Poitou-Charentes, Charente, Combiers, France

Nestled against the Horte Forest--over 1,140 hectares of woodland crisscrossed by kilometers of hiking and cycling trails--this stone property is located near the hamlet of Rozet, known for its small, listed church which hosts numerous concerts each summer. An idyllic, peaceful, and unspoiled setting. The flat land extends over 2 hectares, facing southwest towards a rolling rural landscape. The garden next to the house is enclosed, while a large meadow surrounds it--ideal for horses or sheep. A swimming pool could also be installed, subject to obtaining the necessary permit. Two independent dwellings, multiple possibilities. The property comprises two separate houses: a main residence with a guest house or gîte, a family project, or a combination of living space and hospitality--the choice is yours. The main house (approximately 128 sq m of living space) offers on the ground floor a cathedral-ceilinged living room with a fireplace, incorporating a professional kitchen area, a comfortable lounge or bedroom, and a shower room. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and a WC complete the sleeping area. Electric heating and double-glazed wooden windows. The former barn, converted into a dwelling in 2008, offers approximately 185 sq m of living space on two levels: two bright living rooms, one with a fireplace, an entrance hall, a fitted kitchen, and three bedrooms served by a bathroom. Both buildings feature roof insulation, double glazing, compliant sanitation, and fiber optic internet access. A large parking area, a gate, internal pathways, and play and relaxation areas complete this well-appointed property. Some updating is needed to bring the two apartments up to modern standards, but the location, southwest orientation, immediate proximity to the forest, and overall charm fully justify this investment. A wonderful lifestyle opportunity in a protected setting, just 10 km from shops, schools, and medical services.
