Magnificent 10th Century Manor Set on 3 Hectares And River Frontage - €473,500

This exceptional 10th-century residence combines history and character, with remarkably well-preserved original features: stone tower, exposed stone walls, beams, flagstones and cœur de demoiselle stonefloor.A rare property offering charm, authenticity, and modern comfort.
The residence consists of two wings connected by an open passageway on the ground floor. The first wing, which includes three bedrooms, features a tower with a stone spiral staircase, while the second wing, also made up of three bedrooms, completes this spacious and well-balanced home.
The layout easily allows the two wings to be separated to create two independent dwellings, thanks to two water and electricity meters, as well as two all-water septic systems with drainage.
The property benefits from double glazing throughout, along with two hot-water tanks—one oil/solar and one electric—providing modern comfort and energy savings. Central heating is a mixed oil/wood system. Traditional interior rendering in lime-hemp plaster.
The estate extends over 2 hectares of sloping land descending to the Charente River, offering exceptional views and a preserved natural setting. Located just 10 km from Civray and Ruffec, it combines tranquillity, rural charm, and easy access to amenities.
A rare opportunity to acquire a historic residence that blends charm, authenticity, and flexible potential.
