Stunning 17th Century 4-Bedroom Village house with Barn, garden and Loft Conversion Potential

This beautifully restored four-bedroom property, dating back to the 1600s, is ideally located in the heart of the vibrant town of Saint-Séverin, on the Charente–Dordogne border. Featuring exposed stone walls, original wooden floors, and double glazing throughout, the house seamlessly blends historic character with modern comfort.

The beautifully restored church regularly hosts concerts, and the surrounding countryside provides excellent opportunities for walking and outdoor pursuits.
