Montbron (Charente) - Attractive 5/6..

A stunning location for this 5/6 bedroom house with everything you might want from a home in France - spectacular views, plenty of space all around you, privacy and tranquility, a swimming pool and even your own grape vines!

The house itself was built in 1974 and would undoubtedly benefit from some updating and redecoration but otherwise it has been maintained in excellent condition. The house sits in an elevated position in the middle of the 4.5 acre plot with a sweeping driveway leading up from electronically controlled gates. It faces to the south-west with magnificent views over the beautiful Charente countryside towards the town of Montbron, is filled with natural light and benefits from oil fired central heating.

It is a traditional sous sol style property with the main living accommodation on the first floor. An Entrance Hall leads through to the cosy Lounge with wood burning stove and French Windows opening onto the south-west facing terrace. The Lounge is Open through to the Dining Room which has windows to two aspects.

Off the central Hallway is a useful Utility Room, three double Bedrooms (two with French Windows opening into the garden, a Bathroom and separate W.C.

An enclosed staircase leads up to the converted attic space where there are two further Bedrooms and a Shower Room with toilet.

In the Sous Sol there is a Garage although the current owners have a different use for the space - this is their bar and games room! They make their own wine from the grapes grown on the property and this is stored in the Wine Cave. There is also a large Storage Room (which could easily provide a 6th Bedroom) along with Workshop which contains the Viessmann central heating boiler.

The grounds are split into distinct areas:.to the front is a parkland garden filled with Lavender beds and mature shrubs and trees:.to the rear is a vegetable garden along with the swimming pool which sits alongside a pool house with built in barbecue. There are wild flower meadows to two sides, an orchard with a variety of fruit trees, the vines producing the wine making grapes plus vines growing eating grapes. There is a wooden barn which is attached to a children's playhouse and also a covered store for the firewood.

The town of Montbron is just 3km away and has supermarkets, banks, doctors, plus all the local shops and facilities that you would expect. Kayaking is available on the River Tardoire whilst golfers will enjoy the International Golf course at La Preze, just 10 minutes away.
