Property Details
MAIN CHARACTERISTICS
FULL DESCRIPTION
Set in the heart of the Charente countryside, surrounded by rolling vineyards and golden sunflower fields, this beautifully renovated property offers charm, space, and remarkable versatility—perfect for an extended family home, luxurious holiday retreat, or income-generating estate.
The main house boasts seven bedrooms arranged over three character-filled levels. On the ground floor, a large, light-filled kitchen/diner, a charming conservatory, and a spacious beamed salon offer generous and inviting living spaces. There are also two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a large utility/laundry room.
Upstairs, the elegant master suite features a luxurious Victorian-style roll top bath, with two further bedrooms and a family shower room. The original elm staircase leads to the top floor, home to two more beamed bedrooms, a large shower room, and a peaceful reading nook with truly breathtaking views across the Charentais countryside.
The current owners have lovingly restored the ancient pigeonnier to create a charming independent guest suite, complete with kitchen, sitting room, and shower room on the ground floor and a cosy bedroom tucked under the eaves— ideal for guests or holiday rentals (possible gite business - subject to necessary permissions).
Within the extensive grounds of nearly a hectare (approx. 2.5 acres) lies a partially renovated stone house, almost transformed into a spacious one-bedroom cottage offering the possibility of further accommodation or letting potential. There’s also a very large barn, ideal for storage or future development (subject to any necessary permissions).
At the heart of the outdoor space is the superb 10m x 5m swimming pool, perfectly positioned to take full advantage of the expansive, uninterrupted views over the surrounding countryside. Truly, paradise found.
Perfectly situated just 15 minutes from the picturesque village of Aubeterre-sur-Dronne, officially one of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France, with its stunning monolithic church and sandy river beach. The bustling village of Saint-Séverin, with shops, restaurants, and banking services, is just 5 minutes away, while the vibrant market towns of Chalais and Ribérac are within a 20-minute drive.

LOCAL AREA
The Charente department is the south-eastern part of the Aquitaine-Limousin-Poitou-Charentes region of west-central France. One of the original 83 departments created during the French Revolution, the Charente is known for its peacefulness, unspoiled countryside and the towns of Cognac and Angouleme. The west of the department is dominated by the undulating vineyards of the cognac area, the north by striking rolling fields and woodland. To the north east is its hills and darkly-wooded forests, filled with Limousin cattle.
