NIORT, Charente, Address available on request

A very comfortable town house and a vast annex with its privacy protected by one of the high walls of the old town of Niort. The town house and its annex stand opposite each other on either side of a garden hidden from the street by a high stone wall. The town house, with three main storeys of living space, has two parts, the second set back from the first. The facade is adorned with an isosceles trapezoid shaped front section which the entrance is set into. The garden level houses the reception rooms - two lounges and the dining room - as well as the kitchen, which has windows throughout and which overlooks the lawn and trees, and its vast pantry.
The 1st floor has a large bedroom and a suite (bedroom, study/living room, bathroom and separate toilet) on either side of a landing lit by a stained-glass window. There is a suite on the second floor like the one on the first floor, but on the other side of the landing, which opens onto the terrace above the forepart of the building. A duplex apartment has been created: a study/living room and, above it (third floor), a bedroom with a shower room and toilet. The rest of the floor above is taken up by an attic. The roof is currently being repaired. There is a spectacular vaulted cellar under the building. 
In addition to the 300 m2 of living space in the town house, there is a 220 m2 annex house, in the shape of a farmhouse, with small-paned windows. It has two apartments inside: one with a large living room, another room, a shower room and toilet on the garden level and three bedrooms and a dressing room on the first floor the other with a living room and kitchen on the garden level, two bedrooms (one with a shower room and toilet) and a dressing room on the first floor.
There is town gas central heating in both houses.
