Outside
The property sits on 2,726m² of land, with a large gravel courtyard and driveway providing plenty of parking.
At the rear is a garden with an enclosed, heated above-ground swimming pool. There is also an 18m² veranda/summer lounge, storage areas, a chicken coop, pool equipment shed and a further 36m² outbuilding.
For anyone looking for space for hobbies, leisure or business use, the outbuildings are a particular feature. The huge 131.6m² garage has an equally large 131.6m² loft above it, while the 72m² workshop provides substantial additional working space.
The loft could lend itself to a games room, home cinema, gym, yoga studio or other leisure use, subject to any necessary permissions.
There is also a games barn with a bar and pool table.
Location
The property is in the centre of Melleran, a village with an active local community. There is a local shop, bar and primary school within the village, while the market town of Chef-Boutonne is just 6km away with a wider range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and services.
The combination of a village setting and extensive accommodation makes this a practical option for someone looking to live in a community rather than in an isolated rural property. The separate gîte also gives the house the flexibility to accommodate extended family, guests or paying visitors, although any future commercial use would require the appropriate permissions and business registration.
