Full Description


Situated in the heart of a charming and peaceful village, a 15-minute drive from the shops and restaurants of Rouillac, this delightful, south-facing Charentais property combines generous living space with character features and understated charm. With good-sized rooms, high ceilings and solid wooden floors throughout, the house has been sympathetically renovated, bringing back much of its original character.

The front door opens into a hallway from which there is access to a small lobby area and the formal dining room beyond, complete with ornate ceiling cornice and mouldings, wooden wainscoting and magnificent, red marble fireplace. Across the hall is a comfortable living room, leading into a large and light kitchen. On the ground floor there is also a shower/laundry-room and a separate WC.
A handsome wooden staircase, typical of the region, leads to the expansive landing from which there is access to four rooms - three of which are bedrooms (one with an en suite shower room) and one requiring complete renovation.
A second staircase rises to the full-height attic, which extends across the whole of the house and also a small attached house (the same applies to the cellar space). This offers great potential for expansion (subject to the necessary permissions).

Some 60 or so metres from the house, there is a delightful, private courtyard space. However, the small attached house could be partially demolished to create a bespoke high-walled, low-maintenance garden with direct access from the house (subject to the necessary permissions).

The once fortified and buzzing city of Angoulême, with its fast rail links to Paris and Bordeaux, is just 30 minutes away, making this property makes a perfect lock-up and leave holiday home for those seeking a characterful house with the potential to be so much more.
