EXCLUSIVE TO ESPACES ATYPIQUES. In the heart of Saint-Loup-Lamairé, a medieval village in the Deux-Sèvres department nestled between the Loire Valley and the Marais Poitevin, this characterful property enjoys a prime location on the corner of the pedestrian street, opposite the church. Formerly the Seneschal's House, dating back to the 15th century, it is listed as a Historic Monument. Behind its half-timbered facade, this residence, offering approximately 240 sq m of living space, retains numerous traces of its history. The ground floor exudes an authentic atmosphere with a charming living room, complete with a fireplace adorned with the coat of arms of the Lords of Dercé, a reminder of the property's rich past. Adjoining this is the eat-in kitchen, which captivates with its old-world charm, wooden furnishings, and generous proportions, perfect for entertaining. An office, which could easily be converted into an additional bedroom, and a laundry room complete this level. A stone spiral staircase leads to the first floor, which houses three elegant bedrooms with preserved period features, enhanced by French-style ceilings and original parquet flooring. Two of these bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms, while a separate bathroom completes this floor. The second floor, requiring complete renovation, offers numerous possibilities for development and provides access to the dovecote, suggesting the potential for creating new living spaces. In the basement, several rooms add to the main living area and offer generous storage space. At the rear, a secluded courtyard invites you to enjoy sunny days, while a separate garden bordering the river provides a peaceful and verdant setting. A garage also complements the property.
