The ground floor boasts a newly fitted American style kitchen, with central island and breakfast bar. Looking out over the views, there is a light and airy dining area, the perfect place for entertaining family, friends and guests alike. The property benefits from 2 living rooms, the larger of which has a grand fireplace. The second is currently used as a large but cosy snug, but could just as easily be another bedroom.



Further on the ground floor you will find a large laundry/mud room, a bedroom with an en suite shower room, another bedroom (currently used as an office) and a bathroom, not to mention the spacious and light-filled entrance hallway.



The exceptional finish and character carry through to the first floor, accessed via the original staircase. This level features a generous master bedroom along with three additional bedrooms—one currently serving as a luxurious dressing room and another as a home gym. A separate dressing room and a spacious bathroom complete the floor.



The house is heated by a recently installed heat pump and is fully double glazed.



To the front facade of the main house there is a terrace that runs along the entire frontage and leads to a fabulously spacious covered terrace with barbecue and working fireplace, perfect for alfresco dining. The heated salt water pool and terrace sit in a sunny corner of the enclosed private gardens.



This stunning principal accommodation lends itself to a grand family residence or could quite easily be separated to form another gite or a chambres d'hotes if so desired (subject to any necessary permissions).



Complementing the main residence is a separate one-bedroom guest house of approximately 70m², featuring a spacious open-plan living, kitchen, and dining area, along with a stylish and luxurious shower room. This space could also be adapted into a yoga studio, subject to the necessary permissions. With its own private covered terrace offering sweeping views of the surrounding countryside, it provides a truly luxurious and serene retreat.



The property spans just under one hectare and includes a spacious barn of approximately 150m², offering potential for development into a 2 storey residence of approximately 255m². Full architectural plans are available, detailing a layout with a living/dining area, kitchen, master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and stairs leading to the first floor with space for three additional bedrooms. Additionally, a small outbuilding adjoins the main house, which could be converted into a compact gîte, subject to the appropriate planning permissions.
