Description
Situated in a small hamlet of just eight houses, this charming character property enjoys a hillside position, with great views, overlooking the beautiful French countryside, just a short walk from the Charente River.
On entering the house, there is an entrance hall leading to a downstairs bathroom/wc. To the right of the hallway is a very spacious living room with immense character with a fireplace/log burner and to the rear is a dining area. Adjacent to the living room is the fully equipped kitchen, which opens onto a balcony, providing the perfect setting for al fresco dining, barbecues or simply enjoying the stunning beautiful views.
Upstairs, there are three double spacious bedrooms, including one with an en-suite shower room/wc, as well as a spacious landing currently used as a library. Many of the furnishings are included in the sale by the current owner.
Attached to the house is a three-storey tower, which offers exciting potential for conversion into additional living accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions.
At the lower end of the property, there is a large garage/workshop which could be used as an art studio or pool house should you choose to install a swimming pool. Alternatively, there is plenty of space for growing your own vegetables.
The property has a pretty mature garden which again benefits from the fantastic views of the surrounding countryside.
The roof was newly installed in 2023 and the property benefits from being connected to the mains drainage and fibre internet.
The property is about a ten-minute drive from the charming and welcoming market town of Charroux, which offers everyday amenities such as shops, a bakery, a café, a restaurant, a pharmacy, and a weekly market. The larger town of Civray is less than 20 minutes away, offering further services and amenities. The larger towns of Angoulême and Poitiers are easily accessible, offering TGV stations, numerous shops, and cultural activities.
Châtain is a small, peaceful rural village located in the south of the Vienne department, near the border with the Charente department. Surrounded by rolling hills, fields, woods, and quiet country lanes, the area offers a peaceful and authentic setting typical of southwest France.
Combining rural tranquillity with convenient access to local amenities, this property enjoys a highly sought-after location with stunning views, ideal for those who wish to enjoy the charm of the French countryside while remaining well-connected to nearby towns.
