Full Description


EXCLUSIVE TO BEAUX VILLAGES! You could not fail to be charmed entering the enclosed park attached to this beautiful house. Approaching on a lavender lined path you can appreciate the grandeur of this beautiful 19th century home. The wonderful south facing facade with its original architectural features offers an idea of the impressive home inside. The property currently operates as a bed and breakfast but would equally make a superb family home. The layout means that the owner’s accommodation is separate from the guest area offering privacy for the proprietor. The entrance hall, with hardwood flooring leads to the dining room, kitchen and reception rooms. All are bright, spacious and high ceilinged with a myriad of original features. The double aspect dining room has an open fireplace and views over the garden and leads through to the larger of the 2 reception rooms. The second reception room would make an excellent office or snug. The fully fitted kitchen with doors to the garden is fully equipped to cater for 12 guests. The original oak staircase leads from the entrance hall to two beautifully decorated ensuite double bedrooms with views over the garden. On the second floor there is an ensuite bedroom currently used as a family room and and a family suite with two bedrooms and a “Jack and Jill” bathroom. The owner’s part of the house includes the billiard room with wonderful decorative plasterwork and glazed doors to the garden. There is an owner’s lounge, three bedrooms, one of which is ensuite and a family bathroom. There is a large utility and laundry room. Additionally, at the rear of the house there is a large stone outbuilding used as a garage and workshop. This building has architects plans for conversion to a gite. The garden of over 8500m2 has mature trees and easily maintained lawns.
