Handsome and spacious village house with 4 bedrooms and courtyard garden
Situated in the heart of a charming and peaceful village, a 15-minute drive from the shops and restaurants of Rouillac, this delightful, south-facing Charentais property combines generous living space with character features and understated charm. With good-sized rooms, high ceilings and solid wooden floors throughout, the house has been sympathetically renovated, bringing back much of its original character.
The front door opens into a hallway from which there is access to a small lobby area and the formal dining room beyond, complete with ornate ceiling cornice and mouldings, wooden wainscoting and magnificent, red marble fireplace. Across the hall is a comfortable living room, leading into a large and light kitchen. On the ground floor there is also a shower/laundry-room and a separate WC.
A handsome wooden staircase, typical of the region, leads to the expansive landing from which there is access to four rooms - three of which are bedrooms (one with an en suite shower room) and one requiring complete renovation.
A second staircase rises to the full-height attic, which extends across the whole of the house and also a small attached house (the same applies to the cellar space). This offers great potential for expansion (subject to the necessary permissions).
Some 60 or so metres from the house, there is a delightful, private courtyard space. However, the small attached house could be partially demolished to create a bespoke high-walled, low-maintenance garden with direct access from the house (subject to the necessary permissions).
The once fortified and buzzing city of Angoulême, with its fast rail links to Paris and Bordeaux, is just 30 minutes away, making this property makes a perfect lock-up and leave holiday home for those seeking a characterful house with the potential to be so much more.

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.
