Eymouthiers, Charente 16220

This residence is far more than a simple 2009 construction it is the fruit of three years of passionate self-building. Influenced by a long life in French Polynesia, the owners designed and built this wooden sanctuary themselves, infusing it with a philosophy of life centered on light and environmental respect. Perched on the heights of Eymouthiers, the property enjoys a commanding position offering 360-degree views over the Charente valleys, in the immediate vicinity of the Dordogne. Upon arrival, the elegance of the timber structure is striking, surrounded by a 3,540 m² park designed as a generous ecosystem. Inside, the master carpenter owner's craftsmanship is evident in every detail. The custom-made staircase and furniture feature soft, rounded lines, bringing a unique signature to the contemporary architecture. The living area of nearly 70 m² boasts high ceilings and a handcrafted mezzanine overlooking the space. The fully equipped kitchen, open to this main volume, creates a fluid conviviality with direct access to the covered terrace for meals facing the panorama. The sleeping quarters include a 15 m² master suite with its own shower room, as well as two 18 m² bedrooms with built-in wardrobes. A second shower room and an entrance/laundry room complete the 165 m² of living space. Impeccably finished and rigorously maintained, this house is move-in ready with no work required: a true cocoon where you only need to unpack your bags. The exterior is an ode to biodiversity and family. The orchard, planted with passion, offers a wide variety of fruit throughout the seasons. The vegetable gardens, built for the joy of grandchildren, sit alongside numerous floral beds and beautiful trees that color the estate. To maintain this lush nature, an 8,000-liter rainwater harvesting tank is judiciously installed. The choice of materials and equipment was guided by a search for efficiency. In winter, a high-performance wood insert provides the main heating with an air distribution system to the bedrooms, while reversible geothermal energy and a 'Canadian well' ensure highly effective natural cooling in summer. Finally, a vast 110 m² workshop-garage (timber frame on a concrete slab) offers exceptional potential for any creative or professional project. Just 5 km from Montbron, this 'Journey-House' is a place of legacy where craftsmanship meets nature. Ideally located 40 km from Angoulême (Tgv station) and close to shops and services, you will immediately appreciate this home for its unique style, energy comfort, and the profound sense of well-being it inspires.
