This magnificent, beautifully renovated charantaise longere is situated on the edge of the popular village of Villefagnan and has glorious unbroken views over its ground and the surrounding countryside. It is approached through imposing gates and along a treelined driveway and is surrounded by 1.72ha of beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds with pond, vegetable garden and manicured lawns as well as the superb 11x5m in-ground pool with large covered terrace.

In addition there are further attic rooms and an attached barn as well as an integral garage/workshop and a lovely traditional vaulted cellar. The property has been maintained to a very high standard and benefits from central heating, double-glazing throughout and fibre internet connections

The stunning property is a hewn of rural tranquility yet is within walking distance of basic amenities in Villefagnan whilst the larger market town of Ruffec is just 15 mins drive away and the cities of Poitiers with its TGV and intl. airport and Angoulême are both less than an hours drive..

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.
The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.
This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £26,378 more.
