From Ruins to Retreat – Create your Dream by the Lakes

Property Description

EXCLUSIVE TO BEAUX VILLAGES - Brimming with character and opportunity, this south-facing stone property offers the perfect foundation for a private family home or a potential gîte complex (subject to the necessary permissions).

The main house features a traditional Charentais fireplace, pantry, two bedrooms, and additional rooms awaiting renovation. Adjoining the property are three substantial barns (68m², 111m² and 119m²) providing excellent scope for conversion, along with further outbuildings including dwellings, attic spaces, a hangar, bread oven, and original water pump. Planning permission for conversion of one barn was approved in March 2025, with artist’s impressions and design concepts available.

Set within 4,995m² (1.23 acres) of enclosed land, the property benefits from mains water, electricity, and a well (a new septic tank will be required).

Perfectly positioned for both relaxation and recreation, the peaceful Lac du Mas Chaban is just a short stroll away, while the vibrant Lac de Lavaud—with its beaches, watersports, bars, and restaurants—is only 10 minutes by car. Nearby villages Lesignac-Durand and Massignac provide everyday amenities, including cafés, shops, and even a Michelin-starred restaurant.

A rare opportunity to create an exceptional home or holiday business in the heart of the Charente lakes region.
