Full Description
Between the Dordogne and Gironde regions, this sumptuously decorated 17th-century château, set in the heart of a 12-hectare estate, with guest houses and outbuildings, is perfect for a wide range of projects, from winegrowing and horse-riding to wedding venue and boutique style accommodation, to name just a few of the many possibilities on offer.
The château, set in a dominant position, is beautifully laid out on two levels, with silk-covered walls and sublime hand-painted murals and friezes.
The ground floor comprises an entrance hall with stone stairway leading to the first floor, living room, library, kitchen, dining room and toilet. The first floor comprises a sitting room and three bedrooms, each with an en-suite shower room. The sitting room could be reconfigured as a fourth bedroom.
There are also three guest houses, part of a wing adjoining the main building, two of which have a living room, kitchen, bedroom and en-suite shower room, and a third with a similar layout but including 3 bedrooms. These annexes are finished in the same style as the château, again with a marked elegance in the choice of materials and decor. Each accommodation has a covered terrace and a spa.
A caretaker's cottage adjoining the west side of the château completes the living quarters.
To enhance your days in this sumptuous setting, a complex dedicated to relaxation is at your disposal, with an 11m x 5m heated swimming pool in the centre and annexes including changing rooms, showers, a massage room and a reception room at the sides.
For those who prefer to stroll, the gardens and its fountain located at the crossroads of the paths, the olive grove, the vines and the meadows offer a charming and authentic setting for a walk or horse ride.
If you wish to pursue a wine-growing activity, the land includes vines, but a discussion could take place for any purchaser preferring land in the nature of meadowland, with additional plots available. For the vineyard, you will find farm buildings as well as a wine-making cellar, a tasting room and other function rooms, to name just a few of the spaces, which can also accommodate a variety of projects.
An exceptional estate in a unique and refined setting between Saint Emilion and Bergerac. A must-see!
