Payroux, Charente 86350

A38297LW86 - This outstanding stone property is steeped in history as far back as the 12th Century, rebuilt in the 16th century, and still possessing some fabulous original features including a wonderful stone staircase and attractive fireplaces. One side of the building is currently habitable, with a delightful country kitchen and bathroom on the ground floor and comfortable living room and 2 bedrooms with stunning river views on the first floor. The other side of the building is mid-renovation, with good quality double glazing installed, and will make a gorgeous large family home or perhaps a unique chambre d'hôtes offering guest accomodation. The grounds slope gently down to the river and are a haven of peace amongst the established trees and shrubs with a vegetable patch closer to the house and terrace. There is a private courtyard at the front of the property as well as a small attached house, with its own courtyard, requiring renovation, that would be the ideal gîte.
