To the right is the kitchen (11m2) which in turn opens to a large sitting room (32m2). Open plan with the sitting room is the dining room (12m2) which opens back into the entrance hall.

ExteriorThe house sits on a plot of 1974m2. To the front is the traditional Charentaise courtyard with an impressive arched gateway to the village road. To one corner of the courtyard a doorway leads through to the garden (mainly laid to grass). To one end is the swimming pool, next to which is a small outbuilding that now serves as a summer kitchen, overlooking the pool.
