Pretty Stone House With Attached..

House:
Through the main front door there is a good size entrance hall (14 sq m), with exposed stone walls and beams. There is a useful utility / boot room (15 sq m) plus a separate ground floor WC. The large kitchen dining room (43 sq m) has a range of units and large stone feature fireplace with wood burner. In addition there is a spacious but cosy sitting room (25 sq m) also with a fireplace and white enamelled wood burner.

First Floor:
From the main entrance hall the original wooden staircase leads up to first floor landing (22 sq m).There are four bedrooms (26, 17, 12 and 13 sq m) plus a family bathroom (9 sq m) with bath, shower, hand wash basin and WC. Please note the flooring on the first floor requires finishing.

Outside:
Directly in front of the house is a gravelled courtyard providing ample outside dining space, plus opposite the house are a range of outbuildings. There is a open hanger (100 sq m approx.) ideal for parking, two barns (approx. 100 and 70 sq m), plus a number of smaller outbuildings for storage or as required. Attached to the far end of the main house is a small cottage for renovation (approx. 40 sq m footprint) - which would make ideal extra accommodation or small gite if needed, subject to relevant planning permissions.The garden is accessed through the hanger, has a pretty terrace set against the stone wall and a large expanse of lawn with variety of trees and shrubs - at the rear of the garden there are some lovely views of the valley beyond. The sale also includes a small additional land plot just opposite the main double gates - approx. 100 sq m with old outbuilding.

The larger village of Lizant (bakery / bar etc.) is a short drive away (5km approx.) the two larger market towns of Ruffec and Civray both approx. 12km from the house.

This property would make a lovely family home and has potential for further expansion for rental revenue if required..
