ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Information provided in English by the seller (not translated by Babelimmo)
50 km from Bordeaux, this Girondaise property comprises two independent yet attached houses (built in 1855, a 3 bedroom gatehouse, plus outbuildings, all in magnificent undulating grounds of 8 000m² with three lakes, two swimming pools which flow into each other, a tennis court.
The introduction to this lovely property is via a drive which leads you past the lakes, inhabited by graceful white swans, to the house, with its imposing façade to the south.
The house is divided into two independent habitations.
A porch takes you to the front door of the main house (302m²), and this opens into a first entrance hall of 6m², which then leads into a second entrance hall of 17m². This leads off to a library (25m²) and the living / reception room of 45m², which further takes you into the kitchen of 28m² equipped with contemporary and ergonomic fittings and a central workstation with 10 seating places, and which further leads into a secondary kitchen of 35m². Both well and naturally lit, and yet soft and warm, these rooms all open on to the southern terrace, and the flooring is tiled in warm caramel colours, offset by the wooden beams on the ceiling which are painted white.
To the left of the entrance hall you find the master suite (40m²). This comprises a sleeping area, which looks out at the integral pentagonal veranda overlooking the gardens. Behind the bedroom is a washroom, a dressing room, and an independent wc.
A staircase takes you to a half landing, where you find a wc, and a few steps further you are on the first floor, where you find a first bedroom (14m²) fitted with cupboards, another of 25m² with an en-suite bathroom and wood floored terrace (20m²), on which you could sit and enjoy the lovely views over the verdant lawns of your grounds... On this floor there is also another bedroom of 20m² with dressing room and private washroom. These three bedrooms are carpeted, and luminous, and offer a warm feel.
Back at garden level, behind the house, you find several other rooms, including a utility room, a dressing room (6m²), the old fermenting room which currently is used as a games room (30m²), a discotheque (35m²) with a glass covered stone well! There is also the garage (140m²) which can take 8 cars, off which is the boiler room (22m²) which houses the boiler (make 'Brôtje).
The loft space is currently not utilised, however it has enough headroom to create further accommodation.
The second house (190m²) is positioned to the left of the building.
An entrance hall (10m²) serves, to your left, a living room (19m²) with open fireplace and access to the covered southern terrace. Off this room you find the large tiled kitchen (20m²) which has direct access on to a veranda (53m²), an ideal spot for your indoor plants to enjoy both the light and the shade! Also on the garden level, you find a tiled summer room (15m²), with an en-suite wash room whose wood framed windows look out over one of the lakes. Underneath a white painted wooden staircase you find a wc.
On the first floor, a long hallway leads to four bedrooms (17m², 10m², 13m² and 25m²), all south facing, carpeted, and with tapestried walls, and welcoming and light! There is also a wash room with wc (4m²) and a huge games room of 40m² in the eaves of the roof, also carpeted, which could be converted into one or more bedrooms.
In this property, the exterior is as important as the interior. The grounds have been maintained with exquisite taste, and in sympathy with nature as are the current owners. Trees, flower beds, herbaceous borders, water features, have all been created and planted around the house in order to create an atmosphere both serene and bucolic.
To the rear of the house you find a double basin swimming pool, alongside which is a glass fronted pool house complete with a professional kitchen, and a barbecue, for entertaining one's family and friends.... A few steps further up and you come to the tennis courts for those more active...
There is also a gatehouse (four main rooms) on one level, and a metal hangar (open sided barn) which houses the machinery and tools of the garden, there is a stable, a chicken house, an old maisonette which serves to house the wood for the fireplaces and the vine shoots, and a dustbin shelter.
The roof is tiled, the construction is traditional and sound, the heating and hot water are provided by a gas fired boiler. The windows are double glazed and wood and PVC framed, giving excellent insulation, and there is a septic tank for the drainage.
The property is situated about 50km from Bordeaux (TGV, international airport - Ryanair, Flybe), and from the motorway, and from a golf course, 125 km from Royan, 250km from Biarritz, and 540km from Paris. |
