Description

Set in the very heart of a pretty village, this impressive property is packed with original character and comes with a walled garden and a set of attractive outbuildings. The local market town, Rouillac, is just a short drive and offers most facilities including shops, restaurants and a supermarket.

A generous entrance hall with an original tiled floor gives access to the very large, dual-aspect living room. This room is easily large enough to provide both sitting and dining areas. Off the living room is the kitchen, fitted with a range of modern fitted units and a door to the garden. To the rear of the kitchen, a door opens to a utility room.

Off the main entrance hall there is also a bathroom, a separate WC and a pretty room (currently used as a bedroom).

The original wooden staircase rises from the rear of the hall to the first floor landing off which are four bedrooms. All four bedrooms have wooden floors and exposed beam ceilings, and three of them have fireplaces. The master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom as well as a dressing room. Off the dressing room is an office from which a flight of stairs lead back down to the utility room.

The staircase continues to the attic space – as yet unconverted but which could provide further accommodation if required (subject to relevant permissions).

A door under the stairs in the main entrance hall leads down to the cellar.

Attached to the house is a barn, next to which is an attractive winter garden / orangery. To the rear of the garden and facing the house is another attractive outbuilding.

The property sits on a plot of 1118m2 and the garden is mostly laid to lawn with a number of trees and shrubs.

The local town of Rouillac offers most facilities and the larger historic towns of Jarnac and Cognac are within easy reach. The city of Angoulême (the department’s capital) is also within easy reach an offers a LGV /TGV rail link to Paris and Bordeaux.
