Elegant 13th-Century Country Estate with Woodland, Campsite & Outbuildings
Nestled on the peaceful border of Deux-Sèvres and Vendée, this remarkable 13th-century residence offers a rare combination of history, character, and modern comfort. Set within 3 hectares of gardens, land and woodland, a ready-to-use campsite, and extensive outbuildings—the property is in excellent condition and perfectly suited as a spacious family home, a welcoming guest retreat, or both.
Ground Floor
A grand living room with an imposing stone fireplace and underfloor heating—ideal for hosting banquets or dances.
A bright, airy lounge featuring an Invicta wood stove for cosy evenings.
A fully fitted kitchen with a central island, generous workspace, and ample room for entertaining.
Convenient downstairs toilet and access to a cellar for storage.
First Floor
Four bedrooms, two with private bathrooms, three with charming fireplaces and wood stoves.
Some bedrooms are currently arranged for bed and breakfast use, offering an immediate income opportunity (a future owner would need to obtain any appropriate business registration).
A family bathroom with bath, shower, sink, and toilet, plus an additional separate toilet.
Modern comforts include double glazing.
Outbuildings and Grounds
Several traditional stone outbuildings, with potential for conversion (subject to permissions).
A large enclosed courtyard, flanked by a dormitory and above ground pool on one side and a barn on the other, providing privacy and a quintessential French country setting.
A 500 m² farm building to the rear of the house, ideal as a workshop, storage space, or agricultural use.
A campsite with six ready-to-use placements, complete with a communal toilet and shower block, offering excellent potential for seasonal income (a future owner would need appropriate business registration).
Highlights
This estate seamlessly blends centuries-old charm with modern convenience. From its atmospheric fireplaces and wood stoves to its practical underfloor heating on the ground floor, it is a home ready for immediate enjoyment. Its layout and facilities also make it exceptionally well-suited for anyone seeking to run a guest business—whether as a bed and breakfast, campsite, or multi-purpose retreat—or simply enjoy an expansive and historic family home in the French countryside.

Discuss an Offer
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.
To arrange a callback, please email in-confidence@beauxvillages.com
