Nearly 700 sqm of outbuildings surround the courtyard and reflect the estate’s former wine-producing activity. The old winery still houses two historic wine presses. A traditional bread oven, former laundry area and several wells further enhance the authenticity of the property. These buildings also offer considerable potential for conversion or other uses. Completely private, the courtyard and terrace shaded by a mature chestnut tree provide a wonderful outdoor living area. A few steps lead to the large heated swimming pool and its spacious terrace. The landscaped park features mature lime and plane trees, including an impressive specimen officially classified as an “Arbre Remarquable de France”, as well as an old fishpond fed by the river running along the edge of the property.

Between Saintes and Saint-Savinien, in one of the most sought-after villages along the Charente River, this authentic character property reveals, behind its wrought-iron gate, a world imbued with serenity and history. Nestled in the heart of Taillebourg, an iconic village known for its castle overlooking the valley and its bucolic atmosphere, this elegant house offers approximately 190 sq m of living space within a 1,640 sq m enclosed and wooded garden. Protected by its stone walls, it seems frozen in time, simply waiting for a fresh perspective to reveal its full potential. Traditional shutters, generous windows, and a vast south-facing terrace create an authentic setting where light accompanies every moment of the day.

Currently used as an annex, it also opens the door to numerous transformations: a family kitchen, a creative workshop, a reception room, or additional living space opening onto the garden. A magnificent stone staircase leads to the upper floor, where three generously sized bedrooms and a powder room await. The spaces, the ceiling height, and the windows reveal an ideal setting for a renovation that respects the original character of the house. A large garage, along with substantial outbuildings and an attic, complete the property, offering valuable storage capacity or further potential for expansion.
