2 bedrooms House for sale in Condom

The lock-keeper's cottage. If only it were still a viable profession when living here was one of the perks of the job! With 4 acres of wonderful riverside parkland, huge, light-filled rooms and plenty of original features, obviously some redecoration required, but this could be something really special.

The key part of lock keeper's job was to guide the Armagnac traders safely through the locks with their precious cargo, making sure not a single drop of the amber liquid was lost:.. a very important role indeed! The house is in good structural condition and, whilst wallpaper on the ceiling is now somewhat out of fashion, it doesn't need too much imagination to envisage the transformation a relatively simple make-over could have.

There are 4 bedrooms, 3 of which are 30m2! The Sitting room and dining room are both generous in size, light and both have dual aspect doors that open out onto the east and west terraces.

Arranged across three floors, there is a total 181m2 habitable space. Here's the layout:

Ground floor

Kitchen - 12m2

Sitting room - 27.5m2 - French doors to east terrace, sliding doors to west terrace

Dining room - 32m2 - French doors to both east and west terrace. Open fireplace

Shower room with basin and WC

First floor

Bedroom 1 - 29.5m2 - french doors to west balcony

Bedroom 2 - 12.5m2 - opportunity to create a family bathroom

Outside

Beyond the east and west terraces, there is over 4 acres of beautiful parkland that runs down to the river that was such a key element of the Armagnac trade all those years ago. The main part of the garden is fenced and gated. There is also a garage/workshop of 35m2. If you love fishing, swimming, dipping or just watching the world go by, this is a magical place to relax and take it easy.
