Property Description: I think that we can all see that this property needs more than a little renovation, however, it is in a lovely setting about 10 minutes from the popular and lively little town of Chaillac where there is a good selection of shops and services, and yet you are on the edge of a pretty little hamlet with very few neighbours, and peace and quiet and beautiful views to surround you.
The property is a lovely detached building that could be expanded as there are 2 large barns attached to the existing old house – all be-it without roofs at the moment!
On the ground floor there is a kitchen (29m2) tiled with ‘tomettes’ (old quarry tiles), with a fireplace, old stone sink and old cupboard, there are two smaller rooms to the rear (7.5 and 10.5m2) and it would make sense to take the partition walls down here to create one spacious kitchen diner in this part of the property.
Attached to the house is a barn (65m2) that would make a fantastic living room, and there is then another barn attached to this one (49m2), that could be used for further living space, or maybe retained as a garage/work shop? (These are the 2 buildings have no roofs). Attached to the other side of the house is a small outbuilding (3.5m2) and the bread oven – both of which are ruined, but which could be re-instated to make a small utility room and downstairs cloakroom maybe!?.
The property sits in 4.000m2 of good flat land currently laid to grass that could be turned into a lovely garden given a little work, and there are beautiful views across the open fields beyond. The property sits at the end of a small hamlet lane, and after you the road turns into a track used occasionally to access the fields or by people walking their dogs. The nearest neighbour is only just within view so this is a truly a tranquil spot – un-overlooked by anyone – apart from the cows perhaps!
