Charmingly stylish, with amazing views , this 4 bedroom house is ideally situated in the heart of the village.

It is the perfect spot for stay-cation , work from home or a short or long term getaway. In the southern Charente, AUBETERRE, former stronghold is now classified as one France's prettiest villages.

The 220m2 house is full of character and has been renovated keeping the core of architectural details yet including all modern amenities.

As you walk in the house you are met by the fragrance of yesterday, today and tomorrow…It is a fresh combination of beautiful pieces, that the owner has collected over the years, reflecting her love for vintage,antiques and quirky pieces.

Terra Alba features 4 bedrooms(sleeps 8/10).

The top floor bedroom with its thick stone walls and original wooden beams features 1 king size bed and 2 twin beds and is ideal for a family. It has an en suite bathroom and a separate toilet.
