About this Property

EXCLUSIVE TO BEAUX VILLAGES! Close to Surgères with its weekly market and TGV train station, this beautiful 18th century residence has been tastefully renovated, retaining the character of the property and the aspect of the period.

Entering through the large, classic gates, you arrive at the well-kept garden with a heated 10 x 5m swimming pool and pool house and, in front of the house, a south-facing terrace. On the ground floor, all the rooms are luminous, full of old-world charm and spacious. From the entrance hall, the original staircases lead to the landing, to the left a master suite with luxury bathroom, to the right two further charming bedrooms with views of the garden, wc and bathroom.

An annexe offers the possibility of revenue (subject to necessary permissions), or independent accommodation for your guests with kitchen/dining room, independent entrance, 2 bedrooms and a small garden surrounded by hedges and therefore very private. To the rear, parking for several cars and direct access to the annexe and main kitchen.

A magnificent park of large oak trees ensures lovely shady walks and, if you're lucky, truffles! With nothing to do but put down your suitcases, life on the estate awaits you...

Poitou-Charentes

Bernay-Saint-Martin

Poitou-Charentes

From the beaches of the Charente-Maritime through the Charente and Deux-Sevres to the lush green of the Vienne, Poitou-Charentes has something for everyone.  Coastal towns with some of the highest number of sunshine days per year, Cognac and goat’s cheeses (what a combo!) and fine properties set in pretty and unspoilt countryside.   And the value for money here has to be seen to be believed!

Testimonials

    Testimonial by Stuart and Lucy Binns

    As most people know, buying or selling a property is always complicated, especially if the process takes place across two countries.We recently sold our second home in Southwest France during a time when the market was not particularly vibrant. It was a difficult experience as it was a property we were very fond of.The whole process was handled by Judith Whitlow, who took care of the sale and of us with great aplomb.Not only was the process an emotionally demanding one, it was also subject to huge complexities – legal, technical, financial, and procedural.Judith’s fluency in French and English was vital, but her knowledge of all the myriad details, from the workings of fosse septiques to the nuances of tax law (in both countries) made a dangerous administrative minefield much easier to negotiate.In short, she guided us along the entire journey with great professionalism and personal empathy.We couldn’t recommend her, or Beaux Villages, more highly.
