Property Description

Our ref- AI4468
This lovely property is situated at the edge of a hamlet, with views over open countryside, yet it is walking distance from a bakery, post office and a popular bar/restaurant. It has been run as a gîte complex for those seeking peace and tranquillity, as it makes a wonderful retreat
The main building comprises a renovated farmhouse and an attached former barn which has been beautifully converted to provide additional accommodation. The flexible layout means that it is possible to switch between a generous family home with 4 bedrooms to a private house with 2 bedrooms, plus a 2-bedroom gîte, simply by locking or unlocking a door. There is a further separate gîte with 1 bedroom situated across the courtyard plus a range of outbuildings offering additional potential, subject to planning consents
The total plot size is 5954m2 (around 1.4 acres) and the completely attached land includes a pretty courtyard, with plenty of space for parking, gardens with fruit and nut trees, a vegetable garden, a meadow with a separate access from the lane, and an area of woodland
The property is ideally situated for both Ruffec (11km) and Civray (12km), where you will find all day to day amenities, including healthcare and leisure facilities. The nearest international airports are at Poitiers (68km) and Limoges (90km)
This property really must be seen to appreciate the location, immediate possibilities and future potential
