Poitou-Charentes, Charente, Confolens, France

Nestling in nearly 11 acres of glorious land with a lake, is this beautifully restored 15th century French Chateau with separate

3 bedroom gite, barn and stables, enjoying far reaching countryside views from its peaceful elevated location near all amenities in Angouleme.

Completely and sympathetically restored retaining the character and former splendour of the building whilst having modern comforts such as underfloor heating throughout. The chateau has been finished to a very high standard inside and out with great attention to quality and detail.

Surrounded by its own grounds which also include a three bedroom house, barn, stables and paddocks.

The main property comprises a large entrance hall that runs nearly the whole length of the house, a garden room with views down to the lake and beyond, and a large kitchen with new quality fitted units and dining area and woodburning stove.

A door leads to the formal dining room with access also from the hall. An open double sided fireplace offers a welcoming seat after dinner and a further living room to relax or work as currently used as a large, comfortable office.

The beautiful stairs lead up to the first floor with four luxurious bedrooms all with en-suite bathrooms, the stairs continue to the second floor with feature ceiling and huge attic space. From the attic it is easy to appreciate the quality and fantastic condition of the recent slate roof.

There is a newly converted separate 3 bedroom gite which comprises on the ground floor a kitchen/dining room, a downstairs shower room, a laundry room, a boot room, a boiler/utility room and a large living room with feature fireplace an wood burner.

Upstairs is a galleried landing with doors to 3 double bedrooms and a bathroom with W.C.

This property would make a fabulous family home, the standard is so good it would be a wonderful place to stay with a luxury hotel feel.

The nearest airport is Limoges 35 minutes away.
