In brief the property comprises of the main house with 4 superior quality suites (each with en-suite shower rooms), 3 good sized reception rooms, a large fitted kitchen, 2 family bathrooms and 3 further bedrooms.

In addition there are 2 newly equipped fully furnished gites, each comprising of kitchen / dining room, lounge, bathroom and a bedroom.

Approached via a quiet lane with no passing traffic, you arrive at a gravelled area in front of the Logis, which is set in grounds of almost 2 hectares, part of which is bordered by a small stream.

You enter the house into an impressive entrance hall 6 x 4 with original flagstone flooring. A very spacious lounge 7 x 6.9 has exposed beams and a stone fireplace. The formal dining room 7 x 6.9, also has a flagstone floor and a stone fireplace. These rooms are all to the front of the property, which is ideally suited as a B & B business.

To the rear of the property, is a large fitted kitchen 6.75 x 4.5 with a good range of units. The owners also have a further reception room 6.75 x 4.5 (formerly a bread oven ) that they keep for their exclusive use.

Also on the ground floor is a bedroom / study 5.3 x 2.7, WC, and rear hall 4 x 3.5, plus the boiler room, housing an oil fired boiler (less than 5 years old).

The 1st floor is approached by a traditional French staircase, leading to a landing. To the front of the house are 2 identical letting suites. Each is a very spacious 7 x 6.9 inclusive of an en-suite shower room. At the rear of the house are 2 smaller bedrooms each measuring 6.9 x 4.5. Also on this floor are 2 family sized bath / shower rooms.

A further staircase leads to the 2nd floor where you arrive at a superb library 6.5 x 4.25. To each side of the library are 2 further en-suite bedrooms mirroring those on the 1st floor.

The property oozes character, with lots of exposed beams, stone walls etc. but is also well insulated and has all new windows and a modern central heating system.

Set away from the Logis are 2 new gîtes, each having their own character and style. They each comprise of a spacious kitchen / dining area, separate lounge, bedroom and quality bathroom. Each gîte has its own private patio area.

Outside the grounds of 18,861m² are well maintained, with a large open fronted barn used for storage and a workshop, whilst a 2nd barn building has been reduced to form a fabulous internal courtyard, that would make a perfect sheltered spot for a swimming pool. There are wide terraces to enjoy the sunshine hours, a well, and an above ground pool.

Located in the Pays Mellois, this superb property is an hour from the coast at La Rochelle, and has a good choice of regional airports and TGV stations. It is increasingly difficult to find a quality property of this standing.
