Description:

Just 200 metres from the Charente river, only 10 minutes from the thriving town of Cognac, and 15 minutes from the Roman town of Saintes, this very special 4 bed/2 bath cottage has been lovingly and stylishly renovated to provide almost all of the accommodation to the first floor with superb views over the stunning "secret" and very private garden. The large and extremely comfortable sitting room with its wonderful open fire, leads into the bright country style kitchen with huge picture window and stairs to the garden. Still on the first floor are 3 good sized bedrooms - one with balcony overlooking the garden - 2 pretty bathrooms, and a conservatory which opens on to the newly built terrace with views across the neighbouring stone properties towards the river. The ground floor boasts a large, sound-proof music room with direct access to the garden, which with just a little work could become a self-contained studio apartment. The perfectly private gardens, like the house itself, are on different levels and when you reach the top level, the view over to the Charente river is breathtaking. This property is completely unique, and really MUST be seen to be appreciated! Perfect as a main residence, or easily managed as a holiday home - just move in, unpack and start enjoying French life! Beaches just 45 minutes and trains and motorway network just 10 minutes away.
