EXCLUSIVITY. In a peaceful hamlet within the commune of Bouhet, just 25 minutes from La Rochelle, discover this magnificent 17th-century farmhouse, entirely redesigned and meticulously renovated by an architect and the renowned Compagnons d’Angers. Blending the charm of heritage architecture with modern comfort, this residence of approximately 110 m² offers a warm atmosphere and timeless elegance. A prestige renovation defines this unique property: every detail has been carefully crafted using noble materials — Burgundy stone floors, bespoke joinery, artisan stained glass, and an authentic stone fireplace with its period character beautifully preserved. The layout is fluid and functional, combining contemporary comfort with historical charm. On the ground floor, a cosy living space features an open-plan kitchen and dining area, preceding an intimate lounge with a stone fireplace. Upstairs, you will find two bright bedrooms, including a master suite with an elegant modern shower room and toilet. The property also enjoys a privileged setting. The tree-lined plot offers complete privacy, with the potential to add a swimming pool and extend by approximately 30 m², all while enjoying unobstructed views of the surrounding countryside. Close to shops and schools, with quick access to La Rochelle, Surgères (TGV station), and Rochefort, this property is ideal as a peaceful main residence, a charming second home, or a high-end holiday or artistic retreat. More than just a house, this Cottage is an invitation to serenity — a place where the authenticity of stone meets the comfort of modern living. A true coup de cœur: rare, ready to move in, and nestled in the heart of the Charente countryside, just a short drive from La Rochelle and the Île de Ré.
