Description

A very special family home in the heart of a village. Very well proportioned with a good sized garden and priced to sell verrieres.

This is a wonderful family home, thankfully unspoilt by diy 'home improvement' with original features, including fireplaces, doors and door furniture and has high ceilings throughout the house. There is a surprisingly large amount of space, with three generous reception rooms and a spacious sunny kitchen which leads to the veranda. The three bedrooms all have original fireplaces and large windows and beautiful parquet floors.

The house was last decorated in the 1970’s so will need some updating but is ready to move into.

Ground floor:

  • Bright kitchen (15m2) with tiled floor, west facing windows to the front and a glazed door to the south facing veranda which overlooks the garden at the side of the house. There is a double ceramic sink and large larder cupboards as well as full height built in crockery cupboards with original panelled doors.
  • Dining room (20m2) with large west facing window to the front of the house and parquet floor.
  • Sitting room (16m2) with marble fireplace, parquet floor and east facing windows overlooking the back garden.
  • Bathroom (6m2) with white loo, shower, basin, and bath.
  • Study (12m2) with east facing window overlooking the garden and a glazed door on to the south facing veranda and lino floor.
  • Wooden stairs with elegant banisters leading to first floor landing. The door to the cellar is under the stairs.

Lower ground floor:

The cellar has four large rooms, currently used for storage, with windows facing the back garden and a separate entrance. These rooms could easily be converted to create even more living space as the ceilings are approximately two metres high.

First floor:

  • Landing with parquet floor leading to three bedrooms, a bathroom and a store room
  • Bedroom 1, (16m2) with original marble fireplace, parquet floor and window overlooking the back garden. You’ll love the 1970’s orange and brown patterned wallpaper - far out man!
  • Bedroom 2, (16m2), with a large window overlooking the garden at the side of the house, also has a marble fireplace and parquet floor.
  • Bedroom 3, (16m2) with a large window at the front of the house, marble fireplace and parquet floor.
  • Bathroom, (10m2) with sloping ceiling and small south facing window. This bathroom only has a basin and the walls are not plastered, but there is plenty of room to add a bath, shower, and loo.
  • Storeroom, (10m2) as with the bathroom, this room needs plastering and has only so far been used for storage. It has a small south facing window and would make a lovely fourth bedroom.

There is a lawned garden (over 300m2) with gravel paths and shrubs at the back and side of the house. There is a small shed and two pigsties.

This is a rural village with all amenities, set amid tranquil, gently rolling countryside of oak forests, sheep, cattle and sunflowers, ten minutes from the beautiful valley of the vienne with its opportunities for fishing, canoe/kayaking and amazing riverside walks. The village has a good range of commercial facilities including bars, restaurants, bakers, butcher, village shop, chemist, hotel, post office, primary school, library and garage. It also has successful football teams for all age groups.

This is a large house in good condition and is excellent value for money so we don’t expect it to remain available for long.

30 minutes from Poitiers airport, TGV railway station (90 minutes to Paris) and futuroscope; 90 minutes from Limoges airport.
