Magnificent property to restore set in 6 hectares of parkland
Superbly situated property south of Angouleme in a sought-after location between the Charente and Dordogne rivers, off the main road. Accessed via a beautiful poplar-lined driveway leading to a walled entrance, beautiful wrought-iron gate, stone pillars, this authentic 1747 residence has preserved the essence of its original features.
After crossing the park in front of the house, the door opens onto an entrance hall leading to a large dining room, with the kitchen on the right and a study on the left. The dining room leads to a lounge and billiard room, each with a fireplace. There is a wine cellar - room that could be converted into a bathroom (subject to necessary permissions).
On the upper level, the staircase leads to a landing with 7 bedrooms and a shower room. There is access to a huge attic with beautiful beams.
The decoration of the rooms has remained unchanged for many years. Renovation work concerns electricity and insulation and the sanitation system and the existing heating system need to be reviewed.
In the grounds behind the house are some fine specimen trees - magnolia, oak, cedar - with distant views over the countryside.
Beautiful ensemble comprising :
Main house 460 m² of living space, attic suitable for conversion 250 m² - renovation works to be done
Caretaker's house 90 m² living space - attic suitable for conversion 65 m² - renovation works to be done
Small house with bread oven - 2 rooms 60 m² - to renovate
Pigpen 65 m² - Land 6 hectares
A gîte and bed and breakfast project could be envisaged with the addition of a swimming pool area (subject to necessary permissions and business registration) or simply a large family home. Renovation work is subject to necessary permissions.
Price including agency fees : 477 000 €
Price excluding agency fees : 450 000 €
Buyer commission, tax included: 6%

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.
