Description

A46466SOE36 - The property is approached via a pedestrian gate at the front, with separate vehicular access from the side.

An impressive original wooden double entrance door opens into a welcoming hallway (9.8 sq m) that extends through the house to the rear garden. The exceptional ceiling height immediately creates a wonderful sense of space and grandeur.

To the right, an inner corridor (3.3 sq m) leads to a versatile bedroom or study (7.5 sq m), featuring a large window overlooking the front of the property.

The spacious principal bedroom (24.4 sq m) enjoys triple-aspect windows with views over both the front of the house and the gardens, flooding the room with natural light. Built-in wardrobes provide excellent storage. The adjoining en-suite shower room (7.5 sq m), with a window overlooking the garden, is beautifully appointed with a large walk-in shower, WC and a dual washbasin vanity unit. A second door provides convenient access from the corridor, allowing the shower room to serve both ground-floor bedrooms if required.

A doorway from the entrance hall opens into the impressive dual-aspect sitting room (30.8 sq m), a light-filled space centred around a striking stone fireplace with a wood-burning insert, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Windows to both the front and rear provide delightful views over the gardens.

The spacious kitchen (22.5 sq m) is fitted with an extensive range of base, wall and full-height units, offering excellent storage and workspace. A window overlooks the front garden, while a door opens directly onto the rear garden, making outdoor dining and entertaining effortless as there is a delightful east-facing covered terrace outside the rear of the property.

Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room (3.8 sq m) with plumbing for a washing machine and a WC.

A wooden staircase rises from the sitting room to the first floor, where a generous open-plan living area (31.9 sq m) leads through to a spacious sleeping area with window overlooking the front of the property (17.8 sq m). This floor also includes a shower room with WC (3.0 sq m), together with a substantial storage room (10.5 sq m) and an additional loft area (19.4 sq m), offering excellent potential for further development, subject to the necessary permissions.

Nestled at the rear of the garden, the charming detached guest cottage (gite/maison d'amis) provides ideal accommodation for guests or holiday lets. It comprises a characterful studio room with a large fireplace, a galley kitchen and a shower room.

The main property has gas central heating (village gas), complemented by the wood-burning insert in the sitting room. It is connected to mains drainage, and hot water is provided by both gas and electric water heaters.

The property also benefits from a range of useful outbuildings, including two garages and a separate workshop with a loft area above, providing excellent storage, workspace or potential for a variety of hobbies.

The delightful, mature gardens are a particular feature of the property. Beautifully landscaped with established trees and shrubs, they offer a high degree of privacy and create a peaceful setting for outdoor living. Nestled within the gardens is the swimming pool, providing the perfect place to relax and enjoy the tranquil surroundings during the warmer months.

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.
