Property Description
This majestic and rare to the market stone property bordering the river Clain is believed to have been built in the 14th Century with its foundations dating back to the 12th Century. The riverside property is situated in an elevated position in a quiet hamlet, with fabulous views of its extensive gardens and woodland on just under 3 acres.The property is made up of 2 wings, one is habitable and the other requires renovation. On the ground floor of the habitable area, a lovely kitchen and dining area with doors to both the front and rear elevations and direct access to the impressive rear terrace overlooking the garden and further river views. A large wood burning stove provides the heating. To the rear of the kitchen there is a bathroom with WC.From the front door the original stone staircase winds to the first floor of the habitable area. Here the living room offers a wood burning stove, high ceilings, exposed beams and leading from it, two bedrooms each with fabulous views. The rest of the property requires renovation work to achieve its full potential and restore the former glory of this rare property locally know as Le Vieux Château.Originally, one tower stood proud on the building, but it sadly collapsed during a storm.The property boasts much of the original stonework, fireplaces and work which has already commenced includes double glazed windows throughout. Attached to the side of the main house is a smaller property which would make an ideally guest cottage or holiday gîte let and has its own courtyard and access from the rear to the gardens.Whilst maintaining close village links, enjoy the peacefulness of this countryside location, property and gardens in comfort whilst renovating the remaining wing of the property and fulfilling the potential of this historic building. A very rare find in todays market.
