Aquitaine, Lot-et-Garonne, France

A23091NJD47 - There is a private driveway leading to the house from the quiet road between the two nearby communes of Sainte Maure and Saint-Pé-Saint-Simon.

There are two entrances to the property itself:

The main entrance opens onto a central hallway and gives access to all the ground floor rooms.

A door opposite leads to a spacious and fabulous archetypal French farmhouse kitchen (35m2) with a large feature fireplace, exposed beams, and original tiled floor.

There is a door leading outside from the kitchen.
From the hallway, on the right, there is a large salon/living room (27.5m2) with a wood burning stove and steps to the wisteria-covered terrace at the rear of the property.

Towards the back of the hallway is Bedroom 1 (14m2) with views to the garden, and an en-suite bathroom (6m2). There is also a smaller room currently used as an office (8.5m2) with gorgeous green and white tiled flooring and this could easily be come a 7th bedroom.

There is also a separate downstairs WC.

Upstairs, there is an open hallway with large loft hatch.

There are four bedrooms in this area.

Bedroom 2: (19m2) is the master bedroom with its own balcony and en-suite shower room.

Bedroom 4: (15m2) has a separate walk-in wardrobe (6.5m2).

Bedroom 5: (10m2).

Bedrooms 2, 3 and 4 all have wonderful panoramic views to the garden and beyond.

The hallway leads to the second part of the property, which has been converted, from loft rooms above the outbuildings. This area of the house can be accessed independently and so could become useful more private guest accommodation.

There is a large bathroom (11.5m2) from the corridor accessible for all bedrooms.

Bedroom 6: (15m2) with velux windows.

There is also a large salon (26m2) and shower room (5m2).

A door from the salon leads to a charming set of outside stone steps that lead down to the front of the house.
