Character property with swimming pool

Nestled 15 minutes from Saintes, in the heart of a verdant and unspoiled setting, this authentic Charentaise house offers a generous living space of approximately 426 sqm, set within a wooded park of nearly 8,600 sqm, enhanced by its overhanging woodland.

Behind its elegant facade, this former property, meticulously maintained and enhanced over the years, reveals remarkable volumes and a fluid flow between spaces, resulting from the successful renovation of the former wine cellar in the 1990s, now perfectly integrated into the main residence.

From the moment you enter, the tone is set: a vast reception room clad in polished travertine harmoniously leads to the living areas. The library-lounge, bathed in light thanks to its large windows, is arranged around a characterful fireplace and bespoke woodwork. In a similar vein, the warm and inviting dining room opens onto a veranda offering a soothing view of the surrounding nature and woods. Beyond this, an elegant gallery of polished travertine, a true architectural link, leads to the additional living spaces: a library or office, a workshop, a mezzanine, a pantry, a laundry room, and a cellar.

This property offers multiple possibilities: independent living with a kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom; a professional space; or a secondary residence, depending on the project. Upstairs, four bedrooms comprise the sleeping area, including an air-conditioned master suite with a refined atmosphere. Solid oak parquet flooring lends warmth and authenticity to the entire space, while some bedrooms benefit from privileged views of the surrounding landscape.

Additional amenities complete this property: a cellar, a workshop with a mezzanine ideal for a creative space or a separate office, a boiler room, and ample storage.

Outside, the landscaped grounds reveal their full beauty: a variety of trees and shrubs, relaxation areas, a decorative pond stocked with fish, and a well.

The saltwater swimming pool (5.5 x 11 m) with integrated roller shutter blends seamlessly into this natural setting, inviting you to unwind in complete privacy. This property combines old-world charm with spacious family rooms and multiple layout possibilities, making it ideal for nature lovers seeking authenticity and an inspiring home.
