4 Bed Farmhouse for sale
Linazay, Vienne, Poitou-Charentes, France
Full Description
Rooted in a historic rural estate, the property combines traditional barns with wraparound paddocks, preserving a layout shaped by its equestrian use.
Approached through a mature chestnut avenue, the first glimpse of Château is one of its two slate-roofed towers beside a gate bearing the date 1627.
The house is arranged over two floors. The ground floor is defined by its spacious kitchen where the original flagstone floor and carved stone fireplace are complemented by vintage furniture. The connected lounge has the original stone fireplace. All ground-floor rooms are dual aspect and open directly to the private walled garden and courtyard.
There is potential to create a downstairs bathroom and further bedroom.
The spiral stone staircase leads up to four generous bedrooms; the master suite with its original plaster ceiling rose has an en-suite shower room. You could create a furter upstairs bedroom if required.(with permissions)
The house has been carefully renovated by local artisans to maintain original charm whilst bringing it into the 21st century with insulation throughout, central heating (air/water heat pump), and wooden double glazing.
To the west, a fully enclosed courtyard is flanked by three vast well-maintained stone barns with ample storage room, stabling and workshops. A bijou cottage awaits renovation. Equestrian paddocks with direct barn access wrap three sides, while the 3ha woodland with mature oaks is across the lane.
The peace you discover here hides the fact that it is just 2 minutes from the local station, and a short drive from local towns, with great transport links by road, rail and air.
