If the sound of running water and a garden bordered on two sides by a stream appeals to you this solid village house could meet your requirements in terms of location. First, however there is some hard work to do updating and possibly expanding the existing property.
The present living accommodation consists of a kitchen and adjoining living room, both with fireplaces and tiled floors. Also on the ground floor and not that conveniently located off a rear corridor is the WC and bathroom. The corridor gives access to the rear of the property where there is a large attached hangar and private garden. Upstairs are 3 rooms, the smaller of which would probably better suit a bathroom than a bedroom.
The attached stables are ideal if you wish further space and there is a sweet one-up one-down house to the side of the front garden which could be converted into simple guest accommodation. There is a further outbuilding attached to the hangar and the front garden is walled and as private as the land behind.
The village is 4 kms from a good selection of shops in Briox-sur-Boutonne and the historic market town of Melle is 12 kms distance. Nearest airports are Poitiers, Angoulême and La Rochelle.
