Description
Fabulous Nineteenth Century chateau, formerly the home of a famous Cognac producer and recently the subject of a beautiful and sympathetic renovation.
Entered through its impressive gates, then through its original front door, the majestic entrance hall with its glorious tiled floor and high ceilings leads through to two fabulous staircases and then to the rear of the property - allowing light to fill the interior from every side.
Ground floor: a large family kitchen with utility room, a comfortable drawing room, a grand dining room and a spacious billiard room complete with billiard table.
First floor: with its views across the lovely local countryside to the front and over the fabulous pool and bar to the rear, are 4 impressive bedrooms, each one with its own en suite bath or shower rooms.
Top floor: a further 5 bedrooms, all large and spacious and 2 family bath or shower rooms.
Lower ground floor: this can provide completely independent accommodation as it comprises an entrance hall leading to a large kitchen/living room/diner, 3 bedrooms (one currently used as a cinema room), a family bathroom with roll top bath and shower, an office, a laundry room and a boiler room. Plus there is an independent studio with bedroom, kitchen area and en suite shower room.
The chateau benefits from oil fired central heating.
Outside is a magnificent, private, heated pool with its own bar area, plus in a separate building, a wonderful gym and 'play room' with TV and bar.
The mature gardens provide ample shade and are fully enclosed with a fire pit and children's play area. Ideally situated just a short walk from the centre of a pretty market town with its bakery, bar, supermarket and hotel restaurant, and just a few minutes drive from the bustling town of Saint Jean d'Angely and the motorway network.
This property is ideal as a fabulous family home, or a home plus income opportunity for gites or Chambres d'Hotes or as a wedding venue (all subject to necessary permissions).
