Description
Welcome to this impressive family residence located in the picturesque town of Barbezieux-Saint-Hilaire, tucked away in the charming and tranquil region of Poitou-Charentes in the Charente department of France. As a bussy agent constantly on the move, I'm excited to present you with this opportunity to own a slice of French paradise. This property isn't just a house; it's a sanctuary where the greenery and countryside views stretch beyond the horizon, promising a lifestyle rich with tranquility and natural beauty.
Nestled on a wooded park spanning over 4,000 square meters, this estate provides a private retreat that offers an exceptional sense of peace and seclusion. Built in 2003 by the reputable builder Augier, the main house boasts approximately 225 square meters of well-thought-out living space. It's an appealing choice for those desiring comfortable family living coupled with the luxury of expansive grounds.
The estate includes not only the primary residence but also a charming independent gîte spanning 65 square meters. This self-contained guest house offers excellent potential for hosting visitors or providing an additional income stream. Imagine a summer afternoon spent reading in the light-drenched living room of the gîte, its open kitchen seamlessly connecting to a private terrace overlooking the heated swimming pool—a delightful spot for guest accommodations or even a tranquil personal retreat.
Living in such an area includes the perks of residing in a dynamic town like Barbezieux, only a quick 5-minute drive away. Here, you'll find almost everything one could need, from shops, schools, and medical facilities to bustling local markets. With the nearby access ramp to the N10, reaching the TGV station in Angoulême is straightforward, making Paris just a stone’s throw away. And if you're craving the vibrant city lights, Bordeaux is only about an hour’s drive.
Now, for the main house, as you step through the grand entrance, you are greeted by a sense of space and light. A magnificent stone staircase directs your path to various parts of the residence. To your left, an office perfect for remote work or study; to your right, a vast living area of more than 77 square meters where the kitchen effortlessly merges with the living room. The inviting fireplace sets a cozy atmosphere, perfect for brisk evenings. Large windows and terrace access allow for fluid indoor-outdoor living, bringing fresh air and garden views right into the heart of the home.
Family living is further enhanced by three generous bedrooms and two bathrooms on the ground floor, including an en-suite. Meanwhile, the majestic tower adds a whimsical touch with an additional bedroom and private shower room upstairs. The practical back rooms, including a laundry area and direct garage access, streamline daily chores.
The gîte's setup includes a 43-square-meter living room with an open kitchen, and a unique bedroom ‘under veranda,’ offering both light and a scenic outlook of the garden area. With its own private terrace facing the swimming pool, the gîte epitomizes privacy and relaxation.
For those who appreciate space, the full basement under the house provides vast storage opportunities with specific areas designated for a garage, workshop, storage rooms, and wine cellars. It's a space where hobbies and essential domestic tasks can coexist comfortably.
