Former 19th century school rehabilitated

Located in the heart of a village approximately 25 km from La Rochelle and 13 minutes from Surgères, this former school and town hall have been completely redesigned to become a living space of approximately 170 m2 of living space (which could reach 200 m2 upon completion of the work). of the third bedroom). The old school of 70 m2 could also increase this area. Organized in a U, the property gives the place a family cocoon feel with, in its center, the old tree-lined playground of approximately 400 m2 converted into a lawn and terrace. On one side, the old town hall and the mistress’s house form the current residence. The municipal school closes the bottom of the plot while communicating with the house. And finally, like a guardian of time, the courtyard housing an old school bench and the outdoor dining area faces the house. Once in the garden, the entrance is through the living room of approximately 48 m2, very bright, where a Godin stove warms the living room, enhanced by the wooden spiral staircase, whose colors echo the beams exposed wood. As an extension, the kitchen/dining room (which was the former mistress’s accommodation) benefits from a beautiful open fireplace and a large opening onto the terrace, facing south. Continuing on the ground floor, the old canteen has been converted into an office area, with a pantry and a large bedroom of approximately 30 m2 with its own bathroom. The rest of the sleeping area is on the first floor of the house with a large, bright bedroom with an extraordinary volume. The landing then serves the bathroom, toilet, and the potential third bedroom. This space, which remains to be completed, can accommodate a master suite of approximately 32 m2. The advantage of the house lies in the old classroom of 70 m2 which currently serves as a sports hall but which remains to be reinvented. It can be converted into several bedrooms, cinema room, games room, library, reception room… the potential is great. This room with aluminum openings and new roof is connected to the house. Its authenticity, its charm, and its unique configuration make it a truly atypical home. To the east, the town of Surgères and its TGV station is accessible in 10 minutes. To the west, Châtelaillon beach is only 20 minutes away!
