Historic and beautifully presented 10 bedroom stone built manor house, part of which dates back to the late 14th and early 15th Centuries, although it is thought that the origins of a dwelling in this location go back to Roman times.
With an extension with a new facade, which was constructed in the Renaissance period, and which is further enhanced by the stunning wisteria, the property is a site where battles have been planned over the centuries, from well before the French Revolution through until WW2, where it became an important part of the local Resistance. It is even thought that Prince Henry stayed in the house before he became King Henry IV.
Nowadays the property is much more peaceful, set in a countryside location just outside a lively village around 30 kilometres from Bergerac with its international airport.
Renovations in the manor house are well underway, with double/triple glazed windows and underfloor heating keeping running costs low. The renovations have been undertaken with great care to maintain original features, including numerous fireplaces dating from medieval times through to Louis XVI.
The ground floor has a double height kitchen with Godin cooker and stone sinks. The gallery is being used as a sunny dining room, overlooking the terrace that used to be a courtyard in the past. The main salon and a study has been renovated and an additional reception room is next on the list.
On the first floor, there is further work to be done to create 2 further large bedrooms with dressing rooms and bathrooms.
The vast attic gives further options for more rooms if required.
The building is not classified as a Monument Historique, so further development is possible.
The guest annexe has been used as a gite and is renovated to excellent modern standards with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and a large living dining room.
In addition a large barn, found between the manor house and the gite, provides further opportunity for development.
Outside is a formal terrace area witha well, gardens around the buildings, a swimming pool and over 2 hectares of mainly pasture land, including a moat and a shelter for horses.
