VERY GRAND CHATEAU STYLE 7 BED PROPERTY
This is a very grand and attractive chateau style house with 7 bedrooms. Currently used as a B & B, it is situated in a small village of the Deux Sèvres region off the A10 motorway, south of Niort.
The living accommodation is in a very good decorative condition and is ready to move in.
The land: the property has been built on 1610m² (just under ½ acre) of land, which is totally enclosed, with a landscaped garden and a pond. It comes with a further 610m², which is situated a few 100 yards away from the main house.
The "chateau" is very spacious with some 350m² of living space and has been divided into two sections.
The part occupied by the owners has been separated from the B & B guests' areas.
On the ground floor, coming through the shared entrance hall, you will find the owners accommodation consisting of a fitted kitchen, a sitting room with a lovely fireplace, a bedroom with an en suite bathroom.
On the other side of this entrance hall there is the guests' kitchen, dining room and lounge with a beautiful fireplace. There is a further room in need of decoration, which could be used as a games room with access on to a small conservatory.
The first and second floors have all been equipped to accommodate guests in luxurious fashion.
The first floor has two very large double bedrooms with their own entrance and fantastic bathrooms. There is a further bedroom in one of the sections, which is ideal to accommodate families.
The second floor is a mirror image of the first floor; however, the extra bedroom in the tower section has to be completed.
There is also a large cellar and a boiler room.
Location: The "chateau" is situated in a small village where you will find a local baker and all basic amenities within a 2 miles radius. About 13kms north, you will find the lovely market town of Niort, where you will find shops galore, supermarkets, colleges and hospital centres.

Location in France
Deux-Sevres is the next departement inland from the Vendee and below the Loire, in the region of Poitou Charente in Western France. It is so named because of the two rivers running through it, the Sevre Nantaise in the north and the Sevre Niortaise in the south. The climate is very similar to that of the Mediterranean with long hot summers, although the winters can be very cold with temperatures dropping below freezing during December and January.
Niort, the department capital, was a Roman town which did extremely well under the Plantagenets, who granted the town a charter and built a stronghold, completed by Richard the Lionheart. In the 18th century the town specialized in tanning skins imported from Canada to make chamois leather for gloves, and it is also known for its angelica. More recently Niort has attracted several large mutual insurance companies, which has bolstered its economy and attracted young people to work there.
Bressuire is known for its major cattle markets, and is the centre of some rich and picturesque scenery used for cattle breeding and rearing, and the landscape is similar to that of rural England or the Dordogne! Melle is a green and florally decorated town that hides its origins as a centre for lead and silver mining, as well as minting coins. Melle was on one of the main routes for pilgrims heading for Compostella in Spain. Parthenay, to the north of Niort, was founded in 1020 on an outcrop above the river, and the medieval town has kept its character.
Poitiers and La Rochelle airports provide easy access to the Departement, with Ryanair flights from Stansted. British Airways offer flights from Gatwick to Nantes, a 2-hour drive away. Cross-channel travelers can reach Deux-Sevres within a comfortable 4 hours' drive from Caen and St Malo, or just over 5 hours from Cherbourg.
