House with vaulted cellars, 7-bedroom, barn, large garage.

With 13th century vaulted cellars in good condition, this beautiful edge-of-village house has three bedrooms downstairs and four upstairs, with a bathroom and WC on each floor. It comes with 6000 m2 of attached land included - these are well cared-for gardens and a field, whilst more attached land is also possible (up to a few hectares). As you will see in the video, the house absolutely retains its original charm, and the rooms are bright. You enter through the elegant porch, to the dining (21m2) and living rooms (18m2) that are open to one-another. The kitchen connects to the dining room, and also to the garden and to the terrace with pergola. Through a doorway from the hallway, steps lead down to those amazing 13th century cellars with vaulted stone ceilings - the cellar also opens to the garden and benefits from daylight (see the video) with steps leading up to the terrace, and so as well as being the ideal place to accumulate your wine, this would make a great place for a dinner party with friends, particularly on a hot summer's day, for example. The house has heat-pump central heating with a gas boiler for back-up (and for the hot water), and is on mains drains. Fibre internet is available here. Outside, a barn (75m2, plus the same again upstairs) is suitable for use as a garage (in the video you'll see a 2CV in it), plus a second garage (120m2) is large enough for a few cars. The house is on the very edge of the village, and the rear of the house faces open countryside. The village has a café-restaurant, a post-office-library, school, and a stunning public trout fishing lake with barbecue area. There are visiting bakery and butcher vans. The small town of L'Isle Jourdain is only 3km away (3 minutes' drive), with supermarket, six café-restaurants, wine shop (with tasting), fuel, car repairs, doctors and dentist, pharmacy, optician, newsagents, bank, garden centre, a DIY/hardware store, a swimming pool, waterskiing and kayaking. €275,000 plus notaire fees of €21,000 (these include all of the registration taxes and fees).

A strong VDSL Internet connection makes it suitable for home or remote working, with fibre optic arriving in the near future (already close-by).

The property is conveniently located 3km (3 minutes drive) from L'Isle Jourdain, a thriving small town on the banks of the Vienne river with local shops, a supermarket, restaurants, and an old railway line perfect for walking and cycling. There are also two reservoirs, ideal for angling, kayaking, and zip-lining, along with stunning scenery and a wide range of regional tourist amenities.

Chateau du Vigeant is steeped in history, bearing the noble legacy of the Poussart family. François Poussart, the original Seigneur du Fors et Baron du Vigean connected their lineage with prominent figures of the era, including the Duchess of Aiguillon and Prince Condé. The chateau witnessed the valor of François-Louis-Jules Poussart, who served under Louis II de Bourbon-Condé and tragically lost his life in 1663. The legacy was carried forward by Armand-Jean Poussart, Marquis du Vigeant, who made the chateau his home from 1686 until 1731. This residence not only offers a luxurious living experience but also a chance to be part of a storied past.

Stone cottage with 80m2 barn,.

