This impressive contemporary property is set in mature gardens and has a light and airy interior.

In a popular village close to Cognac, the house is a short walk to the village shops. There is a parking area in front of the stone gates to the property as well as access to the double garage behind the house.

The main gate opens into the lovely front garden - this is laid mainly to lawn but is stocked with mature shrubs and trees and there is a large patio dining area.

House

Ground floor

Steps lead up to the front door - this opens into a 16m2 entrance hall - to the right double doors open into the 35m2 sitting room - this has a fireplace and two sets of doors out onto the terrace to the front of the house.

An arch opens through into the dining room (this has two windows that overlook the rear garden and pool) and a door opens into the 13.5m2 recently-fitted kitchen.

At the back of the entrance hall on the left is a downstairs cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin. There is also a door through to the kitchen.

A door from the kitchen leads down to a 12m2 summer kitchen / utility room (this has a range of fitted cupboards and appliances, a door out to the rear garden, a door down to the large basement and an arch that leads through to a large (20m2) room currently used as a bedroom - this has sliding glazed doors out to the terrace.

First floor

The stairs curve up from the entrance hall to the first floor landing - off this is a shower room with WC, the 24m2 master bedroom (with fitted cupboards) and a large bathroom (ensuite to the master bedroom too).

There is also a large mezzanine (11m2) that has a spiral staircase up to a 16m2 room in the "tower" - currently used as a children's games room.

A corridor leads off the landing to three further bedrooms (24m2, 14m2 and 7m2) plus a useful store room (15m2) as well as a shower room.

There is a central ventilation system that extracts air from the kitchen and bathrooms and also draws in fresh air to ventilate the bedrooms.

Basement

The basement is divided into a number of rooms including a laundry room, garage, workshop and storerooms.

Exterior

The house sits on a plot of 1981 sq m (just under 1/2 an acre). To the front of the house is a large paved terrace and a delightful landscaped garden with lawn, mature trees and shrubs. To the rear of the house is a lawn, to the side of which is the pool (9m x 4.5m with roman steps). Beyond this is a second area of garden next to which is a double garage.

The house benefits from double-glazing, mains drainage, mains gas central heating and, whilst the house has mains water, there is also a bore hole that can supply all the water.
