Elegant Village-Edge Residence with Guest Cottage and Countryside Views
EXCLUSIVE TO BEAUX VILLAGES! Set on the edge of a charming village, this appealing property enjoys uninterrupted south-facing views across rolling countryside. It comprises a substantial main house, a beautifully renovated guest cottage, extensive outbuildings, a sheltered courtyard, a walled garden, and generous grounds.
Conveniently located within walking distance of the village centre and its local shop, the property is just 8km from the lively market town of Rouillac and 22km from Angoulême, with its TGV station offering swift connections to Paris and beyond.
The Main House
The front door opens into a spacious entrance hall, distinguished by its feature “Y” split staircase, with useful storage and a cloakroom beneath.
- To the right, a large sitting and dining room with fireplace offers views over the garden and countryside, with direct access to the courtyard.
- To the left, a welcoming kitchen-diner with wood-burning stove and generous larder provides an ideal space for family meals and entertaining.
Upstairs, the landing leads to three well-proportioned double bedrooms and a shower room.
Outside, a pretty walled garden lies to the front, while a covered dining terrace to the side enjoys open views on three sides – perfect for relaxed outdoor living.
The Guest Cottage
Tastefully modernised by the current owner, the cottage offers independent accommodation for family, friends, or potential holiday lets (possible gite - subject to necessary permissions).
- The front door opens into a bright living and dining room with fitted kitchen and log-burning stove.
- Doors lead to the attached covered parking area.
- Upstairs, the first-floor landing serves two double bedrooms, a dressing room, and a shower room with WC.
Outbuildings and Grounds
Several outbuildings surround the courtyard, providing excellent storage and scope for conversion (subject to permissions).
The gardens extend to the side and front of the property, with fine southerly views across the countryside, offering both privacy and tranquillity.
Practical Details
The property is connected to mains drainage. While the main house would benefit from some updating, it presents an excellent opportunity to create a comfortable permanent residence or a second home with income potential.
Early viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the setting, versatility, and charm of this property.

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.
