This historic house, in the heart of the medieval old town, is in a great location being close to the amenities of the pedestrian shopping streets as well as only a stone's throw from the quayside of the river Charente.
House
Ground floor
The front door opens into the open-plan living room (38 sq m) with exposed beam ceiling, stone "evier" (sink) and a lovely stone charentaise fireplace. This room (originally two rooms) is on two slightly different levels, with the room being informally divided into two by wooden beams.
First floor
A reclaimed wooden staircase rises from the corner of the living room to a small first floor landing, off which are two bedrooms (about 10 sq m and 7 sq m) as well as a shower room (shower, washbasin, bidet and WC).
Cellar
Beneath the house (and accessible from the house and from the lane) is a large cellar (40 sq m) with the potential for further development.

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.
Poitou-Charentes
Poitou-Charentes is located in the central western part of France. The region comprises the four departments of Charente, Charante-Maritime, Deux-Sevres and Vienne. The regional capital is Poitiers. Agriculturally, the region focuses on the farming of wheat, corn and cattle while industrially it produces machinery, chemicals and dairy products.
