All the “grunt” work has been done, now is the time to titivate the interior to your choice. However, you may be tempted to leave it as it is and enjoy the suntrap patio or just sit with a glass of wine and breath in the view.
Entrance to the house is from the patio into either the kitchen, fully fitted and equipped, or the large living dining room. Here we have exposed oak beams, stone walls, stone fireplace and ancient sink, and a large wood-burning stove. The stairs take you to the two double bedrooms and bathroom, and a large room that would make the third bedroom. The one lowish beam gives this house the cottage description! Next door is the barn and the possibility of extending the accommodation into it. The floor is already concreted ready for the next stage.
Externally, the house has been re-pointed throughout, and the roof renewed. There is a new septic tank and all the electrics and plumbing have been renewed. There is a further barn at the end with its attractive hay loft and further accommodation possibilities. The land is in front and to the side of the house.
In a pretty village it is close to either Chef Boutonne or Melle for all your shopping needs. © |
