On the edge of the village, this pretty stone cottage has a delightful garden courtyard as well as separate parking and a vegetable plot.

The gates open to the south-facing courtyard with its terraces and mature shrubs. The front door opens into the sitting room with fireplace – to the left is a further reception room and to the right the kitchen diner (with larder).

Off the kitchen is an entrance hall with a cloakroom/WC and the stairs up to the first floor landing – here there is door to a balcony that links the house to its guest annexe.

There is also a door to a third reception room – from here there is a door to the bathroom with separate WC as well as a corridor that serves two bedrooms.

The balcony has stairs down to the courtyard as well as access to a guest bedroom with its own bathroom with WC. At the courtyard level there is a large storage room with plumbing.

Opposite the house is a parking space and, a short walk down the road, a vegetable garden.

This is a lovely house in a pretty village location, close to Verteuil-sur-Charente and Ruffec – it would make a lovely family home or lock-up and leave holiday cottage.
