Authentic Charentaise, 5 Bedrooms, Garage, Gardens

Property Description

On the banks of the Charente, in a pretty village in the SAINTONGE hinterland, classified as a “small town of character,” “stone and water village,” and “art towns and trades,” this 19th-century home invites you to go back in time… Its character and elegance, its noble materials and its volumes will instantly captivate you, while its intimate gardens, along the river and along the cliff, will invite daydreaming...
Follow me for the tour...

We will enter through a superb hallway, its floor clad with beautiful period cement tiles, which will set the tone for the rooms to come...
On either side, we will discover the 27 m2 living room bathed in light and featuring a lovely fireplace, the 20 m2 dining room with a view of the garden, an independent 12 m2 kitchen, a 17 m2 bedroom, and a bathroom with separate WC.

We will then take the old wooden staircase to the four magnificent bedrooms on the upper floor (11.4 m2, 18.3 m2, 20.8 m2 and 37.8 m2). You will discover them “as in the old days,” with their original floors and exposed beams on the ceilings. One of the bedrooms reveals a true heritage treasure: an authentic panorama printed on dominoes (with all its panels) by Dufour dating from before 1827, adding an extra touch of authenticity. A genuine authentic setting that plunges us into the past… A bathroom, a separate WC and a 48 m2 games room complete this level.

Finally, on the second floor, we discover a fifth bedroom of 17 m2, and two attics of 35 m2 and 51 m2, which offer us a superb view of the traditional framework.

Back on the ground floor, you can easily imagine having your breakfasts on the east-facing terrace with old stones on the floor and an authentic arch inviting you to discover the garden… On the other side of the street, westward, you will be drawn by the Charente, which will invite you to dine at sunset…

To perfect this family property, you will enjoy a large attached garage and a technical room. The property has oil-fired heating, timber single-glazed windows, and is connected to the mains sewer. It awaits only its future owners to be fully renovated and lived in again…

Regarding its surroundings, the dwelling is located on a quiet, flowery street in Saint-Savinien, a village between Saintes and Rochefort offering many amenities (about fifteen shops, weekly market, crèches, schools, middle school, train station, medical hub, pharmacy, supermarket, “art house” cinema…), all within walking distance from the property. Saint-Savinien is a charming and historic commune that has modernized while staying dynamic with numerous cultural events offered year-round!

So don’t wait any longer, if this unique place has touched you with its authenticity, charm, and refinement, if it fits your family home project, if it meets your professional ambitions, or allows you to develop a tourism activity… contact me to receive the virtual tour and discover together all its potential: Alexandre Lascu -
