House
Ground floor
A spacious entrance hall (14 sq metres) welcomes you to the ground floor of this charming village house. To the right is the sitting room (30 sq meters) with wood burning stove, laminate flooring and a window and part-glazed door onto the lane. A door way leads through to the farmhouse-style dining kitchen (24 sq meters) which also has a wood burning stove, and windows and a glazed door leading out to the courtyard garden. The kitchen boasts a range of fitted units and also a fitted oven, hob and extractor. To the rear of the entrance hall is a ground floor bathroom (6 sq metres) comprising bath with over shower, wash hand basin, WC and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
The adjoining garage (32 sq metres) has a door leading to the entrance hall, and would therefore lend itself well to being converted into living space should require it. With very little work it could make a ground floor suite or studio for someone of reduced mobility.
First floor
Three bedrooms (13, 10.5 and 10 sq metres) are located on the first floor accessed from a carpeted landing, each with fitted wardrobes, and laminate flooring. A shower room (4 sq metres) has been added by the current owners, offering shower, washbasin and WC. Also off the landing is access to the area over the garage (32 sq meters), this could also be converted to living space, perhaps a large master bedroom with en-suite. The possibility even exists to add a second staircase to link it to the garage; the two spaces together could make a self contained dwelling on two floors.
Externally
The fully enclosed courtyard garden is on two levels, with the lower level used mainly for parking (two cars comfortably) and also a terrace area. Steps lead up to the upper level where there is a small lawned area and a generous vegetable garden, large enough to keep the greenest fingers happy. To the side of the house is an open sided outbuilding currently used as wood store.
Just a few metres away is the heart of the busy village with its baker, general store, pharmacy and bar-restaurant, a cycle ride away there are two further restaurants both awarded Les Routiers rosettes and both ideal for a good value lunch. Just a few kilometres way is the bustling riverside town of Jarnac and under half an hour away the regional capital of Angoulême which offers flights to the UK (April to October).

France
France is situated in Western Europe, bordering the Bay of Biscay and English Channel, between Belgium and Spain, southeast of the UK; bordering the Mediterranean Sea, between Italy and Spain. The Mediterranean coast is characterised by hot rainless summers and mild and humid winters with an occasional cold north westerly wind known as mistral. Finally severe climates are found only in the mountains. High in the French Alps and Pyrenees, winters are long and snowy, sufficient to support ski resorts.
