Detached character property in Loudun - REDUCED PRICE

NEW REDUCED PRICE FOR QUICK SALE!

This charming 2 bedroom character property boasts many period features including two period fireplaces, high ceilings with exposed beams, original tiled flooring and period fitted cupboards. It also retains its original oak doors and windows throughout and its original oak and elm staircase. The property has recently been sympathetically and stylishly restored to a high standard. A new roof and guttering was recently fitted and in the last year it has had a complete electrical and plumbing refit to current French Norms.

The property has approximately 80 square meters of habitable space arranged over two levels. The ground floor has a large beautifully presented living room with newly laid oak parquet floor, a high ceiling and exposed beams. The property features two period fireplaces; the first in the living room in gray marble is thought to date from an 1847 refitting. The second in the master bedroom is thought to date from the late 1700's and is in the local limestone.  The generously proportioned kitchen has a period full height fitted cupboard spanning the room and a wonderful original hexagonal-tiled floor. The stairwell, through which the small private garden is accessed, houses a small utility area. On the upper level the staircase leads into a corridor feeding the large master bedroom, 2nd bedroom and bathroom. The upstairs boasts original tile flooring throughout and both bedrooms benefit from period fitted cupboards, in the case of the master bedroom impressively spanning the length of the room flanking the fluted stone fireplace. The master bedroom enjoys beautiful views over a local historic monument and, as is the case throughout the property, exceptional light levels from its westerly aspect. The bathroom, all newly fitted, is equipped with a shower, sink and toilet and has high quality modern fittings throughout.

The property is heated by a wood burning stove located in the living room and has additional electric heating throughout.

The house is situated in the center of Loudun, a small town with excellent amenities including schools, supermarkets, doctors and dentists. The property sits on a small residential road off one of the central squares that houses the local art gallery (a former Roman church) and the town library.
