BARBEZIEUX SAINT HILAIRE, Charente 16300

Residence of character to reinvent - authenticity, absolute calm and rare potential At the end of a discreet path, the arrival on the property immediately sets the tone. We cross an old porch, a true architectural signature, to enter a vast inner courtyard, protected and full of character. The whole exudes a rare authenticity, with its stone buildings, its vast old volumes and its harmonious organization. Here, the calm is real, deep, with no direct neighbours, in a preserved and open environment where only the agricultural landscapes punctuate the view. The main house has about 340 m2 of living space, with beautiful and very bright volumes and preserved old elements: exposed beams, high ceilings, fireplaces, fluid circulation between the living rooms. The reception areas offer a generous and friendly living environment, including a living room and a kitchen of more than 30 m2 each. The night area consists of five bedrooms with remarkable volumes (between 25 and 36 m2), accompanied by two bathrooms. The property now requires a global update (kitchen, sanitary facilities, finishes, restoration of certain walls and ceilings), giving way to a coherent and rewarding renovation project. The technical fundamentals are solid: -sound structure -heating by recent heat pump -compliant sanitation -PVC double glazed joinery Outside, the potential is fully expressed: -a barn of about 200 m2, impressive by its volumes -a second outbuilding of about 67 m2 -a carport for three vehicles -a structuring inner courtyard, real living space -a pleasant covered courtyard / terrace, ideal for outdoor dining -an orchard with fruit trees -a well A property that will not seduce by the 'turnkey', but by an atmosphere, an arrival and an authenticity that have become rare. A place for lovers of character, in search of calm and a project in their image, close to shops, schools and restaurants. The train station is 25 minutes away, the international airport is 1 hour away.
