1. Comfortable versatile and spacious home interior
From the front door of the house, you enter a welcoming hallway leading to the spacious library/multipurpose room, ideal as an additional living space, a playroom, or a media lounge. On the left you enter the first spacious bedroom. A corridor provides access to the other two generously sized bedrooms, and opens to the impressive open-plan living area.
The main living area is a stunning open-plan 80 m2 space, including kitchen, dining and living area, reminiscent of a New York loft, with high ceilings, exposed wooden beams, and very large glass windows that flood the space with natural light. A wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and coziness, while panoramic views of the river and surrounding countryside create a truly breathtaking atmosphere. The living area opens seamlessly onto a 25m2 terrace perched on stilts above the barn roof, perfect for enjoying morning coffee or alfresco dining while being surrounded by the breathtaking river views high over the river Vienne and over the unfolding pasture lands of the property.
The large shared bathroom is adjacent to the bedrooms, and there is a separate guest WC near the living area. A practical storage and laundry area, which can be converted into a fifth bedroom with an ensuite, providing direct indoor access to the garage—perfect for convenience on rainy days.
A true highlight of this home is the expansive private mezzanine-level master suite that blends modern elegance with rustic charm:
Vaulted ceilings with skylights, allowing an abundance of natural light.
Exposed wooden beams, adding warmth and character.
A private lounge area, perfect as a reading nook or workspace.
A sleek ensuite bathroom, featuring a glass-enclosed rainfall shower, double sinks, and contemporary finishes. For additional privacy, this suite can be combined with a downstairs sitting room (currently used as a home office), creating a fully self-contained guest suite with a separate entrance.
2. Energy efficiency and connectivity
The residence is featuring a modern heat pump heating system and shows impressive energy efficiency (Energy rating B, emissions A). Estimated annual energy costs range from €1,390 to €1,910, making it both environmentally and financially sustainable. The woodburner has mainly aesthetic role. The property benefits from fast fibre internet.
3. Expansive Grounds & Riverside Serenity
With 2.47 hectares (24,730m2) of private land and a private river frontage, the estate is a haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. The River Vienne runs along the property, offering a picturesque setting with opportunities for fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, aquaculture farming, or even adding a water mill for sustainable energy. The well elevated pasture land following the river, the lush gardens and rolling fields provide an ideal space for outdoor entertaining, gardening, and for keeping horses or other animals.
4. Outbuildings & Development Potential
The garage/outbuilding space under the hose, offers room for two cars plus storage, with beautiful wooden garage doors and extra parking space in front. A wine cellar & storage spaces are perfect for future expansion.
A spacious barn/stable is ideal for conversion to accommodate 2-6 horses, or to be used as a large event hall, or to be transformed into a stylish additional living space.
The pool area near the house is ready for installation of a large above the ground pool with wooden deck. There are raised bed gardens with potential for expansion.
5. Prime location with many tourism-related and other business opportunities
Located in the outskirts of Lessac is a picturesque village in the Charente, known for its serene landscapes and welcoming community, 5 minutes from Confolens, a vibrant town with all essential amenities, and within easy reach of Limoges and Poitiers airports, this property is well-connected yet perfectly secluded. The closest train station in Ruffec provides direct links to major cities, making travel effortless, but you also have the train stations in Limoges and Saint-Junien with TGVs (fast trains) linking you to all major cities in France and Europe.
The Charente region is highly sought after by second-home buyers and expats, known for its friendly locals and strong international community. Whether you’re looking for a family home, a holiday retreat, or a business venture, this riverside estate in Lessac offers unmatched beauty, privacy, and potential.
