Beautifully renovated historic logis packed with character features
With roots possibly dating back to the late Middle Ages, this stunning property has been carefully renovated to create a luxury home that retains its original character features whilst providing all the comforts of a modern lifestyle.
Approached via a monumental crenellated gateway flanked by a tower, the logis sits in the heart of a small village just outside small town of Segonzac, capital of the prestigious Grande Champagne area of the Cognac vineyards. The larger towns of Jarnac and Cognac are just a short drive.
On the ground floor the house offers a very large double reception room with an impressive fireplace. From here a doorway opens to a vast kitchen / dining room with a double-height ceiling, bespoke fitted kitchen, travertine flooring, mood lighting and a door to the garden. Off this room are a generous cloakroom (with two separate WCs), the original entrace hall and the laundry / boiler room.
Wooden stairs rise from the kitchen to a mezzanine sitting area and a galleried landing. The guest bedroom has its own en suite luxury shower room. The master bedroom also has its own en suite shower room as well as a large dressing room. At the end of the landing a door opens to an enormous library with exposed beam ceiling and a wood-burning stove. The first floor layout suits the lifestyle of the current owner - there is great potential to create additional bedrooms (subject to necessary permissions).
Accessible from the kitchen and from the terrace to the front of the logis is a large vaulted former cellar - now used as a gym / reception space. To the back of this is a service station for food preparation - making the cellar ideal for formal receptions. Beyond this is the wine cellar.
The garden in mainly left to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and flower borders. The terrace runs along the front of the house. To one end of the terrace is a beautiful infinity swimming pool. In addition to this, a raised wooden terrace provides spectacular views over the vineyards. The property is believed to be one of the last remaining priories in France with an almost complete set of walls surrounding the domain, resulting in great privacy.
This exceptional property, in an exceptional location, currently used as a second home, would also make a superb principal residence - with income potential (subject to necessary permissions).

If this or other properties are of potential serious interest, you may wish to speak in confidence and without obligation or commitment with a sympathetic senior negotiator to discuss what flexibility there may be in the price.
Getting the right deal can be a question of good timing and we have that information.
Whatever you read in the press, it is simply not true that one can apply a percentage discount to the price of any property we like the look of. And it is a real shame to fall in love with a property that is beyond what you wish to spend or can afford.
