Property Description

The Chateau
At the edge of a charming village set in approximately one and a half acres of grounds, this gracious property built in 1850 offers both proximity to village life and a good amount of privacy, together with a pleasant outlook over the village and the surrounding countryside.
Set over 2 floors, the entrance to this elegant chateau opens into a large central hallway of approx. 30sqm running the whole length of the house, with a door to the dining terrace at the rear.
A bright sitting room of approx. 32sqm with splendid stone fire place leads you to a private terrace which gives access to the mature gardens and swimming pool.
The spacious living accommodation includes an office area and a well-appointed kitchen giving access to a practical utility room. There is also a comfortable dining area with a wood burning stove.
The under-stair storage area conveniently houses a separate toilet facility.
A delightfully attractive wooden staircase leads you to the first floor of this classic house where you will find four well-proportioned bedrooms. The two bedrooms at the rear of the property both have en-suite facilities. A large central hallway directs you to French doors which open onto a small balcony with fabulous views over the surrounding gardens, village and countryside. On this first floor, there is also a separate shower room with toilet.
The wonderful old staircase takes you to the highest level of the house and the vast attic space.
The chateau also has an easily accessible cave equalling the surface area of the house above and with ample height.


The Gite
The gite is just part of a converted stable block and has been creatively renovated to provide a high level of comfort whilst holding onto its obvious character.
At one side of the entrance hall of approx. 5.5sqm there is a small utility room.
Enter a large living space of approx. 40sqm with open plan kitchen and dining facility, along with a comfortable lounge area. French doors take you on to a private terrace with access to the swimming pool.
Climbing the innovatively designed staircase to the first floor, you will find two spacious bedrooms of approximately 15 sqm with private shower room and second one of approx. 17sqm, a large bathroom with traditional style fittings of approx. 10sqm. Follow the staircase once more to the top floor where the attic space has been cleverly designed to house a bedroom and lounging space of approx. 45sqmor possible children’s play area.
Attached to the gite is the old stable block yet to be renovated and which currently provides a perfect storage area. It also gives access to the magnificent turreted tower.

The chateau is centrally heated whilst the gite uses under floor heating along with electric radiators in the bedroom areas.
In the grounds you will discover a picturesque stream running along the front boundary of the property. There is also a well, conveniently situated to the front of the gite.
Further there is a salt water pool of 12x6 with sun bathing terrace.

This classically proportioned and spacious property enjoys an ideal location set in mature grounds and can be enjoyed as a comfortable family residence plus guest house.
Local facilities are within strolling distance. In the village you will find a bakery, post office and primary school. The sleepy appearance of this traditional French village belies a thriving local community which enjoys a good choice of annual activities and events. There are way-marked walking trails through the surrounding countryside and a good choice of leisure activities, including a village tennis court and fishing lake.
