This lovely South facing 19th Century home, originally a vineyard owner s house is situated in a small hamlet near Mirambeau and the Estuary. It boasts 174m of living space with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.

It was entirely renovated in 2006. Downstairs the heating is underfloor with radiators on the first floor, all powered by a gas boiler. The house is also connected to high speed fibre internet. On the ground floor the sitting room has a fabulous working fireplace, the space is open to the dining room and well-equipped kitchen with separate pantry and utility.

Off the light flooded hall is a double bedroom and a family bathroom. Upstairs are four large bedrooms, three offering en suite facilities. Just outside the kitchen is a good sized patio area ideal for al-fresco dining with the well tended gardens and grounds extending to over 8000 m overlooking fields with superb views and incorporating a boules court. Separated from the main house and garden by a rural lane, occasionally used by the local farmer, is a secure gated play area with a large child-friendly swimming pool (11 x 5m) heated by a heat exchange unit.

Overlooking the pool is an extensive games room and a attached large barn offering scope for further accommodation (subject to any necessary permissions). A further attached barn is used as a store room. The superb enclosed and private pool area with tiled and lawned surrond also boasts a changing room with toilet and shower.

Attached is an outbuilding containing the pool filter. Another small agricultural building is used as a bike shed and a wood store. The property is surrounded by vineyards growing grapes destined for the world famous distilleries of Cognac. It enjoys the favourable sunny micro-climate of the coastal South Charente Maritime.

As well as vineyards are fields of sunflowers, maize and corn. The house has a wonderful view of this countryside sloping away eventually to the Gironde estuary. The property is currently let during the summer, but it could be a lovely family home or continue as a letting business for part of the year (a future owner would need to obtain necessary permission and appropriate business registration).

The furniture and contents are available by separate negotiation. The village of St Ciers du Taillon (about eight minutes away) has good everyday amenities, bakery, butcher, Vival general store/tabac, pharmacy, two restaurants and a pizzeria. Mirambeau (12 minutes) has a well-equipped Super U and a wider range of stores.

Jonzac (25 minutes) is home to Les Antilles de Jonzac, the waterpark with spa, waterslides and water activities for all ages and 40 minutes from the sandy beaches at Meschers sur Gironde, St Georges de Didonne and Royan.

Interested in this property? Don't lose out to currency fluctuations changing the price you pay...

Many overseas buyers in France do not realise they can lose thousands of pounds through adverse currency exchange rate movements.

The property buying process in France takes time; it could be up to six months between seeing the property of your dreams and actually taking ownership. So how much would this €498,000 property cost you?

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £22,007 more.
