Description
The house is stylishly decorated throughout, the beautifully tiled and welcoming entrance hall with its handsome wooden staircase directing you either west to the dining room and on to the heart of the home, the large, triple aspect, fully fitted kitchen, or eastwards into what is currently used as a study and then the grand, equally bright living room. Beyond the entrance hall, there is also a laundry room and downstairs WC.
Upstairs there are six bedrooms (two with ensuite facilities), two separate WCs and a central bathroom with its own jacuzzi bathtub. The shower room of the largest, master bedroom even has an inbuilt sauna cabin.
There are two staircases, one from the entrance and another from the living room, making it very simple to separate spaces, perfect for when friends or family arrive. Beneath the kitchen, and accessed from the rear, is a cool, basement area, housing the boiler and hot water tank.
The grounds are a sight to behold, entirely walled and secure, with gated access at top and bottom. A large and glorious pool sits proudly amidst landscaped gardens and rolling lawns, with tall trees and shrubs offering much-needed shade for the hot summer months.
There are a further two buildings on the property, the first, once home to the caretaker, housing a small garage and workshop, with covered carport area and rooms above, while the second, at the north end or the property once housed the groundsman.
The whole combines to create something really rather special, a prestige property near the heart of historic Cognac, offering both comfort and luxury, and making it a dream family home.
