Description
Set in a peaceful rural position near Rouillac and within easy reach of Angoulême, the property extends to approximately 5.68 hectares and includes a main house of around 290 m², two large outbuildings of approximately 750 m² and 205 m², further ancillary buildings and stabling for two horses.
The house is generously proportioned and well arranged. On the ground floor, a double-height entrance hall leads to a farmhouse-style kitchen, a spacious sitting room and dining area, together with two offices, a ground-floor bedroom, bathroom, dressing room and laundry room. This layout offers excellent flexibility, with the possibility of single-level living, guest accommodation or working from home.
Upstairs, there are four further double bedrooms, a family bathroom, a shower room and a large landing area.
The main living spaces open onto a covered terrace overlooking the swimming pool, creating an inviting area for outdoor dining and summer entertaining. A second terrace on the opposite side of the house offers another pleasant space to relax and enjoy the surrounding gardens.
The grounds are a major feature of the property. Around the house are attractive mature gardens, while beyond are areas of woodland, pasture and grassland, giving the property a private and natural setting without being isolated.
The outbuildings are exceptional in scale. The largest, around 750 m², is currently used to display horse-drawn coaches and carriages and includes a large workshop or studio area. A second substantial building of around 205 m² adds further flexibility. Together, these buildings offer remarkable potential for collectors, vehicles, storage, workshop use, creative projects, equestrian needs (sand school / manège) or other uses, subject where necessary to the appropriate permissions.
Although the property enjoys a quiet countryside setting, everyday amenities are available in the nearby village, with Rouillac around 12 km away and Angoulême TGV station approximately 18 km away.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial country estate with a large family house, pool, land, stabling and almost 1,000 m² of major outbuildings. It will particularly appeal to buyers looking for space, privacy and serious practical potential in the Charente countryside.
