Romagne, Vienne, France

This detached, 2 bedroom farmhouse has been beautifully renovated but retains all its original charm and character. The property comes with a pretty garden and is just a few minutes from the village of Romagne, which has basic shops including a bakery and grocers. The larger towns of Couhé and Civray are both within easy reach.

The rooms are light and airy and all beautifully decorated. There’s a total of 91m2 of habitable space and the layout is as follows:

Ground floor:

Entrance hall with original stone sink

Laundry-room with water heater, WC, sink and plumbing for washing machine (there’s space here for a shower if required).

Large farmhouse kitchen (28m2) with built-in hob/oven and butler sink. 

There’s also a cosy dining and seating area with a large log burner that’s set into the original Charentaise fireplace.  An old-style stone cooking slab and oven has been retained in the corner of this room. 

A double aspect living room (30m2) is light and airy and also has a log burner in the original fireplace. 

Oak stairs lead to the first floor.

First floor:

Stairs lead up to the landing area (with large window) and into the first double bedroom (30m2), which has the original windows. The second bedroom (28m2) has velux windows as well as the original windows. Both bedrooms have lovely pine floors and plenty of space for wardrobes, if required. 

The bathroom and hallway separate the 2 bedrooms. 

The furniture and contents are available by separate negotiation. 

Outside:

The house has a small lawned garden that surrounds the property itself and there’s a larger plot directly opposite the house. This would make a perfect vegetable patch. There’s also a lovely covered terrace area, perfect for al fresco dining. A large barn of 35m2 is attached to the house, ideal for storage and for logs. 

Location: 

The property is situated on a very quiet country lane, in a rural hamlet not far from the village of Romagne, with its grocery, bakery and bar. The house is surrounded by lovely countryside, with lots of sunflowers in the summer months.

The delightful market towns of Civray, Gencay and Couhé are 17km, 15km and 11km respectively. Poitiers, with its airport and TGV station is 40mins away. 

There are plans for a wind farm to be created about 750m from the house. A test mast has recently been installed.
