Superb property with two charming renovated cottages (originally a mill and distillery) and a 16th century miller's house for restoration. Located in the beautiful rolling hills of vineyards, sunflowers and woods of the south Charente, the property is around 10 minutes drive from the large town of Barbezieux, with all shops, services, schools, hospital, and a good selection of bars and restaurants, with Angouleme and Bordeaux both within easy reach. There is a boulangerie a couple of minutes away in the nearest village, so whilst the setting provides peace and tranquillity, it is not isolated and the comforts of town life are never far away !
The property is reached via a long driveway, with a bridge over a small river, and is surrounded by nearly an hectare of pretty grounds, with lovely views all around. The two cottages are built into the hillside so are entered at ‘ground floor’ level at the front, but have doors from the upstairs landing at the back to the outside. The owners use the first cottage as their main residence, while the other cottage can be used as a guest cottage, gite or studio/music room, etc. These two cottages are renovated to a high standard and provide comfortable accommodation, with full insulation and oak double-glazed windows throughout, but retain many original features, such as the old mill wheel, beautiful beams and exposed stonework. The miller's house requires complete renovation and has the potential to be a very large and prestigious dwelling.
The accommodation in the first cottage comprises :
Upstairs :
The second cottage comprises:
Upstairs, the landing (with door to outside) leads to:
The ‘main’ house, for renovation, will have around 300m² of habitable space, with 3 rooms of around 40m² with fireplaces on the ground floor, and another room of around 70m², and room for 4 large en suite bedrooms upstairs. It has a cellar of around 100m² and although the property requires full restoration, there are many lovely original features, including a beautiful pigeonnier, lovely fireplaces, etc, and offers great potential to create a truly superb dwelling.
The grounds include parkland, meadow and the ruins of an old stone barn, and have been beautifully maintained and amount to around 9200m² (over 2 acres).
This property is full of character, and due to its lovely setting, charming, flexible accommodation and huge potential to develop further, it is a real gem, and viewing is highly recommended.
