Tim Clark, Independent Agent, says: | | Amazing property. This house is in a prime location in this popular Chateau town. You have views, a large private garden and a ready made income from the renovated apartments. Ideal for B&B or holiday lets too. | This huge house has been split into two by the current owners. You have the owner’s home to the right in the main picture and the self contained apartments have been created in the left side of the house. You could maintain the current layout or easily rejoin to create a huge family home.
We will start with the owner’s home. You enter into a wide hallway through the remarkable original front door. The wide board floors immediately catch you eye as does the wide oak staircase at the far end.
To the left are two doors, the end door leads into the recently re-fitted kitchen. Contemporary fitted units add to the character of the house and you have a view over the rear garden. There is ample space for a dining table and this room would become the focal point of family life. A door from the kitchen leads into the family lounge where a wood burning stove is set into the fireplace. Original wide board floors are again a wonderful feature.
Both rooms are of a good size being over 30m2. Back into the hallway and the beautiful staircase leads onto the first floor where you have three beautifully renovated bedrooms. All double size ranging from 15-30m2. There is also a family bathroom connected jack and Jill style to two of the bedrooms. There is also an adjoining door leading from the largest and smallest bedroom allowing this to be used as a family suite.
The stairs then carry on from the hallway to the second floor. Here you have the same layout of bedrooms, but they are still to modernise. This would realistically take the form of décor and clearing up rather than full renovation. Water already runs to this floor to allow for further guest rooms.
The stairs continue up into the loft area where you could if required create more bedrooms or leave as storage.
This completes the owner’s accommodation.
The apartments have been very well renovated again keeping the character foremost in mind. You have a separate off-street entrance into the hallway and each apartment has its own entrance as well as, gas, water and electricity meters. The ground floor entrance leads into more of a maisonette as you have a kitchen diner to the left. A downstairs WC, Then a lounge of around 20m2 with a magnificent original fireplace on one side. Stairs lead to the first floor where you will find two double bedrooms. The main bedroom also has an en-suite shower room.
Apartment two is on the second floor and is laid out over one level. It has a large lounge, kitchen diner with a shower room off to the one side, then a good sized double bedroom with views right across the valley opposite.
It would be very easy to create a third apartment in the loft. There is ample height and more than enough space to make another 1 bed apartment. The owner has also installed separate utility supplies to this part of the house too.
At the rear of the house accessed from the main house kitchen you have a raised terrace looking out over the garden making the most of the views, the steps leading to the garden below are very grand splitting two ways. The garden is terraced as separate lawned areas and is totally enclosed by stone walls. There are also some old outbuildings to one side. The current owners also have permission to put a large gate in at the bottom of the garden to allow for the creation of a large parking area.
There are also extensive vaulted cellars under the whole house and these are laid out as not only storage but workshop space too. Good height ceilings allow plenty of head room.
The whole property benefits from gas central heating as well as being connected to mains drainage.
In summary an absolutely magnificent property with bags of character and very thoughtfully laid out to not only accommodate a large family but provide an income too.
