The new properties for sale
In the Charente
Maritime department, half an hour from the
stunning Atlantic coast, Surgères is a
pretty medieval walled town, which has retained
all its authenticity and which lives year
round. Our new project is a small residential
development, on the edge of the town and within
minutes’ drive from the market square.
The location is very flat and it is possible to
cycle or walk to the shops. The development
offers a selection of one storey houses of
traditional architecture. The houses which
range from two to three bedrooms offer well
laid out family accommodation and benefit from
a private garden and garage. The specification
includes the latest energy efficiency standard
and the properties are built for minimal
maintenance. Surgères is a
sought after location and the properties are
designed to meet the requirements of a range of
potential buyers, from local residents to
foreign purchasers, at extremely competitive
prices.
The area
The town of Surgères is truly
delightful with many points of medieval
interest and natural beauty. The small streets
are lined with historical buildings and elegant
ancient houses which are all well preserved.
The place is kept in pristine condition with
colourful flowerbeds and lawned public gardens.
The town offers an excellent range of shops and
fine boutiques and a good selection of
restaurants. The superb beaches of the Atlantic
coast are only half an hour’s drive away
and there is also a well appointed outdoor
swimming pool in Surgères itself.
Inland you will find golf, horse riding,
cycling, rambling, tennis and the pretty Charente River. Access to
Surgères is
easy. The town has a TGV station which enables
easy commuting on Eurostar and budget
airlines Ryanair,
Flybe and Easyjet have regular
flights to La Rochelle airport (25 miles).
