Stone farmhouse with gite, outbuildings and views

Overview

A beautiful, traditional property with separate gite/guest annexe, barn, land and views.

Interior and Garden

Such a handsome stone farmhouse dating from 1700, retaining a wealth of period features.  Comprising the main house, with one of the best porches I’ve come across, featuring ancient stone columns looted from a local chateau (not recently!) and a fabulous oak front door.  Having undergone sympathetic, tasteful renovation by its current owners, the property is presented in excellent condition.  Preserving the original flooring, exposed beams and fireplaces – modern touches have been added; a light and airy kitchen with a top of the range Godin stove, double glazing and oil central heating.

Across the courtyard there is a one-bedroom gîte or guest annexe with a log burning stove.  A large open cart barn for garaging, another vast barn with multiple possibilities, part of which is used for entertaining on a large scale! Summer kitchen with covered terrace, and a separate home office and wine store – perfect for working from home.

The charming, private gardens have established trees and shrubs, a fishpond and the essential boules pitch complete with pergola to protect you during those long afternoon competitions.  With fabulous views of the surrounding countryside, the property is in a private location yet close to local amenities.  It really does not get much better than this, please form an orderly queue.
