Ryan Walters, Property Consultant with Noovimo, is delighted to present this exceptional detached Charentaise home in the picturesque village of Longré (16) Set within 3,093 m2 of beautifully landscaped gardens, neighbouring the historic Logis de Cherconnay, this elegant property offers an outstanding combination of character, comfort and versatility. Beautifully maintained throughout, it provides four generous bedrooms, four bathrooms, superb reception space and an impressive collection of traditional stone outbuildings. Benefiting from oil-fired central heating, double glazing and a DPE rating of D, it combines authentic Charentaise charm with modern-day comfort. The heart of the home is a spacious farmhouse kitchen with quality cabinetry, generous worktops and a central island, flowing seamlessly into the welcoming living room. Rich in character, the living room features exposed beams, a striking stone fireplace with wood-burning stove and French doors opening onto the gardens, creating a warm and inviting space throughout the seasons. A separate dining room with its own bespoke bar area provides an elegant setting for entertaining, while a walk-in pantry offers excellent additional storage. The ground floor also includes a generous fourth bedroom, currently arranged as a music room. With its vaulted ceiling, exposed roof trusses and French doors opening onto the terrace, it offers excellent flexibility as a guest bedroom, home office or creative studio. A spacious family bathroom and traditional stone wine cellar complete the ground floor. Upstairs, a charming landing with exposed stonework and original beams leads to three exceptionally generous bedrooms, each enjoying the privacy of its own en-suite bathroom. The impressive principal suite features a spacious en-suite incorporating a dressing area at one end, creating an elegant and practical private retreat. Outside, the landscaped gardens have been thoughtfully designed to provide year-round colour and interest. Sweeping lawns are complemented by mature specimen trees, beautifully manicured trees, colourful lavender borders and established planting, creating a peaceful and private setting. A raised stone terrace provides the perfect space for outdoor dining, while a substantial gravelled parking area offers ample space for multiple vehicles, a motorhome or caravan. The traditional stone outbuildings are a standout feature of the property, offering extensive workshop space, garaging and storage, together with exciting future potential, subject to the necessary permissions. One barn has already been transformed into a delightful covered entertaining area, perfect for summer dining, family celebrations or relaxing with friends. Located just 8 km from Villefagnan, 13 km from Aigre, 17 km from Ruffec and 18 km from Mansle-les-Fontaines, the property enjoys easy access to shops, restaurants, schools and healthcare.
