Charming French masion de maître with endless potential
A wonderful opportunity to acquire a traditional French maison de maître steeped in character and brimming with potential. Nestled in the heart of the sought-after golden triangle between the historic towns of Saintes, Cognac, and soon-to-be spa town of St Jean d’Angély, this property is perfectly positioned for both private living and potential commercial ventures.
This enchanting residence has preserved many of its original features, offering a glimpse into its elegant past. You’ll find period fireplaces, beautifully panelled cupboards, classic tiled and stone floors, and architectural charm throughout. A hidden staircase concealed behind wood panelling leads to the former servants' quarters — a delightful nod to the property’s rich history.
The estate also boasts over 450m² of outbuildings, waiting to be transformed with a creative touch. These spaces offer endless possibilities, from bespoke guest accommodation to a unique venue for weddings or themed holidays (subject to the necessary permissions).
For those seeking more land, there is the added option to purchase 17,269m² of adjoining land to the rear of the property — ideal for expanding the grounds, an equestrian venture or developing further amenities.
With its unique character, enviable location and scope for development, this manor house represents a rare and exciting investment in the heart of southwest France.

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.
