Suzanne Barry Independent Agent, says :
Comfortable farmhouse, with outbuildings, parking, gardens, a couple of minutes drive from Civray in a well kept peaceful farming hamlet
This property has been the subject of modernization over recent years and is extremely homely and comfortable.
Parking in the large driveway, there are stone barns to one side, perhaps somewhere to store your caravan or car collection or maybe your animal feed. There are a handful of neighbours in the tiny hamlet so you wouldn’t be isolated, yet there is a good degree of privacy.
The house is set up on a small hill over a cellar. The main entrance into the property is into a large open plan living room with dining area to one end. The room is large and could if required be divided to give a formal dining area. A downstairs loo and bathroom completes the downstairs.
Upstairs is a large landing and 3 bedrooms, with a family bathroom. The property has been recenty modernized and is very welcoming and extremely comfortable
The kitchen is recently fitted and comfortable with doors out to the garden area. The property benefits from shutters meaning it makes a good lock up and leave home. Just outside the kitchen is a brand new patio area, which makes for a pleasant place to dine with your friends and family, in the wonderful extended summers of the poitou charente region.
As well as the large elevated garden which would be perfect for a pooln there is a nice big paddock across the hamlet lane which would be ideal for a pony or 2 and the total plot size of the property is just under a hectare. A large parking area, as well as big barn in good condition, this property has been well maintained and modernised as a comfortable home.
All this is excellent value at this price and would make an ideal permanent home as well as a comfortable family holiday home.
Only a couple of minutes from the gorgeous market town of Civray in the Charente Valley. Nearest airports are Poitiers (40m mins drive) and Limoges (1 hour)

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.
