The owners of this spacious house have some of the lowest water bills around thanks to a handy pump that allows them to source all their water from the local well. It tastes OK too, so if you are looking to start the good life this property can provide you with lots of garden, useful outbuildings, comfortable living space and free water on tap for all you needs.
Like all old farmhouses, you can enter direct into the kitchen or into the true hallway off which is a newly fitted shower room and WC. The kitchen needs a makeover, but is a good size from which you can also access the attached barn and garage. The house has two large living rooms that are next to each other. Both have fireplaces, exposed beams and windows both sides. Upstairs are the four double bedrooms, benefiting from being recently decorated and having new carpets. They have exposed beams and views overlooking the fields. There is also an upstairs bathroom and separate WC.
The outdoor space really compliments the interior. The attached barn has the central heating boiler which can run on both wood and oil. The floor has been concreted and there is plenty more storage here, if needed. There is space to develop the platform area above and also above the adjacent garage. The gardens extend down beyond the front of the house to a large vegetable plot, a chicken coop and then a lawn area with established trees. Nearby, up the lane, is a separate orchard. Finally the owner has more storage and workshop space in the stone sheds opposite the barn. The whole property is well presented and ready to move into.
Blanzay is 3 kms away with a small shop, bakery and restaurant. The market town of Civray is ten minutes drive for all your weekly needs. Poitiers is forty five minutes for international air and train links.
