Beautiful Gated 4 Bed Charentaise House with its own former Windmill set in enclosed courtyard & gardens on the edge of a friendly village. A wonderfully spacious family home with a swimming pool and a large selection of outbuildings offering further conversion possibilities and income potential. A peaceful setting but close to several major towns and all facilities.
The Entrance Hall (11 sq m) has a terracotta tiled floor and original staircase leading to the upper level. At the rear of the Hallway a door to an internal hallway off of which is another larger room and a workshop. Because the larger room opens to the rear courtyard garden there is the potential to convert this to an office or other accommodation. Here, between the two rear rooms, is housed a large wine cellar with decorative wrought iron gates.
To the right of the Hallway is the very large, airy Sitting Room (42 sq m) with a double aspect to the courtyard. Exposed beams, wooden floor and original Charentaise decorative fireplace with log burner.
To the left an equally spacious ** Kitchen /Dining Room ( 42sq m) The floors are tiled and the fireplace has a log burner . The bright, modern kitchen with breakfast area is divided from the Dining Area by a peninsular and there is a small, comfortable sitting area around a marble fireplace, ideal for after dinner coffee.
To the left of the kitchen a door to the summer kitchen and utility area which in turn leads to the main courtyard. Off this room is shower room with facilities for a washing machine
** The dishwasher / Fridge-Freezer / range cooker are to stay ** All windows have roll down insect screens for the summer
First floor
An original wooden staircase leads to the landing / corridor currently with a library area. Off of this are four large, airy bedrooms (25 sq m, 20 sq m, 18.5 sq m and 16 sq m)
All bedrooms overlook the courtyard and surrounding area and are bright and in good decorative order. The master bedroom has an interconnecting door with the adjacent bedroom so could become a private suite. Two of the bedrooms have fireplaces and there is a shower room at one end of the corridor and a bathroom at the other. All rooms are in a good decorative condition.
** All windows have roll down insect screens for the summer **Furniture in Master Bedroom is not for sale but all other bedroom furniture is negotiable

Garden & Outbuildings
There are approx 260 sq m of stone outbuildings. Some have been used for storage and garaging but the others facing the main house could be easily converted to additional accommodation or gites (subject to relevant permissions) .
To the front of the house is a gravelled area with a small grassed eating area. A walled garden with vegetable plot is to the right , behind the house and the main walled garden with lawn to the rear houses a large, above ground terraced swimming pool which is heated by solar power. There is also the potential to develop a mezzanine eating area with a seating area below in one of the smaller outbuildings overlooking the rear garden & pool. Some interesting original stone work remains in this garden.

The Windmill
A former windmill is a romantic and quirky addition to this lovely property and is currently put to good use for family parties - both winter & summer. It has been properly renovated and has a log burner and staircase to all three floors.
