Full Description


Renovated to a high and environmentally friendly standard, this elegant family home sits in the heart of a popular small town and offers excellent potential as a gîte or rental property.

The house opens into a bright entrance hall with exposed beams and a bespoke staircase leading to a mezzanine landing. To one side is a characterful multimedia room with stone walls; to the other, a corridor leading to the kitchen. The spacious living room features a double-height ceiling, exposed stonework, and patio doors that open onto a walled courtyard garden. The adjoining kitchen and dining area includes a fireplace, beamed ceiling and direct access to the garden, with a pantry and secondary staircase nearby.

Upstairs, the landing leads to a family bathroom, separate WC and a suite of two rooms, ideal as a bedroom with adjoining study. Two further bedrooms and a large playroom complete this level, with a loft room above currently used as an office or hobby space. The cellar, accessed from the garden, provides good storage and houses the air-to-water heating system.

Attached to the main house, the guest accommodation offers an open-plan living area with kitchen corner and WC, plus two bedrooms and a shower room above—ideal for visitors or letting.

The property stands on a generous plot with lawns, mature trees, a pétanque pitch, and a walled courtyard garden featuring a covered terrace, plunge pool with jacuzzi, and stone outbuildings. A sweeping driveway leads to a covered gateway.

Energy-efficient and full of character, the home benefits from underfloor heating, double glazing, and a Canadian well ventilation system. All shops, cafés and amenities of this charming riverside market town are within easy walking distance.
