This elegent, well presented property on the edge of a lively market town will attract those looking for the benefits of the French lifestyle but with the convenience of local amenities on their door step. Tucked back from the road you can have the sense of rural France but be just five minutes walk from the market squre.
The tiled hall way leads into the fitted kitchen with enough room for a dining table. However, continue through the house and you will find a lounge with a parquet wood floor and a further larger dining room with French windows for more formal entertaining. There is a downstairs double bedroom with an attractive bathroom adjacent. Up the winding oak staircase are the second and third ebdrooms, one of which has a "cabinet de toilette" or wash room attached that would easily convert into an upstairs bathroom.
The land surrounds the house and is mainly laid to grass with fruit trees and vines providing plenty of summer fruit. Part of the garden is walled and offers the owners complete privacy. There is also a garage with small workshop attached.
Ruffec lies on the river Charente and has all the shops, restaurants, and facilities you could wish for. It is well placed for TGV links to Paris and is an hours drive from Poitiers, Angouleme and Limoges airports.
