ID 7785 · Stone house with a tower and 2,975 m² of land in the Charente countryside

About this house

This stone house with its own round tower stands in a small, quiet hamlet in the Charente countryside, about 5 km by road from Champagne-Mouton with its shops and everyday amenities. The plot measures 2,975 m², with a spacious parcel of land in front of the house and a private courtyard to the side, reached through double gates.

The house has kept its old character: exposed ceiling beams, open fireplaces and an original stone staircase inside the tower. The ground floor has a 56 m² living room/kitchen with its own entrance hall, a 35 m² dining room, a 40 m² living room with a traditional cœur de demoiselle floor and an open fireplace, a 16 m² library that could serve as a ground-floor bedroom or office, a shower room and a separate WC. Upstairs are two large bedrooms of 43 m² and 37 m², both with open fireplaces. Above them is a 95 m² loft, now used as an office and workshop, which could be converted subject to permission.

The broker lists 346 m² of habitable space and 8 rooms (not re-measured), plus an 89 m² barn, a 14 m² shed and an 8 m² terrace. Drainage is by septic tank. The broker lists the condition as "requires renovation" and no heating system apart from the fireplaces; no energy rating applies (DPE non applicable). Property tax is €1,105 per year.

The asking price of €119,900 includes 9% agency fees paid by the buyer (€110,000 excluding fees). Neighbours are close by, as is usual in a French hamlet. Ruffec is about 21 km away and Angoulême about 50 km.
