Description
Accessed through an attractive covered entrance porch, the estate comprises a charming Charentaise house, extensive outbuildings and almost 6000 m² of gardens and grounds.
The main house offers approximately 308m² of living accommodation and was successfully operated as a bed and breakfast for many years. The ground floor includes a spacious farmhouse kitchen with wood-burning stove, a dining room, a sitting room with fireplace, additional reception rooms and a ground-floor bedroom with WC and a shower room awaiting completion.
On the first floor are six guest bedrooms, each benefiting from its own private shower room and WC, making the property ideally suited for those wishing to revive a hospitality business, create multi-generational accommodation or simply accommodate family and friends in complete comfort.
The property is being sold fully furnished, allowing the future owner to move straight in or begin operating immediately.
Separated from the main house by the covered porch, Building A offers an impressive range of former winery buildings, workshops and barns. The true centrepiece is a magnificent traditional Cognac alembic, a beautiful reminder of the property's viticultural past. Subject to the necessary permissions, the surrounding spaces could lend themselves to a variety of projects, including a reception venue, tasting room, bar or restaurant, with the alembic becoming a unique focal point.
Building B provides further substantial covered storage and barn space. With the relevant permissions, it offers significant conversion potential and could provide accommodation or facilities on a scale comparable to the main house.
Outside, the lifestyle appeal continues with a 9m x 4m swimming pool featuring Roman steps, a glazed cover and extensive surrounding terraces. A separate poolside building offers generous covered entertaining areas, ideal for summer dining and celebrations.
The enclosed courtyard garden creates a wonderfully private setting, while beyond lies an orchard and further grounds enjoying open countryside views.
A rare and versatile property combining authentic Charentaise charm, commercial potential and a wealth of original character, just minutes from Cognac.
