Beautiful Detached Character Home, with a Pool, Attached Stunning Garden and a Short Walk to the Town Center

Property Description

This stunning detached character property, featuring a beautiful in-ground pool and a charming, well-kept enclosed private garden, is located in a peaceful part of Ruffec, yet only a few minutes' walk from the town centre. Brimming with character and enhanced by modern comforts, this home offers elegant and inviting living spaces throughout. The ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hall, a fantastic and spacious sitting/dining room full of charm—complete with gorgeous exposed stone walls and large double-glazed patio doors overlooking the pool and garden. There is also a ground-floor bedroom, again with lovely garden views. In addition, a second hallway (with a stone staircase leading to the cellar) connects to the recently fitted modern kitchen, offering generous storage and delightful garden views, as well as a downstairs WC. On the first floor, you will find two large bedrooms with ample storage, a spacious mezzanine which could serve as an additional bedroom if required, and a luxurious bathroom with WC. Outside, the property enjoys a very pretty and private garden, with gated access leading to a gravelled area providing off-street parking for two cars. Nestled within the stunning grounds—which border a quiet stream—is the superb in-ground swimming pool, along with a large garage and a wood store. The property benefits from a new conforming septic system, double glazing, and fibre-optic internet. Located within walking distance of the attractive market town of Ruffec, with its shops, cafés, restaurants, schools, and train station, the property truly offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful and picturesque setting while remaining close to everyday amenities. The cities of Angoulême and Poitiers are less than an hour away, and the house is under 45 minutes from Limoges/Poitiers airports, which offer direct flights to the UK. An exceptional property with a pool in a superb location. Viewing highly recommended.
