Property description

House

Ground floor

The front door opens into the entrance hall (11 sq m) with tiled floor. To the right a door opens to a large L-shaped kitchen / dining / informal reception area. The informal sitting area (26 sq m) has a tiled floor and is open plan with the kitchen / dining area (31 sq m). This area has a tiled floor and a fitted kitchen. The two areas of this space are divided by an open free-standing fireplace.

To the rear of the kitchen a doorway opens to a utility area which in turn leads through to a corridor running along the rear of the house. A glazed door opens from the kitchen to the delightful covered dining terrace.

To the left of the entrance hall a door opens to the sitting room (20 sq m) with wooden floor and exposed beam ceiling. From here a couple of steps lead down to a room (18 sq m - currently used as an office) with tiled floor, a door to the front garden and an exposed beam ceiling. These two rooms are open plan with each other and are divided by an open fireplace.

To the rear of this room a door opens to a corridor that runs along the back of the house (eventually leading back to the kitchen at the other end). Off this corridor is a large bedroom (19 sq m) with a part-glazed to the rear garden. Also off the corridor are a laundry room, a WC and a wash basin.

First floor

A wooden staircase rises from the entrance hall to a first floor landing off which are two large bedrooms (19 sq m and 19 sq m) both with exposed beam ceiling. There is also a bathroom (bath, shower, washbasin and bidet).

A flight of steps to the rear of the room currently used as an office rises to a second landing. To the right is a bedroom (13 sq m) with an ensuite shower (shower and washbasin). To the left of the landing are a store cupboard, a shower and a WC. To the end of the landing is a suite of two rooms consisting of a study/reading room (11 sq m) which leads through to a bedroom (21 sq m). These last three rooms are built into the eaves and therefore have limited head-height to one side.

Externally

The house sits on a plot of 801 sq m. To the front is a small garden area with more garden to the side and rear of the house. There is an area of lawn with a small ornamental pond, a former bread oven and a large covered terrace. There is also an attached garage.

This is a large house which could perhaps be divided into two. The local village has the basic amenities and larger towns of Cognac and Saintes are within easy driving distance.
