Centre, Indre-et-Loire, Loches, France

A46053NBO37 - Inside, the property immediately impresses with its authentic character. The spacious, light-filled kitchen benefits from windows on two sides, creating a bright and welcoming space for family meals and entertaining. The charming living room features exposed stonework, a beautiful open stone fireplace and a split-level design that naturally separates the dining area from the lounge, adding warmth and personality throughout.

The accommodation is flexible and well suited to family living or hosting guests. On the ground floor, there is a comfortable bedroom with hand basins adjoining, together with sufficient space to install a shower if desired, making single-level living a realistic option. The upper floors provide two interconnecting bedrooms on the first floor, while the second floor offers a further independent bedroom together with access to a large attic that could be converted into additional living accommodation, subject to any necessary permissions.

Because the house sits at right angles to the road rather than directly alongside it, the property and the garden enjoy a peaceful atmosphere - The enclosed garden provides a wonderfully private and secluded setting despite the property's central village location.

The extensive outbuildings are a major advantage. A substantial barn at the rear offers exceptional storage, workshop space or potential for future projects, while a traditional stone outbuilding at the front adds further versatility. Attached to the house is an enormous utility room/workshop, ideal for hobbies, DIY enthusiasts, cyclists or anyone requiring additional practical space.

The property has also benefited from significant recent investment. Installed less than two years ago, the modern air-source heat pump supplies hot water to radiators throughout the house, providing efficient and economical heating. Combined with double glazing, these improvements have resulted in an excellent Energy Performance Rating (DPE) of B, an increasingly rare and highly desirable feature for a character property in France. For electric vehicle owners, a 3.5kW Green'Up charging point is conveniently located beside the driveway.

Combining authentic Loire Valley charm, generous accommodation, impressive outbuildings, excellent energy efficiency and a peaceful village setting close to one of the region's finest medieval towns, this is a property that offers both immediate comfort and exciting future potential. Whether you are looking for a permanent residence, a family holiday home or a character property in the heart of the Loire Valley, this home deserves your attention.
