6 rooms, 306m²,  Character property for sale in Lizant - 445 000 € *

I’m Andy Portsmouth, the local agent for this fabulous renovated detached 15th Century stone house in rolling countryside just outside the village of Lizant.

The house sits back from a quiet lane, behind a stone wall and gravelled courtyard with Magnolia tree. The gardens continue around the house to an in-ground pool, fruit trees and views.

The house and gite have exposed stone walls in the beautiful light-coloured stone of the area, and have double-glazing and insulated roofs.

You enter a wide entrance hallway with the original limestone floor and a WC, leading through the house to the back garden. On your right, a huge double-aspect, double-height living room (83m2) with logburner. On the left-hand side of the entrance hallway, a kitchen-diner (37m2) with stone fireplace and logburner - the kitchen opens onto a terrace near the pool.

Stunning Elm stairs lead up from the entrance hallway to four large bedrooms (24m2 with ensuite of 11m2; 21m2, 17m2, and 13m2), a bathroom (10m2 with WC), a separate WC, and a mezzanine (above the living room). The floors upstairs are beautiful elm (15th century) and chestnut.

Attached, a gite (45m2), garage / workshop (38m2, so enough for two cars), and a storage space (50m2) with its own entrance and windows, suitable for conversion to a second gite. Also, another garage.
The house has oil central heating and cast-iron radiators, the gite electric radiators. The septic tank conforms to current regulations. The pool uses chlorine, and is 10mx5m.

The pictures speak for themselves, this is a stunning property in fabulous condition. The pleasant small towns of Civray and Ruffec with restaurants and supermarkets etc are each about 10 minutes drive.
