The Garden
The property is set on a plot of 4000m2 (1 acre). The garden is beautifully planted and well kept with several large shady trees and many mature flowering shrubs.
To the side of the property and adjacent to the kitchen is a pretty paved dining terrace, perfect for al fresco evenings.
The Pool
The swimming pool was installed 4 years ago. It is a free form pool of approximately 10m x 5m with roman steps. It has a salt water filtration system with an automatic robot cleaning system.
The pool is fully terraced with a solar shower and is fully fenced to comply with French legislation.
There is a separate pool house with storage.
The Outbuildings
The driveway separates the house from the outbuildings.
There is an attractive stone barn with double height ceiling and a super beam structure, which has planning permission and architects drawings to convert to a 4 bedroomed property. Attached to the barn is an open sided wooden tobacco barn, which also has planning permission and architects plans to convert to a 2 bedroomed property. To the rear of the barn there is private area to the garden, which would be ideal should someone wish to go ahead with the barn conversion.
Should additional accommodation not be required, then the outbuildings would be ideal for storage or as a workshop or games room. They are both in excellent condition.
The architect’s plans are available upon request.
Additional Information

The house has been rented as a holiday home in the past and would generate an excellent rental income if required.
