Full Description


Set in absolute privacy within approximately seven acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds, this exceptional manoir, gîte and independent apartment offer a rare blend of elegance, serenity and income potential. With no immediate neighbours and surrounded by rolling countryside and vineyards, the estate, a former Cognac distillery, provides complete tranquillity while remaining just a short drive from a lively village with shops, restaurants, schools and everyday amenities.

The Manoir:
Lovingly restored to preserve its authentic character, the main residence spans three generous floors, offering bright and refined living spaces throughout.
8 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, including 3 en-suite bedrooms (one of the bedrooms with en-suite is on the ground floor, ideal for guests or accessible living)

A self-contained apartment with a private entrance, consisting of 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom with shower, kitchen and living room making it perfect for extended family, guest accommodation or rental income (subject to the necessary permissions).

The Gîte:
Arranged on a single level, the gîte is equally inviting and well-appointed with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (1 en-suite), spacious living areas with a welcoming atmosphere and lovely private outdoor spaces.

Both properties have been successfully operated as a holiday rental business, providing excellent income potential. Any future owner wishing to continue this activity will need to reapply for the necessary permissions and business registration.

Outdoor Living:
The estate truly shines outdoors.
A beautifully renovated swimming pool finished with luminescent tiles, creating a magical evening glow
A large open barn, perfectly suited for al fresco dining and entertaining, equipped with electricity and toilet facilities for modern convenience. Whether hosting summer gatherings or enjoying peaceful evenings under the stars, the setting is simply exceptional.

The expansive grounds include manicured gardens, woodland borders and open views across fields and vineyards.

This rare turnkey estate offers the opportunity to combine the Charentaise lifestyle with an established business in one of France’s most sought after regions.
