luxury houses for sale Charente, France

In Charente, at the gates of Angoulême, a Charente residence from the 19th century, its outbuildings, and its swimming pool on 3 hectares of wooded land. The building complex is organized according to the traditional layout of old Charente farms: a main living building, extended and framed by outbuildings forming a semi-closed courtyard in a U-shape. The main house, built of rendered stone, features a sober architecture topped with a hip roof, inspired by rural styles. The arrangement of the façade, punctuated by regular openings, reflects a pursuit of balance rather than grandeur. The discreet but structuring window frames emphasize the rigor of the composition. The roof of the outbuildings, with its two slopes, follows the local tradition, with a moderate pitch suited to the region's climate. The clear and readable volumes testify to a construction designed to last, where each element serves a specific function. On either side, the outbuildings—barns, stables, and annexes—exhibit a more rugged form. Their generous proportions, large openings, and frameworks reflect their original agricultural purpose. The U-shape layout is not merely functional: it creates a protected inner courtyard that is almost intimate, sheltered from prying eyes. Thus, the whole forms a small coherent and hierarchical territory in itself, where living and working once coexisted in harmony.This description has been automatically translated from French.

True luxury is rarely measured in square metres. Sometimes it is found in a place where time seems to have stood still, yet every modern comfort has been thoughtfully embraced. Nestled at the end of a peaceful hamlet, just ten minutes from Angoulême and only 12 km from the TGV station, this beautiful Charentaise country house enjoys an exceptional setting. Surrounded by open countryside, with nothing but birdsong and the gentle sounds of nature, it offers a rare sense of peace, privacy and space. Beyond its stone walls, the house reveals a remarkable blend of authenticity and contemporary comfort. Original stonework, exposed timber and generous proportions sit effortlessly alongside carefully considered modern renovations. Every improvement has been carried out with sensitivity, preserving the character of the property while creating a home designed for today's way of living. At its heart lies an impressive double-height living room beneath a magnificent exposed roof structure. The fireplace, wood-burning stove and mezzanine create an atmosphere that is both elegant and welcoming — equally suited to entertaining family and friends or enjoying quiet evenings by the fire. Flowing naturally from the reception room, the spacious, light-filled kitchen forms the true heart of the home. Designed with premium materials and high-quality appliances, it combines beauty, practicality and warmth. It is a space created not only for cooking, but for sharing everyday life and memorable moments around the table. The layout has been thoughtfully designed to offer both generous living areas and complete privacy. An independent section of the house provides ideal accommodation for family and guests, a home office, or the opportunity to generate additional rental income without compromising the harmony of the property. Outside, the landscaped gardens of approximately 3,600 m² have been designed to be enjoyed rather than maintained. The swimming pool, shaded terraces and open views across the surrounding countryside create an environment that changes beautifully with the seasons. Here, the feeling of space comes not from the size of the grounds, but from the unspoilt landscape that surrounds them. What truly sets this property apart, however, is the extraordinary level of care it has received over the years. Every improvement has been undertaken not out of necessity, nor in preparation for a sale, but from a genuine desire to preserve and enhance this remarkable home. The result is a property that combines timeless character with exceptional modern comfort. A historic Charentaise home that has gracefully embraced the present while preserving the soul of its past. Agency fees are payable by the buyer, amounting to 4.00% including VAT of the price excluding fees.
