The front façade of this property is set back from the main road leading into Civray. However, a second access takes you directly to the back garden and garage, situated in a sleepy cul-de-sac. The house was built in 1968 in stone and if a two bedroom house is not enough for you then there is a large sous-sol (ground floor basement) for you to expand the current accommodation.
An entrance hall leads off to a fitted kitchen which is large enough to eat in but needs modernising. The heart of the property is the dual aspect, L-shaped living/dining room with its insert fireplace. There are two double bedrooms, a WC and a bathroom which – like the kitchen – one may wish to modernise. An internal staircase leads down to the sous-sol where there is a large garage, boiler room and wine cellar.
The front garden is hedged and contains mature trees. There is a patio looking down from the first floor. The back garden also contains established bushes, trees, and hedges.
Is Civray a village or tiny market town? With a population of just 2,000 I would say village yet it has the wide range of commerce usually found in towns. The riverside setting makes it picturesque and there is a range of shops, bars, restaurants, supermarkets, weekly open-air market, cinema, summer lido, park and a pavement café culture in the summer. © |
