A fully renovated, south facing 4 bedroomed Charentaise Farmhouse with swimming pool and delightful garden situated in the tranquil village of Melleran. The house is now a combination of traditional and modern styles with feature stone walls, exposed beams, vaulted ceilings and chestnut parquet floors, enhanced with new hardwood double glazing, new hardwood shutters, new doors, new flooring, new oil central heating, new wiring, roof insulation, swimming pool and double height windows which replaced the former barn doors.

The house is on the edge of Melleran – turn right out of the gate and within 100 metres you are in a country lane walking through fields. If you turn left out of the gate in a few minutes you reach the centre of Melleran with the Foyer bar/restaurant, salle de fetes, the sports field with tennis court, the petanque courts, the 12th century church, the garage, the Mairie, the boulongerie/patisserie and the nursery/infant school. Melleran is fairly central to Poitou Charente, set between Chef Boutonne and Sauze Vaussais with four supermarkets only 10 minutes away for everyday shopping. An hours driving will get you to the coast or to airports at Poitiers or Angouleme.

The house was fully renovated in 2003 using a French Architect and local French Artisans. There is a large breakfast kitchen with integrated appliances, plus a utility/laundry room and large store. The lounge has a feature limestone fireplace with wood burning stove and is spacious enough to easily take three large sofas. Double doors from the lounge lead into the dining hall with sliding doors in the full height windows giving access to the garden. Off the hall there is a study/library with broadband (which could be used as a ground floor bedroom) and a cellier/wine cellar. The stairs in the dining hall lead up to a mezzanine with a feature stone wall, a vaulted ceiling and chestnut parquet flooring. The mezzanine gives access to the bedrooms and bathrooms. All the bedrooms have vaulted ceilings and feature original oak beams. To the right of the mezzanine, are the master and bedroom 2 - grande chambres which share a bathroom. On the other side of the mezzanine are two further double bedrooms and the second bathroom.

Outside there is an attached single garage and a very large workshop/store both with electricity. The in-ground 5 x 11 metre swimming pool was added in 2005 and has fully conformant security fencing and gate and 100 square metres of sun terrace. The garden is divided into a number of different features/rooms with both ornamental and fruit trees, a lawn, stone features, flower borders and shrubs plus a laurel hedge. As well as the garage, the gravel driveway provides parking for several cars.

Overall this is a very peaceful place to live. When people visit us from the UK you can almost watch the stress evaporate as they relax into our pace of life and the peaceful surroundings
