LICHEN

Completely renovated in 2011, the historic house's volumes were redesigned to emphasize open-plan spaces. The original features, including a fireplace, central staircase, and period parquet floors, subtly blend with the contemporary feel of the space. The large, floor-to-ceiling window in the living room provides a view of the terrace and garden. It provides soft, through-lighting that brings brightness and warmth to the living spaces at different times of the day. The open-plan but set-back kitchen features a fixed section and a sliding door that opens directly onto the terrace. The living room area is centered around a beautiful Saintonge stone fireplace. On the first floor, two bedrooms, one with old parquet flooring and a decorative fireplace, benefit from high ceilings and a family bathroom with shower and bathtub. On the top floor, two attic bedrooms lit by skylights share a shower room. A very large garage, suitable for parking the family's car and bicycles, completes this property.
