To the side of the living room a door opens to a room which is currently used as a store room / ironing room and which also houses the mains gas-fired central heating boiler. From here a door opens to the attached barn.

First floor

A wooden staircase rises from the sitting room to a spacious first floor mezzanine landing (16 sq m) with wooden floor, exposed beam ceiling and an attractive stone fireplace - this area is currently used as a pleasant reading / relaxing area.

Off the landing are three double bedrooms (27 sq m, 22 sq m and 16 sq m). The smaller bedroom has "his and hers dressing areas". From this bedroom a door opens to a shower room (shower and wash-basin) from where another door opens to a WC which in turn has a door opening back onto the landing.

Also off the landing are a store/dressing room (10 sq m) and a bathroom (bath, shower and twin wash-basins).

Cellar

A door from the terrace to the rear opens to a flight of steps that lead down to the cellar.

Exterior

The house sits on a plot of 2268 sq m. To the front of the house is the walled entrance courtyard and to the side and rear is the garden - with lawns, mature trees, shrubs and flower borders. Beyond the terrace to the rear is the swimming pool. To one side of the courtyard is the barn (which provides useful storage space as well as parking). Next to this is a small studio - ideal as an office / workshop / craft room. The covered entrance also provides a shaded parking area.

This is an attractive stone house in a village with amenities not far from the pretty towns of Cognac and Jarnac.
