Description
Set in the rolling countryside of southern Charente, between Aubeterre-sur-Dronne and Montmoreau, this character estate combines a substantial main residence, an independent guest house, a heated swimming pool, a private lake and over seven hectares of land. Arranged around a traditional courtyard, the property offers authentic architecture, extensive stone outbuildings and excellent family, rental or tourism potential.
The estate occupies a peaceful rural position between Aubeterre-sur-Dronne and Montmoreau. It combines privacy and countryside views with convenient access to shops, services, restaurants and some of the region's most attractive villages.
The main house offers generous accommodation, including two reception rooms with fireplaces, a large kitchen with a traditional Charentaise fireplace, five bedrooms and two bathrooms. Exposed beams, wide-board floors and an elm staircase with an original wrought-iron balustrade contribute to the property's distinctive character.
The detached guest house extends to approximately 60 sqm and has its own driveway and private garden. It includes a kitchen and living area, one bedroom, a separate sitting room that could serve as a second bedroom, and a bathroom. It is well suited to visiting family, friends or seasonal holiday letting.
The estate includes a heated swimming pool with open countryside views and a private lake of approximately one hectare, fed by a stream. The surrounding land includes meadows, mature trees and agricultural parcels, creating opportunities for a variety of rural uses.
The stone barns and outbuildings are positioned around the traditional courtyard and benefit from renovated roofs. Original features include a traditional bread oven. The buildings provide scope for storage, workshops, stabling, reception spaces or other uses, subject to the appropriate permissions.
The estate could serve as a permanent family residence, a second home, an equestrian property, a holiday-rental business or a chambres d'hôtes project. Its layout, acreage and range of buildings make it an unusually versatile property.
