House in Gouex , Vienne , Poitou Charentes

First house:
The front door leads straight into the dining room (approx. 30m²) which is a beautiful double room with an arch. A large Poitevine chimney piece with wood burner. Arched doorways, Spiral staircase to upstairs bedroom
Kitchen (approx: 16.5m²) fully equipped with fridge, freezer, electric oven, gas hob (bottled gas) and dishwasher. Three steps up to a little dining area which leads through another arched doorway to the sitting room (approx: 31m²) with amazing cathedral ceiling and a balcony with library style bookshelves. This is a cosy room despite the size and has lots of character features including a large Poitevine chimney piece with a wood-burner. From the balcony there is a door that leads into the ground floor of the house next door.
From the little eating area of the kitchen you come into a bedroom (approx; 11m²) which has a door to the outdoor terrace for catching that evening sunshine. The bathroom (approx 6m²) has a shower, a basin, bidet and the washing machine and next door is the loo (approx. 2m²) with a basin in the corner.
The second bedroom (approx. 31m²) is up the spiral staircase from the dining room and has a walk-in wardrobe (approx. 4m²) which has been lined in anticipation of installing an en-suite bathroom (to avoid having to go downstairs in the night!) but other than the lining, this is all still to do.

Second house:
You come in up some steps into the large kitchen/diner (approx: 23m²) which is a lovely sunny room, with an electric oven and gas hob and a sink, all overlooking the village square and the church, with the shower room and loo (approx: 3.5m²) off it to one corner. Stairs lead to the first floor where there is a landing and the first bedroom (approx: 19m²) and then another staircase up to the second floor where there are two smaller bedrooms (approx;12.5m² and 15m²) but you currently have to go through one to get to the other, so this is currently used as a lounge, but it wouldn't be very complicated to add a little corridor to make all the bedrooms independent.

There are cellars under both houses and a garage to the side, so lots of storage, and the oil central heating boiler and tank are here. There is a further garage behind one of the houses with big barn doors so I think it might be possible to keep a camper van in here.

There are two gardens which are across the (very small) road, one of which has its own spring/well and two expansive walnut trees. The other garden offers a wonderful private and extremely peaceful haven, which is unusual to find in the centre of a village.
