Our local agent Andy Portsmouth offers you this outstanding maison de maître with coach house amongst mature gardens in the centre of the popular and scenic small town of L'Isle Jourdain. Surrounded by 6.5 acres, the house is set well back from the street and is accessed through electric gates, with large trees on either side as you approach the house, coach house, and a 320m2 garage. The front of the property faces on to a wooded area while the rear of the house opens on to the park with a large terrace, gardens, flowerbeds, an ornate fountain and an in-ground 10m x 5m heated swimming pool. The large south-facing terrace, which is not overlooked, is a great place to relax or entertain in total privacy while enjoying views of the gardens and park, and across the valley. The property currently operates as a successful luxury chambres d’hôtes and is the best in the area, welcoming clients from the local motor racing circuit, holidaymakers, people making family visits and guests simply passing through on overnight stays, due to the central and convenient location of L’Isle Jourdain. The property feels very private, despite its town-centre position, with the views from the house and terrace allowing you to feel as though you are in the countryside. However, it is only a two-minute walk through the gardens to the side gates and into the town centre where you will find a range of amenities including restaurants/cafés, a bakery, doctors, dentist, pharmacy, schools, hairdressers and a large supermarket. Inside the house on the ground floor, the wide hallway stretches from the front to the back of the house with doors at either end opening on to the gardens. The elegant living room (44m2) is on one side of the hallway with dining and lounge areas, whilst the spacious traditional French-style kitchen and a small sitting room with log burner, and a WC, are on the other. There is also a 47m2 conservatory which has a high ceiling, double glazing, air conditioning and electric shutters, and wonderful views over the gardens and beyond. The conservatory has its own outside access to the park via steps and a wheelchair ramp. The owners have a restaurant licence 3 (they can sell alcohol to residents). On the first floor, the landing stretches from the front to the back of the house with double doors at either end leading to balconies with views of the woodland and the valley of the river Vienne. This floor boasts three large bedrooms - a master suite with bedroom, huge bathroom (bath, walk-in shower, twin basins), WC and closet, and two further bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom – all beautifully presented. On up the elegant oak staircase to the second floor (where again there is a front-to-back landing) and you will find a bedroom suite with walk-through wardrobe area and large ensuite bathroom with bath, WC and twin basins. Also on this floor there are two very spacious bedrooms and a shower room with WC. There is also access to the loft space via a trapdoor and pull-down ladder. The views from all rooms here are amazing. Beneath the ground floor and conservatory is a spacious and well-kept semi-basement (149m2) accessible by a lift or stairs. This offers access to potential further living accommodation (2 rooms), a boot room with heating, boiler room and laundry, cave (with well) and tank room. Attached to the house, with internal wheelchair access to the house, is a garage with mezzanine, (this could be used as a games room). The house is double-glazed, has central heating and is on mains drainage. The coach house offers considerable potential. There are three apartments in situ – one newly-renovated with wheelchair access, which has an open-plan living area with kitchen plus two bedrooms, WC and shower room, then there are two apartments to renovate. The coach house also contains a large garage with central heating boiler, a wood store and a tool store. There is ample space to create even more apartments in this building. The large two-storey garage/workshop offers 160m2 on each of two floors (both with vehicle access), with large entrances and windows, electricity and water. This has the potential to become further accommodation, to host workshops perhaps, or for showcasing a motor vehicle collection. Beyond the garden a bridge crosses a stream (after which the house is named) to a large field offering potential for a range of uses (a plot of 5600m2), and which has an outline planning certificate for housing, saying that construction is possible and outlining the relevant rules. The park extends to 6.5 acres (2.7 hectares) and so could appeal to clients with equine or other recreational interests. The nearby Vienne river offers two reservoirs (angling, kayaking, zip wires), and stunning scenery with a wide range of regional tourist amenities in under an hour’s drive away. The property and its park are centrally located in France close to major north-south and east-west routes, an hour’s drive from the airports at Poitiers and Limoges and 2½ hours from the airport at Bordeaux. The TGV from Poitiers to Paris takes from 1 hour 25 minutes. It is unusual to find a such a well-located and well-appointed property still with the potential for further custom development in a town centre location. Such properties with so much land rarely come onto the market.
