Lovely Restored farmhouse with New Pool in Saint-Quantin-de-Rançanne, Charente Maritime
This charming property is over two hundred years old and has retained much of its character and has some original features including beams, stonework and fireplaces. It stands in a secluded end of hamlet position with no passing traffic. It's dog friendly with a decent sized fenced garden.
It's conveniently located just one kilometre from the nearest village shop which sells fresh bread.
Thirty minute drive to lovely sandy beaches and picturesque yachting harbours (Mortagne) with excellent restaurants. There are many places to visit including the Roman town of Saintes with its amphitheatre, set on the Charente river where you can hire small motor boats.
Explore the weekly market in Pons And Gemozac. Larger monthly market in Gemozac, but lots of markets and brocantes all over the region.
