This character French cottage is to be found in a peaceful Charente hamlet close to the famous village of Aubeterre-sur-Dronne, officially classified as one of the most beautiful villages in France.
Entering the property through the sun-lounge, which also includes an adjacent downstairs shower and wc, one steps into the extremely welcoming double height galleried family living room at the centre of the home complete with exposed beams, pointed stone walls, tiled floors and brand new wood burning stove.
Continuing through the property we reach the spacious family kitchen with further character features including exposed stone walls, wood burning stove in an attractive stone fireplace. The kitchen has a range of fitted and free-standing units which lend a country kitchen ambience. Bi-fold doors at one end of the kitchen lead outside to a shady multi-level terrace. There's a very useful workshop with concrete floor, power and light (approximately 8 x 4 metres) accessed from here too.
Back through the kitchen and lounge we access a separate tv lounge/study with hardwood floor and exposed beams, beyond which there is a spacious ground floor bedroom, ideal as a cooler sleeping space during the hotter summer months, but an added bonus for anyone with reduced mobility who would prefer not to climb the stairs.
A further doorway from the main living room leads out onto a second terrace with stairs up to a small, single room guest apartment in need of a little attention but with great potential.
Back to the large living room, a set of stairs lead up to the first floor with access to two more bedrooms on opposite sides of the galleried landing as well as a family bathroom with wc, shower and free-standing tub, just off the hallway.
Outside there is a very well established small garden between the gate and front door with wysteria and clematis amongst many other shrubs.
Just over the narrow cul-de-sac the property also features a hedged and enclosed swimming pool. Perfect for cooling down during our lovely long, hot summers.
