Impressive 9 Bedroomed Stone Property With A Pool And Gite - €378,950

Exceptional 9-Bedroom Property with Established Gite Business and Outstanding Potential
Situated in the southern Deux-Sevres countryside, within easy reach of shops, services, transport links, and local market towns, this impressive 9-bedroom property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious character home with a thriving business already in place.
Established in early 2024, the current owners have successfully developed a profitable year-round gite and guest accommodation business, creating an attractive income stream that can be seamlessly continued by new owners.
Offering approximately 400m2 of habitable space, the property provides exceptional flexibility. The accommodation can comfortably operate with either 4 or 6 guest letting rooms, all benefiting from private en-suite bathrooms. A magnificent reception room creates a warm and inviting space for guests to relax and enjoy the atmosphere of this charming home.
Outside, the lifestyle appeal continues with a heated swimming pool, a converted outbuilding now serving as a stylish bar area, and an attractive summer house.
For buyers not seeking a commercial venture, the property would equally suit a substantial family residence, with guest accommodation, or even two-family occupation.
The property also presents opportunities for a wide range of business or creative projects. Attached to the house is a substantial two-storey barn/garage along with a large workshop, offering excellent potential for studios, artisan workshops, storage, hobby space, or further development (subject to permissions).
The village itself offers a cafe/bar and primary school, while the nearby market towns of Chef-Boutonne and Sauze-Vaussais provide weekly markets, supermarkets, restaurants, and medical facilities. Two railway stations are located within 25 minutes, and Poitiers Airport can be reached in under an hour.
The property is fully enclosed to both the front and rear, and the rear garden includes a discreet separation screen, allowing owners and guests to each enjoy private outdoor areas when required.
Additional benefits include double glazing throughout, pellet burner heating systems, and an excellent energy-efficiency rating,
This is a lovely property with a lot of versatility. The combination of established income potential, flexible accommodation, and lifestyle makes it particularly attractive for buyers looking to relocate to rural France and, if so desired, to pursue a business opportunity
