You will get a lot of property for your money with this pretty and practical cottage. Situated up a no through lane this home, whilst at present used as a holiday home, could be a smart move whether you intend to be here full-time or divide yourself between two residences.
This house is symmetrically laid out upstairs and down. The hall way has a living room with wood burning stove and tiled floor on your right. On the left is the tidy fitted kitchen with space for a dining table, although down a couple of steps is the more formal dining room that has been an addition built into the garage. There is a downstairs WC and small utility area with steps down to the cellar. The stairs go up to a carpeted landing offering four double bedrooms, two either side of the landing and a shower room. If you wanted some work to do you could update the bathroom, if desired.
In front of the house is a tiled courtyard, a real sun-trap, that also has a side door that goes into the garage with its new roof and cement floor. There is a small plot of land behind the property that has the gas tank. The land is just a hop across the lane and at present is lawn with hedge surround. You can access the garden from the road further down, if needed.
The hamlet is under 10 minutes drive from the market town of Lezay with its shops and summer lido. Poitiers is under an hour's drive away and has international travel links by train and air.
