Villa for sale in Moussac, Vienne, Nouvelle-Aquitaine

This house would make a perfect lock-up and leave holiday home or bolt hole, but if you have the opportunity to spend longer periods of time here, it would be a very easy and pleasurable house to live in.

From the front door you come directly into the sitting room (approx. 28m2) with gorgeous stone chimney piece with the large wood-burner, glazed door directly on to the garden behind the house, and a really nice exposed stone wall containing a built-in bookcase. To the right is the kitchen (approx. 9m2) which is also accessible from the front through glazed french windows. The kitchen has fitted units and a gas hob with extractor fan above, electric oven and a stainless steel sink. Behind the kitchen is the utility room (approx. 3.3m2) containing the hot water heater, another stainless steel sink, plumbing for the washing machine and a loo.

The staircase to the first floor leads out of the sitting room and brings you up to the landing (approx. 4m2); the lovely bathroom (approx.6m2) which boasts a bath, a basin and a separate shower. The toilet (approx. 1.5m2) is separate with a little basin. The first bedroom (approx.9.3) has a single glazed window over the back garden and an electric radiator. The second bedroom (approx. 9.3m2) has a double glazed window to the front of the house. The third bedroom (approx.9.5) also has a double glazed window to the front and it in an L-shape giving the space for a double bed and a desk.

The garden is approximately 390m2 and is mostly lawn, although there is a good square at the back which used to be a kitchen garden, which would be great if you'd like to grow your own organic vegetables.

The centre of the village is 2.5 km away, so a lovely half hour walk to the popular canoe-kayak centre on the banks of the river Vienne. There are lovely walks in the countryside in every direction. The nearest supermarkets are in l'Isle Jourdain, 5 km from the house, as well as a lovely traditional market and a good selection of restaurants and cafés, water sports on the river including water skiing and wakeboarding, tree climbing, bungee jumping off the stunning viaduct, a zip-wire across the river under the viaduct and a lovely outdoor swimming pool.

The nearest cities are Poitiers (50km) and Limoges (80km) if you need a bit of city life.

If you prefer to drive rather than fly, Caen is 436 km (about 41⁄2 hours driving time) and Calais is about 673 km (about 71⁄4 hours driving time)
