Description

A47995ELM16 - Behind its handsome dressed-stone façade, this elegant town house dating from around 1870 offers generous proportions and plenty of period character.

Ideally situated in the heart of Cognac, the property is within comfortable walking distance of shops, schools and everyday amenities, making it particularly well suited to those looking to enjoy the convenience and lifestyle of a town centre location.

The house is arranged over four levels and retains many of the features one would expect from a property of this period, including high ceilings and a beautiful wooden staircase connecting the floors.

At the main living level, an entrance hall with WC leads into a welcoming dining room, opening onto the sitting room and kitchen. Both the sitting room and kitchen have direct access to the terrace, creating a natural connection between the house and garden. With views over the greenery beyond, the terrace provides a lovely setting for outdoor dining and relaxing.

The first floor provides three generously proportioned bedrooms, a bathroom, a separate shower room and an independent WC, creating a comfortable family sleeping area.

On the second floor, there is a fourth bedroom together with a further versatile room which could be used as an additional bedroom, home office or hobby room. A large attic provides valuable additional storage space.

The lower-ground floor adds another particularly useful dimension to the property. It currently comprises four rooms, including a utility room, cellar, boiler room and workshop. These spaces could be adapted to suit a variety of needs, subject to any necessary permissions, whether as a workshop, hobby area, home office or simply generous storage.

Outside, the mature 341 m² garden is a real asset for a property in such a central location. Green and leafy, it provides a peaceful outdoor space in which to enjoy summer meals, relax or simply escape the bustle of town life.

A characterful Cognac home offering period charm, generous accommodation and the increasingly rare luxury of a private garden within walking distance of the town centre.

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.