I'm Andy Portsmouth, the local agent for this stone cottage with barn dating back to the 11th century, set in the centre of the lovely French village of Le Vigeant. The village has a friendly café-bar/restaurant  just a 1-minute walk from the house, and you're only a 2-minute (2km) drive from the town of L'Isle Jourdain with all services.  The house has recently been fully and tastefully renovated, with new double-glazing, new electrics and plumbing, a restored roof, excellent insulation throughout, plus heat-pump heating reversible to cooling, plus a pellet-fire - creating an amazing characterful yet very comfortable home. And there is easy private parking directly in front of the house. You enter the spacious kitchen and dining room (25m2), which connects to another large downstairs room (also 25m2) that could serve as either a bedroom or dedicated dining room. Stairs lead up to a hallway connecting to a double bedroom (16m2), bright living room (20m2) with balcony and countryside views, and to the large shower room with WC. From the kitchen-diner you access the decking at the rear of the house that faces open countryside, with a pergola and two stone sheds for garden use or storage. At the front of the house, another stone shed, and an 80m2 barn which still has the old forge that was once used for caring for visiting horses and carriages - including those of King Louis on one occasion. This barn offers ample garage space for three cars, with access at the rear to the back garden.  The house is on a charming stone walled-courtyard next to the village's 11th-century church, and most of the house dates back to around the same time, indeed part of the house was originally a tower, and stairs for that are still there. The church bell rings twice on the hour and once on the half hour, from 7am to 10pm, but it is not loud or intrusive. The external walls, internal walls, and roof are all very well-insulated, hence the 'C' rating for energy - this is the maximum possible for an old stone house. Mains drains, fibre internet available. If you want character and comfort, and an easy start in France, or perhaps the perfect lock-up and leave holiday home, come and take a look. Much of the furniture is negotiable. Apart from the café-bar/restaurant, the village has a post office/library, school, and visiting bakery and butcher vans. The town of L'Isle Jourdain is only a 2-minute drive, with six café-restaurants, a large supermarket, bakery, optician, doctors and dentist, pharmacy, ambulances, garden centre, DIY store, garage (repairs), petrol station, wine shop (with tasting..), post office, and bank. Le Vigeant has a beautiful communal lake with trout fishing and a public barbecue area. L'Isle Jourdain has a very nice open-air swimming pool, tennis courts, zip-wires across the river, and two reservoirs - one for waterskiing and kayaking, with café-bar, and the other for fishing.

VIENNE- Extremely RARE 5 Hectare fishing lake with 2 houses overlooking the lake.

Situated in the beautiful countryside of the Vienne in the centre of France is this very rare opportunity to purchase a fully conforming and licenced for commercial use stocked 5-hectare carp fishery with 2 houses overlooking this stunning picturesque lake. The lake has not been used for commercial use in the past 15 years and has only been fished by friends, family, fishing associations and local tackle shops for promo weekends of new tackle yet a record has been kept of all the fish caught with the lake record currently standing at 30kg ( 66lbs) The lake was stocked many years ago and contains mirror carp, grass carp, common carp, pike, zander, black bass, perch and plenty of silverfish, the French owner will not agree to drain or net the lake, as he is passionate about this lake and insists draining a lake compromises the biochemistry and ecologie of the lake which holds natural food sources for the fish such as freshwater muscles. The fish caught are extremely healthy and dated photographic proof along with weights are available during a visit, the current estimated value of recently caught stock is around 150 000€. The lake also has a small stock pond where the owner has a Kio Carp breeding programme in place, the main lake holds some huge koi carp as well.   The potential to create a thriving business here is huge, as this lake is a hidden gem that has never been marketed to the carp fishing industry, therefore something new and untouched. A recent 72-hour fishing weekend with 4 French anglers produced over 48 fish all over 20kg. The lake has a total of 10 swims 5 of them have wooden cabins, and the other 5 are open swims for bivvies and a toilet shower block, which has seen others I would classify this as 5-star accommodation in comparison. The complete walk around the lake is 1km with vehicle access available right around the lake, although the owner does not allow cars around the lake. The property comes with 2 houses, the first house comprises an old stone farmhouse renovated and comprising of on the ground floor, entrance hallway, large open plan kitchen - dining lounge, with French doors leading out onto the South facing terrace and overlooking the lake, a large living room used as an office and library at the moment, with direct access into the garage.1st floor 4 bedrooms and a toilet. House two is a newly built property that's just about to be completed and requires final cladding externally and comprises a large open plan lounge-kitchen-dining room with 3 sets of French doors out onto the terrace, 2 double bedrooms, a bathroom and a toilet. The property sits in an isolated position surrounded by approx 4 hectares of land and a lake of 5 hectares, it even has its own paintball park, which would be ideal for combining fishing and camping side by side and this property is a must to view to really appreciate how rare this is and what it has to offer.                            Including fees of 5% to be paid by of the purchaser. Price excluding fees 800 000 €.
