A charming spacious house with a lovely big kitchen opening onto a huge breakfast room. There's also a formal dining room to suit a change of mood. Great location on the borders of the Dordogne and the Charente. |

Location |
This impressive 19th century property, with origins dating back to the 15th century, has been lovingly restored and is conveniently situated 600m from a road leading to Angoulême (some road noise can be heard). It is located 2km from the small village of Montlieu-la-Garde, where there are basic shops and restaurants.
A better selection of shops and services can be found in the larger town of Montendre (12km) which also has facilities for bicycle hire, horse riding and tennis, and a 9 hole golf course. There is a leisure lake at 8km. The interesting towns of Bordeaux (60km), St Emilion (48km) and Cognac (60km) are easy to reach. The property enjoys close proximity to some of the well-known wine producing centres including Blaye, Médoc, Pomerol, Entre-Deux-Mers and Sauternes. |

Exterior |
| Located on a plateau, the grounds encompass 50 hectares of parkland with views of the surrounding countryside and vineyards. Set in a paved terrace at the edge of the park is the swimming pool, and there is a beautiful terrace shaded by chestnut trees, ideal for outdoor dining. |
| |
Interior |
The property is attractively and elegantly decorated with a combination of rustic and antique furniture. A large entrance hall gives onto two comfortably furnished living rooms with open fireplaces, one of which is slightly more formal. The dining room has an elegant table which will comfortably seat 12 persons, and the modern, well-equipped kitchen has an open fireplace and a spacious dining area for 8-10 persons. There is a separate wc on this floor. All the bedrooms are situated on the first floor; two of the double bedrooms interconnect, as does the single room with a third double bedroom. A bathroom with wc, one separate wc and two shower rooms are also on this floor. The laundry room is on this floor in the tower.
The Annexe is an attractive self-contained building 20m from the Main House. It has been carefully restored and offers ideal separate accommodation for a family with one or two small children. |
