Toby Hawkins, Independent Agent, says:
This charming house is built on a plateau, surrounded by beautiful mixed mature woodland and with an amazing view down over the river Clouère and towards the ruins of Gençay Castle. The front garden consists of wooded walks on many levels with rocks protruding here and there from the landscape, while in complete contrast behind the house is a lovely flat lawn in full sun with a half submerged swimming pool. Beside this is another stretch of garden which is fully enclosed and has views over the river. This really is a beautiful place. Across the little bridge over the river and you come to a nature walk: a lovely public wild garden which is maintained as a wildlife sanctuary for trees, flowers and birds. It is a very short walk to the centre of town, which has an excellent range of shops and services, including Christies, the well-known English teashop and bookshop while, for a more sophisticated shopping experience, Poitiers is just 25 kilometres away.
Ground floor: From the front door there is a hall with double cupboard with shelves and a hanging cupboard. Off the hall is the utility room with washing machine point and shelving. Kitchen: Tiled floor, south facing window so lovely and bright, fitted kitchen with built-in units including fridge and dishwasher, electric oven and gas hob and built in kitchen table/breakfast bar. Secondary double glazing and fly screen on the window. Glazed doors to living room. Sitting room (5.4m x 4m). This room has a beautiful parquet floor and an open fireplace and double French doors leading out on to the south facing conservatory, overlooking the front garden. Conservatory (5.5m x 5m) this is a beautifully warm room where the current owners spend all their time. There is a fireplace in the corner which is evidently used for flame-grill cooking. This room provides the perfect space for entertaining! Dining room (6.5m x 3.05m) This room also benefits from the same fantastic parquet flooring as the sitting room and has a window overlooking the back garden as well as fully glazed French windows on to the west terrace. Bedroom 2 (3.8m x 3.1m) with parquet floors and double french windows to the front, opening on to a south facing tiled terrace. A very bright and sunny room. Bedroom 3 (4 x 3.8m) with parquet floors and a window overlooking the garden; built in cupboards, door to garage. Bathroom (2.7m x 1.75m) The bathroom is carpeted and has a bath with shower over, a basin and a bidet. Separate lavatory. Study/Library (4.4m x 3.6m) This room has a wonderful polished stone floor, exposed beams, fully glazed French windows out on to the terrace at the back of the house and a window the other side over the garden. Stairs to: Tower Bedroom (4.4m x 3m) which feels wonderfully romantic and secluded with an en-suite bathroom containing shower, basin and wc. Large double cupboard. Studio (36m2) Whether you are an artist or gardener, potter or drummer, this separate building provides an amazing bright space to indulge your hobbies. It has a sink with hot and cold running water and houses the boiler. It is insulated and centrally heated. Under the studio is the cellar. This feels like a pirate hideout, a real cavern, hewn out of the rock. A fantastic room, not only for storing your wine at the correct humidity but for enjoying a glass or two with friends into the small hours. Garden The garden surrounds the house and offers an eniable variety of settings to enjoy. There is a good sized flat lawn at the back surrounded by mature trees and high hedges, with the swimming pool and a terrace; another strip of garden starting beside the lawn and going back into the woods; in front of the house is an enchanting labyrinth of little walks, opening up into peaceful little flat areas to sit and read or simply pass the time. There are further outbuildings including a hen house and storeroom with electricity and water, a little workshop, a wood shed, and a double garage with another shower room with wc and basin and another little tool shed. The garden is not overlooked at any point and offers so much privacy that if you err towards naturism this would be a perfect place to live. This is a super house in a fantastic location with a good-sized, low maintenance garden, allowing you a guilt-free time to enjoy an aperitif on the terrace drinking in the views. If you think you might need more land, at the bottom of the rock face there is an adjoining orchard and kitchen garden on the banks of the river for sale with this house for a extra 20,000 euros. There is oil fired central heating (new boiler in 2006), and broadband internet. It has a septic tank but mains drains pass in front of the property should you prefer it.
