Description

91993ET17 - Just 30 minutes from Cognac, 15 minutes from Jonzac and one hour from Bordeaux, this character property combines heritage, elegance and nature in a beautifully preserved setting extending to approximately 2 hectares.

Offering nearly 790 m² of living space, the estate includes an elegant, fully renovated maison de maître of approximately 350 m², featuring spacious reception rooms, a fitted kitchen, five bedrooms with private bathrooms, and an additional bedroom.

The property also includes three independent gîtes of 55 m², 70 m² and 63.5 m², providing a further six bedrooms in total, with some benefiting from private gardens or terraces.

A true centrepiece of the estate is its exceptional 17th-century watermill, which is still in operation and can be used to produce flour and oil. The mill also benefits from officially recognised water rights, offering potential for the installation of a micro-hydroelectric power plant, subject to the necessary studies and authorisations.

A magnificent 250 m² reception hall, with exposed roof timbers, an impressive fireplace, WCs and a catering preparation area, together with two covered areas and numerous outbuildings, completes the property.

The outbuildings also offer the possibility of creating horse boxes, providing excellent potential for the development of an equestrian tourism activity alongside the estate’s accommodation and reception facilities.

The grounds extend to approximately 2 hectares and are crossed by a stream, with a pond, bamboo grove, mature trees, vegetable garden and traditional bread oven. There is also potential to create a swimming pool, subject to the necessary permissions.

Just 15 minutes away, the spa town of Jonzac has a railway station offering connections to Bordeaux in approximately 45 minutes, with several services each day.

Sold fully furnished and equipped, this rare property would be equally suited to use as an exceptional family residence or to a project involving gîtes, B&B accommodation, receptions, events or equestrian tourism.

An authentic and truly distinctive estate offering remarkable residential, tourism, equestrian and heritage potential.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
