A 3 bedroom stone-built house in the heart of the village of Bouresse, near Lussac les Chateaux.
This village house is like a stage set. It is a perfect holiday home in the middle of a lovely, very friendly village with amenities (bar/restaurant, baker, village shop, hairdresser and excellent hardware store)
There are beautiful walks in the stunning forests nearby and the along river valley of the Vienne, and yet you are within an easy drive of Poitiers.
Previously the butcher's shop, there are large rooms and all the character of a traditional village property.
The shop is a super, big room, with a door to the street and a large window letting light flood in. Take away the fridges and this would be an impressive sitting room.
A door leads through to the kitchen, which also has a window and door to the front of the house. There are exposed beams, a tiled floor and a wood burning cuisiniere. Even with a large farmhouse-style kitchen table, this is a super room with lots of space. The back kitchen has lots of storage and is divided from the kitchen by a pretty half-glazed partition.
There is a second back kitchen, currently used for the professional tools of the trade, This leads through to the storage shed and the garage, which has space for one car.
Upstairs, there is a large open sitting room and study, much more than a landing, which has doors off it to the three bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a sitting room, and the bathroom.
This house has mains drains, broadband internet and is fantastic value in a very friendly village.
The village is proud of its agricultural roots, amid tranquil, gently rolling countryside of oak forests, sheep, cattle and sunflowers, ten minutes from the beautiful valley of the Vienne with its opportunities for fishing, canoe/kayaking and amazing riverside walks.
40 minutes from Poitiers airport, TGV railway station (90 minutes to Paris) and Futuroscope; 90 minutes from Limoges airport.

Location in France
The Vienne was formed in 1790 from parts of the historical regions of Poitou, Berry and Touraine. The department tends to slope downwards from the north to the south with the highest point reaching 764 ft and the lowest point being 115ft at the confluence of the River Creuse and the River Charente. The department gets its name from the River Vienne, which flows straight down the centre.
Poitiers is the departmental and regional capital and boasts France's oldest Christian building, the Saint Jean baptistery, constructed back in the fourth century. The town has some fine examples of Romanesque architecture, is a pleasant small city, and visitors will find a relaxed atmosphere, especially compared to Paris. IT is home to around 90,000 people including many students thanks to the popular university. Poitiers is also a good base to visit nearby towns and cities. A lot of retirees move to the city and its' environs, attracted by its warm climate (snow is rare).
North of Poitiers is Futuroscope, France's scientific theme park, created by the Vienne departmental council. Further north still is Chatellerault, a charming town with tree-lined avenues and the imposing Henry IV bridge, built some four centuries ago which crosses the River Vienne.
Montmorillon is a small town with only 7,500 inhabitants, and book publishing is the town's speciality and a book fair is held here every June. The nearby Vienne River offers kayaking and fishing amongst many other activities. Away from the river, the gentle countryside provides an ideal location for horse riding and walking.
Ryanair flies direct to both Limoges and Poitiers. If you'd rather go by land then take France's super fast TGV train service, which stops off in Poitiers. To get there by car, take the A10 from Paris.
