Beautiful renovated 5 bed character village home, a second house to renovate, outbuildings and garden

• Two houses
• 5 bedroom character home
• Excellent location
• Outbuilding

This grand village character home offers great scope, as it comes with a second spacious house to internally renovate (subject to any necessary permissions), outbuildings including a barn and a garage, a garden and also the potential of creating an income as previously the property has been successfully run as a bed and breakfast.

The main house has an entrance hall leading off to the right to a stunning highly specified/equipped kitchen including Bosch double ovens, an induction hob and off the rear of the kitchen is a walk-in larder. The kitchen also has patio doors leading out to the beautiful courtyard which is a great spot for alfresco dining. Beyond the kitchen is a very airy/light sitting room (with a log burner) with views over the pretty courtyard. To the left hand side of the entrance hall is a WC, an office, a dining room with wood flooring and a fireplace/insert wood burner. At the end of the entrance hall is a large room (with utilities in place) which could be a downstairs bedroom, a laundry room and a light lounge/library with large patio doors leading out to the courtyard with a large covered terrace. From the side of the lounge is the staircase leading up to 3 very well presented double bedrooms all with well equipped ensuite shower rooms/WCs. These bedrooms have been used prior for the bed and breakfast business lets.

The second staircase, located off the main entrance hall, leads up to the principle bedroom with a large storage cupboard, a shower room/WC and then on the second floor is an office which could be another bedroom. Off the office is a large storage room which again has the potential of being further habitable space if required.

To the rear of the main house is a large courtyard with a fantastic covered terrace, a large barn with a first floor and a good sized workshop.

The second house (to be internally renovated) is steeped with character features. The property is comprised of an entrance hall and two large rooms (one of which has a stunning flagstone floor). On the first floor there is three rooms which could make two large bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is also a large attic space across the entire property.

To the front of the property is a courtyard with a gated entrance, some small outbuildings and a garage. To the rear of the property is a large garden which goes across the rear of both properties so if applicable the land could be split (subject to neccessary permissions) so each house has its own rear garden with a separate access from the village lane.

Whilst the property is set in a peaceful/pretty hamlet it is only 10 mins from the town of Ruffec and a only 45 minutes from the city of Angouleme. Ruffec offers supermarkets, restaurants, shops, etc. There are two airports within 50 minutes and the train station (which links to London) is only minutes away. Great location.
