Dawn Gregg Independent Agent, says :

Outstanding value detatched house, barn and garden with 2nd house and outbuidings near Chives. Great gite potential.

Great value property with huge potential for further development. Habitable 2 bedroom house near Chives with 2nd house which was a cafe/shop with barns and garden. Ideal for development to gites or extensive accommodation for 2 families. The main house is in good condition although would benefit from refreshing and could easily be extended in to the grenier to make a good sized family house.

The main house has 2 bedrooms although could easily be extended in the 2nd floor which is currently undeveloped. It has been well maintained and is double glazed with central heating. It would benefit from refreshing but is completely habitable and 1 bedroom is ensuite with french doors leading to the garden.
There are sun lounges to the front and rear of the house and the property is light and airy with plenty of character.
The 2nd house used to be a shop and was also used as a dance hall for the village upstairs. It has 2 bedrooms and would make a great gite with a separate entrance to the house. There are extensive outbuildings and plenty of room in the garden for a pool. There is also another plot of land included to the rear of the main property which is currently used as a vegetable plot.

There is huge potential for development and there is a leisure lake just 5 minutes away.

Location in France

The Charente-Maritime is Poitou-Charentes' coastal department. Here, 420 km of sandy beaches are lapped by the Atlantic under some of the sunniest skies in the whole of France. There are also three islands, each with its own unique atmosphere. Inland, you won't struggle to find some incredible cultural and historical gems. Romanesque architecture features heavily throughout the department.
La Rochelle is the capital of the department, and is home to around 120,000 people, a great number of whom are students from the university. This extremely smart town has an active cultural scene throughout the year, regardless of the weather. You can stroll amongst the boats in the pedestrianised marina along the cobbled streets, and admire the two impressive 14th century towers.
Away from the mainland, the Ile de Ré is a large island completely encircled by fine and mostly sandy beaches. In August the population increases dramatically, mainly due to holidaying families.
There are a number of airports offering flights to and from the UK in the vicinity. Tours, La Rochelle, Nantes and Poitiers all have direct UK flights. It is also possible to fly to Angoulême by changing in Paris. If you'd rather travel by land then the TGV train service will take you to Poiters, La Rochelle or Angoulême. La Rochelle and Ile de Re are extremely popular holiday destinations and so have an active rental market. This means that the prices are going to be higher, yet still represent real value for money. There are a large number of properties needing renovation on the market, but close to the coast these are not likely to be cheap, although further inland towards Saintes there are still "bonnes affaires" to be found.
