Property description

An enchanting stone-built house sympathetically renovated to maintain its charm and rusticity.
Set in a wonderful, quite rural location with far reaching views over farmland of sunflowers and wheat, the house is set in 3,645m² of garden/meadow, comprising numerous trees; including Fig, Apple, Walnut, Cherry and Hazelnut, and a well-established vine.
The building comprises of several large rooms and has a total current living space of 220m², there is still more potential for the new owners to expand this living space to a total of 300m².
On the ground floor there is a large breakfast room (with wood burning stove) leading into a fully fitted kitchen; through a hallway off which is the downstairs bathroom; then into a very large living room (50m²) containing a large traditional rustic open fireplace. In this large living area there is also a bar area built from original wooden beams. All rooms have exposed original beams providing that true feeling of being in the countryside. All the external doors/windows on the ground floor are solid wood and double glazed and were installed in 2004. The remaining ground floor consists of a large internal garage which could easily be converted to a dining room or morning sun room.
The staircase was recently installed in April 2011 made of solid wood and complements the design of the overall building. At the top of the stairs there are four large double bedrooms plus a fully fitted cinema (included in the price). There is a new (installed April 2011) luxury bathroom fitted with Villeroy and Boch fixtures and a large shower of 120x90cm. All the windows upstairs are of solid wood and double glazed incorporating mosquito nets and were fitted in June 2010.
The roof was completely renewed in 2004 and is still under guarantee. All the external shutters on the ground and first floor were replaced in 2010 made from solid wood and very secure.
There is a very large attic space (80m²), enabling the development of a further four rooms if required.
To the rear of the building is a large newly laid patio of 50m² which enjoys the sun from noon until sunset. Within the meadow are various decking areas for differing views and sunspots, also within the meadow is an above ground pool of 5m diameter and 1.5m deep. This was newly installed in April 2011.
Viewing of this tranquil and large property is highly recommended.
