Saint-Martin-l'Ars, Charente 86350

Reference: PFYR-T210657. This beautifully converted barn combines modern efficiency with character features to create an impressive family home. While the interior is largely complete, the exterior offers a blank canvas for new owners to landscape and personalise. At the heart of the property is an exceptional 110 m² open-plan living space, thoughtfully arranged into distinct yet connected zones. The contemporary kitchen flows into generous dining and seating areas, while the striking double-height sitting area, centred around a wood-burning stove, creates a warm and inviting focal point. Large picture windows flood the space with natural light and frame views of the garden, enhancing the sense of space and seamlessly connecting indoors with out. A separate reception room provides excellent flexibility as a snug, home office or playroom. The ground floor also includes a double bedroom, a stylish bathroom with both bath and separate shower, a utility room, and a technical room housing the electrics and heat pump for the underfloor heating, with potential for additional storage or workshop space. Upstairs, a spacious galleried landing overlooks the main living area and offers an ideal spot for a home office or reading area. The principal bedroom benefits from a generous dressing room and an unfinished en suite, ready to be completed to suit individual tastes. Two further double bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom. An attached barn provides excellent additional space for a workshop, studio, hobbies or storage, with large sliding doors opening onto the rear garden. A practical entrance hall at the front of the property creates an ideal everyday entrance, leading through the barn into the kitchen. Outside, a gravelled frontage provides off-road parking, an outbuilding and a pleasant seating area. To the rear, the garden is ready to be transformed into a landscaped retreat, extending to a lightly wooded area and stream that enhance the property's peaceful rural setting. A new septic tank has recently been installed in 2024. The property is situated in a rural hamlet just 4 km from a village with a shop and restaurants, while the larger towns of L'Isle Jourdain, Civray and Confolens offer a wider range of amenities.
