Situated in a very pretty hamlet, just 15 minutes’ drive from historic Cognac, this traditional Charentais property is set on its own substantial plot with glorious, far-reaching views over the vines and the countryside beyond.

The main house has four bedrooms and the large separate house, currently used as a gite, has a further three.

Iron gates open onto a gravelled courtyard, with a shaded seating area and direct access to the gite, the house and the lawned gardens beyond. You enter the house via the light and welcoming high-ceilinged hall, which gives access to the heart of the home, the large, double-aspect fully fitted kitchen and dining area, complete with exposed stonework, wooden rafters and views of the gorgeous pool space. A beamed archway gives access to the equally light and grand living room, with wood burning stove and bifold doors opening onto the manicured front lawn. On the other side of the hall, you find three bedrooms (one currently used as an office) and a spacious shared bathroom. Wooden stairs lead up to the master bedroom with an en suite shower and WC, and yet more wonderful views of the pool and vines.

The second property makes for an exceptionally attractive gite, with bags of wood and stone throughout, a large kitchen and dining space, a similarly spacious lounge area and three good-sized bedrooms upstairs.

The gardens are fully fenced and secure, the pool area is to die for, and the current owners have even installed a boules court for their visitors to while away the warm summer evenings.

Are you looking for a stylish, comfortable and substantial home, with room to accommodate a large, extended family and friends? Or are you intent on living the dream and taking the reins of a gite business in southwestern France (to continue the activity, the future owner will need to undertake their own administrative procedures)? Either way, this wonderful property is certainly worth a visit.
