great spaces. To the front is the beautiful/mature walled garden, a large decking area, a potting shed and gated parking offering off-street parking. To the rear of the property is a large, very pretty walled courtyard, running the length of the property and there is also a woodshed.

The property is located within walking distance of the pretty market town of Ruffec which has numerous shops, cafés, restaurants and a train station. The best of both worlds being in a peaceful/beautiful location whilst being able to walk into town. The cities of Angouleme and Poitiers are under an hour away.
