Centre, Indre, Bonneuil, France

A41571ATM36 - Bright, bold, and brilliantly laid out, this super stylish family home sits just a short hop from Chaillac and ticks every box for an easygoing, high-impact lifestyle. Freshly renovated and new to the market, it offers large, flowing entertaining spaces wrapped in a warm character that instantly says welcome home.
Inside, the rooms are expansive and sized to fit oversized furniture with room to spare—more space than most homes, which means every corner feels effortless and not crowded. The ground floor flows seamlessly from one area to another and is decked out in white tile that bounces natural light around, creating a bright, airy sense of space that makes you feel instantly relaxed.

The reception room is the heart of the home, centered around a pellet burner nestled in an original stone fireplace. It’s a space designed for gatherings, with double aspect light flooding in throughout the day, making it a perfect spot to greet guests or simply unwind after a busy day. Moving through to the next room, you’ll find a large seating area anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and connected to a welcoming dining zone.
This is where conversations flow as easily as the meals you’ll whip up in the well-appointed kitchen. The layout is ideal for entertaining or for family life, with everyday living feeling natural and unforced. A perfectly positioned courtyard adds an al fresco dimension, letting the party spill outside with ease and providing direct access to a good-sized garage—handy for parking, hobbies, or extra storage.
There’s also a large laundry/storage area that’s perfect for preserves, laundry days, or extra pantry space, plus a downstairs bathroom that’s convenient for guests and spillover living.

Upstairs, a beautiful staircase with wood-turned balustrade leads you to where the home truly sings.
To the left is the Master Bedroom, a generous, tranquil space with room for a reading nook in front of an electric fireplace. Heating is handled by a modern heat pump, delivering warmth in winter and cool comfort in summer for an energy-efficient, comfortable climate all year round. The ensuite is a little sanctuary of its own, featuring a freestanding bath for long soaks or a large walk-in shower if you’re in a hurry. A well-sized walk-in wardrobe ensures clothing and accessories are easy to store and easy to access.

Along the hall, you’ll find two more large rooms, each ample enough to house American-sized beds and substantial antique furnishings with ease. At the end of the corridor is an office that could easily become a fourth bedroom or a hobby room, depending on your needs. A second bathroom serves the upstairs living spaces, ensuring large families and guests are well looked after without a fuss.

The attic is another gem of the property: warm, dry, and currently used as a self-contained apartment in the past with a kitchenette and a bathroom. There’s real scope here to reimagine and develop this space—whether you want a separate living area for guests, a studio, or extra storage, the options are flexible and inviting.

Outside, the grounds deliver a versatile, rural lifestyle. In addition to the private attached garage, the property boasts a substantial paddock of about 3,950 m² with a barn, located a short stroll down the lane. It’s a fantastic space for growing vegetables, keeping a few chickens, or even a goat if that’s your thing. This is the kind of setting that invites you to roll up your sleeves, get outdoors, and enjoy the connection to the land without feeling isolated.

The location is a real delight. Chaillac is a lively town just five minutes away, offering weekly markets, several restaurants, a school, and a supermarket. In summer, the nearby swimming lake and weekend live music add to the town’s charm, while boutique shops and antique dealers surround the town square. The countryside around is peaceful and picturesque, a haven for cyclists and hikers who relish tranquil routes and open skies.

For those who travel or love easy access to travel, the property sits about 35 minutes from La Souterraine, which has high-speed train links to Paris (roughly a 3-hour ride). Limoges is just under an hour away, home to an international airport for simple getaways or family visits. All of this makes the home an excellent lock-up-and-leave holiday base in France, or a wonderful new family home with room to grow.

With mains water and sewage in place, and plenty of scope to expand or reconfigure as your life evolves, this property blends practical modern living with timeless, generous space and a touch of rural romance. If you’re seeking a bright, airy home that anchors you in a friendly community while offering generous entertaining areas and the freedom to pursue hobbies or a busy family life, this could be the one you’ve been waiting for.
