Hidden away in the midst of a tiny hamlet – with just three other owners – this lovely cottage is ready to live in. Currently used as a holiday home, it would make the perfect retreat for someone looking for peace and tranquility without the ‘high maintenance’ of a huge garden. The barn could make a perfect garage/workshop, with plenty of space above to create extra accommodation.
Entrance is directly into the long, fitted kitchen with its own breakfast bar. Off here is a modern shower room with WC. There is a large open-plan living/dining room, with an attractive fireplace and wood burner. The final downstairs room could be a single bedroom, study, or dining room. A carpeted staircase leads up to a landing and two double bedrooms with exposed beams.
The garden is to the front and side of the house, partly laid to gravel, part lawn. The large barn, which has a new roof, can be accessed from either the property entrance or the end of the garden.
The hamlet is just ten minutes from the bustling market town of Ruffec which offers a full range of commerce and facilities: bars, restaurants, shops, hypermarkets, public swimming pool, TGV station with direct service to Paris, a hospital, open-air market and a lively pavement café culture. © |
