More and more Brits are realising that the French love affair with bungalows of this kind don’t just make financial sense but offer you a practical, low maintenance lifestyle too. This example sits head and shoulders above others of its kind with attractive, up to date interior fittings.
Set back from a quiet country lane on the edge of a sleepy hamlet, the house is reached via a driveway and the formal front garden. There are beige, traditional floor tiles throughout the property, starting in the main open plan kitchen and living area. The newly fitted kitchen has a work top separating it from the lounge area and to the right is a dining table and a wood burning stove. Making your way along the corridor there are three good-sized double bedrooms and a well-equipped modern bathroom (with bath, shower and double sink.) There is a separate toilet and a practical storeroom.
The property has large double garage and to the rear of the kitchen is a useful utility area with plenty of storage space and the oil- fired boiler.
The nearby village has a grocery/bar and the market town of Lezay is less than ten minutes drive away. The house is near the road from Melle to Sauze Vaussais, both market towns providing the full range of shops, bars, restaurants, schools and traditional open-air markets. Poitiers is 40 minutes drive away with its train and air links.
