This property really could be your flexible friend. It can be lived in straight away, offering a small, but comfortable two bedroom cottage (on the right of main photo). However, it also has an attic and is attached to a large barn with electricity, new staircase and concrete floors; so the option is there to expand or create a second house. If the secluded walled garden is not large enough for you then there is an extra plot of land opposite which the owners are willing to include. In other words, both inside and out, there is as much as you like here.
The cottage has a hallway with flagstone floor, while all the other rooms have modern laminate flooring. The open-plan kitchen/living room has a modern oven, sink and work units. A door leads into the back garden. There are two bedrooms and a shower room with WC. The attic is reached via an external staircase. The attached barn has two ground floor rooms with concrete floor and an open-plan second storey. The barn roof will need replacing but is otherwise in excellent condition.
The walled garden is completely private and contains a useful stone storage shed. There is also that piece of land of about half an acre, opposite the property, which the owners are willing to provide.
The sleepy hillside hamlet has views over the countryside yet is only a two minute drive from both a railway station and the main road to Poitiers and Angouleme, offering easy access to four international airports and the ferry ports.
