House buy in Vouvant Pays de la Loire

This pretty 3 bedroom cottage sits within a converted Monastery in the centre of the delightful market town of Vouvant. The property has a private roof terrace and courtyard as well as communal pool and 6 acres of private riverside grounds. The shops and restaurants in Vouvant are a few minutes walk. 'Le Monastere' was converted into a series of cottages and apartments in 2004. The conversion has kept much of the original character of the ancient building, whilst introducing a bit of contemporary luxury. The complex has an excellent reputation locally and properties here don't come up for sale very often. The accommodation is spacious and light and set out over 2 floors. The sitting room is dual aspect with a window and double doors onto the courtyard on one side and two large windows looking out onto the street on the other. Upstairs there is a large window on the landing which offers beautiful views of the church.
