2 Bed House for sale
Saint-Martin-l'Ars, Vienne, Poitou-Charentes, France
Full Description
This is a gorgeous house with a lot of appeal. The rooms are really big and have been restored without losing the character of the house including special paint for historic buildings imported specially from Germany as well as all products used for the renovation being sourced for their ecological benefits and to be in keeping with the age of the house. The former grenier (grain store) upstairs has been turned into two large bedrooms and a bathroom, cleverly incorporating the low beams so that they are quite congenial. The south-facing terrace leading to the garden can be stepped into from the sitting room through a glazed door and from a back door at the end of the hall, facilitating easy indoor/outdoor living. The house benefits from one of the original stone fish ponds which led to the name of the hamlet, and the garden offers all sorts of scope for play, gardening or just lounging around with a glass of wine.
Access is easy by air via Poitiers Airport (50 kms) or Limoges (79kms) or train (TGV from Poitiers via Paris or Lille). If you prefer to drive, it is about 450 km to the western channel ports (Le Havre, Caen and St Malo) and 679 km to Calais.
