Majestic 3 Bedroom Country House, with..

I love gated entrances you never know what you will find behind them.........

Secure and private behind its electric gated entrance; with its spectacular vine canopied arbour leading to the main entrance door and its formal box tree gardens reminding me of the grandeur of Versailles; all this perfectly harmonising to give you the French dream at its very best.

Set in the village of Saint Ciers sue Bonnieure, this house (if the older inhabitants of the village are correct) used to be part of the old Abbey and the home of the Abbot; in the main living room; what is now a large cupboard is reputed to be the original door he used to access the abbey.

The village has a general store/bar/petrol station and the village of Saint-Angeau is only 2.5km's away which has commerce; but you are only 5km's from Mansle where you will find all the shops you need for everyday living and 10km from Luxe which has train links to Angouleme, Bordeaux and Poitiers; the latter having cross line connections to Paris, Bordeaux, London & Brussels.

The international airports at Limoges and Poitiers are both just over 1 hours drive; with daily flights to several UK destinations.

The current owners, bought the property in 1998 and have lovingly restored it over the years; but it does still have room for you to add your personal touches to its majestic charm.

The properties benefit from mains electricity and mains water; but the well water is free and can be used to the owners advantage! The house has partial double glazing and an oil fired central heating system; with radiators in all rooms. Broadband is available.
