This little house just 10 minutes from Mansle is an excellent renovation project. The property is practical to envisage work as there is one half which is much more habitable than the other. The older part of the house is stacked in charm with a handsome entrance with stone steps leading into what was the kitchen. The space which opens into a large lounge area offers high ceilings, fire place and parquet floor. Both of these rooms have access to the front garden.
In the slightly more comfortable part of the house you will find a downstairs kitchen and upstairs 2 bedrooms.
There is further attic space above the older part which could be converted into further sleeping area.
The property comes with an outside bin store/wood shed accessed by a droit de passage.
The front garden is well shaded with the trees and has two access points to the cellar.
The old TGV line is the other side of the road.
The entirety needs modernising but with the right owners could make a charming little home without breaking the bank.

The department of Charente is located in the centre-west of France and is part of the Poitou-Charentes region along with Deux Sevres, Charente Maritime and the Vienne department.
Its name as is often the case comes from the river Charente which snakes through the department. Two local dialects are spoken in the area, Saintongeais in the west and Occitan to the east.
Charente is a thriving department for several reasons, Cognac production is one of the most interesting and profitable industries, the export level of approx. 95% is a success, the consumption in France being only 5% (some say they keep the best 5% in France!).
The department has many typical towns, Angouleme in the south east for example hosts an international festival that attracts hundreds of visitors and is not to be missed.
The region is popular with hikers, bikers and nature lovers who like to discover the woodlands, lakes and streams that are part of this amazing landscape.
