An 18th-century manor house, with a stately character, nestled within 8.5 hectares of unspoiled nature. Away from any disturbance, at the end of a wooded lane, this estate offers a rare setting: a completely natural environment, with no noise other than that of the countryside. The 8.5 hectares, all in one piece, blend meadows, undergrowth, and a pond of approximately one hectare fed by a stream. Surrounding it, the woods stretch as far as the eye can see, guaranteeing absolute tranquility. The heart of the estate is a manor house whose origins may date back to an earlier noble or seigniorial settlement, rebuilt and remodeled in the 18th century. Several elements attest to this: a monumental porch dated 1773, openings altered in 1755 and 1784, and older foundations still visible. The entire structure has survived the centuries without losing its character. Meticulously maintained, it is presented today in remarkable condition, with over 600 m² of living space and a partially convertible third floor of 230 m². The rooms are spacious, the layout is fluid, and the original features – terracotta tiles, parquet floors, fireplaces – have been carefully preserved or restored. The house is organized into two interconnected wings, making it ideal for a large family, for separating private spaces, or for developing a hospitality business without compromising the architectural coherence. Exceptional outbuildings bear witness to a once-thriving agricultural estate. Like many properties in the Charente region, the estate has evolved over the centuries: farming, winemaking, livestock breeding… This history is still evident in its outbuildings, which total over 1,500 m²: a former wine cellar, press and vat rooms, a barn and stable with storage on the upper floor, a former distillery, workshops, carports, a former forge, an agricultural shed, a heated orangery, and a separate 85 m² caretaker's cottage converted from the old bread oven. These buildings, most of which are in very good structural condition, offer rare potential: equestrian activities, gîtes (holiday cottages), workshops, storage, receptions, a collection, or simply a spacious and cohesive living environment. The park extends the estate's history: hornbeam avenues structure the space, meadows recall its former agricultural purpose, undergrowth preserves the spirit of the ancient land, and the pond surrounded by trees provides a tranquil landscape. This unspoiled setting creates a rare harmony where the buildings and nature seem to have evolved together for generations. A truly exceptional property. This estate combines what is becoming almost impossible to find today: an authentic and sound old manor house, complete and well-integrated outbuildings, a preserved natural environment free from any disturbances, a history that is both clear and respected, and significant potential without compromising the spirit of the place. An ensemble that has survived the centuries while retaining its soul, and which now awaits a new chapter, in keeping with what it has always been: a grand Charentaise estate, solid, elegant, and deeply rooted in its landscape. Agency fees are payable by the buyer, amounting to 4.00% including VAT of the price excluding fees.

A 19TH-CENTURY ORIENTALIST RESIDENCE South-West France — between the Cognac vineyards and the Gironde estuary Some properties are best discovered quietly. In a confidential village of the Charente, this rare residence has stood since 1876, its towers and arcaded façades reflecting one of the most distinctive architectural sensibilities of the late 19th century. It was designed by a scholar of his era — a man drawn to Andalusia, to travel, to the Alhambra — and belongs to that small group of French country houses where Moorish and Orientalist references entered the vernacular of Romantic architecture. The construction is uncompromising. Walls of dressed stone, fifty centimetres thick (around 20 inches), keep the interiors cool through the long South-Western summers. Arched windows draw the light deep into the rooms, across original parquet floors. The corner towers each contain a bathroom — an unusual signature of the house. The façades carry stone tracery and blind arcading: the quiet, geometric grammar of Moorish-inspired design, handled here with restraint rather than theatre. Set within a walled park of just under one hectare (approximately 2.4 acres), the residence offers approximately 222 sqm (2,390 sqft) of living space across four levels: 9 principal rooms, 7 bedrooms, several bathrooms, two reception-and-kitchen spaces, and a finished attic level beneath the roof. The proportions are generous; the circulation, intuitive. The grounds include a heated swimming pool with motorised cover, set within mature, romantic gardens. A separate 64 sqm (690 sqft) outbuilding offers further scope — guest accommodation, studio, wellness pavilion — and a second structure stands among the trees. The property currently operates as a high-end seasonal rental (twelve guests, annual income in the region of €30,000), and is fully prepared for its next chapter: a country residence of character, a prestige guesthouse, or a discreet venue for private events and writers' retreats. Every element is in place. 45 minutes from Cognac. One hour from Bordeaux. Two hours from the Atlantic coast. Guide price: €620,000 — agency fees included, payable by the vendor. EPC: Class F. Full diagnostic and energy audit reports available.
