Combiers, Charente 16320

Nestled against the Horte forest, a vast wooded area of over 1,140 hectares crisscrossed by kilometers of hiking and cycling trails, and facing a rolling, southwest-facing rural landscape, this beautiful stone property, comprising a main house and a second dwelling (a converted barn), offers a peaceful and inspiring living environment. Situated on a flat plot of over 2 hectares, the property is located in the immediate vicinity of a small, emblematic, and unspoiled hamlet with only a few houses. A rare setting where tranquility, nature, and authenticity blend harmoniously. The property consists of two independent houses, offering multiple possibilities: a main residence with a guest house or gîte, a family project, or a combination of living space and hospitality. The main house (approx. 128 m² of living space) captivates with its warm atmosphere and old-world charm. The ground floor features a cathedral-ceilinged living room with a fireplace, incorporating a kitchen area, a comfortable lounge or bedroom, and a shower room. Upstairs, three additional, more private bedrooms and a toilet complete the sleeping area. Electric heating and double-glazed wooden windows are installed throughout. The former barn, converted into a dwelling in 2008, offers approximately 185 m² of living space spread over two levels. The rooms are bright and airy, with two living rooms, one with a fireplace, an entrance hall, and three bedrooms with a bathroom. The kitchen remains to be installed, allowing the buyer complete freedom to design and customize it to their needs. The property benefits from roof insulation, electric heating, double glazing, compliant sanitation, and fiber optic internet. The fully fenced grounds are thoughtfully landscaped with a parking area, gate, internal pathways, play areas, and relaxation zones. The property offers an ideal setting to fully enjoy the surrounding nature. Some updating is needed to adapt the homes to current tastes and expectations, but the exceptional quality of the location, the southwest orientation, the immediate proximity to the forest, and the overall charm fully justify this investment. A wonderful lifestyle project in a preserved and almost idyllic environment, while remaining only 10 km from shops, schools, and medical services.
