Alloue, Charente 16490

Reference: PFYR-T212328. I'm Andy Portsmouth, the local agent for this traditional Charentaise stone house, set on the edge of the friendly village of Alloue, with its shop, café/bar and other amenities within easy walking distance. The house has four bedrooms and three bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms have their own en-suite shower rooms, while the other two share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. Downstairs, there is a large south-west-facing living room (33 m²) with a log burner, a spacious kitchen (27 m²) with dining area opening directly onto the garden, a separate dining room, TV room, storage room, utility room and WC. Please ask me for the video tour to see the house and its setting in more detail. Just 50 metres from the River Charente, the house occupies a well-elevated position. Attached to the house, a gite with large main room (36m2), 1.5 bedrooms, shower room, and separate entrance. An unusual extra is also available: the seller owns a small woodland of 1.77 hectares, around 6 km from the house. Alloue is a beautiful and friendly village with an active local association organising events throughout the year, including talks on subjects such as mushrooms and archaeology, photography and art exhibitions, fêtes and organised walks. The village also has a good grocery shop with adjoining bar, a hairdresser and a 12th-century church, just 800 metres from the house. A supermarket and doctor are 10 minutes away. The house has fibre internet, modern electrics and is well insulated, as reflected in its excellent C energy rating, particularly impressive for a traditional stone house: insulated walls together with double glazing help keep the house cozy in winter and pleasantly cool in summer. And at the heart of the kitchen is a beautiful gas-fired Aga, which is included in the sale. The house has a modern septic tank. The hot tub and some furniture are negotiable. Please ask for more details.
