Charming Property And Its Secret House Inspired By Pompei

Property summary

Located between Tours and Poitiers, this property with Tuscan charm transports us into a parallel universe. Extending on a plot of 3.5 hectares and surrounded by an old Roman fortress, the property includes a main house and a set of buildings (various outbuildings and barns, towers, dovecote, undergrounds, chapel in ruins, wine cellar?).
The main house is an old farmhouse built in the 1830s. It has been completely renovated with taste and offers on the ground floor two bedrooms of more than 30 m2 with fireplace and a bathroom with authentic charm. Upstairs, the open kitchen on the living room offers a living space of 60 m2 with a generous light and beautiful beams. A third big room, a bathroom and a big attic complete this level.
This first house is surrounded by several barns and outbuildings, some are already furnished, others are to be reinterpreted. An underground house is also hidden in the estate. Access to this secret house is via a spiral staircase nestled at the top of a terrace disguised as ruins. This unusual house with incredible potential was inspired by Pompeii and Herculaneum. It has been designed to accommodate a four-leaf clover-shaped living room, kitchen, wine cellar, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, one with a sunken bath in a building designed as an igloo.
A key-shaped pool was built in the heart of this space as the central piece of the puzzle. The work of this underground house is to finish but plumbing and electricity are already on site.
The property is full of fruit trees, cypresses and truffle oaks and enjoys panoramic views of the rolling countryside.
This house steeped in history and full of mysteries is 2 hours from Paris (Châtellerault Tgv station is 30 minutes by car) can be transformed into a spa hotel but also a guest house, or a family property.
