A property of character, blending unspoiled nature with the art of hospitality

EXCLUSIVE TO ESPACES ATYPIQUES

Hidden from view, bordered by the majestic edge of the Benon forest, this former farmhouse, reinvented as a prestigious residence, exudes all the charm of grand family estates combined with exceptional event potential. Behind its electric gate, the property immediately reveals a unique atmosphere: a vast courtyard designed for entertaining, spectacular volumes, the nobility of ancient stone, and open vistas across nearly two hectares of fully enclosed grounds.

Here, every space seems to have been conceived to celebrate the art of living, conviviality, and exceptional moments. From the moment you enter, the tone is set. A staircase leads to an elegant mezzanine, furnished as a television lounge with a video projector, suspended above the main living areas. To the left of the entrance, the living area impresses with its exceptional proportions, nearly 125 square meters, encompassing the kitchen, dining room, and living room beneath a magnificent cathedral ceiling, enhanced by exposed beams and large windows bathed in natural light. A second, more intimate and cozy living room features a fireplace, perfect for cozy evenings.

The ground floor sleeping area offers three bedrooms, a dressing room, a shower room, a toilet, and a separate laundry room. Upstairs, the spaciousness continues with two enormous bedrooms under sloping ceilings, a third bedroom, and a large bathroom with a shower and toilet. Outside, the spectacle continues. The decidedly contemporary swimming pool creates a truly upscale relaxation space with its impressive 20-meter lap pool, central terrace, and submerged areas. A spacious wooden deck also houses a spa, creating an ambiance worthy of the most charming holiday homes. With significant potential, the 1,000 sq m of outbuildings comprise a 250 sq m garage and a 500 sq m two-story building, two annexes of 70 and 50 sq m, as well as a magnificent 76 sq m reception room blending stone, high ceilings, and authentic charm.

This unique layout opens up a world of possibilities: an exceptional family residence, event venue, restaurant, seminar space, high-end guesthouse, or even a venue for weddings and private events. With no immediate neighbors and nestled in a remarkable natural setting, the property enjoys rare tranquility while remaining perfectly connected.

The town benefits from a strategic location between La Rochelle and Surgères. La Rochelle and its old port are approximately 30 minutes away, while Surgères and its TGV station connecting to Paris can be reached in under 20 minutes. Everyday shops, schools, and amenities are located in the immediate vicinity in the village of Benon and the surrounding towns.

An exceptional property, where the elegance of spacious rooms meets the emotional power of a profoundly inspiring place.
