Description

Located 30 minutes from Angoulême, this exceptional property offers absolute privacy and calm. Secluded away behind high walls, its 2.3 ha of leafy land is crossed by a tributary of the Charente, giving it a unique character. The property originally dates back to the 12th century, when it formed the lower gardens of a neighbouring castle. This renovated abode now comprises the main house, dating from this period, as well as later additions. Featuring remarkable period features throughout, the main house presents a large living room with mezzanine, a dining room, a separate kitchen and 5 bedrooms with private bathrooms. An early 20th century guest house (also renovated) offers a living room, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Several outbuildings. Very large garage. Pool area (heated), detached from the buildings. Option to purchase an additional 8 hectares of land beyond the walls. Full of character. In perfect condition throughout.
