Le Vigeant, Charente 86150

With 13th century vaulted cellars in good condition, this beautiful edge-of-village house has three bedrooms downstairs and four upstairs, with a bathroom and Wc on each floor. It comes with 6000 m2 of attached land included - these are well cared-for gardens and a field, whilst more attached land is also possible (up to a few hectares). As you will see in the video, the house absolutely retains its original charm, and the rooms are bright. You enter through the elegant porch, to the dining (21m2) and living rooms (18m2) that are open to one-another. The kitchen connects to the dining room, and also to the garden and to the terrace with pergola. Through a doorway from the hallway, steps lead down to those amazing 13th century cellars with vaulted stone ceilings - the cellar also opens to the garden and benefits from daylight (see the video) with steps leading up to the terrace, and so as well as being the ideal place to accumulate your wine, this would make a great place for a dinner party with friends, particularly on a hot summer's day, for example. The house has heat-pump central heating with a gas boiler for back-up (and for the hot water), and is on mains drains. Fibre internet is available here. Outside, a barn (75m2, plus the same again upstairs) is suitable for use as a garage (in the video you'll see a 2Cv in it), plus a second garage (120m2) is large enough for a few cars. The house is on the very edge of the village, and the rear of the house faces open countryside. The village has a caf-restaurant, a post-office-library, school, and a stunning public trout fishing lake with barbecue area. There are visiting bakery and butcher vans. The small town of L'Isle Jourdain is only 3km away (3 minutes' drive), with supermarket, six caf-restaurants, wine shop (with tasting), fuel, car repairs, doctors and dentist, pharmacy, optician, newsagents, bank, garden centre, a DIY/hardware store, a swimming pool, waterskiing and kayaking. 275, 000 plus notaire fees of 21, 000 (these include all of the registration taxes and fees).
