House in Barbezieux Saint Hilaire, 8 Rooms, 341 m²

Property Description

A Characterful Residence to Reinvent - Authenticity, Absolute Tranquility, and Rare Potential. At the end of a discreet driveway, the arrival at the property immediately sets the tone. Passing through an ancient gateway, a true architectural signature, leads into a vast, sheltered, and characterful inner courtyard. The entire property exudes a rare authenticity, with its stone buildings, expansive period features, and harmonious layout. Here, tranquility is real and profound - with no direct neighbors, in an open environment where only agricultural landscapes punctuate the view. The main house offers approximately 340 sqm of living space, with generous proportions and preserved period features: exposed beams, high ceilings, fireplaces, and a fluid flow between the living areas. The reception areas provide a spacious and welcoming living environment, including a living room and kitchen of over 30 sqm each. The sleeping quarters comprise five remarkably sized bedrooms (between 25 and 36 sqm), along with two bathrooms. The property now requires a complete overhaul (kitchen, bathrooms, finishes, and repairs to some walls and ceilings), paving the way for a coherent and valuable renovation project. The technical foundations are solid: o sound structure o recently installed heat pump heating o compliant sanitation system o double-glazed PVC windows. Outside, the potential is fully realized: o an impressive barn of approximately 200 sqm o a second outbuilding of approximately 67 sqm o a three-car carport o a well-structured courtyard, a true living space o a pleasant covered terrace/patio, ideal for outdoor dining. This property will not appeal to those who are 'turnkey,' but rather to those who value ambiance, character, and authenticity, qualities that are increasingly rare. A place for those who appreciate character, seeking tranquility and a project that reflects their own vision.
