Private Wing of a Historic Hôtel Particulier on the Ramparts of Angoulême

Located on the historic Ramparts of Angoulême in the heart of southwestern France, this remarkable property forms the private wing of an elegant 16th-century hôtel particulier. Offering approximately 320 sq m (3,444 sq ft) of living accommodation, the residence enjoys a privileged south-facing position with exceptional natural light and panoramic views across the picturesque Anguienne Valley.
The house is arranged over two beautifully proportioned levels featuring elegant reception rooms, refined living spaces, an inviting dining room with open-plan kitchen and three bedrooms. Original architectural details have been carefully preserved, including Louis XIII and Louis XV fireplaces, exposed timber beams, period panelling, traditional terracotta floors and dressed limestone walls, creating interiors of timeless elegance and authenticity.
Complementing the principal residence is an impressive atelier with ceiling heights approaching 3.8 metres, a rare 16th-century boutique with independent access from behind, two garages and a magnificent vaulted cellar of approximately 70 sq m, still connected to an original stone staircase concealed beneath the flagstone floor.
Extensively improved in recent years, the property benefits from a fully renewed roof, handcrafted timber double-glazed windows, upgraded insulation, modern gas heating, a refurbished kitchen and contemporary bathrooms, successfully combining centuries of architectural heritage with modern comfort.
A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional historic residence in Angoulême, perfectly suited as a distinguished family home, artist's residence, gallery, private office or prestigious French heritage property.
