Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort
EXCLUSIVE TO BEAUX VILLAGES! Once a 17th-century chapel and orphanage, this exceptional property has been beautifully transformed into a spacious family home, blending historic character with modern, energy-efficient living.
Light-filled throughout, the home offers four generous bedrooms, including a master suite with walk-in wardrobe and en suite, a stylish guest suite, and two further large doubles with countryside views.
The former chapel, featuring stunning stained glass, now serves as a unique library/reading room with its own shower room — a truly standout space.
Designed for comfortable living and entertaining, the property includes a bright kitchen and dining area, cosy living room with wood burner, piano room, office, two utility rooms, and a ground-floor WC.
Eco features include photovoltaic panels, heat pump, thermodynamic hot water, gas central heating, and air-to-air heating/cooling for year-round comfort.
Outside, enjoy a covered terrace for al fresco dining, gardens leading to the river, plus an outbuilding and two garages/workshops. Peacefully located in a hamlet close to amenities.
A rare opportunity to own a distinctive, character-filled home.

Opening Hours
Monday to Friday 9am - 12pm, 2pm-6pmDiscuss an Offer
If this or other properties are of potential serious interest, you may wish to speak in confidence and without obligation or commitment with a sympathetic senior negotiator to discuss what flexibility there may be in the price.
Getting the right deal can be a question of good timing and we have that information.
Whatever you read in the press, it is simply not true that one can apply a percentage discount to the price of any property we like the look of. And it is a real shame to fall in love with a property that is beyond what you wish to spend or can afford.
