Looking for a slice of Paradise? Well, look no further. This fully renovated Charentaise house is actually in Paradise - well, in the hamlet of ?Le Paradis' to be exact which is just a healthy walk or bike ride from the village of Nere which has a good selection of shops and bar/restaurant. The British owners of this lovely house have had it for 20 years and are now parting with it with a very heavy heart. It has been a much loved holiday home for them and is being sold fully furnished, apart from a few items of sentimental value. The property stands on a plot of 1414m2 (a third of an acre) and is a typical Charentaise house. It is stone-built and part rendered. It has been totally re-wired and re-plumbed and oil-fired central heating is installed. All the windows are double glazed (but not the doors). The house is well-positioned, on a quiet lane in the pretty hamlet of Le Paradis, set in peaceful, rolling countryside. It is just 1 mile from the nearest large village with all services (doctor, dentist, physiotherapist, butcher, 2 boulangeries, bar/restaurant, small supermarket, pharmacy, bank, post office, nursery and primary schools, etc.). Various traders call near the house during the week or deliver to order. The historic town of St. Jean d'Angely, with its twice-weekly open-air and indoor markets, international-standard swimming pool and leisure centre, hospital (with casualty department), restaurants, large supermarkets and DIY store, is a short drive. Aulnay is also nearby and a good shopping centre. The coast can be reached in an hour and La Rochelle, Rochefort, Royan and the islands of the Charente-Maritime are all easily accessible. There are international airports at La Rochelle and Poitiers (1 hours), Limoges (1 hours) and Bordeaux (2 hours). The house has a gated, covered entrance which leads through to a gravelled parking area and barn which serves as a garage. On the ground floor, entry is via a glazed porch leading to a very good-sized living/dining room. The fitted kitchen/breakfast room is spacious, with plenty of storage space and the usual appliances, including a dishwasher. Also on the ground floor is a double bedroom, a bathroom with bath, wash hand basin and WC and a separate shower room with enclosed shower, wash hand basin and WC. On the first floor are two more double bedrooms, a WC and an attic which provides very useful storage space. Outside, there are a number of outbuildings. At the front of the house is the boiler room which also houses the oil tank. This also doubles as a games room and is large enough to accommodate a table tennis table. On the left hand side of the covered driveway is the workshop and utility room which measures 11m x 7m. This would readily convert to further 2-storey accommodation for guests or for letting, subject, of course, to the usual consents. The barn is used for garaging but also has good-sized lockable doors for bike storage, freezer etc. Behind the barn are further smaller outhouses, useful for the storage of garden equipment. The garden is mainly lawned but there are beds with shrubs which are connected to an irrigation system. On the gravelled area, is a gazebo with foldable sun shade - just the spot for lazy summer afternoon lunches and barbecues. This property is priced to achieve a quick sale. It is great value and we believe it will attract a good amount of attention. If it seems to tick all the boxes, our advice is to make a very early trip to view as it is not going to be easily repeatable.
