Douzat, Charente 16290

Exclusive To Beaux Villages! This spacious estate comprises a main residence of around 290 m² together with two substantial contemporary estate buildings (approximately 750 m² and 200 m²), a number of smaller ancillary buildings, and stabling for two horses. Set in a peaceful semi-woodland setting near the market town of Rouillac, and just a short drive from the departments capital city, Angoulême, this spacious property sits within approximately 6 hectares of gardens, woodland and pasture. Thanks to its size and layout, the property offers a range of possibilities. It could serve as a comfortable family home, an equestrian property, or a smallholding. The house is well arranged. The ground floor includes a double-height entrance hall, a farmhouse kitchen, and an open-plan sitting and dining room on one side. On the other side are two offices, a ground-floor bedroom with ensuite bathroom, and a dressing room. Upstairs there are four further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Doors from the kitchen and living area open onto a covered terrace overlooking the swimming pool. A second terrace on the opposite side of the house provides additional space for outdoor dining and relaxation. The house is surrounded by attractive gardens, with open rural views from the front. Beyond the gardens are areas of woodland and paddock/grassland. Within the grounds there are two large outbuildings. The largest is currently used as a museum for horse-drawn coaches and carriages and incorporates a spacious workshop or studio. The scale and versatility of these buildings form an important part of the propertys overall value. Although set in the countryside, the property is not isolated. The nearby village offers everyday amenities, and the Tgv station at Angoulême is approximately 18 km away, providing convenient transport links.
