August 24, 2010 by futureva · Leave a Comment 

A great opportunity to immerse yourself in French rural living. Two houses for the price of one! 

The first is ideal for a couple and ready to move into.  Retirement or holiday home.  Large lounge, master bedroom, glazed veranda.  Outside there is large heated pool in private garden, a pool house with wc, and wonderful open views to three sides of rolling countryside.

The second property has numerous options to provide further holiday accommodation for family and friends or to provide an income – some work to do, but well worth investigating.

Set in a small agricultural hamlet, but only a few minutes from the typical Charentaise village of Charras, with its chateau, shops and bar/restaurant.

Fifteen minutes drive to nearest supermarkets, banks etc at Villebois Lavalette or Soyaux.  Bit more to the thriving Charente department centre of Angoulême, for serious shopping, cultural venues and many restaurants in the vibrant old town. TGV connections to Bordeaux, Paris and London St Pancras.  Just over an hour to Limoges airport, with many budget flight connections to several UK airports.

Great base to explore this part of France.  Few minutes east and you are in the Dordogne – 20 minutes to Brantôme.  Go west and travel through Cognac country to the Atlantic coast warmed by the Gulf Stream. Seaside resorts, fishing villages, seafood and the delightful islands of Ré and Oleron.
