Charming village house

Charming village house

Pretty 3-bedroom stone cottage in heart of a sought-after village near Jarnac.

This pretty cottage in an attractive village has been well restored to provide spacious, comfortable living accommodation that would be ideal as a holiday home or principal residence.

Ground floor

The front door opens into a large farmhouse-style kitchen (25 sq m) with tiled floor, beamed ceiling, attractive fitted kitchen units and an island unit. From the kitchen a door leads into the living room (25 sq m). This room has a tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling, glazed doors to the courtyard and a traditional stone Charentaise fireplace with wood-burning stove.

From here a doorway opens into a room currently used as a study (10 sq m - tiled floor, beamed ceiling) off which is a shower room and a bedroom (approximately 12 sq m with independent access to the courtyard).

First floor

The wooden staircase in the living room leads up to the first floor landing, off which are two double bedrooms and a spacious bathroom (bath, shower, wash-basin and WC).

Outside

To the front of the property is a small courtyard offering outside space as well as a covered dining area. Accessible from the courtyard is a garage which also houses the oil-fired central heating boiler and oil-tank. This building also has a mezzanine floor, and therefore offers the possibility of extending the upstairs living accommodation.

The house is in one of the most attractive villages in the area (and subsequently very sought-after with properties rarely becoming available through agents). The village itself has most of the facilities needed for day-to-day living - corner shop, boulangerie, butcher and health centre. In addition to this, the market town of Jarnac is just 8km away with all the facilities of a larger town including a supermarket.
