luxury farmhouses for sale Poitou Charentes, France

An old sheepfold and its converted tower in a wooded, hillside garden in Charente-Tuscany. A tarmac driveway goes past a little garden shed on its way to a car parking area, laid out around a tree on the north side of the property. A low, curved wall, illuminated at night, has a central opening leading down to the house via a few steps, flanked by the vegetation. Four maple trees border the east side of the property. The rectangular, exposed stone house, with dressed stone surrounds framing its openings, is topped with a low, gable roof, covered with terracotta tiles. On the east side, the slope of the roof is extended on a slightly lower level by a lean-to roof. The north-east corner of the building is enhanced with a square tower, with dressed stone quoins, looking down on to the property. Two roof slopes on the west side are lower. The south side features a veranda, looking out over the surrounding undulating countryside of the south Charente department. A few metres further away, a swimming pool and its olive tree are in a dominant position.

An old, 17th-century chaplaincy, its outbuildings, its swimming pool, its tennis court and its 1 5 ha of parklands in Charente-Tuscany. A secondary road leads to the property via the west, running alongside a thick hedge that opens in line with the setting sun. It then reveals the exteriors of the buildings laid out around a square paved courtyard. The latter is closed by iron gates in two places, on either side of a little house standing on the east side. The main house is on the north side, facing the courtyard, whilst opposite, on the south side, is a large covered area, extended by a barn, followed by a house on the right-hand side of the entrance. On the left-hand side of the latter is a vast, L-shaped barn, with another building adjoining the main house. The L-shape encompasses a swimming pool. The tennis court is further east, on the other side, at the end of the parklands enhanced with tall trees as well as fruit trees.
