Anne Rice, Independent Agent, says: | Brimming with character. Situated in serene Loire Atlantique countryside. Small hamlet nearby. Not surrounded by properties. Spacious detached stone longere with three/four bedrooms and two bathrooms. Potential to extend into a much larger family home or independent two bedroom cottage (already partly renovated)
This stone longere oozes character with original oak beams and some exposed stone and fireplaces with integral woodburning stoves. Already a very spacious home, there is a further sixty square metre (plus grenier) part of the building that could be converted into an independent cottage with two double bedrooms, or alternatively as an extension to the existing house. CENTRAL HEATING AND DOUBLE GLAZING THROUGHOUT
| Double glazed french doors lead you into the very attractive and spacious living room decorated in pleasing neutral colours. There are original oak beams, tiled flooring, a feature fireplace with integral woodburning stove and some exposed stonework to one wall. This is a south facing room, giving plenty of light into the main living quarters of the house. Delightful reception/dining room with parquet flooring, feature fireplace with woodburning stove, and a bespoke corner bar. There are some vertical wall beams which also give originality and charm. This lovely room has three windows, making another bright room and taking advantage of the southern aspect. The dining kitchen leads off the living room and has fully fitted units, four ring gas hob and cooker hood. Fully tiled floor and external door leading to the back garden area/drive. Generously proportioned utility room with fully tiled floor and a shower room with washbasin and wc.
From the living room, a hardwood staircase leads up to a master bedroom with dormer window and exposed beams, fitted hanging and shelving space and carpeted floor. A carpeted corridor leads to a second double bedroom also with dormer window, exposed beams, storage cupboard and carpeted floor. Third double bedroom at the gable end of the property, also with some exposed beams and a window overlooking the surrounding countryside. There is a bathroom with modern white suite including bath with shower overhead, vanity washbasin unit and wc. At the opposite end is a very practical walk-in linen storage cupboard. A further small room on this floor could be used either as a study or child's bedroom.
Part of the longere is ready for conversion (partly renovated) and would make an very large extension to the family home or alternatively a spacious two double bedroom cottage. The longere continues futher with an attached building currently being used for storage and a potting shed. Behind this is an open barn ideal for a garage and wood storage. A large cave for storing your wine and a boiler room which houses the central heating boiler and tank. There is an additional metal detached barn which is spacious enough to store several cars and caravan/motorhome. Attached to the side of the barn is a dog pen with wooden fencing.
THE GARDEN is well established with a variety of flowers. A brick built barbeque and paved dining area are also features in the garden, along with some trees and shrubs, a pergola and a well. The drive sweeps round from the back of the house onto a large parking area and continues along the front. Large wooden gates.
